The Montreal Guitar Trio surprises, amazes, exalts, and ignites audiences with their dynamic and breathtaking stage presence.

In Inuktitut, a “piqsiq” is a storm where the snow seems as if it is falling back up towards the sky. PIQSIQ will be joined by Oh Pray Tell with their original, soulful sound influenced by gospel, rhythm & blues, roots music and folk storytelling.
