Rob Lutes
Blacksheep Inn, Wakefield QC
Sunday, May 4 @ 4 pm; $10

The Montreal-based, maritime-born artist spent ten years as a writer/editor, before discovering that songwriting and performing was what he was called to do full-time. Evolving his own signature style with his richly textured vocals and earthy feel, Rob steadily gained ground nationally in Canada by playing prestigious festivals such as the Montreal International Jazz Festival, the Ottawa BluesFest and the Stan Rogers Festival. In Canada he has released three CDs – Gravity in 2000, Middle Ground in 2002 and Ride the Shadows in 2006.

Evoking a raw honesty in his voice and the written word, Rob Lutes has gained a following in his native Canada and in the US as a roots musician of substance. Lutes’ lyrically rich and hook-laden songs span the spectrum of Americana influences. His soulful lyrics and vocals, deftly married with his indelible melodies and accomplished musicianship, have established his reputation as a performer of note.
