Recognized by his peers as one of Canada’s best performing songwriters, Lennie Gallant has released nine albums (seven in English and two in French) which have won him a host of awards and nominations from both the JUNO Awards and East Coast Music Awards. His last album, "When We Get There" was nominated for a JUNO Award and went into space aboard Space Shuttle Endeavour in July 2009. Canadian astronaut Julie Payette chose the album for the astronaut crew of Mission STS-127 to enjoy while on their 16 day mission. As a performer, Gallant’s intense delivery reaches down to the very soul of his audience, moving effortlessly through stirring narratives, comic observations, and hard driving rhythms.
He has just released two brand new albums, one in English If We Had A Fire and one in French Le coeur hante´.
Plays at The Homburg Theatre, 8 p.m.
