Cod Gone Wild is making the rounds, in Newfoundland tradition.
The band is performing a small number of Christmas shows around the Okanagan as a trio featuring members Andrew Mercer (lead vocals, guitar), Susan Aylard (fiddle) and Sean Bray (electric guitar) in an intimate, up-close and personal performance.
The trio will be making a return visit to cities and towns in our own backyard continuing the Neighbourhood Rounds tradition, at a time when people desperately need that community connection.

On this street there lived a tight knit group of neighbours, who regularly got together to celebrate birthdays and anniversaries,91裸聊视频 said Mercer. 91裸聊视频淵ears ago, a tradition was started at Christmas time to go around the neighbourhood and visit each house, taking the time to have a drink, some food, and to spin a few yarns (tell stories) at each stop along the way.91裸聊视频
