Dala, the Juno-nominated and Canadian Folk Music Award-winning duo from Scarborough, Ontario, will play the Mauch Chunk Opera House in Jim Thorpe on Oct. 2.

This mark’s Shelia Carabine and Amanda Walther’s first time playing Mauch Chunk, but they’re no strangers to the stage—the two have released five full-length albums and have toured extensively throughout Canada and the United States. Their latest full-length, “Best Day,” was nominated for three Canadian Folk Music Awards upon its 2012 release and featured the single “Life on Earth.”

Tickets to the 8 p.m. performance are $23 and are available at Mauch Chunk’s website, www.mcohjt.com, or by calling (570) 325-4009. Tickets can also be purchased at SoundCheck Records in downtown Jim Thorpe.
