Chase the summer blues away when Armstrong’s Valley First Music in the Park presents Turtle Valley as its next act, Friday, Aug. 5.

The band perform ‘50s hits such as Chapel Of Love and Calendar Girl as well as classics such as Hotel California American Pie along with hits by The Beatles, Beach Boys and CCR.

The band is also known to churn out some classic country by the likes of Johnny Cash, Garth Brooks and Willie Nelson, and even a few dance tunes from The Village People’s YMCA to Queen’s Crazy Little Thing Called Love, just to name a few.

“We’ve got the new stuff covered too by the likes of Meghan Trainor, Luke Bryant and Eric Church,” said singer/drummer Alfie Huston, who with keyboardist Joan Southwood has been rocking the Shuswap and Okanagan for more than a decade.

Valley First credit union continues to sponsor the Armstrong Spallumcheen Chamber of Commerce Music in the Park series, which runs until Aug. 28 in Armstrong’s  Memorial Park.

In the event of rain, the event will move to Armstrong Bible Chapel, 2145 Rosedale Ave.

Bring a non-perishable food item for Valley First’s Feed the Valley program as well as a chair, blanket and picnic.
