Vogue Cinema
Live Bait Theatre is excited to launch their 2016-2017 Season with Saltwater Roses. In the 1980s, the group was formed on the Tantramar Marshes. They began as a Beatles cover band but gradually evolved into creating their own sound and music that echoed the nostalgia of early 1970s. Sackville audience favourite Saltwater Roses will present: The Beatles B-Sides on Saturday, October 22nd at the Vogue Cinema. As Live Bait Theatre enters its 28th season on the Tantramar Marshes we look forward to a fantastic evening of music.
Saltwater Roses “transcends the boundaries of musical styles. The songs and performances have a timeless feel and should be appreciated by anybody who likes good pop music.” – Tim Arsenault, Chronicle Herald
Led by vocalist/writer and guitarist Floyd Anderson, Saltwater Roses is a fluid quintet of experienced musicians who have mastered the fine art of constructing and delivering a brisk, punchy and pliant acoustic/electric sound that references enduring artists such as Graham Parker and John Hiatt without sounding slavishly derivative. The rest of the band–Tom Loane on bass, Bob Mahar on keyboards, Greg Doucette on drums, percussionist Peter Gravel and Steve Brown on guitar–play with a responsive, organic feel that easily pre-dates synthesizers and drum machines.
Doors open at 6:45pm, and the show starts at 7:30p.m. Tickets are $20.00 and are available at the Live Bait office. The Live Bait office is located on 62 Main St. in the Sackville Co working Commons (the former RCMP station located behind the former Fire Hall) in Sackville and is open weekdays from 12 noon to 2 p.m. For more information, call 506-536-2248 or visit www.livebaittheatre.com.
