The Town Heroes, Party Boots hit Granville Green Sunday

Hailing from Inverness County, The Town Heroes are a four-piece Alternative-Rock band known for crafting catchy, thoughtful songs. They’ve toured the world, released three critically acclaimed albums and won an array of industry awards. Anthemic choruses, 3-part harmonies, tender falsettos and big drums highlight their riff driven, dirty-yet-nuanced barrage of sound. On stage they move like intense caricatures – soaked in sweat, pushing every chord, note and beat to the limit. A structured wall of sound emerges; familiar yet distinctive. Their music is a perfect soundtrack for contemplating life with a bounce in your step.

For the past six years, The Town Heroes have played as a duo – captivating audiences with their remarkably full sound and energetic performances. With a desire to push the envelope even more, in November 2016 the band expanded to become a four-piece. The new lineup reflects and effectively captures the growth, vision, and musical maturity of the band. The Town Heroes at Granville Green is presented by NuStar and Bear Head LNG.

Presented by Exxon Mobil, this week’s opening act is, Party Boots. Party Boots is a band of musical entertainers from Nova Scotia, known for their compelling live show and dynamic, danceable tunes. Diverse, energetic and highly adaptable, they have entertained tens of thousands of music lovers on stages from music rooms and arenas to the major venues and festivals of Atlantic Canada. Quickly becoming one of the most entertaining bands in Canada, they are making their Granville Green debut.

Each concert begins at 7 pm and concertgoers are encouraged to bring blankets and chairs for comfort. In case of inclement weather the Port Hawkesbury Civic Centre will be used.
