George Canyon will play the Creekside Theatre in Lake Country Oct. 14, 2022.

Canadian Country music veteran and Juno Award winner George Canyon is coming to the Central Okanagan.

The Creekside Theatre in Lake Country has announced that Canyon will play an acoustic show at the venue on October 14, along with special guest Jeff Johnson.

“Iconic Country music hits like Just Like You, I Believe in Angels, Drinkin’Thinkin’, and I Got This, will be easy to recognize in his repertoire,” said Ryan Donn, Lake Country’s Cultural Development Coordinator.

“George Canyon has been establishing himself as one of Canada’s hottest Country music stars since the early 2000s, and we’ve been working to diversify the shows at Creekside Theatre so we thought all the Country music fans would love seeing him in person this year.”

Since rising to fame on the 2004 TV competition show Nashville Star 2, Canyon has recorded 12 albums, winning Juno, CCMA and ECMA awards. He has also branched out into acting, appearing in TV shows like Heartland and Trailer Park Boys.

Jeff Johnson is a five-time producer of the year award winner. He has worked with the likes of Dallas Smith, Joey Moi, Faber Drive, Jet Black Stare, Chris Buck Band and many other notable performers.

“It’s really nice having local Canadian Country Music Association award-winning producer Jeff Johnson as a resource to connect with performers like George Canyon,” emphasized Donn. “And we’re fortunate to have Jeff himself as the opening feature for the George Canyon acoustic performance.”

Tickets are on sale now and start at $79 (including fees and taxes).
