Tickets for his Friday, April 24th concert are on sale now.
If you’re a fan of Canadian country-music star, George Fox, rejoice. Horizon Stage has made a late addition to its 2008/2009 season. Mr. Fox will be performing in Spruce Grove on Friday, April 24th at 7:30 p.m.
With three Canadian Country Music awards, three Junos and nine Big Country awards on his mantle, George Fox has certainly made it to “the big time”. He has recorded eleven albums, written a book and had a string of chart-topping hits, including “Clearly Canadian”, “First Comes Love”, “What’s Holding Me” and “Wear & Tear on My Heart”. His most recent CD, With All Due Respect, is a tribute to some all-time great artists and songwriters from John Denver and Dean Martin to Eddie Arnold and Don Messer.
Born in Calgary and raised in Cochrane, Alberta, George is still an incredibly down-to-earth kind of guy. He now lives in Southern Ontario with his wife and two daughters on an expansive acreage and farms winter wheat, soybean and corn. Besides music and farming, his hobbies include hockey, carpentry and reading.
Spruce Grove loves George Fox. In 2005 he performed for a huge, enthusiastic crowd at our Canada Day celebration. He was last seen at Horizon Stage at Christmas 2006, when he sold out not one, not two, but three concerts! That is why when Horizon Stage discovered he was available in April they invited him immediately!
Tickets to see George Fox Up Close and Personal at Horizon Stage on Friday, April 24th have only just gone on sale, but they aren’t expected to last. Tickets are $30 for adults and $25 for students and seniors. Call the Horizon Stage Box Office at 962-8995 for more information and to reserve your seats before the show sells out!
