“The Coulson Concerts” is back for a third season of great Canadian music. This folk/roots series is presented in a quaint historic church in Oro-Medonte. It is located in the hamlet of Coulson at 301 Horseshoe Valley Road W., and hosted by local singer-songwriter Anne Walker.

The venue: This little white church has stood watch at the top of Coulson hill on the Horseshoe Valley Road for over 140 years. The church, built in 1881, was closed as a place of worship in the 1960s and recently restored preserving many original features, including an ornate Victorian tin ceiling, pews, plank flooring, a cast iron and nickel-plated stove, and the original pulpit. Coulson Church provides an enchanting setting in which to enjoy authentic Canadian music.

Katherine Wheatley and James Gordon

Sunday, June 22 2pm

Acoustic roots with catchy melodies, arresting vocals, great guitar playing, lyrics that get you and that you get – these are all things that have been written over and over again about Katherine Wheatley’s music. She sings truth, bravely, and in detail. Like Shawn Colvin and Joni Mitchell, Wheatley mines heartache and produces lyrical and melodic gold. https://www.katherinewheatley.com/

James Gordon has been there. He’s done that. He has had a diverse and resilient career in the Canadian cultural sector. As a solo singer-songwriter and with the ground-breaking trio Tamarack, he’s recorded 40 albums and toured relentlessly around the world. He’s written for symphony orchestras, musical theatre and dance works, scored films, and for more than ten years was heard on CBC radio as songwriter-in-residence. Between tours, James is a record producer, playwright, community activist and theatre director. https://jamesgordon.ca/
