Magnolia Buckskin delivers a vibrant and humorous show with original arrangements that are refreshing and poignant. \n\n\n\nAs a band\, they have worked with the Foothills Acoustic Music Institute (FAMI)\, overseeing harmony and vocal-improv workshops and teaching banjo\, accordion and mandolin\, have led workshops at Calgary’s Ukulele Festival\, and taught at Wellspring Alberta\, a charity that offers programming for people living with cancer. \n\n\n\n“I kind of think of it as a pond\,” says Sayer. “You put into the pond\, you can’t just keep taking out of the pond.

When he was a long yearling\, his parents moved to the Porcupine Hills of Alberta\, about 130 miles to the north\, and he has lived there pretty much the rest of his life\, ranching and living the cowboy lifestyle that dominates his songwriting. \n\n\n\n\nHe spent his working life running the SN Ranch\, a cow/calf operation near Claresholm where he still lives. Semi-retired now he finds more time for music activity and performs either solo or with a duo or in a bluegrass band. Hopefully there are a few more songs rattling around underneath his hat waiting to be born.

It was startling\, I started writing.” \n\n\n\nLiving in the Millarville area\, Alberta\, ten years after releasing the ‘Redtail Flyer’ album\, Leanne has released Still Knowing in February 2025.  A collection of 10 songs.  Bringing her smoke-laced vocals and timeless writing to the forefront\, her new tracks harness the many influences of her early years and temper them with the life lessons that come with the profoundly joyous and sorrowful experiences of a life lived in the pursuit of personal truths\, art\, passion\, and being human. \n\n\n\nA Story Steeped in Sound\, Reid & Writes is a group of seasoned musicians that plays original songs along with tasty covers. \n\n\n\nMusic is heartfelt\, melodic\, rhythmic and dynamic.

I liked this a lot.” – Norman Darwen \n\n\n\n— Blues In The South Magazine\, England\, 2023.” \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Lethbridge Folk Club presents The John Ritherford Trio with Papa King opening. \n\n\n\nGrowing up in Toronto in the 60’s and 70’s John Rutherford first laid hands on a guitar at age 10\, and at 16 told his guitar teacher he wanted to play some of the popular rock songs of the day. Rutherford was told “if you want to play rock ’n’ roll you’ll have to learn the blues” \n\n\n\nLessons were spent digging into classic blues guitar recordings\, studying the rhythm\, feel and form of the music. Rutherford took his homework seriously swinging by Sam the Record Man on Yonge Street each week to purchase whatever blues album they’d been working with. This process spawned both a passion for the sound of the blues but also a sprawling record collection. Rutherford’s blues library and his earliest influences began with works by John Mayall\, Buddy Guy\, Taj Mahal\, Johnny Winter\, Hubert Sumlin\, T-Bone Walker\, Otis Rush\,  Freddie\, Albert and BB King. Rutherford never learned those rock songs of the day\, he stuck with the blues. \n\n\n\nMaintaining a long running residency at Calgary’s current home of the blues\, The Blues Can\, Rutherford performs solo shows and routinely rocks the house with his blues trio while honing his signature guitar sound and storytelling songwriting style. \n\n\n\n\nRutherford’s solo career began with the release of the 2010 LP Echo Broadcast which reached #1 on the Alberta public broadcaster CKUA top 30 chart and received glowing reviews internationally. The leap to branch out on his own blossomed into appearances at clubs\, concert venues and major music festivals across Canada. \n\n\n\nAdding to a long list of projects\, accomplishments and career milestones Rutherford is pleased to announce the release of his latest EP in 2023 entitled Midnight Microphone. \n\n\n\nProduced by legendary guitarist Tim Williams\, and joined by Thom Moon on drums and Bill Price on bass the new songs express Rutherford’s will to push the blues form beyond traditions or expectations in a search of his own honest connection to the feel and power of the music. \n\n\n\n“Papa” King Cole is a solid\, hard-working Albertan who has supported his family as a class 1 truck driver by day and singer/songwriter musician by night. \n\n\n\nHis music and songs reflect the life he lives and observes.\n\n\n\nDriven with love and passion\, this is music for all ages.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHis original songs all engage with his audiences\, and they leave with a good taste in their soul. \n\n\n\nMusic is heartfelt\, melodic\, rhythmic and dynamic. Various styles make each song unique. Lyrics drawn from personal experience and Alberta landscapes convey universal themes. \n\n\n\nDoors open at 6:30 PM \n\n\n\nReturn Policy URL:https://lethbridgefolkclub.ca/event/john-rutherford-trio/ LOCATION:Army Navy Air Force Club (ANAVETS)\, 517 - 5 Ave South\, Lethbridge\, Alberta\, T1J 0T9\, Canada CATEGORIES:Concert ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://lethbridgefolkclub.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/meta_eyJzcmNCdWNrZXQiOiJiemdsZmlsZXMifQ-3.webp END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Edmonton:20260213T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Edmonton:20260213T210000 DTSTAMP:20260421T154730 CREATED:20260201T214257Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260201T214300Z UID:5698-1771009200-1771016400@lethbridgefolkclub.ca SUMMARY:Open Stage DESCRIPTION:Join us for our open stage February 13\, 2026\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLethbridge Folk Club OPEN STAGE\n\n\n\nAlways on the 2nd Friday of the month September until May.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOur Open Stage Nights continue. \n\n\n\nJoin us to sing\, play\, hone your musical skills or just come and listen. \n\n\n\nAll are welcome to the Lethbridge Folk Club’s ‘Open Stage’ evenings\, where we host local performing musicians and poets at McKillop United Church Hall: 2329 15th Avenue South\, Lethbridge\, Alberta \n\n\n\nLethbridge Folk Club will provide you with a stage with sound facilities at no cost so that you can perform some of your own music\, music you have borrowed\, or poetry of your choice.

Watch for her” – Tony King\, CKUA Radio \n\n\n\n“Have you ever gone from “Who is this musician?” To “WHO is the musician?!!?” This was my experience in first seeing John Hewitt at the Canmore Folk Festival.”  \n\n\n\n– Stuart Muir\, New Moon Folk Club \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLethbridge Folk Clubs’ Prairie Folk Sessions presents Abigayle Oakley with John Hewitt on February 25th\, 2026\, at Analog Books. \n\n\n\nFrom Las Vegas to Nashvegas\, Abigayle Oakley blends the melodic richness of folk pioneers with the lyrical honesty of today’s confessional singer-songwriters. \n\n\n\nHer 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 \n\n\n\n\nWith 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.

Whether crafting bouncy anthems or more melancholic and thoughtful reflections\, there is a real engaging edge to her writing and her sound.” \n\n\n\n— CLOUT \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHome Routes with Lethbridge Folk Clubs’ Prairie Folk Sessions presents Kaeley Jade on Saturday April 11\, 2026\, at Analog Books. \n\n\n\nAlternative-folk singer/songwriter Kaeley Jade crafts full-hearted songs that dig deep. Growing up on the outskirts of North America’s most northern metropolis\, the Edmonton-based Métis artist has been sculpted by icy winter winds\, warm summer breezes\, and sweeping prairie skies. Whether through gently textured acoustic ballads or rip-roaring full-band cuts\, Kaeley’s powerful voice and vivid imagery capture the depths of life’s most challenging moments with sincerity and precision. \n\n\n\nKaeley will be drifting between her piano and acoustic guitar\, and will be accompanied by the amazing multi-instrumentalist Gabriel Gagnon\, so if you’re a fan of soaring vocals\, rich lyricism\, and heavenly harmonies\, this will definitely be a show I think you should check out! \n\n\n\n\nKaeley Jade’s forthcoming album\, The Great Unknown\, finds her exploring an earthier sound\, where expansive percussion mingles with soaring guitars to create the electric charge of an impending storm. At its core is Kaeley’s heartfelt vocal delivery\, both commanding and vulnerable\, and reminiscent of artists like Serena Ryder or Kacey Musgraves. Produced by JUNO Award-winner Hill Kourkoutis\, The Great Unknown is a cinematic plunge into the dread\, conflict\, and uncertainty that arises when we reach a turning point. There is a catharsis in letting go of that which no longer serves us\, and The Great Unknown invites listeners to embrace the unpredictability of life\, confront the moments that challenge us\, and celebrate the beauty found within the ever-shifting tides of experience. \n\n\n\nA Renaissance woman at heart\, Kaeley Jade’s creative practice extends far beyond her musical prowess. After attaining her Bachelor of Fine Arts in Acting from the University of Alberta in 2020\, she has continued to dance between the worlds of music\, theatre\, film\, and visual arts. Her work on Two-Headed/Half-Hearted—a prairie-gothic folk musical that premiered at Northern Light Theatre in 2022—showcased her talents as a composer\, sound designer\, and actor\, and earned her a Music in the Arts award at the Summer Solstice Indigenous Music Awards. With over 150 performances across Canada since 2023\, Kaeley’s deep love of storytelling and dynamic stage presence shine through whether she performs solo\, duo\, or with her five-piece band. \n\n\n\nDoors open at 6:30 PM \n\n\n\nReturn Policy URL:https://lethbridgefolkclub.ca/event/home-routes-presents-kaeley-jade/ LOCATION:Analog Books\, 322-6 street S\, Lethbridge\, Alberta\, T1J2C8\, Canada CATEGORIES:Concert ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://lethbridgefolkclub.ca/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/KAELEY-JADE-S-AB-_-SE-BC-APR26-SQ.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Edmonton:20260418T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Edmonton:20260418T220000 DTSTAMP:20260421T154730 CREATED:20251226T182839Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260408T014956Z UID:5551-1776538800-1776549600@lethbridgefolkclub.ca SUMMARY:Greg Herman Trio DESCRIPTION:Greg Herman Trio with Dusty Dee Litchfield \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClick Here to buy tickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOnline Tickets are available now. \n\n\n\nTickets are available at our ticket partners: Analog Books\, Cuppers Coffee\, Theoretically Brewing\, and Casa. \n\n\n\n“Entertaining and Thought Provoking”–  Maple Creek News \n\n\n\n“Raw simplicity that connects with audiences”–  Maple Creek Advance Times \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Lethbridge Folk Club Presents the Greg Herman Trio. \n\n\n\nActive as a musician since 1985\, Greg writes about the land\, family\, history and any ideas he can catch.

The event will culminate in a 1-hour wind-up concert at London Road’s Kinsmen Park. \n\n\n\nPorchfest starts at 12:00 noon with our first Porch concert and continues until 8:30 pm\, when our finale at Kinsmen Park winds up. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSee what they did in Medicine Hat last year! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClick on image to get a bigger view URL:https://lethbridgefolkclub.ca/event/lethbridge-porchfest/ LOCATION:London Road Neighbourhood & Kinsmen Playground\, 1016 9 Ave S\,\, Lethbridge Alberta\, alberta\, T1J 1T9\, Canada CATEGORIES:Concert ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://lethbridgefolkclub.ca/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Porchfest-Logo.jpg END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
