3 Questions

Every Friday we add a new edition of "3 Questions" where we feature special performers who are part of our facebook fan page. Many of them have performed here at the Glesby and it is our goal to have many others here in the future at one of their own concerts. We hope that you'll check out their websites and their music. Get to know them better. I would encourage you to listen to some of their music, pick up one of their CD's, and catch them at a live concert if you can.
The Glesby Centre has a reputation as being one of the finest rural performance venues in Manitoba and we work hard to promote great music and great performers such as the ones you'll get to know here.
Go ahead...check them out!

Week 1: Heather Bishop
Week 2: ENNIS
