Mama's Broke House Concert:

Roots Hoot House Concerts presents award-winning duo Mama's Broke on Saturday, November 4. Based out of New Orleans and Halifax, Mama's Broke craft a sound that artfully weaves old-time, Quebecois, blues, punk, Celtic, Balkan and doom metal into a hypnotic and energizing tapestry of original music. The connection between Amy Lou Keeler and Lisa Maria draws the listener in as they effortlessly move through dark, lonesome, and intricate a capella songs to fiery, ripping fiddle/banjo tunes accompanied by foot percussion and driving guitar rhythms. Their debut album Count the Wicked won them a Canadian Folk Music Award in 2017 for Ensemble of the Year as well as a nomination for ECMA Rising Star Award. Their sophomore album Narrow Line, released in 2022 on Free Dirt Records, was featured in The Bluegrass Situation, Holler Country, No Depression, Folk Radio UKs top ten of the year as well as being placed on NPRs taste maker and Tiny Desk host Bob Boilens What Im Listening To Right Now Spotify playlist. Narrow Line is currently in the running for 2023 Canadian Folk Music Award vocal group of the year and has also been nominated for a Juno award (Best Traditional Roots Album of The Year). Doors are at 7 pm and show time at 7:30. Don't miss out!
