Nazareth, formed in 1970, took Scottish rock international and paved the way for many other great Scottish bands that came later. Their 1973 breakthrough album Razamanaz was followed up by Loud ‘n’ Proud which contained the single This Flight Tonight and became a massive hit in Canada and Europe. The band became the first foreign band to do a coast-to-coast tour of Canada that wasn’t just part of a North American tour. When they arrived in the country, they were told it was the fastest selling Canadian tour of all time and in fact, had sold out faster than Elvis who had been there recently.
Local rockers The Pumps/Orphan, best known for hit songs Miracle, Success and Lonely at Night, will open the show.
Tickets are on sale Friday, June 6 at 10am.
