After bonding over a mutual love of The Beatles, drummer Chris Hooper introduced Kevin Kane to his younger brother Tom Hooper in 1977. While still attending elementary and junior high school in Kelowna, BC, the trio began learning to play their instruments together during regular Friday night jam sessions in the basement of the Hoopers’ suburban home.

Influenced in equal parts by the British invasion of the 60s and the DIY attitudes and immediacy of punk and new wave, the group took the name The Grapes of Wrath in 1983.

This year, Tom and Kevin are once again hitting the road as a duo to perform The Grapes’ music in an intimate and unplugged setting, telling the stories behind the songs and putting the focus on the harmonies and melodies of their timeless music. Sunday October 19.
