Scott Cook & Second Ch​ances

A roots balladeer with a rare personal warmth, Canada’s Scott Cook has managed to distill the stories collected over a decade of near-incessant touring across Canada, the USA, the UK, Europe, Asia, Australia, and elsewhere into straight-talking, keenly observant verse. He brings humour, a disarming honesty, years of roads, and a deep love of humanity to his songcraft and storytelling. He is equally at home alone on stage, accompanying himself with fingerstyle guitar and clawhammer banjo, or backed by his acoustic trio the Second Chances. Cook’s songs are true stories set to music, drawing on influences from folk, roots, country, soul, and blues. He has made his living playing music full-time since 2007, and despite all the hard miles, he still believes that songs can change your life, and your life can change the world.

He returns to Kelowna with his acoustic trio the Second Chances (Bramwell Park on banjo, mandolin, guitar and harmony vocals, and Melissa Walker on upright bass and harmonies).

w/ opening performance by Nils Loewen

Nils Loewen is a multi-instrumentalist and baritone singer who brings shwanky jazz and original folk tunes to the masses. As a solo performer he will have you tapping your toes or closing your eyes compelled to surrender to the notes. His performance intertwines musicianship, melody,  and audience participation to create a unique experience. 

Nils quickly established himself as a key player in the music scene in Kelowna and performs in multiple ensembles including (but not limited to) Swamp Honey (Trio). Mountain Sound (Trio) and  Fiddle Big Fiddle (Duo). He has mastered the skill and intuition to listen and enhance the performances of those with whom he shares the stage. Whether performing as a solo artist, part of ensemble or volunteering time and energy to community collaborations he brings the same soulful spirit.
