Scottish-born David Francey, hailed as 'one of Canada's most revered folk poets' (Toronto Star), immigrated from Ayrshire to Canada at twelve. A former carpenter and rail yard worker, his authentic songs reflect the working-class experience. From his acclaimed debut Torn Screen Door in 1999, Francey has gone on to win 4 Juno Awards, a SOCAN Folk Music Award, and international songwriting honours, becoming a celebrated voice in Canadian music. Joining him on stage are Jess Weden (fiddle, vocals) and Chris Murphy (guitar, vocals).
