Martyn Joseph is a powerful singer and songwriter gifted with the rare ability to speak to the soul with his expressive and poignant lyrics. With a career spanning 30 years, 31 albums, over a half a million record sales and thousands of live performances, the versatility of his music touches genres of folk, rock, soul, folk funk and Americana, yet somehow all these labels cannot define the spirit of his music.
This performance is a fundraiser for PeaceQuest and the SSUC Social Justice and Outreach Group
The goal of PeaceQuest is to cultivate Canadians' deeply held commitment to peace. Commitment to a peaceful society, and to a leadership role in active peacemaking around the globe, is part of what it means to be Canadian. It shapes our actions, informs our pulic policy, infuses our education system, inspires our culture and underpins our international relations.
The Social Justice and Outreach group was founded on the concept of social justice (fair treatment for all) in addressing current issues in our local community and in the world at large. Also, through the United Church Mission and Service fund, SSUC members support projects throughout Canada and around the world.
Performing at Sydenham Street United Church, 82 Sydenham Street, starting at 8pm
