Still time to get your tickets for ‘Remember the Legends’ tribute show coming to Moose Jaw Aaron Walker - Moose Jaw Express
There’s only a couple more weeks to get your tickets for Saskatchewan’s own Brenda Lee Cottrell’s tribute show coming to the Mae Wilson Theatre on Friday, May 9. “Remember the Legends,” described as “very powerful, emotional, and interactive,” will take guests on a musical journey through eras and genres with a little something for everyone. The theatre will come to life as Cottrell is joined by Chris Henderson to pay tribute to some of music’s most iconic names. “This year, we’ve expanded our show to include everybody’s favorite vintage ladies, but we’ve also got ladies from many other eras intertwined in-between,” Cottrell said. This year’s lineup includes artists such as Patsy Cline, Loretta Lynn, Carole King, Joni Mitchell, Celine Dion, Whitney Houston, k.d. lang, Olivia Newton-John, Barbra Streisand, Aretha Franklin, and more. Joining Cottrell is Chris Henderson, a three-time Saskatchewan Country Music Association (SCMA) Male Artist of the Year winner and a well-known name in the province’s country music scene. “Chris Henderson is one of the biggest stars that we have in Saskatchewan,” she said. “He’s a songwriter, he’s a sing-
er, and he’s fabulous. He’s going to join me… on stage and do some very powerful duets of legendary couples.” The duo will perform duets inspired by famous musical pairings, from Ian and Sylvia to June and Johnny Cash, and from Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood to George Jones and Tammy Wynette. Cottrell says there’s going to be a little bit of something for everyone… Beyond the music, Remember the Legends will include multimedia imagery and video projections to enhance the nostalgic experience. “Not only are you going to be able to watch (stunning visuals), but you’re going to be able to listen to the music,” Cottrell said. “It’s a sensory journey, really, because
(guests are) hearing the (artist’s specific nuances) and they’re hearing the song.” A celebration of Canadian talent Cottrell emphasized that Remember the Legends will be celebrating Canadian music, noting that the tributary lineup features exclusively Canadian artists. With both Cottrell and Henderson calling Saskatchewan home, their Moose Jaw tour stop holds special significance. “This is home,” she said. “(We invite you to) come out and support some Canadian music.” Since the concert falls just two days before Mother’s Day, Cottrell suggested it’s the perfect way to celebrate. “This is an early Mother’s Day kickoff event,” she said. “If you’re looking to (give) a really special Mother’s Day gift, or if you want to just come and start spring off with something special, this could be a really fun… weekend.” For more information, visit BrendaLeeCottrell.com and ChrisHendersonMusic.com.
