97 South Song Sessions is an acoustic performance event where award winning, multi-genre Songwriters and Recording Artists share the stage, entertaining the audience with tales of the creative journey that inspired their hit songs which they perform throughout the evening. The result is an intimate show that is variously touching and humorous, and certainly unforgettable.

Warning: Attending this event may lead to the 97 South Song Sessions addiction. Symptoms may include, and are not limited to, endless recounting of the evening to friends and family, feelings of impatience as you await next year's event, and an increase in consumption of Okanagan wines.
