The Stampeders hit the stage for the second time in a year at The Centre on Saturday, October 1. Never failing to entertain, the trio played their classic music that everyone knows and loves, along with some of what they call their “new stuff” put out in the late ’90s.

The band injected humour into each break between songs, keeping the full audience entertained with music and laughter.

The Stampeders saw the stage in Dryden October 22 last year, and received a standing ovation for the second year in a row.

The group, originally hailing from Calgary, has come a long way over the years, accumulating many awards such as Best Vocal Instrumental Group, Best Producer, and Best Single at the Juno Awards, and can still bring down the house thirty years later.
