Headliner: Simon Clow
Since setting out on a journey to reconnect with his roots, Simon Clow, has continued to carve his own path in Canadian country music — all while staying true to himself along the way.
Known as the guitarist and backing vocalist of JUNO nominated/multi- platinum rock
band State of Shock, Simon Clow has always carried with him an appreciation for all
genres of music — and the move to country has been a rewarding transition. After over a
decade in the music business, Simon took his career in a whole new direction a few years
ago, stepping into the spotlight for the first time.
Since then, the singer/songwriter has released two EPs, multiple singles and won
two BCCMA Awards. You can look forward to more new music on the horizon, “We have
a ton of songs ready to go, and I’m really excited about it. I’ve poured my heart and soul
into it all, and I hope everybody connects and enjoys them!”
Opener: Cookies N Cream
Formed in 2018 by coworkers at Cargill in High River, Alberta, Cookies N Cream started as a casual weekend jam session after a long work week. Today, they bring that same passion to the stage, serving up a wide variety of music and crowd-pleasing genres to keep everyone moving.
Mark your calendars for this year’s Canada Day festivities! Enjoy a variety of free, fun-filled activities throughout the day and celebrate Canada Day in style.
