Event Description

Join Edie DaPonte for a special tribute show which has the audience transported to World War 2 to relive the songs of Vera Lynn, Edith Piaf and Marlene Dietrich and more; voices that offered comfort and hope to forces and civilians alike. Edie pays homage to their classic songs with soaring and stirring renditions and is joined by her spectacular band, celebrated musicians Attila Fias on piano, Joey Smith on bass, Aaron Watson on guitar/accordion and Damian Graham on drums. Through carefully chosen songs, the audience can expect a captivating afternoon of music and storytelling.

Edie brings the element of surprise to every show! Her range and repertoire travel far and wide crossing musical genres and spanning multiple decades and languages. She's equally at home in an intimate lounge setting or on an outdoor festival stage, having established a reputation in the music scene of Vancouver Island and Western Canada as a dynamic and engaging performer.

"For those who’ve seen Daponte many times, it’s always worth going to her shows again and again. For those who’ve never seen her and heard her fabulous singing voice, it’s a must. Edie Daponte's ability to draw large crowds to her performances speaks volumes about her talent and the connection she has with her fans. Regularly performing around the south Island, Daponte has built a significant following, with many attendees returning to experience her captivating shows time and again. Her role in the Chemainus Valley Cultural Arts Society's Sunday Jazz series further highlights her popularity and the consistent appeal of her musical talent"
Don Bodger, Chemainus Valley Courier
