There’s something about Valdy’s music that makes it memorable; between his soothing voice and captivating guitar, his songs have that comforting factor that make you want to always keep listening.
Valdy, (born Valdemar Horsdal in Ottawa) has been part of the fabric of Canadian pop and folk music for half a century. He is well known for “Play Me a Rock ‘n’ Roll Song” but has also delighted audiences everywhere performing classics such as “Peter & Lou”, “Yes I Can”, “Renaissance”, “Sonny’s Dream” and many more.
Valdy will once again bring his talent and charm to all three Maritime Provinces this fall including a performance Sunday, September 29th at the beautiful Strathspey Performing Arts Centre in Mabou, N.S., his only Cape Breton Island stop on the tour.
See the Canadian legend live in person this September!
