One of SFT’s favourite acts, The Celtic Kitchen Party has been entertaining our audience since 2018. Boasting a diversity of talent, CKP plays a mix of Celtic-infused originals, traditional and contemporary East Coast, Irish and Scottish - and the right dash of Pop and Classic Rock! The band always conjures up that ‘down home’ feeling where all your relatives and neighbours drop by for a traditional kitchen party, creating a lively high-energy performance every time.

All of the lads' energy and experience has culminated in a three album collection available in CD and DIGITAL through the band, and on all major platforms. These albums continue to be seated somewhere between original upbeat party tunes and beautiful storytelling to creative re-imaginings of traditional favourites.

Members please purchase tickets via the Box Office

As with all forces of nature, the music and energy created by The Next Generation Leahy simply cannot be contained. The drive to create music is powerful within each of the Leahy children. It has given rise to multi-instrumental talents, whose dynamic live performances have been described as “astounding” and “breathtaking.”

For the last several years, Next Generation Leahy has performed across North America, and shared the stage with the likes of The Chieftains, We Banjo 3, The Tenors, and Natalie MacMaster & Donnell Leahy.

Belying their young ages, these siblings are all accomplished multi-instrumentalists whose live performances are filled with the high-energy, infectious music associated with the Leahy name. However, not content to play only the music of their Celtic heritage, these musicians explore many genres of music and pull influences from far and wide. Fiddle, cello, French accordion, singing, piano, and French-Canadian step-dancing serve to bring their unique style of music to life.

The music that lives in each of these young people - which is so joyful, so positive, and so rare – overflows from them and affects audiences who have witnessed something truly unique and remarkable.

Burt Bacharach was, without a doubt, among the most prolific and influential composers of the second half of the 20th century.

Beginning with his seemingly endless string of hits with lyricist Hal David - “I’ll Never Fall in Love Again”, “Alfie”, “What’s New Pussycat?”, “The Look of Love”, “Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head”, “I Say a Little Prayer”, “(They Long To Be) Close To You” (truly just scratching the surface) - to his re-emergence in the eighties collaborating with then wife/lyricist Carole Bayer Sager and producing hits like “Arthur’s Theme (The Best That You Can Do)”, “Heartlight”, “On My Own” and “That’s What Friends Are For” - Bacharach’s musical legacy is substantial, celebrated and far-reaching.

BRILLIANTLY BACHARACH celebrates not only the music, but the life, times and personal trials and tribulations of this Grammy, Academy and Emmy Award-winning composer. Featuring Dean Hollin, John MacMurchy, and Sheri Weldon - supported by an outstanding band - BRILLIANTLY BACHARACH will take you on a musical biography of epic proportions!
