Three Days Grace coming to Okanagan

PENTICTON – Internationally acclaimed Canadian band Three Days Grace will be making a stop in Penticton as part of their upcoming tour.

The multi-platinum band will be at Penticton’s South Okanagan Events Centre on Saturday, Dec. 15, 2018 for "The Outsider Tour."

Three Days Grace, who have recently released their sixth album “Outsider”, are accompanied on the tour with special guests Bad Wolves and Nothing More.

"Infra-red", the group’s latest single, is a follow up to “The Mountain”, which became yet another chart topping single to add to the group’s all-time record of most number one singles in the active rock radio format, according to a media release.

“To me, Outsider represent the journey to find your place,” says bass player Brad Walst in the release. “The world feels crazy at times. We try to get away from that every once in a while. We do our own thing and we’re comfortable doing it. We have always looked forward and not backwards. That’s an ongoing theme.”

The band has two number one singles, “Painkiller” and “I Am A Machine”, on the active radio chart.

Their 2012 album, "Transit of Venus" garnered a nod for Best Rock Album of the Year at the Juno Awards.

Tickets go on sale Friday, July 20 at 10 a.m. online at www.ValleyFirstTix.com.

I have been looking for news in the South Okanagan - SImilkameen for 20 years, having turned a part time lifelong interest into a full time profession. After five years publishing a local newsletter, several years working as a correspondent / stringer for several local newspapers and seven years as editor of a Similkameen weekly newspaper, I joined iNFOnews.ca in 2014. My goal in the news industry has always been to deliver accurate and interesting articles about local people and places. My interest in the profession is life long - from my earliest memories of grade school, I have enjoyed writing.
As an airborne geophysical surveyor I travelled extensively around the globe, conducting helicopter borne mineral surveys.
I also spent several years at an Okanagan Falls based lumber mill, producing glued-wood laminated products.
As a member of the Kaleden community, I have been involved in the Kaleden Volunteer Fire Department for 22 years, and also serve as a trustee on the Kaleden Irrigation District board.
I am currently married to my wife Judy, of 26 years. We are empty-nesters who enjoy living in Kaleden with our Welsh Terrier, Angus, and cat, Tibbs.
Our two daughters, Meagan and Hayley, reside in Richmond and Victoria, respectively.
