In 1961, Del Shannon roared out
of Battle Creek, Mich, writing and
recording four smash hits in one
year including “Runaway” and
“Hats Off To Larry”.
“Little Town Flirt” was one of
his 1962 hits in which the style
sounded amazingly like The
Beatles, Searchers and Hollies.
Very few artists have sustained a
successful careerfor20years, even
more rare is one who sounds as
creative and contemporary in 1987
as 1967.
Del Shannon will appear at the
Huron Country Playhouse on July
12.
at Friday night dances in Rich
mond Hill, Aurora and New
Market.
They were national superstars
then with a hit television show -
“It’s Happening” and a faithful
following that tuned in every week
to hear the latest in rock music.
The 22-year veteran of show
business has represented such
bands as Triumph and The Good
Brothers, but his break came in
1963 when Ronnie Hawkins asked
the group to play at Yonge St.
Tavern in Toronto.
Singing such rhythm and blues
as “Fannie Mae” and “Ain’t Love
On August 30 Jan and Dean will
perform two shows at the play

“Surf City”, “Dead Man’s
Curve” and “Little Old Lady”
were and still remain favorites of
the 50s and 60s.
Tickets for all performances are
available at the Huron Country
Playhouse.
