Studio 79 is excited to welcome The Grapes of Wrath: Unplugged to our up close & personal studio space. ✨ A perfect setting for their tour, as Tom and Kevin are hitting the road as a duo to perform The Grapes’ music in an intimate and unplugged setting, telling the stories behind the songs and putting the focus on the harmonies and melodies of their timeless music. After bonding over a mutual love of The Beatles, drummer Chris Hooper introduced Kevin Kane to his younger brother Tom Hooper in 1977. While still attending elementary and junior high school in Kelowna BC, the trio began learning to play their instruments together during regular Friday night jam sessions in the basement of the Hoopers’ suburban home. Influenced in equal parts by the British Invasion of the 60s and the DIY attitudes and immediacy of punk and new wave, the group took the name The Grapes Of Wrath in 1983, and began working on the songs that would make up their debut EP. Their records spawned some of the most well-known Canadian songs of the 80s and 90s, including Peace Of Mind, Backward Town, All The Things I Wasn’t, What Was Going Through My Head, I Am Here and You May Be Right.
