The Wilkinsons take enthusiastic Brockville crowd on trip down memory lane
I first saw Amanda, Tyler and Steve, aka the Wilkinson’s, live 23 years ago this summer at the North Bay Heritage Festival. We were all kids back then, especially so for Amanda and Tyler. The trio has gone through a number of iterations over the years including a run as duo, Small Town Pistols featuring just Amanda and Tyler, as well as a solo run for Amanda but they always seem to find their way back to the stage as a family and when they do it’s nothing short of magic and last night was no exception.

Brett Kissel exploded into Brockville with sold out show at Brockville Arts Centre
5 years ago this past September Sound Check Entertainment was still in its infancy. I had just started working with a small venue in Eastern Ontario, the Joshua Bates Centre, that had developed one heck of a resume for hosting some of the biggest names in music before they hit it big. One of the artists on the bill for my first season with the JBC was a young man from Alberta named Brett Kissel. Although still relatively unknown Brett was best known, at the time, for his musical plea to the NHL and the players union to come to terms and return to the ice with his song “Hockey Please Come Back”. At the time Brett had just released his debut, major label, single “Started with A Song” the video for which went #1 on CMT that very night.
Nothing blue about Matt Andersen and Steve Hill’s show in Brockville

Terri Clark returned to Brockville with incredibly intimate show on Wednesday

(on a side note the venue would not allow photo or video so all photos are from Terri’s tour launch in the spring at Casino Rama)
