The Bray and MacLean Trio will be treating us to an evening of fabulous music at the Carleton Place Gallery, hosted by Mel and Don Bray of Carleton Place.

In brokenness, beauty finds a voice. Healing sings.

This bitter-sweet view is the heart of Bray & MacLean’s songs and performance.

An evening with these artists is a heart-felt outpouring of joy, sorrow, resilience and redemption – often looking at what is difficult or unsettling and speaking truth to shadow.

Throughout, there is a sense of lightness, humour and compassion, a vulnerable and authentic invitation to abandon fear and embrace love.

Both songwriters, Don Bray and Chris MacLean are veteran travellers climbing the steep path towards equanimity – musical and life mileage clearly visible.

The newest member of the trio, Chris Breitner, adds a rich earthy resonance on double bass, and occasional spine-tingling third harmonies.

Through artful musicianship and graceful harmonies, the trio offers a beacon of hope in a world often shrouded in and by our collective darkness.

Show your e-ticket at Stalwart Brewing Company (10 High St.) between 5 an 6 pm on concert night, for a free half-pint. Local tastes will be sold by The Blue Spoon Atelier at the gallery before the concert.
