On Tuesday night, Kelowna was given a real treat as country/contemporary singer, Johnny Reid rolled through town on the back of his soul train.

Riding on the high of his latest Juno nominated album, Revival, Reid seemed more than revived with an infectiously exuberant stage presence and a pitch-perfect voice.

Keeping things true to his latest album, Reid opened with the dance-inspiring tracks “Soul Train” and “Memphis”, getting audience members on their feet at literally the first note.

Not even halfway through his second song, Reid was already off the stage and running through the arena ready to meet his fans at the back of the bowl and amp them up for what was looking to be a night to remember.

Backed by a 14-piece band, Reid showcased that he is more than your typical chart-topper. From his rasp soaked vocals, to the jaw-dropping instrumentation put forth by each band member whether it be on trumpet, keys or guitar, and the smiles that never left their faces, the passion put forth was palpable.

A good time for all involved, in addition to playing his hits like “Woman Like You” and “Every Time I Roll The Dice”, Reid hit Prospera Place with a medley of some of time’s most classic hits, including “Proud Mary” and “Sweet Caroline”.
