Big Little Lions are back on Vancouver Island in November playing a show similar to their popular “Big Little Lions Opens for Simon & Garfunkel”, but this time their closing set will be music by The Beatles.
The multi award winning folk/pop duo are Comox Valley’s own Helen Austin and Paul Otten from Cincinnati, Ohio. Their first collaboration garnered Helen a JUNO and ever since they have been cranking out infectious folk pop songs that are jam-packed with emotion and tight harmonies that sound like the product of two people working side-by-side instead of living in different countries.
Their live show is quite the spectacle with Paul playing drums, bass and keyboard all while singing lead vocals. Helen, who is no slacker either, sings, plays guitar and foot percussion. They use every limb, and then some, to make two people sound like a full band.
