Out and About

Melding of sacred and secular
Expect plenty of rocking holiday cheer, laced with overtones of Leonard Cohen, Joni Mitchell, The Beatles and more when Allison Crowe, pictured above, launches this year's Tidings tour at the School of Music's D. F. Cook Recital Hall on Friday, Nov. 25, at 8 p.m. The internationally-acclaimed, Corner Brook-based musician stirs together traditional Christmas carols and holiday favourites with an organic blend of rock, jazz, folk and gospel.
