We are very excited to share that the Light the Way; a concert in candle light along with the fabulous Rostova String quartet will have a special guest musician at each performance this year!!

On Saturday, November 15 Ian Janes
(https://www.ianjanes.com/) will perform with the quartet. Ian draws from Soul, R&B, Pop, Jazz and more, but truly has his own compelling voice as a singer, songwriter, guitarist and producer.

A 9x East Coast Music Award nominee/winner and ‘Album of the Year’ winner from Music Nova Scotia, his music has been featured on CMT, Nickelodeon, HBO and NBC. Early in his career, Macleans magazine listed him as one of 100 Canadians to watch, predicting his enduring career.

In 2023-24 Ian’s songs ‘Everything Right’ and ‘Amnesia’ were sampled by multi-platinum selling Canadian hip hop legend Classified for his latest Juno and ECMA nominated album, ‘Luke’s View’, with ‘Amnesia’ winning the 2025 ECMA for ‘single of the year’

On Sunday, November 16 Cory Tetford (http://www.corytetford.com/) will join the quartet. Performing since the age of 3, Cory has lived a life of music. Born into a musical family, he toured his home province of Newfoundland and Labrador with his 2 brothers and father performing gospel music.

As a side man, Cory toured Canada and the USA with Damhnait Doyle, as well, played with "The Man Of A Thousand Songs," Ron Hynes. Recently, Cory has been touring with Alan Doyle of Great Big Sea as his guitar player since 2012.

Cory released a solo record in 1999 that garnered him the Newfoundland and Labrador Arts Council Emerging Artist award and the 2000 MIANL Male Artist of the Year Award.

In 2000, Cory formed the Warner recording act Crush with fellow Newfoundlander Paul Lamb. The band toured Canada, and released 2 records. The band was nominated for a Juno and won 8 ECMAs.

Cory's much anticipated second solo record, "In the Morning," was released November 24th, 2016, and he also released an EP "Road Songs" on December 23, 2020, as well as a single "A Little Rain" on February 8, 2022. Cory will be touring these records in and around tours with Alan Doyle and the Beautiful Beautiful Band. Cory also works out of his studio engineering, producing and mixing records.

100% of the proceeds from this concert will go to the North Grove a dynamic community hub in the heart of Dartmouth North that offers programs, services and space for people to learn and connect through family support, food and friendship.
