As a fulltime musician for the past 35 years myself (yikes, that’s a long time!), I’ve come to appreciate the fact that I am able to perform and sing for people and in return, enjoy it as much as I do. There is something to be said for that exchange of energy and good vibes that live music brings to all, from the stage to the seats, there is nothing like it and I so look forward to feeling that again when we are out of this crazy mess we are in. Music is needed desperately in everyone’s lives.

The goal here from these episodes on Gonzo Okanagan & K96.3 Kelowna’s Classic Rock is to reach out and bring some awareness and light into the local Central Okanagan Music Scene by featuring their new music, events and in general, some light into the changes we’ve all had to adjust to in 2020. We all feel the strain in every aspect of these changes and are going to try to do our best to fill our cups up with some fantastic local music while many so of us hang on through this bumpy ride we are on. ?

Making an effort to change our own thoughts and habits, can strike a chord mentally and change us along with our communities lives. Be safe and…let’s ROCK N ROLL!

“Check out Yukon Blonde frontman and Kelowna native Jeff Innes flying a plane over some amazing BC spots in this amazing airborne interview with YouTube Talkshow host Mathew from Radio Chatter. This video was shot pre-covid.
This is one of the coolest things I’ve seen as far as interviewing our musicians goes so, a big thanks to Radio Chatter for reaching out to us to be part of such a fantastic interview. Who wouldn’t want to do that? I think I might crap my pants but…I’d still do it! 😛
