WT Annex 1110 Wealthy St. SE J Oscar & Ralston BowlesIn a“GRFAS Heritage Season” ConcertFriends and musical compatriots for over 30 years – Ralston & J Oscar will represent the tradition of original songs that go deep, yet bring uplift. “In addition, as these two continue to push the envelope with their music, they are also tireless proponents of musical community building – which is at the core of why the Grand River Folk Arts Society was created and founded in 1975.” J Oscar & Ralston will play tunes to set moods while singing stories of today, yesterday and tomorrow – a few you can sing along to. They will likely tell a few winding tales – expect a bit of verbal mischief and other good craic. More information |

116 S Jackson St 616-678-3618 If you think it’s been a while since you’ve seen me playing anywhere (like most of 2016 and a fair amount of 2015 as well), you’d be right. Health issues that affected my voice – plus moving house – took me out of the game most of last year. I hope to change that in 2017. If you’re nearby, come out and see if I still have any of “it” – I’ll be interested to know, too 🙂 |
