Art Pruce entertained in spirit square here last evening. The music sponsored by 16 local business and organizations goes from 6PM to 8PM Thursdays during the summer. Some at the square some at the band shell in Rotary park. Admission is free.

Art produced an album in 2005 and committed last evening to start another next fall. He has had a number of nominations by peers for music excellence. Comments on last nights performance were in the mellow , mood range part of his repertoire include the Beetles.

He didn’t look that old and he makes his home in Kamloops, and originally from Ontario Canada.
