Events

The Muskoka Discovery Centre in Gravenhurst is hosting Artist Life Stories – Speaker Series with a Twist. Tickets $60 person for an intimate evening with Canadian Artists. Each event is like a perfectly mixed cocktail. Two parts conversation, one-part live music, one-part question and answer and splashed with a dash of the unexpected. Each evening includes 2 – 40 interview sets and ends with a post-show meet and greet. And everyone comes away with the story behind the artist.

Rik Emmett: Lay It On The Line – A Backstage Pass to Rock Star Adventure, Conflict and Triumph

Rik’s journey through a life of music is explored. Starting as the lead singer/songwriter/guitarist with Triumph from 1975 to 1988, five gold & platinum decades in the music biz (across many musical genres) got him into five Halls and two Walks of Fame, with a few ‘Best Guitarist’ awards in various categories garnered along the way. A published poet, his “Reinvention” collection came out on ECW Press in 2021, followed by his memoir in the fall of 2023. While retired from touring, Rik continues to write and record for releases.
