Presented by the Selkirk College Contemporary Music Program and the Corazon Vocal Ensemble, featuring Seamus Egan and special guests Voiceworks and Lalin.

Themes of real and metaphorical border crossings -hopeful immigrants, exiles in mourning, or each of us seeking belonging and empathy - are the backbone of this show.

Moira Smiley's performances ring elegance and grit to folk-songs, original and ancient. Expect soul-stirring arrangements of Anglo-Celtic ballads, American spirituals, European folk-laments and sharp, poignant original songs that call effortlessly upon the audience to whisper, clap or sing along.

Moira plays plain-spoken accompaniment on banjo, accordion, body/hand percussion and piano. Performing solo or with her small ensemble, Moira can inspire ANY room - anywhere - to sing.
