Adrienne Levay at FOUND
2025-01-23 19:00 - 21:30 | Found Book Shop, 206 1st Street W, Cochrane, AB
Experience an enchanting evening with Adrienne Levay, a talented musician from Vermilion, Alberta. Levay’s music, an exquisite blend of folk and roots, carries echoes of her journeys from the coasts of Canada to the streets of Budapest. Her soothing melodies and heartfelt lyrics weave stories of love, loss, and personal reflection, creating a nostalgic and contemplative ambiance.
With a voice that is soft yet raw and emotive, Levay pairs her vocals with acoustic instruments like piano and guitar to craft an organic, laid-back atmosphere that invites listeners to lean in and connect.
Levay’s musical journey began in the late ’90s, inspired by the iconic Lilith Fair performances of Sarah McLachlan, Jewel, and Sheryl Crow. From those formative moments, she has honed her craft into a style that resonates deeply with audiences, making every performance a memorable experience.
This concert promises an intimate setting where music, emotion, and community come together. Whether you’re a longtime fan or new to her work, don’t miss this opportunity to see Adrienne Levay live at Found Books & Shop.

Over the years, the Cochrane Pipe Band has fostered a strong sense of community and tradition, making it a vital part of Cochrane’s cultural fabric. As it celebrates its 25th anniversary, the band continues to inspire future generations, sharing the joy of Scottish music with both local and broader audiences.
