Since emerging onto the Toronto and international Roots scene with his debut 1999 album Back To The Dirt, Brian Gladstone has on countless occasions performed with Juno-winning, exquisitely talented guitarist Tony Quarrington accompanying him.
Although Quarrington (who’s also part of Gladstone’s Folk supergroup, The Guitar Boys Of Alderon) is considered a superior 6-stringer to most, Gladstone’s fingerpicking prowess has its own share of accolades from critics across the world.
The pair perform tomorrow as part of a monthly Songwriters Night showcase in the funky room at 137 Kerr St. in downtown Oakville. There’s usually a small cover charge but it’s well worth it, since the room is designed with superb acoustics and the vibe is also very listening-friendly.
