The Stampeders: One More Time Tour

The Stampeders – are bringing along all their classic hits: “Wild Eyes,” “Carry Me,” “Oh My Lady,” “Devil You,” “Ramona,” “Minstrel Gypsy,” “Hit the Road Jack” and, of course, the quintessential Canadian – and Hall of Fame – song, “Sweet City Woman.”

A quick look at Canada’s music scene from 1971 until 1976 confirms The Stampeders were the country’s international musical ambassadors, touring more extensively in Canada and overseas than any other Canadian group during that time. In 1977, the trio Rich Dodson (lead guitar), Kim Berly (drums), and Ronnie King (bass) parted company but reunited, fittingly at the Calgary Stampede, 15 years later in 1992. Since then, they’ve been recognized by SOCAN for their Lifetime Achievement, been inducted into the SOCAN Songwriters Hall of Fame on five occasions, and the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame for their 1971 seminal hit “Sweet City Woman.”
