We had such a wonderful time at our 2024 sold out performance with the East Coast’s beloved traditional folk duo, Evans and Doherty, that we couldn’t resist inviting them back!
Kevin Evans and Brian Doherty have been an integral part of the East Coast music scene for over four decades, and have been together as Evans & Doherty for 40 years. To capture the essence of an Evans & Doherty performance, take a lively blend of traditional, original and contemporary songs, add a liberal sprinkling of stories and humour, then sit back and enjoy these fine entertainers.
As well as performing front and center on stage, Evans & Doherty are involved with many aspects of the music industry. Brian owns and operates Eastern Entertainment Agency, a booking agency and production company which coordinates tours of Atlantic Canada for many Canadian and international acts. Kevin owns and operates Modtrad Music, a publishing company, through which much of the material performed by the duo is published and licensed.
As a songwriter and producer, Kevin has enjoyed success; his song “Christmas Memories” achieved platinum status in Canada for John McDermott. Tommy Makem and Liam Clancy recorded “The Orchard”, another of Kevin’s songs. Stompin’ Tom Connors recorded Kevin’s “Silver Sea”, a great compliment considering Stompin’ Tom didn’t usually record other people’s material.
Start your St. Patrick’s Day celebrations a few days early with Evans & Doherty at your Chester Playhouse!
