With over twenty years on the road and fifteen albums to his name, Nova Scotia’s Dave Gunning is one of Canada’s most respected folk singer-songwriters. A multiple ECMA and Canadian Folk Music Award winner, he’s celebrated for his warm stage presence, sharp wit, and songs that honour everyday heroes while speaking honestly about the world around us.

Deeply rooted in Pictou County, Gunning’s music tells the stories of working people, small-town resilience, and community pride. His live performances weave heartfelt storytelling with perfectly timed humour, creating an intimate, engaging experience that feels both genuine and profoundly human.

Having shared stages with legends like Ron Hynes, Rita MacNeil, and Matt Andersen, Gunning continues to forge his own path, grounded in craftsmanship and connection. His upcoming album, Field Notes—recorded in Point Lonsdale, Australia and set for release in Feb. 2026—returns to the stripped-back, emotionally rich songwriting that has long defined his work.

Join Dave for an evening of stories, songs, and songs of life lived fully, as he celebrates the release of Field Notes with a performance that promises to be heartfelt, moving, and memorable.

Special Guest: Rose Morrison 

Rose Morrison is a Cape Breton–based fiddler and singer-songwriter whose pure and powerful voice captivates audiences. She has performed internationally, including twice at Carnegie Hall, and collaborated with artists such as Glen Hansard, Breanndán Ó Beaglaoich, and John McDermott. Her debut solo album as a singer-songwriter, The River She Knows, established her as a compelling storyteller. Currently, she is performing new songs inspired by her 2025 Artist-in-Residence residency on Sable Island and is writing her next album based on that experience. Rose loves collaborating with Dave Gunning and will be joining him for this special show, bringing these songs to the stage.
