» Saskia and Darrel

Tuesday, March 8, 2011
7:30 PM - Moosomin Community Theatre

They are: two veteran musicians, singers, songwriters and entertainers who joined forces ten years ago to create a dazzling musical partnership that is wowing audiences young and old wherever they play. Coming together from widely diverse backgrounds, geo-graphics, and musical tastes, they gave birth to a new adage: "Music Conquers All"

Saskia's rich melodic alto and Darrel's outrageous guitar antics, coupled with a strong bass, penny whistles and amazing harmonies, punch out a fullness seldom achieved by four-piece bands, they give off an energy you can taste in the back of your throat... like ozone from a thunder storm.
