SUMMARY:Maddisun (Full Band) Live @ Summer Sounds 2025
DESCRIPTION:Live music concert series\, free for everyone\, in Rotary Park – the heart of downtown Cranbrook. This annual program organized and run by the volunteers of the Fisher Peak Performing Artists Society (FPPAS) will showcase local musical acts at each evening event every Thursday beginning July 3! \nAugust 21 @ 5:30pm: Maddisun \nMaddisun is a Canadian indie artist whose music reflects the big star dreams she’s carried since childhood in the mountains of British Columbia. Her sound blends soulful songwriter-folk\, rootsy rock\, and vintage textures\, and her electrifying\, heart-led performances consistently capture hearts and command attention. Performing and writing since the age of 10\, Maddisun’s relentless passion for music reflects the one thing that’s always stayed true—her deep love for the craft. \nHer new album\, The Pages\, takes a bold and unconventional route: only Chapter One is available on streaming platforms. The full album is available exclusively on vinyl\, CD\, cassette\, or radio—a nostalgic return to intentional listening for old souls and true music lovers. www.maddisunmusic.com \n“The music is powerful: themes of saying yes to yourself\, empowering yourself\, and refusing to say no. I think Maddisun takes her own advice. Her performance is driven with rhythm and energy.” – Roots Music Canada
