But this time, Kerri’s coming to BobCat as a solo artist as she does a series of house concerts across Ontario in support of her debut solo album, One Day Soon. She released that record in February and toured Atlantic Canada opening for Royal Wood before resuming her duties as a Lovely. About her album One Day Soon: "Anchored by an airy, intimate take on pop-tinged folk, the album is ripe with compelling foils – sometimes somber, sometimes sweet; sometimes wistful, others whimsical."
You will hear elements of Good Lovelies in her solo songs, of course. But you’ll also hear new sounds and musical ideas that are uniquely her own.
Kerri is touring this time with guitarist Christine Bougie. Christine is a sought after side-player who you may have seen alongside Bahamas on tour or on one of the late-night talk shows, or on her own. Her style is more on the atmospheric than the virtuosic, creating musical textures and colours on electric guitar or lap steel that complement the music, rather than show off technical wizardry.

As a solo artist and composer, Bougie has released four albums of instrumental music. In August 2019, she released Love Songs with the Queer Songbook Orchestra on 7” vinyl, which features two of her lap steel compositions, backed by a 10 piece chamber orchestra.
Kerri and Christine will make an evening of musical friendship that you will remember for a long time.

hmm
One of the great things about 3 wheel electric scooter with seat is that they are so quiet and non-offensive in crowded places – listen to the birds as you ride!
