April Wine with Carl Dixon (Music of The Guess Who) | Rockin' the Downs Summer Concert Series

Spring 2012 marked a pivotal moment for legendary rock band April Wine as Roy "Nip" Nichol took over drumming duties, adding a new dynamic to his singing talents. Fast forward to 2023, and the band is set for another chapter with Myles Goodwyn stepping down from the lead position after a remarkable career. In his place, Marc Parent has been chosen to lead, fulfilling the role he couldn't take on in 2014. With the rest of the seasoned lineup, including Brian Greenway (46 years), Richard Lanthier (13 years), and Roy Nichol (11 years), April Wine is poised to continue its legacy.

Myles Goodwyn bid farewell during his last official "live" show in Truro, Nova Scotia, in March 2023. The "new lineup" showcases Marc Parent's experience, promising a fresh but seasoned approach. Fans eagerly await April Wine's next performance, anticipating the continuation of the band's iconic rock journey under the guidance of these accomplished musicians. Join Batavia Downs on July 5 as April Wine, one of Canada's foremost rock bands, takes the stage!
