Stephen Fearing in Charlottetown, February 9, 2025

Peter Rukavina

Canadian folk music legend Stephen Fearing is playing the Trailside in Charlottetown on February 9, 2025.

I haven’t seen Fearing play for a decade: the last time was in Sackville, NB, on the day Catherine was diagnosed with incurable cancer. In other words, a lot of water has flowed under my bridge since.

I first encountered Stephen Fearing on the radio, when I interviewed him for Trent Radio in the late 1980s. We were both in our 20s: he was already an accomplished singer-songwriter with an album under his belt; I was a inexperienced interviewer who fell back on incurious formulaic questions. But I became a fan in the process, and have been one ever since.

You will not be disappointed by this show.
