Lonesome Ace Stringband blends old-time, bluegrass, and folk with grit, skill, and energy, creating fresh yet timeless music. Anchored by John Showman (fiddle) and Chris Coole (banjo), with rotating bassists, they craft dynamic, heartfelt performances.

After honing their sound as the house band at Toronto’s Dakota Tavern, they became festival favorites worldwide. Their fifth album, Try To Make It Fly (2023), showcases their seamless musicianship and original songwriting. Whether sparking a dance floor or delivering poignant ballads, this powerhouse trio continues to redefine Americana music with passion and precision.
