by ANDREA NEMETZ, Entertainment Reporter, Herald
PARRSBORO NS: After rocking the house and bringing down the roof at last year’s sold-out concert, Hal Bruce returns to the Ship’s Company Theatre stage to deliver a rousing and nostalgic night of the Beatles classic songs on Monday, August 16th at 8 p.m.
A seasoned musician, singer, and world traveler, Hal Bruce has performed in Beatles festivals and events around the world - in the U.S., England, Cuba, Sweden, France, Belgium, Australia. Hal is the only North American performer to have been inducted into the International Beatle Week Festival Hall of Fame in Liverpool, England. Hal was also inducted into the Hall of Fame at Abbey Road on the River Beatles Festival, all in recognition of his dedication, his tremendous spirit, and his expert musicianship. Hal has performed all 214 released Beatles songs in a non-stop medley, and is known world-wide for his fervour in perpetuating the group’s music.
Hal is the organizer of the Annual Maritime Beatle Event in Halifax which draws guest bands from around the world - a perennial favourite event among fans of the Fab Four and their music.
A dynamic and energetic performer, Hal Bruce will be joined in Parrsboro by drummer and partner in harmony, Scott Ferguson, as they bring timeless Beatles favourites to life and bring the audience to their feet!
