Date: Monday, August 18
Time: 6:45pm
Venue: Ottawa Art Gallery – 2 Daly Avenue, Ottawa

Kathleen will be speaking at The Ottawa Art Gallery | La Galerie d’art d’Ottawa to help kick off the Arboretum Arts Festival. She will be on a panel discussing “Why I left Ottawa” with Remi Thériault, Olivier Fairfield, and Emmanuel Sayer.

To open the festival, the panel will address Ottawa’s penchant for creating and nurturing a vast pool of artists, that traditionally have left for larger cultural centres. Over the last decade, this trend has receded somewhat, and the panel of notable local artists will discuss reasons why they may have left, contemplated leaving, moved here, or stuck it out.

Kathleen is on an amazing Arctic expedition with Students on Ice, teaching music workshops, and offering guidance to students about working as an artist. Read about her hopes for the trip here.

Kathleen has just been announced as part of the Shivering Songs festival in Fredericton on 24th January 2014. Curated by local folk-pop group Olympic Symphonium and friends, this festival has a strong emphasis on the songwriting craft and annually features an array of East Coast artists as well as songwriters, musicians and storytellers from all over North America. Highlights alongside the headlining performances at downtown’s Wilmot United Church include the always popular Songwriter’s Circle and the hootenanny known as the Bluegrass Brunch at the Boyce Farmer’s Market. Music fans of all ages will find something to embrace at Shivering Songs.

She will also be performing at In The Dead of Winter in Halifax on 25th January 2014. The festival aims to bring a diverse group of acoustic musicians together to not only perform but to also meet one another in a professional environment. It is of particular importance to the festival to not only celebrate the excellence of our musicians but to also provide venues for artists who have not yet had the opportunity to perform their music to a wider audience.

The In the Dead of Winter Music Festival is organized by a small group of musicians and event producers. The festival was founded by Heather Gibson with Halifax musicians Jill Barber, Rose Cousins, Jenn Grant, and Amelia Curran.

For more details on either show, follow this link.

The ninth annual Holiday Cheer for FUV concert will bring an evening of collaboration to the Beacon Theatre: Iron & Wine and Friends, featuring Tucson-based Calexico as house band for a one-time evening of song and camaraderie. The show will take place Tuesday, December 10th at 8 p.m. and will benefit WFUV, New York’s musically innovative public radio station. Joining them will be songwriter/performer Nick Lowe, vocalist/guitarist Glen Hansard, singer-songwriter Kathleen Edwards, plus other artists to be announced.

Make sure you set your dials to 91.5 FM to hear all the fun. Kathleen will be hosting between 7:30-8:30 a.m. in front of a live studio audience.

If you’re not familiar with Freaky Fridays – here’s a synopsis: This spring Robyn Bresnahan, host of Ottawa Morning, started changing places with various people in the city. It started with Reverend Bailey from Parkdale United Church. The following week she was Mayor for a day. Following that, a principal. Then the lead trumpet in the NAC Orchestra. In return for letting her spend a day in their lives, Robyn let all of them spend a Friday morning in her hosting chair.
