Starting up new this year, the folks at the Grandview Golf & Country Club have invited us to provide an evening’s entertainment, along with a few other bands on Friday evenings through the season in the restaurant. We’re thrilled to be playing there several times this summer… check our calendar and come on out! Open to the public.

July 10th, Campbell + Green will be opening up for Ken Yates at The Company House.
– Can’t wait! Born and Raised in London, Ontario, Ken Yates moved to Boston to study songwriting at Berklee College of Music. It was there that he developed his skills as a songwriter, releasing his first CD, “The Backseat EP”, and received the opportunity to play a song for one of his biggest influences, John Mayer. Mayer even posted a full page blog about Yates’ ability as a writer stating, “Ken Yates wrote a song called ‘I Don’t Wanna Fall In Love’… this song moved me when I first heard it and still does today”. Yates’ EP received high critical acclaim, leading to a slew of online covers from fans. He has toured with many notable names including veteran singer/songwriter and mentor, Livingston Taylor, Sister Hazel, Peter Katz, and Liz Longley and has songs in heavy rotation on Sirius XM’s The Coffee House where he was nominated for The Coffee House Songwriter Discovery of the Year. His debut full length album twenty-three, recorded in Holland and produced by Joren van der Voort is available now with Mishara Music

In addition to these gigs, we will be getting back into the studio any day now to start work on a second album of all original tunes which we are very exited about. We will be working once again with our most excellent producer, Jamie Robinson, whose creative abilities never cease to astound us. Bring it on!
