The Junkman’s Choir played several times this past couple weeks, including for the Lethbridge Folk Club at the Moose Hall on Saturday, Dec. 7. 
Because I missed those shows, I made a point of catching this innovative local band at the Owl Acoustic Lounge, Dec. 14.
As always they played a hot set of music blending everything including jazz, country , Celtic music, folk and pop music for an enthusiastic audience.
Megan Brown played a lot of frenetic, food stomping fiddle over top of excellent vocal harmonies and seamless interplay between a variety of different instruments including guitars, stand up bass a cello and saxophone.
I arrived in the middle of an excellent cover of Bruce Springsteen’s ‘I’m On Fire’ featuring Megan Brown singing lead vocals. Her voice reminded me of Texas troubadour Tif Ginn.
George Fowler played guitar and cello and added excellent vocals, Ross Samuel switched between guitar and saxophone while Steve Martin held down the bottom end on stand up bass while Isaac Neufeld kept the beat.
One of the more world music/ French Celtic/ cajun songs had the crowd clapping along during the second set. Brown sang a sexy version of ’90s hit “Sex and Candy.’
