Sheesham Lotus & Son – Belleville

Theatre in the Wings 30 Bridge Street East, Belleville

On Thursday, September 26, an international trio of musicians with a local connection will take to the stage at Theatre in The Wings in downtown Belleville. From Bewdley to Bree and all points in between, Sheesham Lotus & Son have presented their modern innovations of antiquity for the making of old-time sounds and ruthless groove music for the modern ear with commitment and vigour. Sound and vision explode from their stage as they play their canon of old-time American folk and pre-war songs with an aesthetic that is truly unusual. Playing Jaw-harps and harmonicas ranging from bass to treble amplified by beautiful horns, driving rhythms and soaring sibling harmonies have made them highly prized by festivals and audiences throughout Europe and the Americas. This trio of Sheesham (Teilhard Frost), Lotus Wight (Sam Allison), and (Son) Brian Sanderson far exceeds their core combo of fiddle, banjo and sousaphone. The local connection: Brian Sanderson is from Marmora and attended Centre Hastings High School! Tickets are $20, available on Eventbrite or when doors open at 7pm. Show time is 7:30pm. Theatre in The Wings is at 30 Bridge Street east in downtown Belleville. Website: https://riverandmain.ca/.
