Vernon partied like it was a Friday night, on a Monday - thanks to country artist Brett Kissel coming to town.
The Canadian Country Music Association (CCMA) Awardssa国际传媒� reigning Male Artist of the Year had fans of all ages clapping along and stomping their boots to such hits as We Were That Song and his latest hit, Anthem.

The 27-year-old Alberta resident was all over the stage. And the crowd was loving every minute.
Among those in the audience was 90-year-old sa国际传媒淕randpa Kensa国际传媒� - fiddle superstar Tyler Vollrathsa国际传媒檚 relative. Vollrath grew up listening to his grandpa sa国际传媒淟eftysa国际传媒� who retired to the Okanagan. Grandpasa国际传媒檚 eyes swelled with pride as he watched Vollrath wow the crowd with his talent.
Joining Kissel on stage for one cover song, was a friend he grew up with, Trevor Panczak - who admittedly grew up a lot bigger than Kissel, whom he towered over.
Opening for Kissel was Dan Davidson, known for such hits as Found. Like Kissel, he bounced all over the stage with energy. Davidson also took the time to meet with fans in the lobby, signing hats, tickets and even an arm.
