Gathering Sparks

Winner, Folk Music Ontario 2019 “Songs From the Heart” Award
“All That’s Real" #7 on Folk Alliance Folk DJ chart, October 2019
Nominated Canadian Folk Music Award 2014 "Vocal Group of the Year”

You will come to listen, and walk away singing. GATHERING SPARKS is the graceful collision of Eve Goldberg and Jane Lewis—musical friends who blend tight harmonies, finely crafted songs, and a love of participatory singing to create an intimate and uplifting experience. Their inclusive approach embraces folk, pop, blues and gospel influences tastefully played on acoustic guitar, piano, accordion, and ukulele.

With their infectious mix of styles and compelling vocal blend, Gathering Sparks has been making some big waves. Their debut 6-song CD was nominated for a 2014 Canadian Folk Music Award for Vocal Group of the Year, and they have become an audience favourite. Whether they are belting it out a capella style, tugging on your heartstrings with a folky original, crooning a jazzy swing tune, or getting into the spirit with a gospel-inflected singalong, Gathering Sparks performances make fans out of listeners with their stellar harmonies and fine musicianship.

Their album “All That’s Real” was released on Borealis Records in September 2019. The lead-off song from the album, “Bringing in the Light,” was recognized with a 2019 Folk Music Ontario “Songs From the Heart” Award, singer-songwriter category. The album also charted at #7 on the Folk Alliance International Folk DJ chart for October 2019, and #10 for the month of November 2019. “Bringing in the Light” was the #1 song on the Folk DJ chart for the month of December 2019, and the album ended up on several radio hosts’ “best of” lists for 2019.
