2017-09-02: Creaking Planks busk the Trout Lake Farmer's Market

It's a thing now: two years running, we promote the Accordion Noir Festival by busking at local Farmer's Markets during the lead-up to the festival concert dates. Last year, this curious system brought us downtown with Jet Black Pearl; this year, it takes us to the great grand-dame of them all, the hallowed Trout Lake Farmer's Market (held in the Lakewood & E. 13th parking lot at John Hendry Park) where buskers typically don't even get a chance to apply to play before years of hazing at more marginal markets. The Musical Career Of The Creaking Planks: Years of Hazing? I can't connect those dots with confidence (finger painting abstracts, that's more my speed), but what I can tell you is that a sizable contingent of Planks will be Creaking up a storm there acoustically from 11:30 am through to 2 pm. So come on by, pick up some fresh Chilliwack corn, let us put some roots (music) in your ears and leave some lettuce in our hat. Cheers!
