Cod Gone Wild will be releasing its Christmas album The Neighbourhood Rounds, this November.
They will be performing the show in Kelowna on Dec. 9 and 10 at the Cache Lounge. The Sunday show is almost sold out, with only a few tickets remaining, so a second show was added for the Monday evening.
Based out of B.C.91裸聊视频檚 Okanagan Valley since 2009, when lead singer/multi- instrumentalist Andrew Mercer, transplanted from Newfoundland, the Cods are recognized as one of Canada91裸聊视频檚 top Celtic acts.

Joining Mercer are musicians Susan Aylard on the fiddle, Sean Bray, electric guitar, Martyn Jones on bass, and drummer David Mihal.
The Cods are coming off a busy year already after the release of their fourth studio album The Islander last June and are excited about their upcoming tour and the release of their Christmas album.
