You know them, you love them and they are back to give you an afternoon filled with Cowboy Christmas music and poetry. Hugh McLennan, Matt Johnston, Butch Falk and special guests old friends, Colin Williams and Doug Hatheway will be performing at the North Thompson Fall Fair Hall on Saturday afternoon December 9 at 1:00 p.m.
Hugh’s knack for setting the stage, connecting with the audience and presenting the performers in the best possible light has kept him in wide demand as a professional emcee for events all over North America. With his ol’ guitar and an amazing collection of songs, poems and stories Hugh has entertained audiences from theaters in Branson, Missouri to campfires and trail rides in the Canadian west.
McLennan is among that elite group and his voice is instantly recognizable to anyone who listens to local radio. Along with producing his syndicated Spirit of the West show and doing radio and television commercials, McLennan has travelled all over North America as a sought-after live entertainer, singing, telling stories and reciting his poems.
For more than a decade, Matt Johnston has performed at cowboy festivals, concerts and gatherings, sharing his love of the cowboy culture through song. He was twice nominated for the Rising Star Award by the Academy of Western Artists and once for Male Western vocalist.
A featured performer at many cowboy gatherings and festivals in Canada and the U.S., Butch possesses a unique ability to bring the most descriptive cowboy lyrics to life. His music literally transports the listener to another place and time. A dynamic contemporary performer, Butch Falk is always true to the cowboy spirit in all of us.
