Pull My Strings
To celebrate Multicultural Day, on Sunday, June 27th, an extremely talented group of 17 teenagers from Saline, Michigan, fiddled their way into town. Fiddlers Restrung captivated and etnthralled their crowd of approximately 150 spectators. Through the group's impressive fiddling skills, swift dance moves, and peaceful voices. Fiddlers Restrung brought forth a show full of energy and passion. Goderich was the first stop on the high school students' Great Tour, followed by a performances in London, Niagara Falls, and numerous stops in the United States. Fiddlers Restrung were a great group of talented youth that amazed and inspired their audience! Followed by Fiddlers Restrung was an unplugged concert by Katy Johnston and Benson Brown. These two proved just how multicultural our county is, performing tunes ranging from old-time country, to classical, to folk. The duo captured the crowd's attention and hearts through their impressive improvisations and their lively personalities. These Huron County natives were a great thrill to watch and a pleasure to listen to. The evening was then concluded with a performance by "thatotherchoir". Composed of Huron County performers hand picked by conductor Louise Dockstader, members of "thatotherchoir" hail from Clinton, Blyth, Goderich, Varna, and points in between. Taking their audience from Sea to Sea, "thatotherchoir" threw the audience overboard with their miraculous voices and talented musical skills. This performance had the crowd clapping their hands and stomping their feet to the tunes performed by the choir. Formed over 19 years ago, "thatotherchoir" is one not soon to be forgotten. Wth performances inbcluding Canadian pop, folk, and classical songs, "thatotherchoir" took their audience on a voyage across Canada. This celebration of our country's multiculturalism was a very bright and inspiring journey across "our home and native land." This concert was a huge success and was a ggreat way to showcase the talent and pride that lives right here in our own backyard!
