Rising out of the ashes of psychedelia in 1969 Canada’s legendary Chilliwack released 12 albums over a 15 year period producing numerous Canadian and international hits including “Lonesome Mary” in 1970; “Fly At Night”, “Arms Of Mary”, and “California Girl” in the mid 70’s; “Communication Breakdown” in 1979; and “My Girl (gone gone gone)”, “I Believe”, “Whatcha Gonna Do” and “Don’t Stop” between ‘81 and ’84.
All this work led to fifteen gold and platinum certifications, a host of awards, high profile television appearances and coliseum concert tours. Chilliwack’s reputation for consistently powerful shows led one journalist to propose an insurance policy covering career damage to major international artists who had to appear on the same stage.
Now in their 35th year, and with the live CD THERE AND BACK still winning over young classic rockers and delighting long time fans, Bill Henderson and the band are rocking like never before. Hearing the revitalized Chilliwack of 2006 is hearing those songs for the first time… all over again.
And, hearing their latest song, “Patent On The Wind” - a powerful rock indictment of the ownership of life forms – you realize that Chilliwack is about more than nostalgia.
