The
WCB Revival - featuring Pear & Special Guests:
After 35 Years The Wild Colonials, our beloved houseband, have retired.
Before they left they made certain that the wonderful sing-alongs
and great music our members expect will continue by "training-up"
the next houseband - The WCB Revival - featuring Pear, Husband and wife team, Lynae (vocals and fiddle) and Denis (vocals
and mandolin) Dufresne are Pear - labelled as "the most accomplished
band you've never heard of" PEAR is taking the crossover market
by storm and form the heart of our new houseband! Every other club
they'll take to the stage joined by long time Colonial fav Graham
Tait (vocals and accordion), Rod Walsh (vocals and guitar) and Mike
Bourque (vocals and bass). They will be fun, fresh and oh so fabulous!
And don't be surprised if Gordie, Mansel or John show up occasionally
and sit in! Alternate nights we'll introduce some wonderfully talented
artists to open the evening; superb local performers and other outstanding
artists that we can catch as they pass through Calgary. |
