One of Canada’s best ever live bands will be performing in Revelstoke on Thursday, Sept. 11.

Nearing the three-and-a-half decade mark, Spirit of the West continues to rock audiences with their original and potent blend of folk, Celtic, rock, pop and punk.

The band that began in 1983 as an innocent trio of acoustic guitar, flutes and bouzouki is now a musical and performance powerhouse that features six musicians and dozens of instrument changes in a nights’ worth of timeless and beloved songs, all presented with abundant energy and high spirits.

The band’s performance will be the first of 18 shows being presented this year and into 2015 by the Revelstoke Arts Council as part of its ambitious 2014-15 Performance Series.

Just a four hour drive from Cranbrook and Kimberley to Revelstoke (three hours from Invermere), Revelstoke offers all forms of accommodation and dining experiences, as well as all visitor services for someone thinking of a weekend road trip topped off by top-notch entertainment.

“We are offering a total of 18 excellent performance events plus six multicultural films this season for your enjoyment beginning with the iconic west coast band Spirit of the West on September 11. The remainder of the series includes family and adult theatre as well as comedy, classical performances, contemporary dance, ballet and more great music,” the Revelstoke Arts Council notes on its website.
