2024 - 2025 Season

Alias Brass

Sunday, Dec. 15, 2024 at 2 PM

These five virtuoso musicians will be delivering a show certain to capture the essence of the holiday season in an excitingly unique genre. Since 2013, Alias Brass’ mission has been to expand the traditional boundaries of the brass quintet and indeed, the mission is succeeding. From Baroque and Classical, the group moves easily to jazz, pop and what has been dubbed “chamber music of the future.” Diverse and innovative, Alias Brass has strived to engage its audiences through varying cultural, gender and global influences. Members of the Alias Brass Company also teach at workshops, seminars and in classrooms. But its heart and soul is performing – hundreds of concerts from Canada to Brazil and every corner of the United States – where they have honed their singular entertainment experience.

The Wardens

Saturday, Feb. 22, 2025, at 7 PM

With The Wardens, it’s all about the stories. Yes, they are musicians, but band founders Scott Ward and Ray Schmidt, as well as fiddler Scott Duncan, have been employed in the national parks of Canada for decades as, yes, wardens. These real-life stewards of the land have written songs, mostly in a country/western style, that chronicle their adventures in the wilderness. Whether the stories be about a daring rescue mission or a humorous encounter with a bear, what always comes through is their love, appreciation and advocacy for the world’s natural wonders. They make it visual as well, performing in front of a screen depicting their work environs and other enhancements to their storytelling. They’ve been recognized for their performing talents at the Canadian Folk Music Awards and have four albums to their credit. But shortly after a winter of concerts, in the spring, they will be heading back to work.

The Paperboys

Saturday, March 29, 2025, 7 PM

Safe to say, after three decades and 4,000-plus shows, The Paperboys are musical icons of the Pacific Northwest. The Celtic folk band that singer-songwriter-guitarist Tom Landa founded in Vancouver, B.C., in 1991 now incorporates bluegrass, Mexican and zydeco – to name just a few influences – in its notoriously feel-good show. They have produced 10 albums, written scores for movies and tour periodically across Europe. But the six-member ensemble mostly has a reputation among its devoted Northwest followers as simply a great, live band. Fronted by Landa, Geoffrey Kelley on flute and guitar, and Karissa Landa on fiddle – all three providing vocals – The Paperboys have been critically acclaimed in music magazines on both sides of the border, as well as on NPR and the CBC. But Port Ludlow will feel like a hometown show.

Barbra Lica Quintet

Saturday, April 26, 2025 at 7 PM

Barbra Lica’s voice first drew widespread attention when she placed first runner-up at the Sarah Vaughn International Jazz Competition in 2013. That signature sound now has been the centerpiece of seven albums, mostly of her original music, and countless tours and jazz festivals from Tokyo to Montreal. Bright and vibrant on one song, breathy and lilting the next, Lica varies the mood, from light and funny to heartfelt and heartbreaking. In addition to her own piano-playing, depth is provided by her touring partners on bass, guitar, keyboards and drums. An appealing performer who enjoys opening up to her audiences, the Toronto-born artist hasn’t slowed down in the studio, either. Her eclectic 2024 album of jazz, folk, pop, and rhythm and blues – Impostor Syndrome – earned two nominations from the Canadian Folk Music Awards.
