A performance is ѻýkind of like hanging around a campfire, and singing a few songs everybody grew up with,ѻý according to band member Ian Thomas.

The super-group made up of Canadian popular music royalty will grace three Okanagan stages Nov. 11-13. First at the Oliver Venables Theatre Thursday, Nov. 11, then Kelowna Community Theatre Nov. 12 and finally at the Vernon and District Performing Arts Centre Nov. 13. All shows are at 7:30 p.m.

Audience members will see a band with very close ties, who view playing together as a pleasure.

ѻýWeѻýre more like extended family at this point in life,ѻý said Thomas, who gained fame in the 70s with the hit single, Painted Ladies, and has released hit-after-hit for himself, and written for a host of famous acts like Chicago, and Santana since.

ѻýWe have great fun with each other, because we enjoy each otherѻýs company, and thatѻýs the wonderful thing about playing with friends.ѻý

Thomas will be joined on stage by Marc Jordan, Murray McLauchlan, and Cindy Church. Between the four they have sold almost as many albums as there are people in Canada.

Attendees can expect to hear a plethora of classic tracks from their solo efforts, as well as a few cuts from some of the groupѻýs five albums.

ѻýIѻým looking forward to it,ѻý Thomas said, before noting each show will be special.

ѻýItѻýs well-oiled machine, and the joys are discovering what to do within that.

ѻýThatѻýs where the fun begins really.ѻý
