Blues lovers about to get Wicked Grin

2015 Maple Blues award winners Wicked Grin head west on tour, with a stop at Lorenzo's Cafe.

Since 2003, Murray Kinsley and Wicked Grin have been rockin’ festivals and clubs throughout Ontario and Quebec with their distinctive hard driving, in-your-face blues.

And now the 2015 Maple Blues award winners are about to head west on tour, with a stop in Ashton Creek.

Wicked Grin’s last CD, Shame On Me, has been receiving widespread airplay and favourable reviews in Canada, the U.S. and Europe.

The Ottawa Citizen described Shame On Me as “dark, bluesy ruminations on love and loss featuring the weathered vocals and nasty guitar of Kinsley, who must have sold his soul to achieve such depths of sonic wickedness.”

The song, Heaven, from Shame On Me was selected by The Ottawa Citizen as one of the top 10 tunes of 2013 recorded by Ottawa artists.

See Wicked Grin live when it takes the stage at Lorenzo’s Café, 901 Mabel Lake Rd., eight kilometres east of Enderby, Thursday, March 26 at 8 p.m. Cover is $15. Info/reservations available at (250) 838-6700.
