- **Event Description**: (English follows)

Le groupe The Dusty Drifters a vu le jour à Ottawa en 2008. Après avoir animé pendant plusieurs années les célèbres « Bluegrass Sundays » chez Irene’s, il est devenu l’un des groupes de bluegrass les plus appréciés et les plus reconnus de la région. Depuis, il a sorti un album et s’est produit dans de nombreux festivals locaux, où il ne cesse de conquérir des fans de tous âges à chaque concert. Son style, à mi-chemin entre le bluegrass et la nouvelle musique acoustique, mêle des arrangements revisités de grands classiques et des compositions originales. Le groupe est composé de Paul Roberto (guitare, chant principal), Stuart Rutherford (dobro, violon, chant), Anthony Bacon (banjo, violoncelle, chant), Brent Weatherall (basse, chant) et Gilles Leclerc (mandoline, chant).

La musique de Jake l’a conduit sur toutes les scènes d’Amérique du Nord, notamment au Festival international Celtic Colours et au célèbre Station Inn de Nashville. En 2021-2022, Jake a sillonné la scène bluegrass américaine en tant que membre à part entière du groupe de bluegrass « Nothin’ Fancy », basé en Virginie, où il jouait de la guitare solo et chantait en ténor. En 2023, il a eu l’honneur de se joindre aux légendes de la musique folk canadienne J.P. Cormier et Dave Gunning lors de leur tournée « Leather and Dust » à travers le Canada. On peut écouter Jake jouer de la guitare en solo sur sa chaîne YouTube « FretwearTV ».

  L’été 2026 verra la sortie de son premier album solo intitulé *Live Another Day*. Sur cet album, Jake interprète ses propres compositions et joue de la guitare, de la mandoline, du banjo et de la basse sur différents morceaux. L’album met également en vedette de nombreux grands noms de la scène musicale canadienne en tant qu’artistes invités.

The Dusty Drifters emerged out of Ottawa in 2008. Spending several years hosting the popular Bluegrass Sundays at Irene’s they became one of the region’s most celebrated and recognized Bluegrass bands. They’ve since produced an album and have played many local festivals where they continue to gain fans of all ages with each appearance. Their bluegrass/new acoustic sound is filled with a mixture of fresh arrangements of old favourites and original songs. The lineup includes Paul Roberto (guitar, lead vocals), Stuart Rutherford (Dobro, fiddle, vocals), Anthony Bacon (banjo, cello, vocals), Brent Weatherall (Bass, vocals), and Gilles Leclerc (mandolin, vocals)

Jake’s music has taken him all across the North American stage, including performances at the Celtic Colours International Festival, and Nashville’s renowned Station Inn. In 2021/2022, Jake toured the American Bluegrass scene as a core member of the Virginia-based bluegrass band ‘Nothin’ Fancy,’’ playing lead guitar and singing tenor vocals. In 2023, he was honoured to join Canadian Folk legends J.P. Cormier and Dave Gunning on their cross-Canada ‘Leather and Dust’ tour. Jake’s solo guitar playing can be heard on his YouTube channel ‘FretwearTV.’ 

  Summer 2026 comes the release of his first solo album titled Live Another Day. On the album Jake is singing his original songs, playing guitar, mandolin, banjo & bass on different tracks. The album also features many Canadian greats in supporting roles.
