Friday August 6 - 8:00 pm - $15.

We're happy to announce that Tom Kimmel, one of our favourite performing songwriters is coming back to Gibsons and will be performing a House Concert in our living room Friday, August 6th at 8 PM.

If you haven't heard Tom, he's a great performer, songwriter and poet, and a seasoned pro. His songs have been recorded by Shawn Colvin, Linda Rondstadt, Joe Cocker, Art Garfunkel, Johnny Cash, Emmy Lou Harris and lots more.

Check out his website to hear samples. www.tomkimmel.com

We've got room for only 35 people, so all seats must be pre-paid (mail or drop off a cheque for $15 per person) to guarantee your seat. This is his third time here, so the show will hopefully sell out quickly. Be sure to book early!

We'll serve light refreshments, and you are welcome to bring something to drink and/or a snack to share.

For more info and to reserve your seat, please call us 604-886-5844 or email Lowry at lowry@lowryolafson.com
