The Reklaws, Ashley Cooke, Griffen Palmer

Corona Theater, Montreal QC
Last night, Ontario Country duo The Reklaws brought their Winter’s A Beach tour to the Corona Theater! The tour was very aptly named, given the snowstorm outside, but that didn’t stop fans from showing up in masses! The band had initially been scheduled to play at Studio TD, but the overwhelming demand made them fill up the Corona instead!
In front of an already-growing crowd, Griffen Palmer opened the evening. Alone with his guitar on stage, he charmed the audience with a soft and intimate set.
Up next, Nashville’s Ashley Cooke rocked the stage with her musicians! She had a great deal of energy and chemistry with the audience, a perfect combo to warm the crowd for the main act.
Shortly before 9.30m, our favorite Country siblings The Reklaws arrived on stage to a thunder of applause. While we had enjoyed their set at Lasso this summer, this performance was on another level! Maybe it was due to the setting more intimate than Parc Jean Drapeau, or maybe to the stark contrast between the icy outdoors and warm inside, but something just worked and make the duo’s show feel magical. Jenna and Stuart commanded the stage, keeping the audience in the palm of their hand from beginning to end!
All in all, the Winter’s A Beach tour was the perfect escape from the snow outside, and a great way to spend a Sunday night!
