Jennifer Holub and Drftr- Live at Little Montreal
Jennifer Holub and DRFTR Live at little Montreal Bar & Deli (Sudbury, ON) Pay What You Can (Suggested donation $5-10) Music at 9 pm 19+ Jennifer Holub Music- Jennifer's music that tells our stories: the tales of the ghostly north.

What began as a way to maintain a bit of sanity, of making sense of the things happening in his world, has evolved into a rich and diverse repertoire. Drawing from experience – growing up in small town Ontario, working the oil fields of Alberta, living in a South African village – DRFTR has created a portfolio of thoughtful, memorable and inspiring music. His indie rock style has matured over the past...
