April 27th, 2023 6PM
Join us at For-rest Retreat in the yurt on Thursday, April 27th for a small, intimate dinner & live music with Canadian Folk/Bluegrass Singer Jude Pelley.
We will be firing up the oven for some Wood-fired Pizza and taking orders until April 26th.
Jude Pelley was born in Carbonear, Newfoundland, late in 1975; and raised in the rural community of West Dublin, on Nova Scotia’s South Shore. He was tremendously inspired by his musical father, Derek Pelley, who played with seminal Canadian folk-rock groups Figgy Duff and Rawlins Cross; he spent his formative years learning the mandolin, playing with Bridgewater’s award-winning bluegrass band, Exit 13. Since those days, his musical adventures have included: touring Nova Scotia by bicycle; being a mainstay in Victoria, BC’s vibrant professional music scene for 5 years; criss-crossing Canada, usually in vehicles which run on waste vegetable oil, or by train; hosting the Pennybrook Festival in West Dublin, NS; running a small-scale acoustic music recording and production studio, Alone Stone Productions; and dabbling in medieval and early music.
Currently, Jude is in the process of polishing up a long-awaited solo album, due out in the Fall of 2023. His main side project these days is a roots, blues, and Appalachian old-time music duo with fiddler and singer Amy Lounder, called Sloecooker.
Fill out the form to reserve your tickets. We will be in touch by April 20th to let you know Pizza options if you are interested in ordering.
