NEWS RELEASE
ROOTS NORTH MUSIC FESTIVAL
********************

The Roots North Music Festival is thrilled to welcome Orillia native Craig Mainprize to the 2020 mainstage lineup at the St. Paul’s Centre, in the heart of Orillia, for the 6th Annual Roots North Music Festival.

From his early days in the indie rock collective, Jetplanes of Abraham, through four solo albums, artist Craig Mainprize “continues to evolve, fearlessly and confidently refining his identity with each new release.” Over the years, he has shared the stage with groups such as Metric, Hey Rosetta, Do Make Say Think, and Rock Plaza Central.

The common thread in Mainprize’s musical career is a deep appreciation of folk music and the poetics of songwriting. The lush atmospheric arrangements of his recordings are part of the beauty of Mainprize’s songs, but it is his powerful voice and attention to song craft that truly shine in his solo performances.

The Roots North Music Festival is slated for April 23-25 in downtown Orillia, with main stage events happening at St. Paul's Centre.

Weekend passes are available now at Alleycats Music & Art, Downtown Orillia or buy online at www.RootsNorthMusic.ca
