The Envision Twilight Concert Series welcomes award-winning singer-songwriter Alan Moberg to Fraser River Heritage Park tomorrow night from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m.

Moberg writes songs of his beloved B.C. His songs tell stories of trials and triumphs in the lives of ordinary men and women, giving them identity and dignity. His songs reflect life on land and sea, on interior ranchlands in the Cariboo and on the coast of the Pacific.

Born on the Sunshine Coast in Pender Harbour, he has worked both as fisherman and landscape gardener. He is adopted into the Gitskahn Killer Whale Clan of Kispiox and has become part of the Kwakiutl clan of Fort Rupert through marriage.

His original and cover tunes receive airplay coast to coast in Canada, and in the U.S., Ireland, and Australia. In 2007 his single Farther Along charted in the top 10 on several Canadian university stations on their Roots playlists.

Moberg was inducted into the BC Country Music Hall of Fame in October of 2008.


His live concerts are rich and satisfying, joyous and uplifting. He puts smiles in peoples’ hearts and gets toes tapping.

The July 3 Artists at Twilight feature artist in the gazebo is Heleen Deboer, spinner and weaver.

Admission is free but donations are appreciated. For more information call the Fraser River Heritage Park at 604-826-0277.
