On Sunday, Joe Hill Coffee House goes all out once again with these five fine acts:

• Astrojet – Rupert Keiller’s new band, in their first public performance. (They just won Best Rock Song at the Kootenay Music Awards.) Their roots run deep, their sound is big. Watch out!

• Rossland Ukulele Choir – Singing, strumming, a crowd of happy musicians. Fun!

• Hannah Dueck – Acoustic bluegrass and folk, with meaning and a great voice.

• Michael Gifford – Sweet songs from back when. (Love always wins).

• Ucra Mountain String Band – Ian Johnston and friends from the Foggy Goggle Boys. Rhythm, harmony, slick mandolin, lots of energy.

As ever, the Coffee House is in the Rossland Legion, 2081 Washington Street. It’s a family-friendly venue – lots of goodies and happiness, no bar.

Admission is $3 – kept affordable by an all-volunteer crew, and the generosity of the Rossland Legion. Proceeds from Joe Hill Coffee House help support the Rossland Council for Arts and Culture; proceeds from sale of goodies help support the Gold Fever Follies.

Doors open at 6:30 p.m.; the show starts at 7 p.m.

Joe Hill Coffee House is always looking for new performers – young and old, beginners or polished. All welcome; no auditions. It’s where you can relax and perform for the best audience anywhere. For more information contact Les Carter at les@rosslandrange.org, 250-362-5677.
