Nathan Smith, a local trad music hero and fiddling phenom, will present an evening of original songs and traditional tunes on Oakfield’s intimate stage. Nathan will be joined by long-time bandmate and collaborator Kyle Kirkpatrick (guitar/dobro), a master instrumentalist and singer, and a fellow member of The Barrel Boys.

Nathan Smith is a fiddle player and singer based in Smiths Falls. He is known for his powerful tenor vocal and a playful fiddling style informed by a decades-long journey through numerous genres and traditions. Nathan’s upbeat original compositions reveal the depth of his experience and trace the path of his explorations of bluegrass, old-time, Québécois, and French fiddling.

He is in nearly constant demand as a performer, educator, and session player. Also, he performs regularly with a number of touring ensembles. That includes celebrated bluegrass and roots band The Barrel Boys, award-winning trad superband Vinta, and his duo with banjo player/songwriter Hannah Shira Naiman.

Janie Hickman, owner of Janie h. knits (located just outside the Town of Perth), is once again inviting residents to join her in her goal to knit helmet liners to give warmth to Canadians soldiers who are serving overseas.

According to Janie, her goal is to come up with a thousand helmet liners, which will be included in Christmas boxes for the soldiers. With only a few months left before the holidays, Janie is pressed for time, but with the interest her volunteers have shown in the project, she’s confident that they’ll reach the 1,000 marker in no time.

Add the fact that more and more people are interested in the endeavor, and Janie just might decide to make more warm helmet liners for our troops. She said that the response she’s received from complete strangers wanting to help has been overwhelming.

For the men and women stationed in Afghanistan, these knitted balaclava-type hats can go a long way in providing warmth in the extreme night time conditions of the country. Aside from providing a bit of extra comfort that goes beyond the issued equipment, the hats also give a touch of home, something Canadian soldiers need during the long months of their deployment.
