Forestburg’s Concert Series opens strong with Northern Beauties

Northern Beauties opened Forestburg’s 29th consecutive Concert Series, on Saturday, Nov. 18.

The western folk band from Calgary played a few of their original songs from their YYC Music Calgary Award winning EP as well as paid tribute to some of music’s fallen greats; Gord Downie, Tom Petty, and most recently deceased, AC/DC’s Malcolm Young.

Lead vocalists Todd Stewart and Craig Aikman kept the crowd laughing with their back and forth banter as well as Stewart’s stories behind a few of their upcoming EP songs.

Aikman had done some Facebook stalking on Forestburg before the event and shared some of his findings, joking that they’d have to tell their agent that “half of the population of Forestburg came out to hear us play!”
