Hailing from O’Leary on the west side of Prince Edward Island, The Grass Mountain Hobos are coming to Abbotsford this Wednesday November 11th.  Check them out at the Duke of Dublin Irish Pub at 8pm.

Here some information about The Hobos straight from their CBC Radio Three profile:

“With a stage show that harkens back to the days of the travelling salesman, The Hobos are the cure-all elixir for those requiring entertainment. Their brand of music is authentic and complex, mixing equal parts of the carnival, farm, tavern and circus. Two acoustic guitars, a banjo, mandolin, doghouse bass and a fiddle create the unique backdrop over which the 6 vocalists paint malevolent yet harmonious works of art.“

If you miss them in Abbotsford, you can catch them on one of their other British Columbia dates before they head back to the Maritimes. The catch is that these dates are in Kelowna and the Kootenays.
