Greetings!

Welcome to the Spirit of Rasputin’s website.  We are an organization that arose from the ashes of the Rasputin’s Folk Café.  Ok, that’s overly dramatic, but we are proving notoriously hard to kill, just like the mad monk himself.  When Rasputin’s Folk Café was closed after a fire, we created a non-profit organization to support the folk music community in Ottawa.

We are happy to say that the Elmdale House Tavern has graciously agreed to host events for the Spirit of Rasputin’s.  In the two short years that Natalie (Nat) and Bruce have owned the Elmdale, they have transformed it into a real live-music destination.  They are great supporters of live music, and it’s wonderful that the Spirit of Rasputin’s is working with them. The Spirit of Rasputin’s lives on at the Elmdale Tavern
