FBMS presents The Unfaithful Servants and openers Grass-Blue Band, 7:30PM April 22, 2023 at the Irish Cultural Centre!

The Unfaithful Servants have quickly gained a reputation in Western Canada as a must-see act. With an original and exciting approach to acoustic music, the group serves up explosive instrumentals, compelling story-telling and high-powered vocals. As Kelly Nakatsuka (Islands Folk Festival, CBC host) describes "The Unfaithful Servants are one of the most exciting bands from Vancouver Island in some time...gorgeous harmonies and fine song writing, beautiful instrumental interplay and some seriously rippin' solos".

American born mandolinist Jesse Cobb could be described as a virtuoso on his instrument.  He is a founding member of the critically acclaimed bluegrass group The Infamous String Dusters and with that group he received a Grammy nomination for one of his original compositions.  Jesse has recorded and performed with Bela Fleck, Lee Anne Womack, Dirks Bentley, Jim Lauderdale, John Cowan and many others. He’s held a residency at the historic stage of The Grand Old Opry and has toured the world. His exceptional talent is widely recognized in the bluegrass world and he is an innovator of the instrument.

Dylan Stone has warmed up stages for the likes of Keith Urban, EVERLAST and Alejandro Escovedo. An interesting and storied career has led him to perform with musical heavies including Robert Randolf and Colin James. An honest musician who plays and sings from the heart, Dylan is a restless songwriter who is constantly pursuing new songs, sounds and collaborations. 

Since the group was founded in 2017, The Unfaithful Servants have been continuously pushing forward the limits of traditional music and consistently delivering exciting & engaging concert performances.

The Grass-Blue Band coalesce around a sweet acoustic sound and a joyful approach to singing that engulfs the audience. Add the the entrepreneurial banjo of Brian Fukushima, super flat picking and percussive rhythmic guitar from Steve Fisher, the funky fabulous clarinet from Cedric Blary, and the heartbeat with Renay Eng-Fisher on bass and you have the makings of one hot bluegrass band. But wait! Not just bluegrass! The Grass-Blue band turn their talents to any number of genres, with enough panache, to make you a fan of all of them. Part country, part folk, all energy and all enthusiasm! They will delight you!
