CHARLEY PRIDE – 40 YEARS OF ENTERTAINING CANADIANS!
2008 TOUR DATES ANNOUNCED:
In celebration of his 40th year of touring Canada, the
incomparable Charley Pride returns to Canada for
select concerts in Canada in the spring of 2008.
The May/June tour will visit Red Deer, Edmonton, Calgary,
Winnipeg, Pembroke, Kingston, Cornwall, North Bay and
London with further dates expected to be announced before
year’s end. Tickets for the Alberta, Manitoba and Ontario
concerts will go on sale this Friday, November 9th,
With an amazing 36, #1 singles to his credit, and album
sales in excess of 70 million, Charley Pride
concerts are back-to-back hits including “Crystal
Chandelier”, “All I Have to Offer You is Me”, “Does My Ring
Hurt Your Finger”, “Kiss An Angel Good Morning” and “Kaw-
Liga” to mention just a few.
This year the legendary country music star released Pride
and Joy – a collection of gospel music, featuring “God’s
Colouring Book”, with Dolly Parton, “Amazing Grace”, “Just
A Closer Walk With Thee” and “Family Bible” featuring
Willie Nelson. Also included is “Jesus, It’s Me Again”,
penned by Canadian Dick Damron.
Pride has played to sold-out crowds from coast-to-coast
throughout his distinguished career, garnering rave reviews
city after city. His rich baritone voice and engaging stage
presence have made him a concert favourite.
A proud member of the Grand Ole Opry and a Grammy and
Country Music Award winner, Charley Pride’s music is
timeless and treasured. While it is an over-used phrase,
the Texas born artist truly embodies the phrase ‘living
legend’ – no one before him or since has made his or her
mark, quite like Charley Pride
.
Country’s pride and joy on tour in Canada, this spring!
