“Internationally acclaimed Alt-country &amp; Roots up &amp; comer John Michael Lind (JML) is that rare combination of kick-ass fun and soulful connection. Often at the same time! With a clear Blue Rodeo vibe, his versions of great, often little-known, songs by legends like Lightfoot, Dylan, Waits, Cash and more, are true to the spirit of the originals yet infused with JML soul.He drives his booming Tinker guitar like a locomotive, chugging up the hills and highballing on the straights, while his voice wails like that lonesome whistle. You gotta check this guy out!"A veteran of hundreds of live shows, from street performances to music festivals, altcountry/roots performer John Michael Lind has created rich audience connection for over a decade. His simple brand of “Alt-Country, Played Well,” riding upon his driving guitar work and sweet tenor voice, delivers JML’s tender original songs and great cover versions from heroes like Steve Earle, John Prine and Gordon Lightfoot straight from his heart.JML’s long and varied experience in jobs ranging from skate sharpener, to ditch-digger, movie-maker, corporate office drone, and truck driver, gives him a keen perspective, transforming his experiences into songs and performances people enjoy and connect with.In addition to several successful self-funded tours across Western Canada JML has performed at festivals both virtual and IRL, drawing praise and invitations to return. He’s also been a finalist and short-listed in varied juried events such as the Merritt Rockin River Festival (semi-finalist); Canadian Songwriting Challenge (honourable mention); Yale Hotel Songwriter Sessions; Vancouver City Limits Showcase; Great Canadian Song Search; and various other showcases and special events. JML has received accolades for his debut CD “Out on the Land” as well as widespread radio play across Canada, prompting comparisons to artists ranging from Alan Jackson to Jimmy Buffett.JML’s new album “Lightning Rod” is slated for release March 2025.Children aged 12-19 are welcome to attend – they must have a ticket and be accompanied by an adult.Pre-purchased Charcuterie is non-refundable.
