Time to rock out with my... boots out? 🤘🤘🎸
Country Music has always taken it's place every July long weekend at Dauphin's Countryfest, but this year the 730 CKDM's Thursday Kick Off Party is all about ROCK N ROLL. 🎸
Canada's most talented supergroup TOQUE will be headlining the stage to give us the best kick off to the festival we could ask for. Covering the best of the best in Canadian Classic Rock History as well as playing some badass original tunes! There's a reason the guys in Toque are hired guns for some of the top artists in the world such as Slash, Alice Cooper, Shania Twain, PINK, Kelly Clarkson and Reba. Come experience your new favourite All-Canadian rock band. 🇨🇦
The nights festivities don't begin - or end - with Toque, hailing from Winnipeg Manitoba, all female rockers The Haileys will be rockin' a Joan Jett & The Blackhearts set, while our hometown Dauphin boys Kates Outlaw will be channeling Gord as they bring us an awesome set of Tragically Hip tunes.
DJ JOHNNY RIVEX will replace his cowboy hat with an 80s hair metal wig and a leather jacket as he brings us a new DJ set filled with chart-topping rock tunes.
So much more is in store for our Rockin' Thursday Kick Off Party at Dauphin's Countryfest. Stay tuned to our socials as we talk about the Red Tie Productions Battle of the Bands and more local acts playing on Thursday night!
Tickets for Thursday Night are only $30 so we encourage everyone who has ever wanted to see what the festival is all about to attend the kick off party with us, and who knows - maybe we'll end up spending the weekend together!
