August 29-Hello, I am part of a Winnipeg-based folk and bluegrass duo called Fire & Smoke. I am contacting you to express our interest in becoming involved with First Friday in the Exchange in a performance capacity. At this time, we are available for the first Friday of October and December. Our electronic press kit, along with samples of our music, is available at www.sonicbids.com/FireSmoke. Our performances generally involve dual vocals, guitar, flute, mandolin, banjo, ukulele, and handheld percussion, and we often incorporate loop pedal into our act as well. Thank you, Claire Morrison
