Steven Page Trio and String Quartet

Whistler’s Canada Day concert will feature Canadian Music Hall of Fame inductee Steven Page, who has established himself as one of the most recognizable and enduring voices in entertainment.

As co-founder, vocalist and songwriter with former band Barenaked Ladies, Steven sang and wrote classics like “Brian Wilson” and “If I Had a Million Dollars.” As a solo artist, he has continued his musical journey performing and writing music, working in film, theatre and television and is an award-winning public speaker on the topic of mental health.

His stellar band, The Steven Page Trio includes Craig Northey of Vancouver legends Odds on guitar, the multi-talented Kevin Fox on cello resulting in three-part harmonies to die for. For this special show, the Trio will be accompanied by a string quartet composed of some of Canada’s finest classical musicians. Together they will perform songs from Steven Page’s vast catalogue of solo material along with lots of Barenaked Ladies hits as only Steven can sing them.
