Lonesome Ace Stringband @ The Dakota Tavern, Friday

Watch John Showman, Max Heineman and Chris Coole perform a couple of faves. They're on stage at The Dakota from 7 m to 9 pm.   

Toronto's own Lonesome Ace Stringband – comprised of fiddler John Showman, banjo picker deluxe Chris Coole and bass boss Max Heineman – will always call The Dakota Tavern home. The band was formed to fill a residency at the bar's "Bluegrass Brunch", and have played many hundreds of sets there over the past 12 years. Due to a busy touring touring schedule, they don't get a chance to play in Toronto much any more, so don't miss the chance to see them throw down back where it all began!
