The Juno Award winning Ennis Sisters, a popular act whenever they come to Bragg Creek, are on their way back for a return engagement, with their happy blend of sibling rivalry, humour, and beautiful tunes.
Organizers promise “they will leave you with a smile on your face and humming a song.”
Put on as part of the Bragg Creek performing Artists’ series, Newfoundland’s own sisters blend sibling rivalry, humour, and beautiful tunes.
The Ennis Sisters are a folk group made up of three real sisters, Maureen, Karen, and Teresa Ennis – all gifted singers and musicians. Maureen is a guitarist and songwriter. The middle-born Karen plays the tin whistle and flute and does step dancing. The youngest of the family trio, Teresa, step dances and plays the bodhran. A bodhran is a frame drum used in Irish music.
“The award-winning trio have been captivating audiences worldwide for over 25 years, with their seamless harmonies and compelling songwriting. As proud cultural ambassadors, The Ennis Sisters enchant audiences with their timeless music, proving that the melodies of Newfoundland and Labrador can resonate around the world,” said Clint Docken of Bragg Creek Performing Arts.
Come out and “fill your boots,” Docken said. (“Fill your boots” means “enjoy yourself” in Newfoundland).
The concert at the Bragg Creek Community Centre (23 White Avenue) is on Friday Sept. 27. Doors open at 7:30 pm, concert is at 8. Tickets $35 at braggcreekperformingarts.com or call Ticketpro 1 888 655 9090. Youth under 18 tickets $25.
The Bragg Creek Performing Arts’s mission is to deliver live concerts that captivate and inspire. Their next musical event – an exclusive concert dinner – with Ellen Doty is on November 16.
Run entirely by volunteers, the Bragg Creek Performing Arts Society is a registered not-for-profit charity. They invite everyone to join them in celebrating the magic of music and the arts. For more information go to [email protected].
