Harry Hannah Bio
Harry Hannah is an independent folk singer-songwriter from Northumberland, Ontario — or as some call him, “The Cobourg Folkster.” With a rugged charm and a heart as soft as a Doberman’s chew toy, Harry’s built a name for himself skinny dipping by riversides, running wild with rabbits and wolves, and howling his songs from Northumberland to Alberta.
Currently based in Baltimore, Ontario, Harry is pouring blood, sweat, and tears into his next “folk’d up creation.” Winner of the Emerging Artist Showcase at North of Nowhere, his journey from small-town stages to the spotlight is just getting started.
Shaun Savoy Bio
Shaun Savoy is a dynamic performer, known for channeling legends from Garth Brooks to Freddie Mercury with passion and precision. Former frontman of The Spirits, Shaun has shared the stage with Trooper, Tom Cochrane, The Tea Party, Alannah Myles, Big Sugar, Levon Helm, and more.
He now brings his powerhouse vocals and charisma to the Vinyl Groovz Band, performing hits from the 50s to today. Whether it’s an intimate crowd or thousands, Shaun always leaves fans wanting more.
