We went on Thursday & Saturday night and will consider the whole weekend next year. We had such a good time!

We are already promoting the festival to family and friends from near and far.

With a career of more than 30 years and 10 albums, Angel Forrest, recipient of the Maple Blues Awards for Female Vocalist of the Year for the last six years and finalist at the International Blues Challenge 2018 in Memphis, strikes again with Electric Love, a double live album,  1 111 limited numbered and signed edition where we find various sounds ranging from blues to rock through the original compositions of the artist and great classics that you will certainly recognize.

She also had  the chance to share the stage with many artists including The Beach Boys, Dennis DeYoung,  Mellissa Ethridge, Burton Cummings,  Eric  Burdon  and  more.

In 1996, she began her musical career with her first album Secondhand Blues, which featured several blues classics. Forrest?s work gained positive attention from critics as well as fans. It was her tribute show to the legendary Janis Joplin that brought Angel Forrest to the public. Her spot on tribute to Janis Joplin was another unique signature on blues takes. She decided to immortalize her interpretations of the songs on an album called Angel Sings Janis Live. Then, she recorded her first album with her own compositions, Here For You, which has sold over 30,000 copies, followed by three other albums including her Christmas album called Wonderland, the award-winning Come Alive and Mother Tongue Blues, which won blues album of the year in Quebec and nominated for Recording of the Year at the 2014 Maple Blues Awards. Next came a live acoustic album titled Live Love. The following project made some big waves as 11 of the guitar players were asked to play on 11 original songs written by Angel and Denis Columbus. This album gave Forrest and Columbus the award for songwriter of the year at the prestigious Maple Blues Awards. Electric Love is the last opus and is topping the charts all over the planet.

There is no question that Angel Forrest is one of the most powerful singers on the contemporary blues scene today. The strength of her performances, her distinctive voice and fiery personality has allowed her to conquer the hearts of thousands of fans around the world.

SILVER CREEK IS A COLLECTION OF OTTAWA'S FINEST AND BUSIEST MUSICIANS

The band’s sound has morphed and matured, their southern-rock roots pinnacled on 2011’s sprawling work “Princes and Kings” and moved from there into something far more unique. Today the songs are much more focused, and give more the feeling of looking forward than looking back. Working with John Chandler and Ken Friesen as producers on new material, the band still believes in and relies on local talent rather than looking beyond the Ottawa valley for the big names and hype spin of other cities.
