Cédrik St.Onge at/à Saint-Lambert en Fête

Though the Friday night activites we're taken care of, the party at Saint-Lambert en Fête was far from over.  The shows given by Jonathan Macaulay and later Patrick Norman, photographs available by following the preceding links, had set the stage for the Saturday night concerts, kicked off by Cédrik (with a K) St Onge.  Hailing from the town of Caplan in the Gaspé region of Québec, Cedrik St. Onge was first discovered at a music camp and earlier this year released his first 5 song EP of his own personal style of Folk music.  There are only a few photographs in this update as I arrived late to the set in order to attend an early surprise birthday dinner for a friend.  I hope that what I lack in quantity, is made up for in quality.  The first photograph was taken at f/3.2, 1/200sec, ISO 1600 at 200mm.  Here are a few more photographs from his set.

Though I missed a large chunk of his show, I still saw enough to be impressed by his playing.  He had a nice stage presence as well, from chatting with the crowd to blaming his ADD for having forgotten his stack of CD's which he had helped to sell at home.  Thus leading him to remind us that they can be bought at his website.  Just don't forget, it is spelt Cédrik, with a K.  One more show to go, and it's a big one so be sure you come back with some snacks for the next update.
