“We are really excited about our line up for 2025-26. These artists will appeal to a range of musical tastes, with folk, blues, and celtic influences. Some of the artists are well-established and some are up-and-comers whose talents are sure to take them places”, says Artistic Director Sue Shikaze. “We pride ourselves in presenting high quality performances and introducing our audience to artists that showcase a diversity of great Canadian talent. I think people know that Folk Society shows are a great night of live music, representing a broad range of genres.”
The series opens on September 27, with Sandra Bouza and her band. Sandra is a voice of power and passion, with songs that touch your heart and fuel your soul. Performing a mix of folk and rhythm and blues it will be a concert to remember. She was the 2019 winner of the Toronto Blues Society’s Talent Search and was nominated for 2025 Contemporary Album of the Year by the Canadian Folk Music Awards. She has a special connection to the Haliburton Highlands. She participated in the Halls Island Artist Residency where she wrote most of her latest album, A Sound in the Dark on Koshlong Lake.
Mimi O’Bonsawin, performing on October 25, is a contemporary roots singer-songwriter born in Northeastern Ontario and is mixed French Canadian & Abenaki, a member of Odanak First-Nation. Through her rhythm and story-driven songs, Mimi’s music embraces the beauty of the Land. The ethereal quality of her music whisks you away with uplifting melodies and introspective lyrics that weave pop sensibilities with acoustic instruments. The layers of percussion and surprising harmonies make you feel the music rather than just hear it.
On January 31, 2026, the Folk Society is excited to present Union Duke. Union Duke is two fifths country, two fifths city, and one fifth whiskey. They have been described as a raucous collision of alt-rock and twang, bringing crowds to their feet with songs from the heart and with an abundance of soaring harmonies, driving rhythm, and infectious enthusiasm.
Blending sixth sense harmonies with sun-dappled folk-rock reminiscent of the late ’60s and early ’70s, Minor Gold are an award-winning duo led by vocalists and guitarists Dan Parsons (AUS) & Tracy McNeil (CAN). With a trademark groove and an undeniable stage chemistry their music floats you down long desert highways and coastal canyons. They will be performing on April 18, 2026.
The series wraps up with Jessica Pearson and the East Wind on May 30, 2026. Like sirens calling from an ancient shore, the haunting three-part harmonies of this trio will bind you in a timeless folkloric spell. Alchemizing roots, classic country, Americana and Celtic soundscapes, the trio spin tales of outlaw heroics, matriarchal power, resistance and resilience, and the unrelenting beauty of becoming who you are.
