I had to leave Bears of Hazenmore early because I wanted to catch at least some of Dave McCann and the Firehearts’ set at Casino Lethbridge, Saturday, June 2.

 They didn’t have many people left by the time I arrived around 11:30 p.m. But most of them were happily two stepping to a set of mostly original music , much from  their most Recent CD “Circle of Light” as well as a few obscure country  songs from Gram Parsons and the Rolling Stones’ “Wild Horses.”

Dave Bauer played tasteful  leads, while McCann uncannily resembled Todd Snider in voice and manner.

 Shawn Worden grooved and writhed as he played bass and Kyle Harmon was unstoppable behind the skins.
