Great Big Sea
March 18, 2011 at 8pm
The critically-acclaimed, Canadian folk-rock band Great Big Sea fuses traditional Newfoundland music with modern pop in a crowd-pleasing formula that is both heartfelt and vital. A pure force of nature – much like the ocean surge they take their name from – Great Big Sea's blend of instruments like mandolin, bodhran, fiddle and concertina, along with their vocal harmonies, revels in the melodies they create and the Newfoundland folk tunes they love. The Group is best known for performing energetic rock interpretations of traditional Newfoundland folk songs including sea shanties, which draw from the island's 500-year-old Irish, English, and French heritage. All of their albums are certified gold or platinum and their most recent album, The Hard and the Easy, was nominated for a 2006 Juno award (Canada’s equivalent to a Grammy).
