Get ready for an intimate evening with one of Nova Scotia’s most accomplished and engaging singer-songwriters.
Ian Sherwood is a gifted guitarist, saxophonist, songwriter and storyteller whose music moves effortlessly between folk, pop, roots and jazz. With a velvety voice, sharp wit and a knack for connecting with an audience, Ian's live performances are as entertaining as they are musically impressive.
His songs are smart, melodic and often deeply personal—but there's always room for humour, surprise and a little musical mischief.
