Aengus Finnan is the new face of folk music Brush with Art is a grass roots initiative that provides direct financial support to the Canadian Clay and Glass Gallery and the Kitchenerâ€" Waterloo Art Gallery, endows a visual arts fund for the community, and seeds an annual â€" campaign. This Brush with Art will be awarding its first visual arts grant at the end of its campaign year in May. Continued from page 12 kid, a kid that I tried to make a connection with and I tried to help out. He was so angry, upset and worked up about everything, that eventually one day he hit me in class. He called me that night to apoloâ€" gize and explain to me that his dad had left years ago and that 1 reminded him of his dad and that was why he had lashed out against me. I knew the feelings and I knew the _ story _ because _ I had gone through it myself. I sat in my apartment in Moosonee after I‘d hung up the phone, and I realized that was the first tender moment I had had in that town. Someone had actually said sorry about something and shared a personal story. 1 looked out over the Polar Express tracks and the dirt road that he lived along and basically just told my story through his eyes." Brush With Art awards its first visual arts grant Finnan recalled he wasn‘t angry when he was writing Fly Away. It just "poured out". "This was a way to express something that I had never acted on, after 1 mulled around for years with it in my head. I was seeing it come out a different way. The way for me to finally vocalize my feelings on the same subject was through his story, and by bringing out the searching and the anger and the quesâ€" tions, and placing it into a song," he saud Finnan‘s Fool‘s Gold is a fascinating blend of folk and theatreâ€"folk drama. _ The striking troubadour has perâ€" formed his songs from Newfoundland to Vancouver Island, singing his songs for Elder Hostel in Whitehorse and inmates at the Kingston penitentiary. He has shared concert stages with Garnet Rogers, Stephen Fearing, and Tamarack _ and James Keelaghan. Finnan grew up listening to the words of folk heroes Gordon Lightfoot and Stan Rogers. Perhaps the next generation of folk music enthusiasts will say, "I grew up listening to the ‘ink and blood‘ of Aengus Finnan." Aengus Finnan and his band of Warfaring Strangers, with opening act Mike Erb, perform "A Food Bank Concert" at the Registry Theatre, Feb 9 at 8 p.m. Tickets are $10 in advance, $14 at the door, and $12 with a nonâ€"perishable food item.
