The Canal Street Pub in Fort Plain welcomes back Nancy and Phil, by popular demand. They will be performing at the pub this Saturday starting at 9pm.

Nancy Kenyon is a singer/song writer who has been performing all over upstate New York, and has traveled as far as Myrtle Beach, South Carolina as a member of a local band for about ten years.

During this time Nancy has had the chance to open for such acts as The Romantics, Kansas, Blue Oyster Cult, Orleans, Mulberry Lane, Jana and Blessid Union of Souls.

Throughout these years she has introduced her fans to her own style of original acoustic “folk-pop” music. During one of her performances the audience can experience sounds from the guitar, conga, harmonica and a unique and captivating voice that pulls on your heart strings. Nancy writes heartfelt songs of insecure love, fond memories of a small town childhood and wonder of the world to come in the next millennium.

Last Sunday, December 20th 2009, Alan and Lisa of the Canal Street Pub in Fort Plain held a party to show their appreciation towards their customers and employees.  So, of course, we had to stop by!

When I got there, the place was already packed, Nancy and Phil were playing on stage, and Alan and Lisa were making the rounds through the crowd. The pool table was set up with a great spread, from tuna salad pitas with roasted red peppers, ham and cheese, sausage bread, veggie bread, and shrimp cocktail.

I had a great time visiting with some good friends, good food, and good music.

If you haven’t stopped in yet, I strongly recommend you check them out. They are located at 9 Canal Street in Fort Plain. The food is made fresh daily, they have 8 beers on tap, and over 30 bottles to choose from. Each Thursday is a friendly in-house pool tournament, only $5 to play.
