With an incredibly talented lineup of 20 shows, there’s something to delight everyone, regardless of age.

Huntsville, known for its breathtaking scenery, will be transformed into laid-back stages as local beaches, parks and farms become the backdrop for these unique performances. As the flames dance and the sunsets, beautiful music will fill the air, blending harmoniously with the awe-inspiring landscapes Muskoka is renowned for.

The best part? Even if Mother Nature throws a curveball with a fire ban, the show will go on. Alternate plans are in place to ensure the music doesn’t stop, guaranteeing that you can still enjoy an unforgettable experience.

The Campfire Sessions offer the highlight of a classic Muskoka camping adventure, allowing you to immerse yourself in the magic of live acoustic music. And when the night comes to a close, you can retreat to your hotel, cottage, or home, enjoying a restful sleep after a truly remarkable evening.

So, mark your calendars, gather your family and friends, and get ready to create cherished memories under the starlit Muskoka sky. Let Huntsville show you a whole new way to experience the magic of live acoustic music this summer.

James Grey 

James Gray is a contemporary version of an old-school traveling folk singer. In the past decade, Gray has toured Canada, Europe and Australia, seeing the world and sharing his beloved songs along the way. A unique finger style guitarist, with a vocal that is hauntingly beautiful, Gray, often accompanied by a rather droll, humorous stage patter, immerses himself in each and every song with a soulfulness and attack that is infectious and disarming.
