About the Band

From the rocky shores of Newfoundland, The Navigator’s formed in 2000 based on a unique combination of baritone voices and instrumentalists into a folk band that is as much known for its own original contemporary trad as it is for the traditional music. With four full studio albums, Bay Bulls Cove (2023); Soldiers and Sailors (2011); Sea Miner (2009), Dance and Sing (2001), and a number of other recording contributions, the group has toured all of Canada, much of the US and Europe. 

As Music NL’s  Award for Folk/Roots Group of the Year (2002), the band has created a name and following across the province that just gets stronger every year.  As part of the successful “Celtic Christmas” The Navigators have enjoyed 13 years of touring NL and even put together a popular CD of the same name along with The Irish Descendant’s (2010).

The band’s first CD Dance and Sing was the longest running #1 selling CD at Fred’s Record’s in St. John’s, holding the spot for almost a full decade and is still the #4 best selling CD of all time!  In 2021, The Navigator’s were invited to record a song from the Broadway musical Come From Away by its producers. Their version of Welcome to the Rock became an instant favourite and was released early as a part of Apple TVs movie version of the musical

About

FREE BEER is a comedy duo which toured through Newfoundland and Labrador as well as the Maritimes and Quebec, making occasional appearances in places as far flung as New York City, Toronto, Montreal and too many pubs, clubs, frat houses and school auditoriums to recount. For their brief three years together, 1979 to ’82, they kept audiences laughing and entertained with their unique original skits, songs and irreverent comic take on culture at the time. Always self deprecating and clever, theirs was an original style that opened the doors for other musical comedy acts to follow. Their experience laid the groundwork for each partner to move onto much greater careers.

Chris Elliott adopted his second name as his stage moniker and went on to be widely known across Canada and the USA as comedian Lorne Elliott. He earned a coveted position as host and creator of the CBC radio program “Madly Off in all Directions” which enjoyed a 14-year run. For more than 30 years his solo act entertained in theatres all across the country. Kevin Blackmore was a founding member of the musical comedy trio Buddy Wasisname and the Other fellers who for 37 years toured Canada doing sold out shows in over 360 towns and cities, earning the trio each honorary doctorates from Memorial University of NL and a standing membership in the Order of Canada.

Having but one LP recording to account for those early years there isn’t much more recorded of their presentations from the early 80’s aside from two 45rpm demos and a one-hour Cable TV presentation. Their one record was titled “Clueless”.

Having for some time been retired, the b’ys decided to put the old duo back together for another few shows to see what might be left to resurrect. This is an older- seasoned and savvy approach. There’s a little more melancholy, not the flat-out zaniness of years ago, a reflection of all the life lived in the 42 years since they laid their tools on the bench.

Still fun, still clever, still entertaining, and more experienced than back then, it’s “Free Beer, Still Clueless.” The lads will be accompanied by “Peanuts”, two musicians to bolster the musical end of things. Al Henderson is a jazz bassist who has toured throughout Canada and the USA playing in ensembles which have included some of the era’s greatest jazz players. He’s also an associate professor of Music at York University. Toronto. Bruce Boehler is a guitar whiz, a multi-instrumentalist who has worked for 30 years in the pubs and dance halls of Western Canada in bands doing pop and modern music. His skills are prodigious.

It’s Free Beer and Peanuts.
