The Cooper Brothers featuring Colin Linden and special guest Jonas
Saturday, February, 27, 8:00 pm
The Cooper Brothers are a 70s Canadian southern rock band founded in Ottawa, Ontario, by brothers Brian Cooper and Dick Cooper and their long-time friend Terry King. The band first gained international attention in the summer of 1978. Over the next few years the Cooper Brothers released two albums produced by Cape under the Capricorn label, the self-titled, The Cooper Brothers and Pitfalls of the Ballroom. Both albums sold extremely well and the singles "The Dream Never Dies", "Show Some Emotion" and "I'll Know Her When I See Her"[2], all charted on The Billboard Hot 100.[3]

Brent Butt
Wednesday, February 10, 8:00 p.m.
Brent Butt was born in Tisdale, Saskatchewan on August 3. The youngest of seven children, Brent discovered that making people laugh was the quickest way to get their attention. In an environment where sharp wits triumphed over pull-my-finger gags, Brent learned to 'work clean' at a very early age. However, you can only build a comedy career so far in Tisdale- and so it wasn't long before Brent headed for the bright lights of Toronto. In a few years he went from doing 5 minutes on amateur night in Saskatoon to performing professionally for huge crowds in Canada and the United States.
Brent's style, which he refers to as "coffee shop humour", is comfortable and relaxed. Brent's career has continued to build momentum over the years. From doing Television Specials on every network in Canada to sold out concert shows in theatres across the country, Brent established himself as one of Canada's favourite funnymen. In 2003, he teamed up with CTV to create the hugely popular sitcom "CORNER GAS".
