floodgates for the new Traditionalist movement in country music. Now

one albums, 6 Grammy awards., 6CMA’S, 9 ACM’S, 10 AMA’S, 7 Dove
awards, and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame—Randy Travis is the
rare and lucky man who’s been able to make all his dreams come true.
His numerous hits such as Forever and Ever, On the other Hand
,Digging up Bones, Deeper than the Holler, Three Wooden Crosses, and
many more have cemented Randy Travis into a category of one of the
most influential country singers of our time.

F.J.
Hurtak GM of the Kootenay Concert Connection said “We feel very
fortunate to have acquired the services of one of country music’s
greatest and memorable artists. April 27th will indeed be
a very special night, with one very special artist”. Chris New the
Leisure Development Manager at the Rec Plex, is co-producing the
show with Hurtak for the City of Cranbrook and echoed Hurtak’s
sentiments by saying “We are doing this show in the concert bowl
with 1850 seats with the stage facing the luxury suites, so everyone
is going to get a great view and great sound. I would encourage
people to buy their tickets early to avoid disappointment as this
show will surely be a sellout. This is a once in a lifetime
opportunity to see and hear a remarkable world renowned talent, and
certainly with 24 people in the Travis entourage and three full size
tour busses this will probably be one of the biggest country shows,
if not the biggest, our area has ever seen.”
