Cadence, a three-time Juno Award nominee, will bring the group’s tight harmonies and vocal dexterity to the stage to perform everything from classic songs and bebop standards to 1980s hits.
Cadence includes members David Lane (baritone and bass), Ross Lynde (tenor), Lucas Marchand (tenor) and Kurt Sampson (bass and vocal percussion).
The Fairfield Community Arts Center’s Performing Arts Season will feature four distinct series – Fairfield Signature Sessions, Wine, Women & Song, One Stage and EnterAct, which will showcase a variety of talent, including music, comedy, theater and family entertainment.
“The Community is why we’re here. We are the Fairfield Community Arts Center. It’s a great opportunity for guests to come, and stay local. There are several restaurants in town, so they can make a whole evening out of it. They can get dinner, see a show, and the prices are affordable,” Sheldrick said.
Other season highlights will include the family favorite, Dr. Seuss’s The Cat in the Hat; an award-winning folk duo, Simple Gifts, and the canine comedy of Johnny Peers & the Muttville Comix. The season will continue through Saturday, April 28, and conclude with John McEuen, founder of the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, who will bring a collection of songs and stories to the stage.
