Hawksley Workman (2016)


Hawksley Workman

May 13-14, 2016

harbourfront centre theatre, toronto

A force to be reckoned with in Canada's music landscape, Hawksley Workman blurs the lines between rock music, cabaret and theatre.  Workman collaborated with Art of Time Ensemble to create a Songbook program (our tenth) like none we had done before. The multi-instrumentalist and singer dove into the discography of a musician who inspired Workman on his rise to the top of the Canadian pop music scene; Bruce Cockburn.
