From the prairies in Southern Alberta comes one of Canada's best folk/roots songwriters, John Wort Hannam. In 1998 he bought a guitar and learnt some chords. In 2002 he quit teaching and began to pursue the dream of being a working musician. John has achieved some fine accolades in a few short years including a mainstage performance at the 2009 Kerrville Folk Fest, three Grand Prizes at the Calgary Folk Fest Songwriting Competition, and numerous nominations and awards.
With comparisons to Gordon Lightfoot, James Keelaghan, and John Prine, John Wort Hannam is a born story- teller with a keen eye for the quirky and lyrics that create stories behind the songs. Accompanied by fiddler extraordinaire, Scott Duncan.

Mission
The purpose of the Northern Showcase Concert Association is to promote an appreciation of the arts and provide stimulating, entertaining and educational experiences for the campus and community.
History
Northern Showcase is in its 31st year of providing a performing arts series for the community of Havre. The committee responsible for Northern Showcase was originally comprised of only faculty members from Northern Montana College but has since been expanded to include college staff members, students and members of local and surrounding communities. Northern Montana College changed its name to Montana State University-Northern in July 1994.
In 2008, the Northern Showcase organization merged with the HiLine Community Concert Association (HLCA) to become the Northern Showcase Concert Association (NSCA). Members of the HLCA have joined the Northern Showcase committee. There is simply less money in our community and more demand on it, so the two organizations decided this merge was best for the future success of the fine arts in our community. Traditionally Northern Showcase has offered 3-5 performances during the academic year in the areas of theatre, dance, musical groups and/or individuals. NSCA will provide 7 performances this year as a result of the merge. NSCA has traditionally received support from the student body, private donors and season ticket sales.
