John McLachlan
Folk Singer
Original songs hand-woven from his own roots and the history and salty air of Canada’s west coast.

Call it Home
Multimedia Concert
A musically dramatic journey that re-ignites glowing memories of summer vacations, explores the pains of growing up and sheds light on the realities of adulthood with its realization that we are all part of a bigger ebb and flow.

Early Morning Rain
the songs of Gordon Lightfoot
with Marc Atkinson & Scott White
John McLachlan’s trio has chosen over 25 songs from Lightfoot’s first ten, prolific years (1966 through 1976), and lovingly arranged in ways that make them familiar to anyone who followed his music, but also fresh for those who have never heard them before...

Concerts
The show can be accompanied by his multi-media presentation projected on or next to the stage/performance area or just him, his guitar, and songs.

About John
With a life-long interest in the history of his home on Canada’s west coast, John’s songs, whether personal or historical, evoke rich landscapes with a strong connection to place in the tradition of songwriters such as Gordon Lightfoot and Stan Rogers.
Place and the passage of time are the threads that run through his songs. He writes as a way of making sense of who he is, where he’s been, where he’s going, and in general, of finding meaning in his life and of those characters who inhabit his songs.
It’s his hope that you will find some common threads in the songs he shares.
