Liam & LaLa - Debut Atlantic

Liam & LaLa is a new cello/piano duo composed of two of Canada’s brightest young talents, cellist David Liam Roberts and pianist LaLa Lee. The duo are dedicated to innovative programming and unforgettably engaging performances. In November 2020, they made their recital debut for Cecilia Concerts at the Lilian Piercey Concert Hall in Halifax, to great acclaim. Despite having formed under the extraordinary circumstances of the ongoing pandemic, the duo has quickly developed a unique and exciting artistic voice.

Individually, David Liam and LaLa are both establishing themselves as two of the most promising emerging Canadian musicians. David Liam is the winner of the 1st Prize and Grand Award at the 2018 National Music Festival of Canada as well as the esteemed 2020 Michael Measures 2nd Prize, while LaLa performs extensively throughout China and Canada and has played concerti with orchestras including the Shanghai Philharmonic, Xiamen Philharmonic Orchestra, and Symphony Nova Scotia. Both artists have been featured on CBC’s list of Canada’s 30 Top Classical Musicians Under 30 and are recipients of The Royal Conservatory’s most prestigious scholarships.

Quote the Raven - Up Close and Personal

Thu Apr 20, 20237:30 p.m. at the OAC

Quote the Raven, the dynamic duo Jordan Coaker & Kirsten Rodden-Clarke, have a harmonious blend that’s incomparable; it’s like the blending of two voices into one, while their Americana meets East Coast songwriting and stage dynamic are irresistibly charming.

Their record Can’t Hold the Light, is a summation of the journeys that the pair have experienced over the past three years.The 3-time Music NL award winners (including 2019 and 2021 Group of the Year) have embarked on a whopping five tours of Eastern Canada, mapped out a Home Routes trek of Western Canada, opened for the Barenaked Ladies and performed at AmericanaFest in Nashville.

Quote the Raven marry smooth vocal harmonies with an, at times, haunting aesthetic that both bewitches and allures the listener. They draw influence from the likes of Joy Williams (Civil Wars), Brandi Carlile, and The Milk Carton Kids. The pair entertain audiences with their quirky, quick wit dynamic that glimpses into the daily lives of touring musicians.

All seats $30 and include a glass of wine or a beer.
