$40.00 Per Person (19+)

A modern indie folk trio from Newfoundland, The Once have collected a trio of Canadian Folk Music Awards, numerous ECMA awards, and was named Artist of the Year by the Newfoundland & Labrador Arts Council. They have earned not one, but two JUNO nominations for Roots Album of the Year and continue to take their music around the world.

The group formed in the tiny ex-fishing village of Trinity, Newfoundland and 'the once' means 'imminently, but not necessarily so' in local vernacular. “We wanted something that would embody who we are, where we’re from, and would elicit a smirk and a nod amongst Newfoundlanders back home but would forever require an explanation literally anywhere elsewhere” Andrew Dale offers. It is a story well worth explaining.
