Currently gearing up to record a follow up to her pop album Shine, Ottawa based singer-songwriter Lola Spriggs (www.lolaspriggs.com) is set to headline a fundraising event for the Canadian Cancer Society (www.cancer.ca) on the afternoon of Sunday, June 2.
The event, which will run from 2-5 p.m., will be held at The Lone Star Texas Grill, a 400+ seat venue located at 1211 Lemieux St. in Ottawa. Preceding Spriggs' 90-minute set of covers and originals will be an opening set by funk rock folk band Hippie Campfire. Cover charge is $20 with proceeds benefitting the Canadian Cancer Society. Celebrating the 75th Anniversary of its founding, the Canadian Cancer Society is a national community-based organization of volunteers whose mission is the eradication of cancer and the enhancement of the quality of life of people living with cancer. Lola Spriggs brings a whirlwind of momentum into her new project. She ended an explosive 2012 with a unique and impressive coup: she's the only Canadian artist to be included on Music Connection Magazine's highly coveted Hot 100 Live Unsigned Artists & Bands list for 2012. The acclaimed songstress also earned her third and fourth Hollywood Music in Media (HMMA) nominations for her latest pop/rock single "Your One and Only" (in the Best Adult Contemporary/AAA category) and "Lola La Lo" (Best Pop Song).Videos
