Briar Summers and her band are excited to be returning home to share their latest original pop-rock stylings.

Featuring the talents of Muskoka musicians Jamie Bestwick (bass), Daniel Dennis (cello), J’aime Payne (guitar) and Logan Coey (drums), this special performance promises to be a very memorable one!

Briar Summers’ critically acclaimed debut album, FROM THE ASHES, released in 2021, was produced by three-time Grammy Award-winning producer David Bottrill (Peter Gabriel, Tool, Rush, Crown Lands), and her subtle yet profound single, “Stronger,” has enjoyed airplay both locally and internationally.

Briar Summers is no stranger to the Algonquin stage. You may remember her from such productions as Huntsville: A Choral History and Huntsville High School’s Rock of Ages and Newsies: The Musical.
In the spirit of giving back to the community, proceeds from this event will benefit the Huntsville Hospital Foundation.

Hotel California The Original Tribute To The Eagles When The Eagles stopped to catch their breath a few decades ago, having sold over 100 million records, collected six Grammy’s, and enjoyed six #1 albums, Hotel California began a pioneering journey through their history-making music that has taken them around the globe and thrilled hundreds of thousands of Eagles fans. It’s been a journey they could never have imagined back in 1986, but their dedication, unique musical gifts, and an obsessive commitment to doing this legendary music true justice in performance, set them apart from the many Eagles bands that came after them. Hotel California toured relentlessly from the 80’s straight through to today, setting the standard for world-class tribute productions as they went, and sharing stages with thelikes of The Doobie Bros., Lynyrd Skynyrd, Gretchen Wilson, REO Speedwagon, and many more. From Japan to Dubai, Toronto to Texas, Hotel California has boldly taken the tribute band where none had gone before them, and changed an industry’s collective mind about how good a “tribute” band could really be.
