An award-winning Canadian blues artist is coming to Shadbolt Centre for the Arts.
Ndidi Onukwulu, a Maple Blues Award winner and two-time Juno Award nominee, is onstage at the Shadbolt Centre on Friday, Feb. 9 at 8 p.m.
“There are voices that demand we listen to them. Not to their words, necessarily, but to their tone, to the emotional undercurrent that carries with it the soul of the speaker,” a press release says. “Ndidi Onukwulu is one of those voices.”
Onukwulu was born in B.C. to a Nigerian father and a German mother, and she grew up in British Columbia.
“She sings of her life experience so convincingly that the audience is set to wonder if they too grew up wandering the dense forests of B.C.’s most lonely mountain towns,” the release says.
Tickets for Onukwulu’s show are $40. See www.tickets.shadboltcentre.com or call 604-205-3000.
