I'm still working on going through all the digital photographs that I took at the Springfest. There will be a few more postings here on my blog over the next week or two as I get around to going through them all. There were two artists that played later on Friday evening that we quite enjoyed. The first was duo called Over the Moon. They are a couple, from Longview, and were really entertaining, not only with their music, but also with their commentary and the rapport they had with the audience. The guide described them as follows...
Canadian roots/swing duo Over the Moon's Suzanne Levesque and Craig Bignell are award winning multi-instrumentalists/vocalists whose music is a wild ride from 40's sounding swing and Appalachian old-time, to cowboy blues. Simple and sweet, all of their material has a common thread that speaks of the Canadian west.
At the end of the evening a young guy played solo. I seem to recall that he was from Innisfail... or at least some town in that part of central Alberta. He was an awesome guitarist and did a great job of playing despite the fact that he didn't have a band with him. His write up in the guide went like this...
Devin Cooper is an award-winning Bluesy Rock 'N Country artist. Cooper's sound creatively blends influences from country, blues and rock and roll. His live shows are guaranteed to deliver with raw storytelling lyrics and killer guitar licks that provide a dynamic performance.
