Country Rocks at the Cove!

 

This is our first venture into one of Eastern Ontario’s best live music rooms. Hoping our regulars come on out for some dinner and dancing. Its going to be a great night!

While this group of musicians have been friends a long time it was only the summer of 2017 that the idea to play together was born. After a total of two rehearsals we hit the stage for our first gig and it was obvious that we were onto something. Four distinct voices all capable of singing the lead, blended together for some sweet sounds. The set list came together quickly and is evolving constantly.

 

Date :
Saturday, May 30, 2020 from 3 to 6am

The Cove Country Inn, 2 Bedford St., Westport, Ontario K0G 1X0, Westport, Canada
