    COMING UP @ THEATRE COLLINGWOOD

    Date:

    Sharing is SO MUCH APPRECIATED!

    We are thrilled to present Johannes Linstead: From Spain to Cuba, a VERY EXCITING concert at New Life Church on Saturday, January 11th at 3 pm. 

    Johannes Linstead is considered one of the greatest Spanish guitar players ever! We will feature him and his amazing band in this one-show-only event. Tickets would make a great Christmas present or just a wonderful way to warm your heart in January! Tickets will sell fast so please go online or call the office at 705-445-2200 to purchase your tickets today.

    Johannes’ music follows the journey of the guitar, from the exotic sounds of the Mediterranean to the colourful rhythms of the Caribbean. Accompanied by spicy Latin percussion, grooving bass, and soulful accordion, Johannes will set the stage aglow with his Spanish guitar magic! He was named Canada’s “Guitarist of the Year,” has won eight “Best Album” awards, seven top-ten US Billboard charting albums, and was inducted into the L.A.-based Akademia “Hall of Fame”. Johannes Linstead has become recognized internationally as one of the bestselling guitarists in the Instrumental, Latin Jazz and World Music genres. We are so lucky to have him coming to Collingwood!

    Chances are even if you don’t know the name you’ve heard his music. Johannes’ songs have been used in some of the most popular TV shows, such as Miami Housewives, Californication, The Following with Kevin Bacon, Burn Notice, Gene Simmons Family Jewels, Pawn Stars, Person of Interest, and many others. World champion figure skater Stephane Lambiel used Johannes’ song “Zabuca” as part of his choreography during the Winter Olympics, and several of Johannes’ songs were featured in the hugely popular video games Tropical 4 and 5. In December 2019, Johannes’ holiday song, Tropical Christmas, became a verified hit on US radio, charting at #1 for two weeks as the “Most Added” song on the Top 40 New Music Weekly chart, and #1 “Most Increased” song.

    VIDEO: 張哲瀚Zhang Zhehan 紀錄片《八月》

    《八月》是中國演員張哲瀚首次擔任導演的紀錄片,2024年4月14日上線。 該片記錄了張哲瀚在2021年8月突遇網路風暴,演藝人生頃刻被顛倒後的一次自我療愈之旅。 當舞臺與燈光不再,當事業與生活被網路上的不實資訊和惡意扭曲震碎,張哲瀚選擇在兩年後的8月,以自己熱愛的方式向著真實的世界重新出發。從香格里拉到拉薩的騎行之路上,他遇見雪山和冰川,遇見草木牛羊,遇見許多個普通而動人的面孔;他傾聽天地之聲,傾聽陌生人的故事,也傾聽內心的痛和愛。 曾經的8月還未終結,以後的8月依然會來。而這一個《八月》意義非常。 #zhangzhehan_super3 #張哲瀚 #張哲瀚八月 #紀錄片八月 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLwMG6XoJ34&t=11s
