Lorsque nous avons présenté les Slocan Ramblers le 7 mai 2017, nous les avons
annoncés comme l'un des meilleurs groupes de bluegrass au Canada. Aujourd'hui, 7 ans
plus tard, ils sont plus généralement reconnus comme le meilleur groupe de bluegrass
canadien. Ce qui est formidable avec ce groupe, c'est que même les personnes qui ne sont
pas des fans de bluegrass aiment leurs concerts. Le site web du groupe vous permet de
vous rendre instantanément au Grand Ole Opry où ils se sont produits à quelques reprises
ces dernières années.

When we presented the Slocan Ramblers on May 7, 2017 we promoted them as one of
the best bluegrass bands in Canada. Now, 7 years later, they have proven us right because
they are more widely recognized as the best Canadian bluegrass band. The great thing
about the band is that even people who aren't bluegrass fans enjoy their live
performances. The Slocan Ramblers are also part of the folk and roots music scene. The
band's website brings you instantly to a performance at the Grand Ole Opry where they
have performed several times over the years.
