Singing The Blues

Another of those missed events of 2020 has just gone.  This past weekend would have been the Festin Culturel in the city of Brossard.  A large culinary celebration of tastes, closed by a large Saturday night show.  Back in 2018, I took some photographs from the crowd, but last year I was able to position myself at the front of the stage thanks to a photo pass that I had gotten from the organization.  The musical entertainment on that night was a tribute to one of Québec's greatest blues singer, Bob Walsh.  There was a who's who of talent up on the stage that night.  Martin Goyette, Brian Tyler, Breen Leboeuf, Nanette Workman and France D'Amour along with a talented group of musicians led by Bob Walsh's great friend, Guy Bélanger.  Opening up the festivities was Lydna Thalie who got the crowd moving with her Super Hero energy.  The first photograph was taken at f/8, 1/200sec, ISO 3200 at 35mm.  Here are a few more photographs from the event.

If you'd like to go back in time and see the other photographs that I took of the shows, you can see the photographs of Lynda Thalie, Martin Goyette, Brian Tyler, Breen Leboeuf, Nanette Workman and France D'Amour by clicking on their names.  You'll also find the links necessary to find out more about their music on those updates as well.  Hopefully I'll be back there next year.
