Marc Atkinson is one of Canada’s finest JUNO-nominated, Western Canadian award-winning musicians and he will be bringing his Marc Atkinson Trio to the Tidemark Theatre Feb. 24 at 7:30 p.m.
His latest CD of solo guitar entitled ‘Solo’ won best instrumental album of the year with CFMA. He is the leader and composer of the internationally renowned Marc Atkinson Trio (and co-founder, composer and performer in the acclaimed folk ensumble, The Bills). The music of this virtuosic group is melodically captivating, sensually charged and ferociously, technically, awe-inspiring.

When he is not touring, he is the busy producer of music at his home studio ‘The Barn Studio’ having recorded over 100 albums.
