Keremeos91Ƶ Grist Mill and Gardens has turned out a concert lineup packed with award winners and nominees for the coming summer.

The season kicks off with modern-day storytellers Tiller91Ƶs Folly on June 30. Drawing influence from Scottish, Irish and Maritime music traditions, Tiller91Ƶs Folly continue to expand and refine their potent blend of Pacific Canadiana.

On July 8, Kym Gouchie brings her ancestral roots in Lheidli T91Ƶenneh, Cree and Secwépemc Nations to Keremeos, alongside her traditional hand drum, acoustic guitar and powerful voice.

91ƵHer music brings awareness to First Nations and women91Ƶs issues, promoting reconciliation and community building while reminding us that we are all in this together,91Ƶ reads the Grist Mill91Ƶs description of Gouchie91Ƶs concert.

Juno Award-winners Big Little Lions will play at the Gardens on July 15. The folk-pop duo91Ƶs six albums have earned them recognition and awards, from CFMA Ensemble of the Year to Song of the Year in the John Lennon songwriting competition.

Born in Horsefly, B.C., Marin Patenaude, the daughter of musical parents, was raised on folk, country and classic rock. Coming to the Gardens on July 29 with two albums to her name so far, Patenaude91Ƶs folk style is inspired by nature and human connection.

Grammy-winning Bluegrass musician John Reischmann brings his Jaybirds along with him on Aug. 6. The group is now in their 20th year, with seven albums and two more Juno nominations under their belts.

From performing on Canadian streets to CTV91Ƶs The Launch, Ben Cottrill will be playing the Grist Mill on Aug. 12. Cottrill has worked with Bryan Adams.

On September 1, the Gardens hosts a double-feature with Sarah Jane Scouten and Elise and Adam. Scouten is a four-time Canadian Folk Music Award nominee, with a sound that blends vintage folk and country music and modern topics.

A founding member of indie-folk band Fish & Bird, Adam Iredale-Gray is a versatile guitarist and fiddler with deep roots in Irish traditional music,. He is joined by fiddler Elise Boeur, who91Ƶs musical traditions hail from Norwegian and Swedish fiddle music.

Raine Hamilton closes out the slate of summer shows on Sept. 2. A classical violinist, Hamilton will perform his unique combination of string-quarter style chamber music with singer-songwriter folk songs.

Tickets are available online at the Grist Mill for $20 each, except for Reischmann91Ƶs concert which is $30 a ticket.
