Randy Bachman coming to Key City Theatre
Key City Theatre continues to attract some of the biggest names in Canadian music.
Fans have recently been treated to live concerts from the Downchild Blues Band, The Barenaked Ladies and Burton Cummings. Blues guitarist/singer Colin James is slated for a show on March 24. One week before that on March 17, Randy Bachman’s Every Song Tells a Story tour will make a stop in Cranbrook at the Key.
Randy Bachman stands in rarified air as a member of a very exclusive club of recording artists who had number one singles with two different bands; ‘American Woman’ with the Guess Who and ‘You Ain’t Seen Nothin’ Yet’ with Bachman-Turner Overdrive. It’s a club with precious few members to be sure. In a career spanning five decades, Bachman has earned a staggering 120 platinum, gold and silver record awards.
Bachman’s record sales have now exceeded over 40 million, and his distinctive brand of no-holds-barred, guitar-driven rock is instantly recognizable worldwide.
As host of the top-rated CBC and Sirius XM radio program, Vinyl Tap, his listeners worldwide number in the millions each week, earning him the title as Canada’s favourite storyteller.
Fans will not only hear the Bachman Songbook played “live” in an intimate venue like the Key City Theatre, but they will hear the stories behind how and why the songs were written.
As a special bonus to his ever-popular songs and the stories behind them, Bachman will also pay tribute to the remarkable musical legacy of his early mentor, hero, and inspiration, Beatles guitarist/songwriter George Harrison. As part of the show, Bachman will offer his own uniquely personal interpretation of Harrison’s best known songs.
