Cosmic balladeer and enabler of Roots and Blues musicians everywhere Brian Gladstone will be doing the feature set at my open stage at Hirut (2050 Danforth Ave. ten doors west of Woodbine) this coming Wed., Jan. 23.

Brian has several acclaimed albums of original material and no doubt will share some unrecorded songs as well when he does the 30-minute set at 10 p.m. sharp.
