We wrapped up our summer festival season this past weekend with Lucknow’s Music in the Fields takeover of Graceland in Lucknow Ontario. There is no denying that this home grown festival deserves some serious recognition for not only bringing stellar lineups year after year but also for their involvement in the beautiful community of Lucknow. The Lucknow Kinsmen are a non-profit community organization and all money raised by initiatives like Lucknow’s Music in the Fields goes right back into their community to support charities, hospitals, schools and other various community projects. Over the past 9 years the Lucknow Kinsmen have been able to donate over 1 million dollars back into their community. A small town festival with HUGE heart if you ask us!
Tim Hicks Shakes the Walls at Oshawa’s Tribute Centre
What a way to start off the new year. Tim Hicks started his “Shake these Walls” 2017 tour started in BC & is currently in Ontario. Tim performed in Hamilton on Jan 19, Oshawa on Jan 20, London tonight and then on to Sudbury Ontario. We are very excited to have Tim back in Ontario along with two other local artists: River Town Saints & Jason Blaine! Hang in Ontario; you’re in for heck of a party. Sound Check was fortunate to catch up with all the boys in at the Tribute Centre in Oshawa.
Young, Alive and In Depth with Tim Hicks
So, one of our biggest supporters (Tim Hicks) has a “Newish” album at the record stores and any where you can download good music. 5:01+ has 4 new songs including his current single Young Alive and in Love. We had a chance to sit down and talk with Tim to discuss the new album and the tour that kicks off this fall.
