Scott Woods band to appear in Caledon East

February 13, 2014 · 0 Comments

Renowned Canadian fiddler Scott Woods and his band will soon be in the area to deliver an authentic live tribute to Don Messer’s Jubilee; one of the most popular TV shows in Canadian history.
The March 30 show will be hosted by Caledon East United Church and will be at Caledon Community Complex, starting at 2 p.m. Proceeds will help to support the Building Together Fund and the Mission and Service Fund at the Church.
Scott Woods Old Time Jubilee reunites Cape Breton Tenor Tommy Leadbeater (as Charlie Chamberlain) with Canadian Grand Master fiddle Champion Woods (Don Messer) and features the Velvet Vocals of Lynda Lewis (Marg Osborne) in a two-hour masterful performance honouring the days when Don Messer and his Islanders ruled the airwaves. The fast paced, uplifting show delights audiences of all ages with old time fiddle music, sensational step dancing, trick fiddling, family humour and more.
Woods is a multiple Canadian Open and Canadian Grand Master Fiddle Champion. He is known affectionately throughout Canada as “The Flippin’ Fiddler” – a nickname earned as a result of a running somersault he does while playing his fiddle without missing a beat. The Scott Woods Band travels across Canada each year performing up to 150 concerts, almost all of which help to support churches, charities and other community groups.
Tickets for the March 30 show are $25 for adults, $10 for youngsters (aged six to 12) and kids five and under get in free. Tickets are on sale at Davis Feed and Farm Supply, 15770 Mountainview Rd., or call 905-584-2189 or 905-584-2118.
