Found Books & Shop is excited to welcome back to the stage Dominique Adams & Jacob Brodovsky April 10th, 2026!!

The tone is attentive and respectful—people really listen
Found is a licensed establishment & has a coffee bar – grab a glass of wine, latte or beer & settle in

Dominique Adams is a Winnipeg-based contemporary folk artist. Driving Dominique’s artistry is her lush and thoughtful approach to song writing, in tandem with her vocals – singular and iconic, inviting and heartfelt. Her debut full-length album Titled To Keep, was recorded in spring of 2024 with friends Liam Duncan (Boy Golden), Austin Parachoniak (Boy Golden, Del Barber), and Keiran Placatka (William Prince, Leith Ross). It was released on July 18th 2025 with Birthday Cake Records, and saw her play Winnipeg Folk Fest, and spend multiple weeks on college and satellite radio charts.

Jacob Brodovsky is a singer-songwriter from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Treaty One Territory. He writes songs about feelings, the people who have them, the places that create them, and the fears we have about them. Jacob’s debut full length album I Love You and I’m Sorry earned him a 2024 Canadian Folk Music Award for English Songwriter of the Year. Jacob’s sophomore LP Tell The Kids We Tried is out July 10th on Make My Day Records. It was recorded with producers Gavin Gardiner and Champagne James Robinson (MOONRIIVR), crafting a contemporary folk record that tugs at the heartstrings while recounting Jacob’s steadfastly hopeful approach to losing the community he’d known his whole life.

After meeting by chance at a house show, the Dom an Jacob accidentally wrote an album together and began collaborating on each others solo work. When Dom and Jacob bring their respective voices and writing styles together, they write intimate and thoughtful songs born out a true collaborative partnership

Live on the Found Stage: April 16, 2026
There’s something special about music at Found (if we don’t say so ourselves). This comes from the way the room gathers around a voice, how the lights soften, how neighbours and strangers end up sharing a table and a moment. Our stage was built for nights exactly like this: intimate, close-up, and filled with that electric hush you only get when live music feels personal.
On April 16, we welcome Shane Pendergast to the Found Stage.
Shane Pendergast is a folksinger from Tracadie Cross, Prince Edward Island. Hailing from a long lineage of storytellers and musicians in Prince Edward Island, he is keeping the Maritime folk tradition alive with his honest and insightful compositions. From acclaimed folk festivals across the world to the small halls of PEI, Shane has cemented himself as one of Atlantic Canada’s finest folk troubadours. His 2021 album ‘Second Wind” won Contemporary Roots Album of the Year at the Music PEI Awards. Shane released his fourth album “Winter Grace” in January of 2025.

Expect a cozy winter night of music, wine, and community – the kind of evening that reminds you why live music matters and why this little stage in Cochrane, Alberta has become such a beloved spot.
