"The Queen of Vancouver Island" returns after a long absence! The JUNO nominated, Canadian singer songwriter Carolyn Mark is embarking on an Ontario tour with a stop in Guelph. Part of her set will include songs from her latest album Off Season, released February 2023. She has recorded with numerous Canadian bands, as a solo performer, part of a duo (The Corn Sisters) with American Neko Case and shared the stage with The Waco Brothers, Joel Plaskett, The Handsome Family, NQ Arbuckle and The Sadies to name a few. Ms Mark has toured extensively over the years performing across Canada, the United States, the UK, Norway, and Italy.
"Really there’s no roots-country chanteuse as engaging as Mark, whose well-intentioned banter is capable of making even the sourest puss at a show crack a smile."- Exclaim!
With her sultry and powerful voice, her sassy and commanding stage presence, and a repertoire that blends country, rock n’ roll and blues, Ginger St. James stands out as one of Canada’s most exciting performers. She won Female Vocalist of the Year at the 2015 Hamilton Music Awards and is the Winner of the 2020 Grand River Blues Society "Road to Memphis" International Blues Challenge.
