Rogues’ Gallery – May 2024

Privateers, bootleggers, defiant outlaws, sailors on a spree, and a whole host of seductive charmers appeared at our spring concert, a Rogues’ Gallery in song. On Sunday May 26 at Centretown United Church, Atlantic Voices made bad behaviour sound SO GOOD. It was an afternoon of rolicking music that several of our regular supporters declared our best concert yet!

We celebrated lovable scoundrels and folk heroes who defy society’s rules, and even enjoyed a cameo appearance of our talented EmCee Brien Marshall’s lovable parrot, Cuddlekins!
