Peggy Van Zalm
Saturday, 11 July 2009
7:00 PM
$35 includes 2 course meal We are very excited to have one of our old favourites Peggy Van Zalm back to play at Bent on Food. She will play with Geoff Nant on percussion and the delightful Sandra Kwa on piano. For those of you in my age group who have heard her in her past life as lead singer of Martha's Vineyard, this will be a beautiful stroll down memory lane. If you haven’t heard Peggy play before, you will not be disappointed, we are lucky to have such talent in our very own backyard. For $35 you can eat, relax and listen to the dreamy sounds of Peggy and co. BYO. Book now as tickets are selling fast.
"... Van Zalm has the kind of voice that makes you go dreamy. Vowels soar, consonants gracefully glide, and the songs come together as elegant emissaries of a rich and talented musician" Review By Alex Green.
