Events Description

 

John Prine is widely cited as one of the most influential songwriters of his generation. Prine was known for humorous lyrics about love, life, and current events, as well as his serious songs with social commentary and songs that recollect sometimes melancholy tales from his life.

Join us as we celebrate, elaborate the beautiful songs of one of the finest songwriters of our generation. In Spite of Ourselves brings together some fine Canadian songwriters and friends to enjoy stories and songs about the fabulous John Prine.

Join Blair Packham (The Jitters), Bill Craig (The Irish Rovers) Kirsten Jones and two-time JUNO nominee Johnny Max, as they perform and present their favourite and quirky John Prine songs.

According to songwriter Bob Dylan, “Prine’s stuff is pure Proustian existentialism, Midwestern mindtrips to the nth degree… AND he writes beautiful songs”.
