All the way from Prince Edward Island, Canada, singer, songwriter and published author sensation TARA MACLEAN will visit Green Note, intertwining performances of her music with readings from her debut book, Song of the Sparrow.
Canadian singer/songwriter Tara MacLean has been an internationally renowned and award-winning recording and touring music artist for over 25 years. Last year, Tara received the Stompin’ Tom award by the East Coast Music Association, marking an outstanding contribution to music in the region.
Tara MacLean is an environmental and social justice activist, a zen student, a poet, author and a playwright. She resides in her home province of Prince Edward Island, and also lives on Salt Spring Island, BC. She considers herself bi-coastal. Her first book, Song of the Sparrow, hit the Best Seller List the week it was released and Tara quickly followed up with “Sparrow” – the soundtrack for the book.

With support from BASSET
Canadian folk duo, Basset, are full of timeless heart, with stunning duo harmonies reminiscent of the early folk revival, and deeply human lyrics that blend age-old stories and myths with modern everyday life. Their live performances are both sincere and disarmingly funny, with warmth enough to soothe anyone ready to lean in.
Their cinematic début album ‘In the Clay’ was nominated for a Canadian Folk Music Award, and earned nods from NPR and the CBC, plus a performance at Celtic Connections in 2023. The band will land in the UK with their brand-new record ‘One of Many’.
Doors open 7pm. Music starts 8.30pm. The venue is mixed seated and standing. Tables are limited and available on a first come first served basis so, if you’d like a seat, we recommend arriving early!
