Award winning Fredericton group, The Hypochondriacs are live at Charlotte Street Arts Centre Friday, February 17th. Along with special guest, Maude Sonier.
The Hypochondriacs have resurrected from the traditional country genre, to a fresh and raw take to the standard genre. Though profoundly influenced by early Rockabilly, a taste of 60’s doo-wop & 70’s folk-rock.
The band has opened for Lukas Nelson and the Promise of the Real, Corb Lund & Trooper, The Reverend Horton Heat to name a few.
From an early age, singer-songwriter Maude Sonier has found pleasure, comfort and wonder in music. Originally from Miramichi, New Brunswick, she first began her musical journey at classical music festivals in her region. Around the age of 12, she will finally combine her two great passions; writing and composition, from which his very first original songs were born.
