Ann Vriend’s new album, entitled “For The People In The Mean Time” tells tough tales of the struggle of inner city life against the backdrop of explosive indie soul beats and harmonies. Despite the subject matter “backed with heavy grooves For The People In The Mean Time is upbeat without forcing needless optimism” writes the Calgary Sun, adding “Vriend’s voice is unmistakable, catching and powerful.” Production-wise, “with all its dubs, loops, samples, creaks, quirks and squeaks [For The People In the Mean Time] creates a Bohemian approximation of a Motown record that would do Berry Gordy Jr. proud…. Overall, ‘For the People in the Mean Time’ is a stunning and (despite all the comparisons) original achievement” writes City Gigs, Edmonton.

Alongside concert series founder Tom Jackson, guest artists in both the musical (Act 1) and special concert (Act 2) include Don Amero, Shannon Gaye, Beverley Mahood and One More Girl.

Jackson’s philanthropic national projects now celebrate 27 years of fundraising history with over $200 million in cash/in-kind services for food banks, family agencies and disaster relief.

Great-West Life, London Life and Canada Life are the presenting sponsors of The Huron Carole – A Musical.  Local food banks are the beneficiaries from ticket sales and all funds remain at the local level. Tour Dates/Locations/Links at huroncarole.ca

Jackson shares, “The Huron Carole – A Musical will be an unwrapping of the gift I received while living in a crawlspace in 1987. I carry it in my heart. It continues to motivate me to share the philosophy of ‘the gift is in the giving’. The gift is life-changing, and in my case, life-saving.”
