Grant Lawrence, CBC broadcaster and author, is bringing his West-Coast style Vinyl Cafe live show on the road and will be visiting Gabriola in September. Grant Lawrence and Friends: an evening of stories and songs.

“In his inimitable, high-voltage style Lawrence interweaves the rich and harrowing history of the Desolation Sound area with his own experiences of life on the coast.” CBC.ca

You may remember Grant from his well-received show at the Cultivate Festival in Aug of 2018. He has recently released new book “Return to Solitude“, a sequel memoir about spending summers in Desolation Sound.
