Pat Temple - A much-loved return performer to the Near North, Pat Temple and his brotherhood of stellar players are gearing up and excited to present their infectious and original music once again this spring, throughout central and northern Ontario, Canada.
With thirty years of stage time to hone his craft, Pat Temple has developed an impressive and unique style of music and is recognized widely as a mainstay in the Canadian live music scene.
In addition to performing at major folk and roots festivals across Canada, Pat has been a feature act at Massey Hall, The National Art Gallery, Canadian National Exhibition, and has received positive reviews and interviews from CBC Radio, The Toronto Star, The Ottawa Citizen, The Winnipeg Free Press, The Vancouver Sun, among others. He has also appeared live on MuchMusic Television and CBC Radio.
Merging the sounds of rockabilly from the genre’s golden era with a crooning style like no other, at 20 years old Nicholas Campbell has gained himself a reputation as “the real deal”.
Campbell first picked up the guitar at age 10 and was gigging by 11. Having found a fresh start during the pandemic, Nicholas began playing consistently with his band, The Meter Cheaters, who quickly rediscovered their groove as live shows began to become an option once again and they wasted no time in seizing the opportunity. The band worked to release Campbell’s debut album Livin' and Other Western Ideas in 2021, combining elements of rockabilly, western swing, and good old-fashioned honky tonk. The result was a brisk, invigorating album that feels as fresh as it does familiar.
