2023 “Song of The Year” Grammy Award-Winning Performer Bonnie Raitt will return to Canada with her first headlining tour of the country since 2017. Joined by Special Guest Royal Wood on nine dates, the ‘Just Like That…’ Tour 2023 will make 11 stops in Canada including a stop at the South Okanagan Events Centre (SOEC) in Penticton on Friday, September 22, 2023!

Bonnie Raitt is a singer, songwriter and guitarist whose unique style blends blues, R&B, rock, and pop. After 20 years as a cult favorite, she broke through to the top in the early 90s with her GRAMMY-award winning albums, ‘Nick of Time’ and ‘Luck of the Draw,’ which featured hits, “Something To Talk About” and “I Can’t Make You Love Me” among others. The ten-time Grammy winner was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2000 and Rolling Stone named the slide guitar ace one of the “100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time” and one of the “100 Greatest Singers of All Time.”

Singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer Royal Wood has established himself as a true musical talent. Since being named “Songwriter of the Year” by iTunes (2010), Wood has continued to evolve and hone his musical craft – maintaining an unmistakable identity while uncovering and reinventing his sound. Wood has two albums that have debuted in the Top 30, multiple JUNO nominations, 5-time Canadian Folk Music Award-nominee, and a #1 added song at Hot AC radio. His songs have been heard on high profile sync placements like Grey’s Anatomy, and Private Practice.

Juno Award-Winning Billy Talent is heading to the South Okanagan Events Centre (SOEC) Penticton on Friday, October 13 with special guests Gob.
ABOUT BILLY TALENT:
Canadian punk quartet Billy Talent spent the latter part of the 1990s building a hard-won grassroots following before breaking out into mainstream success in 2003 when their Juno Award-winning debut Billy Talent went quadruple-platinum, sending them on an upward trajectory for much of the decade. As they began to incorporate new elements into their music, their fans followed, helping to lift each of their subsequent studio albums — including the multi-platinum Billy Talent II and III — to the top of the Canadian Albums chart. By the time of 2016’s Afraid of Heights, Billy Talent had become a highly decorated rock act with an international fan base and years of hard touring to their credit. After a six-year gap, they returned with their sixth set, 2022’s Crisis of Faith, which landed 3 consecutive #1 songs at Canadian Rock Radio, leading to two Juno Nominations.
ABOUT GOB:
You wouldn’t be too hard pressed to come up with a lengthy list of bands to have popped up over the last two decades that borrow from seminal Canadian pop-punk outfit Gob. Coming up with a list of bands that Gob borrows from, on the other hand, is a much tougher task – especially after getting a taste of their latest full-length release, Apt 13.
Over the course of their career, which dates back to 1993 and includes a catalog of seven LPs, the members of Gob – vocalist/guitarist Tom Thacker, vocalist guitarist Theo Goutzinakis, drummer Gabe Mantle, and bassist Steven Fairweather – have established themselves as Canadian pop punk pioneers. They’ve amassed JUNO nominations, made massively popular music videos for singles like “I Hear You Calling” and “Give Up The Grudge,” and kept legions of loyal fans packed into pits in front of the stage at countless venues – from dive bars to major festival stages the world over.

The annual “Teddy & Toque Toss” event hosted by the Penticton Vees is scheduled for Saturday, December 9th, against the Salmon Arm Silverbacks at the South Okanagan Events Centre (SOEC), presented by Bannister Chevrolet Penticton.
This season, the focus has shifted from stuffed toys to a call for new or gently used winter outerwear (including toques, gloves, jackets, etc.) for all age groups, as well as new and packaged diapers. While stuffed toys are still appreciated, the Salvation Army has identified a growing demand for winter outerwear in recent years. Attendees will have the opportunity to contribute by tossing their soft donations onto the ice following the Vees’ first goal of the game.
In conjunction with the soft goods collection, the Salvation Army will be accepting food and cash donations at the top of Gate 1 on the main concourse. It is emphasized that food and cash donations should not be thrown onto the ice.
The game night sponsor, Bannister Chevrolet Penticton, will be on-site with great prizes to be won! Fans are encouraged to visit their table on the main concourse to participate in a chance to win one of three prizes or engage with their team to learn about special in-store offers at the dealership.
