Meaghan Smith with Ian Kelly: July 6

Meaghan Smith with Ian Kelly: Wednesday, July 6. 8:00. $15 at the door. Meaghan Smith was born in London ON, and she was Meaghan_Smith.jpgborn singing. Stage fright led her to go to school for animation but when she couldn’t fight the urge to sing her songs; she conspired to make the album ‘The Cricket’s Orchestra’ with producer, Les Cooper. Her love of the music of the ’20s, ’30s, and ’40s, recalls those eras but with her own special spin. Last March’s Juno Awards named her the best new artist of the year. Smith lets her personality shine and expand on her music, accompanied on guitar by her husband Jason Mingo.  www.meaghansmith.com Ian Kelly: He’s the big guy with that unique voice; he’s got a knack for nifty arrangements and a unique blend of ethereal pop and down-home rootsy fare. www.iankellysmusic.com
