Local Arts

One of Saskatoon's hottest bands, the Saskatoon Legendary Rhythm and Blues Revue, will be playing at the Sloan Auditorium in North Battleford May 2.

It’s being billed as a “very, very, very, very funny night.” It should prove true with the Best of the Winnipeg Comedy Festival entertaining on the Gordon Tootoosis stage and other live performance artists set up throughout the building.

Battlefords Community Players have begun the performance of the last play of the 2014-15 season. Trad had its premiere night Tuesday and will be playing Thursday, Friday and Saturday at the Dekker Centre for the Performing Arts.

Dancers from around the province will be congregating on Humboldt to compete in the annual OnStage Dance Festival, which will take place at the Uniplex from April 23 to 26.

April is International Guitar Month, meaning musicians from around the world are celebrating the most popular instrument in rock music.

Local country singer Ray Whitton has said his latest album will be his last. “It’s such an emotional roller coaster that I don’t know if I could continuously put myself through that,” he said.

You never really know what’s going to go viral. People put pictures of themselves on Facebook or videos on YouTube and for some weird reason it takes off.

The Celtic Tenors

The Battlefords Jazz Society is excited about an upcoming show March 14 featuring locally grown talent.

Spring is on the horizon and once again, the St. Peter’s College Fine Arts Department Student Exhibit is displayed in the Humboldt & District Gallery.
