"THE LAST WALTZ".........
And just like that our incredible summer of BUSK TIL DUSK comes to an end this Thursday. It only feels right that our last night has a little story behind it..... so stay with me for a moment.
It only feels right to bring the last BTD home with a band that is truly a part of the fabric of our community.."Kitty and the Boyz".
Angela - better known to so many of us as "Kitty" is one of Midland- Simcoe County's most familiar and beloved voices, and if you've heard her sing you know why. She and the talented band Kitty and the Boyz have been bringing people together through music from Midland, Wasaga, Collingwood, Thornbury and beyond for many years. What makes Ang so special is she just doesn't sing to the crowd she sings with them with the incredibly talented Steve Charlebois, Keith Laurie (Chaz), Rob Walker and Tony Anthony Buffone...they take you just about anywhere musically.....and don't be surprised to see Kitty herself end up in the sand dancing with the crowd....that's just who she is. β€οΈ
When she's not on stage you may find Angela doing something completely different, she is an avid and accomplished golfer.
The Last Waltz....those 3 words carry a little more meaning for some of us. For Ang and those who know her family's musical history her Dad was "Jerry Penfold" a connection and member of "The Band" in the early 60's whose story was eventually captured in the legendary movie "The Last Waltz" He was part of the foundational musical collective alongside Levon Helm, Robbie Robertson and Ronnie Hawkins. Kitty was surrounded by rock history!
We are truly grateful to have Kitty and The Boyz join us for the last Busk til Dusk.
So to everyone who has supported, donated, danced, laughed, cheered, shared our posts or simply showed up...
Thank you!!β€οΈπ
The summer was never just about the music, it was about the people. Come make the final BTD one to remember.
