Description
What do Bryan Adams, Ringo, Trooper, Chilliwack and Prism all have in common? At some point in their music career they all worked with New West resident Michael Dunn. In this special mini-podcast, For the Record interviews Dunn to talk about the local music scene, his upcoming concert and more. In 2023, he finally recorded his own album “Bridge Across the Years” inspired by the great bands of the 70’s and 80’s and drawing on an international cast of exceptional musicians. Released to great critical response, the album will see its first public performance at The Anvil Theatre on November 9. In addition to performing their own album, you can look forward to hearing thrilling tributes to the acts that inspired the album including songs by Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, The Rolling Stones and more. Dunn has pulled together an exceptional ensemble cast of 12 musicians to help him pull this off including Marc Gladstone (Prism), Clayton Hill (Trooper) and Mike Russell (Nick Gilder, Sweeney Todd). Also joining will be two of Vancouver’s most highly regarded female vocalists, Joani Bye (who can be heard on albums ranging from Cher to David Bowie and Bon Jovi) and Cathy St. Germain (whose credits include work with Paul Rodgers, Ray Charles and Loverboy). Partial proceeds are being donated to the New Westminster Secondary School band program to help support the great work they do in instilling a love of music in young people.
