THE MONDAY NIGHT PROJECT;
Jan Peters ~ Vocalist, Mandolin, Harmonicas
Maggie Kavanagh ~ Vocalist
Brian Cunningham ~ Guitars
Tom Anastasio ~ Bass
Julian MacDonough ~ Drummer on 'These Waters' ~ Thank You Julian ! (Julian now lives in Albuquerque)
So named from the days when The Monday Night Project had hordes of dancing and joyous bodies packed into Boundary Bay Brewery every Monday night for almost 5 years !
We play original songs formed out of Bluegrass, Caribbean, Soul, and Blues Traditions, and whatever else we can get our hands on. The covers we do are eclectic, mostly, although at weddings its a blast to lay down some Van Morrison, or a bit of Otis Redding. We now have an all acoustic very Bluegrassy version of this band when wanted for weddings or parties with acoustic bass and fine fiddle for hire.
We have played weddings and celebrations of all kinds in the region for almost ten years. From the San Juan Islands, to Wenatchee or Seattle, we've been around and still are as we take time to write and develop new material ~
