The Waterford Old Town Hall is delighted to present Sarah Harmer, solo, Friday, October 27.

SARAH HARMER is a multi-award-winning platinum-selling musician, and a beloved Canadian folk/ rock mainstay. She will be performing an intimate, solo concert in the Old Town Hall uppoer theatre. The concert will be seated, FCFS. The Hall is fully accessible, and this is an all ages, licensed event.

Are You Gone? – the first new album in a decade from Sarah Harmer – is a deeply
personal and momentous collection of songs motivated by the beauty of life, the
urgency of climate crisis, and the question of loss. The first song “New Low” is more
than a return to music for the internationally celebrated singer-songwriter and
activist: it is a definition of form, a call-for-uprising in the face of global disaster, at
the most critical moment for Harmer to raise her voice – one of the most distinctive
in Canadian music. The vitality of "New Low," its heedless pace, sharp guitars and
exclamatory horns, bely the passage of time since Harmer’s last record, Oh Little
Fire (2010). Nearly twenty years from the release of her debut, You Were Here
(2000), Are You Gone brings a close to Harmer's period of musical quietude with a
rousing artistic statement, rich in detail and emotion, from the heart and for the
spirit.
