BLUEBIRD NORTH - Where writers sing and tell
The Songwriters Association of Canada is celebrating it's 21st year of running Bluebird North in Vancouver.  This popular bi-monthly concert series celebrates songwriting in a warm, engaging theatre setting.

Featuring
Roy Forbes
Lydia Hol
Oliver Swain
& Shari Ulrich (host)

ROY FORBES, one of Canadas best-loved acoustic performers, has toured extensively in Canada and the US for more than three decades. His first album, 'Kid Full Of Dreams', received a Juno nomination in 1976 while 1998s 'Crazy Old Moon', received a 1999 Juno nomination and a 1999 West Coast Music Award, one of several WCMAs Roy has received over the years. Many of Roys songs were performed and recorded by other people: Susan Jacks (of the Poppy Family), Sylvia Tyson, Matt Minglewood, Valdy and Shari Ulrich in the early days and, more recently, Shawn Colvin, Hart Rouge, Tracey Brown, Cindy Church, Laurie Lewis, Kathy Kallick, Suzie Vinnick and Norman Foote. Roy also produces other artists, composes scores for film and TV, and is a popular radio host (Snap Crackle Pop on CBC and Roys Record Room on CKUA in Alberta). www.royforbes.ca

LYDIA HOLhas toured the country from coast to coast since the release of her debut EP, Boats (2012), filling rooms with her songs and stories. Lydias time spent living in Ireland flavors her performances with a storytellers honesty and charm, and her studies in English Literature have helped to shape her songwriting into an insightful, and mature art. In 2013 Lydia was a Top 20 Finalist in the Peak Performance Project, and a Regional Finalist in CBCs Searchlight Contest. In 2014 she showcased in Toronto and Kansas City, and was the Featured Musician at The Vancouver Mayors Arts Awards. She recently wrote and recorded Heading North, her first full-length album, at Afterlife Studios in Vancouver. Lydia is passionate about promoting songwriting and community. She annually curates the Vancouver Acoustic Guitar Project, started and hosts The Yale Songwriter Sessions, a weekly songwriters showcase in Vancouver, and works for The Rogue Folk Club. In 2016 she is heading to Austin TX as part of the House of Songs project. www.lydiahol.com

OLIVER SWAIN was only kid in school who claimed Robert Johnson as his favourite musician, in a time when grunge rock was on top. After a stint with The Bills back when they were known as the Bill Hilly Band in Victoria, he moved to Winnipeg to join Scruj MacDuhk (later The Duhks). In Winnipeg he formed a trio with fiddler Jeremy Penner and singer Ruth Moody, and made a series of pilgrimages to the Appalachians that solidified his love for traditional southern folk music. After moving to Louisiana to perform with the Red Stick Ramblers for a year, Swain then decided to bring the music back home to Victoria, where he helped form popular folk group Outlaw Social, releasing two critically acclaimed albums, and touring extensively for several years. Since Outlaw Socials demise, Oliver has invested the last several years in playing solo shows across Canada, and finally releasing his solo debut, In A Big Machine.  He is a two time Prairie Music Award recipient with The Bills, and shared a 2008 WCMA nomination for Outstanding Roots Group with Outlaw Social.


SHARI ULRICH grew up in the San Francisco Bay area, and immigrated to Canada in 1972. Shortly after, she discovered music and joined up with Joe Mock & Rick Scott to form the quirky Pied Pumkin.  In 1976 she joined Valdy's back-up band, which went on to become the Juno Award-winning Hometown Band. Her subsequent solo career also marked the beginning of her life as a songwriter, winning her another Juno Award in 1981 and a SOCAN award for She Remembers. Over the years Shari has also expanded into television hosting, songwriting education, and composing for film and television. Everywhere I Go, Sharis eighth solo album (and 21st including her work with UHF, BTU and the High Bar Gang), garnered her the 2014 CFMA Songwriter of the Year award. She has been producing Bluebird North in Vancouver since 1996.
