Liz Simmons will open the show. Lupton brings to life the best of the contemporary folk music scene in Ontario, while incorporating the Celtic influences that have been such an important part of the Canadian immigrant story. Allison will be joined for this concert by Canadian and US National fiddle champion and multi-instrumentalist Shane Cook and guitarist and Canadian Open Step Dance Champion Kyle Waymouth. Liz Simmons is a Cape Ann favorite as a founder of the bands Annalivia and Low Lily. In 2021 she released “Poets”, her first solo album in 15 years, and she will appear solo at this concert. Get tickets at https://oldslooppresents.org, John Tarr Store in Rockport, or The Bookstore of Gloucester.
