Rendezvous

Marlyce (Martens) Gundy and Sharon (Sawatsky) Schermbrucker began singing classical and folk duets in their teens. After a long hiatus, they reunited to form the chamber group Beauty in the Blends, which has performed across the U.S. and Canada. Meanwhile, Marlyce married Jeff Gundy, and they played and sang folk music as a duo.

As the folk trio Rendezvous, Marlyce, Sharon, and Jeff now bring their close harmonies to tunes by Kate Wolf, the Wailin Jennys, Dave Carter, Old Crow Medicine Show, and others, with all three on vocals and Jeff on 6- and 12-string guitar.

Bush Wiebe

http://www.myspace.com/bushwiebe
Wick (Bush) Wiebe is a Mennonite musician from Steinbach Manitoba who writes and plays a wide variety of music from folk to rock to blues. In the first 32 years of his life, he moved 32 times all over Canada and Paraguay. He says, "I am very proud of my Mennonite heritage. We have a long, wonderful history. A lot of the good and noble things our ancestors did are forgotten or mocked by people who don't understand it. Being forced out of our homes and land 500 years ago and being on the move ever since, we've been persecuted and misunderstood for generations. But through that we have developed our own culture to the point of having our own dress, food and slang. I want to celebrate our culture and make it more accessible to those who don't know it's strength. I also hope to help give modern day Mennonites a voice and a place in the greater culture. "
