This month, we share one from Boreal, whose annual festive concert at the River Run Centre is coming up soon.
Boreal started in 2006 in Jude Vadala’s kitchen. Katherine Wheatley, Tannis Slimmon and Jude Vadala, all with music careers of their own, decided to join forces to do a show of winter songs. After many pots of tea and hours of meticulously working out harmonies and arrangements of winter-themed original songs and holiday classics, Boreal did its first show. That was thirteen years ago. Each November and December since then, they’ve toured their snowy-season project through community halls and concert series across Ontario. This year however, Jude Vadala is stepping away from the stage. Her humour and heart-wrenching vocals will be deeply missed, but Boreal is excited that Jude will continue composing and arranging for the trio, and also to welcome new member Angie Nussey to the group.
Listen and watch ‘Hey Hosanna’
