Listen "Brett Kissel for the front line workers"
Episode Synopsis
Lucky fans in Truro are about to be treated to back-to-back shows from Country Music performer Brett Kissel. The Alberta-born singer-songwriter is performing the concerts at the Rath Eastlink Community Centre in tribute to the essential and frontline workers. And the tickets for both shows were handed out for free earlier this year. Kissel describes his start in the music business getting to hear himself on the radio at the age of eleven singing a Hank Snow song. A few decades and his ten album is being released this year, a four part box set called The Compass Series. From his Ukrainian roots to missing out on the last April Wine show with Myles Goodwyn, Kissel says he doesn’t know if any westerner loves the East more than he does. And the feeling appears to be reciprocal.
