Faber Drive Rocks Out at Calgary Stampede

by jeannedupu on July 4th, 2008

I went to the Faber Drive concert last night at the Calgary Stampede and I was really blown away. Their energy was incredible! It can be so tough when you are on an outdoor stage competing with the sounds of carnival rides and games but I practically forgot I was even at the Stampede. It was great.

Of course, they performed songs from their debut album “Seven Second Surgery” like “Second Chance” and a truly excellent version of “When I’m With You.”

Lead singer, Dave Faber, also told the crowd that the band will be filming a video with Canadian Idol winner, Brian Melo this Sunday in Vancouver. Can’t wait to see it!

Just in case you aren’t familiar with the band, the members of Faber Drive are:

David William Faber – Lead Vocals and Guitar

David Joshua Hinsley – Lead Guitar and Backing Vocals

Jeremy “Krikit” Michael Liddle – Bass Guitar and Backing Vocals

Calvin “Poncho” Lechner - Drums and Backing Vocals (joined 2008)
