Homegrown Hideaway – Where Music Feels Like Home

Songwriters Round August
2026-08-20 18:30 - 21:00 | Homegrown Hideaway, 524 St. Johns Rd E, Port Dover, Ontario, N0A1N2, Canada
The Homegrown Hideaway Songwriters Rounds gathers songwriters from surrounding communities and brings them together for an intimate concert with heartfelt storytelling.
Curated by Nolan Gibson, the goal is to gather a unique mix of artists and perspectives all under one roof, and provide a quiet listening experience for the audience and performers alike. Each round four songwriters will take turns performing an original song and providing insight into their writing process. Time should allow for four to six rounds, with a brief intermission in between.
Let’s meet the songwriters:
Amber Banks
Music flows through singer-songwriter Amber Banks. Inspired by folk, roots, soul, and americana music, her uniquely timeless voice captivates audiences. Complimented by lush, melodic fingerstyle guitar playing, her performances promise dynamic vocals, magical ambience, and an authentic, evocative music-going experience.

Rick St. Clair
The voice of Rick St. Clair resonates with the weight of a heart-worn and weathered soul. His songs reflect on life’s joys and hardships, and give voice to quiet truths. His musical sensibilities take root in the introspective lyricism of yesteryear’s folk, and the melancholic melodies of country and blues. Rick weaves a sonic tapestry of his own.
Rick has quietly honed his craft over the years, writing songs in the confines of solitude. His debut performance took place at the storied Mariposa Folk Festival on July 5th and 6th, 2025 – a milestone that marked the beginning of his outward musical journey.
On January 17th, 2026, Rick released his song Wildflowers, a deeply personal piece inspired by the physical and spiritual medicine found in wildflowers. His lyrics reflect on the harmony between land, people, and his Red River Métis identity.
When not performing or recording his music, Rick gives back to the community by hosting a concert series titled Listen Up, dedicated to fostering a space for emerging artists to perform for audiences who truly listen.

Nolan Gibson
Blending a foundation in roots music with a curiosity for the undiscovered, songwriter Nolan Gibson creates music that is grounded in tradition, yet embraces the present times we live in. Nolan’s eclectic voice and guitar playing allow him to blur genre lines, and his lyrics will make you smile, laugh, cry, roll your eyes, and most importantly, feel.
In his 14-year career, Nolan has had the pleasure of opening for Canadian legend David Wilcox, and torch bearers of traditional folk Ian Bell and Lotus Wight. In addition to his own career as an artist, Nolan has played a support role in a number of other musical projects, and has earned a final ballot nomination for ‘Musician of the Year’ from CMAOntario.
If you’re lucky, he’ll even sing you a song about a spicy Octopus named Jeremy!

Darrin & Alison Schott
2026-08-26 18:30 - 21:00 | Homegrown Hideaway, 524 St. Johns Rd E, Port Dover, Ontario, N0A1N2, Canada
Darrin and Alison are a picking, singing and song writing duo from South Western Ontario who bring beautiful harmonies and world-class musicianship to their unique blend of country, bluegrass and folk music. They’ve honed their chops playing in clubs and festivals across Canada and Europe, including a memorable appearance in Nashville on the legendary “Midnight Jamboree”.
Darrin began his professional career playing fiddle and mandolin for The Good Brothers when he was just 17 years old. One of Canada’s top multi-instrumentalists, he has gone on to play or record with artists such as The Ennis Sisters, The Dixie Flyers, Susan Aglukark, Shane Cook, and Stompin’ Tom Connors, lending his talents on fiddle, mandolin, guitar, and anything else that has strings.
Alison’s solid guitar work provides the perfect backdrop for her husband’s instrumental talents. When interpreting songs by Emmylou Harris or Gillian Welch, or singing self-penned originals, her clear, soulful voice never fails to transport the listener to whatever time and place the song is leading. You’ll be glad you came along.
