Chilliwack (Shantero Productions) – They’re coming back to the Wack.
‘We’re on our way, to the city lights’ – Sweet City Woman.
Arguably one of THE most predominant Canadian Rock ‘n’ Roll bands of the 1970s.
The Stampeders are bringing along all their classic hits: Wild Eyes, Carry Me, Oh My Lady, Devil You, Monday Morning Choo Choo, Minstrel Gypsy, Hit the Road Jack and, of course, the quintessential Canadian and Hall of Fame song, Sweet City Woman! A veritable soundtrack to a whole generation that will ‘carry you home’ … maybe not to Birmingham ,but back to a time of tie-dyed t-shirts and elevator shoes, 15¢ coffee and homemade apple pie, dating and dreaming.
By the time The Stampeders get to the first chorus of the first song, everyone will be singing along.
FVN’s Don Lehn had a conversation with Kim Berly, drummer, singer and Writer for the band. NOTE – Ironically they ave yet to be inducted to the Juno Canadian Music Hall of Fame.
The Stampeders are at the Chilliwack Cultural Centre, Tuesday June 28.
