Soul-inspired pop-rockers Hanson are hitting The Kelowna Community Theatre tonight. This special performance is part of the Canadian leg of Hansons international Musical Ride Tour, a 15-year career spanning tour, where fans will be given the chance to vote online to choose the album they want to hear the band play each night.
It’s always fun to look back at the local shows around Kelowna to come up with this Top 10 list. I must say, every year there seems to be new venues opening their doors to live music, and new bands popping up. It’s great to see the support of local live music fans.
