Fall is here. Each night I take in the geraniums from my deck, in case we get some frost over night and each morning I put them out again because the weather has been so nice during the day.

On Oct. 6 the Kaleidoscope concert series kicks off its season with two shows for the price of one! Middle Coast’s impressive and engaging live sets have already earned them heaps of accolades – including the “Favourite New Band” distinction from Winnipeg weekly The Uniter – in addition to billings at CMW, Cavendish Beach Music Festival and the Winnipeg Folk Festival, where they received the Rising Star award. They’ve also been tapped to open for The Sheepdogs and, on an upcoming 2016 fall tour, Michael Bernard Fitzgerald. Which is why our date at the Roxy had to be changed to Oct. 6.
