A Canadian songstress has a concert at the River Run Centre on Feb. 14 that the centre describes as ideal for Valentine’s Day.
“Hopelessly romantic jazz chanteuse Jill Barber,” who has just released a new album in French titled Chansons, will perform at 8 p.m. on the main stage. “While she writes and performs her own original songs, Barber’s style offers a nostalgic nod to a bygone era,” a news release said. “Weaving a musical spell that is unmistakably fresh and contemporary, her music captures the best of Edith Piaf, Ella Fitzgerald and the golden age of jazz.” For tickets, call 519-763-3000 or visit riverrun.ca. Post-secondary students can buy $20 tickets, and high-school students can buy $5 eyeGO tickets.
