Rosie & the Riveters are four fiercely talented and sassy dames from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, who perform uplifting folk music with a vintage 1940s flair! Their original songs feature sophisticated harmonies, body percussion, scintillating dance moves, humour and just enough ooh-la-la to charm your socks off! Along with whoops, hollers, and mile-wide smiles, they create a sound and sight that is lighthearted and captivating for all music lovers.

They are inspired by Rosie the Riveter, the feminist icon who represents the women’s movement into the workforce during WWII and embodies the strength and power that thrive in every woman. The Riveters are about empowering women to be ambassadors for change in their community and to attain this goal, they use 20% of their merchandise sales to support other women’s projects around the world through KIVA.org.

Since the band’s formation in 2011, they have quickly taken the folk scene by storm! They have performed at venues and festivals across Canada and the United States, including at the 2016 Winnipeg Folk Festival, and in 2016 were nominated for a Canadian Folk Music Award, a Western Canadian Music Award, and a Saskatchewan Arts Award. Don't miss your chance to see the band that CBC's Rich Terfy called "one of the best lives shows you'll ever see!"
