River Street Promotions took that idea to heart when they put together the Homestand ‘21 concert earlier this year, and on Saturday night, their efforts were rewarded.
Over 1,000 music fans filled the Ross Wells Park outfield to hear performances from five bands throughout the night, enjoying a chance to be a part of one of the largest gatherings in Moose Jaw since the pandemic restrictions were ended.
They were treated to performances by Barney Bentall and The Caribou Express, Nice Horse, JJ Shiplett, Dustin Bentall and Kacy and Clayton, with the show running throughout the evening.
And other than a brief rain shower early on, fans were treated to an almost perfect night, with Barney Bentall taking the stage as the headliner under a starry sky.
Best of all? The whole venture will see proceeds donated to the Prairie South School Division for mental health education and wellness, while a portion will also go towards the beautification of Ross Wells Park.
Here are a handful of photos from JJ Shiplett’s performance, and be sure to check back for more from the event!
