“A talented indie-folk songwriter! Watch for her” – Tony King, CKUA Radio

– Stuart Muir, New Moon Folk Club
Lethbridge Folk Clubs’ Prairie Folk Sessions presents Abigayle Oakley with John Hewitt on February 25th, 2026, at Analog Books.
From Las Vegas to Nashvegas, Abigayle Oakley blends the melodic richness of folk pioneers with the lyrical honesty of today’s confessional singer-songwriters.
Her songs explore the complexities of life and the existential questions that shape us, often with a sharp, tongue-in-cheek wit that adds layers of humour and insight. Abigayle is a recent winner of the Kerrville New Folk Competition and has played hundreds of shows in the US and Canada, opening for acts such as The War and Treaty, Jed and The Valentine, Forest Blakk and more. When not writing, practicing, or performing, you can find Abigayle hiking the beautiful hills of Tennessee
With artfully crafted songs, masterful musicianship and humbled authenticity, John Hewitt is the full package and the real deal. John’s natural ability to tell a story through song, combined with his down to earth welcoming of the audience into his world, are just two of the many noteworthy qualities that will ensure the continued success and longevity of his career. Well known for his Band John Hewitt and the Americans. John has produced and toured several ‘Lives and Times’ series including Gordon Lightfoot and Jim Croce.
The song craft of John Hewitt is spot on. He not only tells a story but also does so in an engaging way with complementary lyrics, melody, and arrangements. Basically John is a hardworking artist that pays attention to all the details of his presentation and audiences loved it!
Doors open at 6:30 PM
