Every Song Evokes a Memory. Every Lyric Takes You Back.


Mac Daddy: The Fleetwood Mac Experience brings the music of Fleetwood Mac to Horizon Stage on November 29 & 30


Mac Daddy is an Edmonton-based tribute band that performs and celebrates the music of Fleetwood Mac with integrity and passion. This Fleetwood Mac live experience pays homage to the classic line-up of the band, with respect for its artistry and influence on popular music and culture. You’ll hear the songs you know so well, like “The Chain”, “Little Lies”, “Don’t Stop”, and “Say You Love Me”, alongside some classic tracks Fleetwood Mac have never played live. Mac Daddy performs Fleetwood Mac’s biggest hits from the 70s and 80s, and even touches on their early years as a British blues band. Tickets for Mac Daddy’s original concert at Horizon Stage on Saturday, November 30 sold so well the theatre added another performance on Friday, November 29.

The members of Mac Daddy are Laurie Slater (Stevie Nicks), Mark Donaghy (Lindsey Buckingham), Crystal Goodfellow (Christine McVie), David Bowden (Mick Fleetwood), and David Gaitan Galvez (John McVie). All five are former members of the cover band Head Over Heels. In 2015 they were looking for promo photo ideas, and pictures of Fleetwood Mac kept coming up. They decided that because they had the same lineup (two female singers, drums, bass, and guitar), and they were already enjoying covering some of Fleetwood Mac’s songs, they would become a tribute band. And that’s how Mac Daddy was born.

Enjoy a Fleetwood Mac experience like no other with Mac Daddy at Horizon Stage on Friday, November 29 (great seats available) and Saturday, November 30 (limited seats) at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $40 for Adults and $35 for Students and Seniors and may be purchased at the City Hall Ticket Centre (315 Jespersen Ave), by phone at 780-962-8995 or 1-888-655-9090, and online through Ticketpro.ca.
