Ivan and Vivian Hicks Painting by Norman Jackson
At the 40th Anniversary Gala of the New Brunswick Country Music Hall of Fame (Oct 14 2023 - Fredericton Inn) we were presented with an absolutely stunning painting by artist Norman F Jackson. Norman had previously painted a portrait of Gerry Taylor for the Hall of Fame. For this presentation were were shocked. Ivan was unable to speak for a moment as you see Vivian speaks first. This was a project Gary Morris took on. Only he and three others knew about this. Thank you Norman for this beautiful portrait.

Your second pronunciation was correct...it sounds like "Sheg winda". Iive on Manitoulin Island very close to Sheguiandah Bay. I was happy to find you playing it! Thanks 😊
Great fiddler
Great playing Ivan a delight to watch and listen. Thank you
can u play liberty. my father use to play it for me when i was a kid
please play liberty.please
You two are the best!! I happen to know that Ivan wrote Garnet's tune, found it in Calgary Fiddlers. Is Fundy Tides your tune as well Ivan?
Love your music. Vivian you are a great accompanist. I accompanied my fiddle playing father from age 10...to his end. Now at 95, am still playing piano, note for note, of his jigs and reels. Your music is still so inspiring for me to continue playing those favourite tunes. I would also play my Gibson guitar and harmonica together. Such uplifting music... music soothes the soul, is my moto.
Amazing!
HA! I waited 4 years to hear you guys. Beautiful music. I'm enjoying it here in November 2024.
