Event Description

Victoria Folk Music Society weekly gathering; Everyone welcome jam 6:45pm, Open Stage 7:30pm, Feature Performers Medusa at 9pm Norway House, 1110 Hillside Avenue, $8 cash at the door

Medusa wields a sound that can turn classical music scholars to stone! These four accomplished Folk musicians — Georgia Hathaway, Lea Kirstein, Marta Sołek, and Saskia Tomkins — are reimagining the Western string quartet, tempting us to redefine what is beautiful.

Nominated for a 2024 Canadian Folk Music Award for instrumental group of the year, Medusa's dynamic arrangement style cross-pollinates the sounds of Middle Eastern, Scandinavian, Celtic, Appalachian, and Eastern European music with original tunes to create something previously unheard.

With their debut CD, the band aims to connect audiences across dividing lines of culture and identity. Their electrifying connection is transmuted through a common string language, a love of obscure Folk fiddles, and their personal stories of navigating society's liminal spaces.
