John Carroll Returns! July 27, Kemptville Street Piano

After a warm reception at last year’s Street Piano Concert Series, local favourite John Carroll is back for an afternoon at the Street Piano. Always entertaining, this witty gritty teller of pithy yarns will woo you with his banter while his skilled finger-style and slide guitar playing will charm and cheer you for hours! A true professional and gentleman of the genre, don’t miss this gem of a show as John combines originals with covers performed with the ol’ Carroll twist. Whether he’s playing solo for the packed house of his weekly Chateau Lafayette gig, doing some (finger) picking on Sundays at Rideau Pines Farm, or traveling to the many music houses across Canada, John’s music treats his audiences to “the vibrational equivalent of coming home.”.

What is a Street Piano? It’s a piano placed in a public area that encourages passersby to stop and play.

Why a Street Piano? Who is it for? Street Pianos draw pedestrians, turning any location into a concert venue / cultural hub. By giving residents an instrument to play together, this project encourages locals to share their knowledge, initiate their own ‘play’, and create relationships, setting a precedent for positive experiences in Kemptville’s public spaces and inviting foot traffic to downtown businesses. Learn more about street pianos at http://www.streetpianos.com/.

When and where are the concerts taking place? This year the concert series takes place rain or shine on Saturday afternoons at 1pm from June to the end of August on the North Grenville Public Library terrace. The library is wheelchair accessible, with air-conditioned bathrooms and free parking. Need special accommodations to enjoy the show? Contact Lisa Poushinsky at [email protected]. Dogs on leashes welcome!

The series is graciously funded by the Municipality of North Grenville and the Government of Canada.
