Riverfest is coming here on Sept. 17 at 7:30PM to Bissell Park.
Danny Michel and the Little Band will perform.
Michel is an innovator and an independent artist demonstrating that creativity in the digital age can build a successful relationship with fans.
He gained publicity in 2008 for making the tracks of his hit single Feather, Fur & Fin available to remix and then posting fans’ versions on his website. The same song recently won the David Suzuki Playlist for the Planet contest.
For his birthday last year, Michel offered his entire catalogue of music free for download for the day – and again on July 1, the anniversary of Sunset Sea.
He predicts the future for music is about to get very exciting.
Riverfest has invited KippElora, Stonehammer Beer, and Peeley Island Wines to round out the service for the night.
A portion of the proceeds will go to a group of citizens working towards building Elora’s first outdoor venue.
Advance tickets to Riverfest are $20, and are available from Santé at 130 Metcalfe Street, Elora, or Ground Floor Music in Guelph, 13 Quebec Street. The show runs, rain or shine, under a big tent.
Guests are asked to bring their own chairs.
