“Truly, Richard Wood and Gordon Belsher brought the house down at St. Kieran Arts Center yesterday!  From opening explosion to standing ovation, they endeared themselves into our hearts forever!” - March 2011

2011 started with a UK tour that included Celtic Connections in Glasgow, and an opening slot for Capercaillie at the Celtic Footprint Festival in Chichester. 

Richard won "Roots Traditional Solo Artist of the Year" at the 2011 Prince Edward Island MUSIC Awards, and was a nominee at Canada's East Coast Music Awards  in April.  At that event, he performed in concert with the Nova Scotia Symphony, as well as on the Gala Awards Show.

Summer highlights at home on beautiful Prince Edward Island included the Festival of Small Halls, and performing for the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's Royal Visit.  This was also the first season for a popular weekly concert by the Richard Wood Trio in the Stanley Bridge village hall.

Fall included performances in Quebec, Vermont, Manitoba and Alberta.

The year climaxed with an APPEARANCE AT THE WOODFORD FESTIVAL IN AUSTRALIA!!!
