FEATURED PERFORMERS:

The Lady Larks

The Lady Larks were originally inspired by the music and energy of close-harmony singing groups such as The Andrews Sisters. The vocal quartet has toured Interior BC, Vancouver Island, the Fraser Valley, including veteran centres and seniors’ facilities in their tour. In the Lower Mainland, the quartet has performed for the Harmony Arts Festival, Centre Stage at the Surrey City Hall, with the Vancouver Thunderbird Chorus, the Langley Barbershop Society, the Richmond Singers and many other local singing ensembles and organisations. In addition to public performances, they have mainly partnered with Health Arts Society of BC over the last decade, to bring their lively choreography, energy and humour to residents and seniors living in hospitals and long-term care homes. Over the years, the Lady Larks have been honoured to perform for hundreds of veterans and their families at various branches of the Royal Canadian Legion in BC and at an annual event for the George Derby Centre for Canadian Veterans of the Armed Forces. Currently, the Larks retain a fantastic team of singers and instrumentals who work together, including the four Ladies you see today:

Caitlin Bradley Beaupré, soprano
Eva Tavares, soprano
Jennifer Andersen, mezzo-soprano
Karen Lee-Morlang, piano and vocals
