Celebrating over 50 years of rock - April Wine come to The Plaza Live on Feb. 12, 2027
Fans of April Wine can look forward to a set featuring their hard-rocking 1970s and 80s catalog, including staples like Roller, Say Hello, and the ballad Just Between You and Me.
Canadian band, April Wine is currently on tour across North America with over 30 upcoming concerts scheduled through 2027, and have recently added new shows, including a stop in Orlando at The Plaza Live on February 12, 2027.
In addition to their own headline shows, the rock band are joining fellow Canadian rock icons Triumph for the second leg of their Triumph Tour.
Tickets for the Feb. 12 show at The Plaza Live are on sale now.
The current April Wine lineup features Brian Greenway on guitar, Richard Lanthier on bass, Roy Nichol on drums and Marc Parent on lead vocals and guitar. Parent stepped into the frontman role in late 2022, following Myles Goodwyn’s decision to stop touring due to health reasons.
Goodwyn’s death in December 2023 marked the end of an era for the band. However, April Wine have continued touring, focusing on celebrating the catalogue that made them one of Canada’s most successful rock exports.
Formed in 1969, April Wine developed a reputation for melodic hard rock balanced by emotional ballads. Songs such as Just Between You And Me, Sign Of The Gypsy Queen, Roller, I Like To Rock, Say Hello, Oowatanite and Enough Is Enough remain staples of classic rock radio.
April Wine released their breakthrough album On Record in 1972, scoring major Canadian hits with You Could Have Been A Lady and Bad Side Of The Moon. Throughout the 1970s, albums such as Stand Back, The Whole World’s Goin’ Crazy and First Glance cemented their status as arena headliners at home.
International recognition peaked in the early 1980s with The Nature Of The Beast, driven by Just Between You And Me and Sign Of The Gypsy Queen. The band toured relentlessly, sharing stages with The Rolling Stones, Rush, Styx and Heart.
Their longevity has been recognised with multiple honours. April Wine were inducted into the Canadian Music Industry Hall Of Fame in 2009, the Canadian Music Hall Of Fame in 2010, and Canada’s Walk Of Fame in 2023.
