Around the Clock with Fred Penner
This month on Around the Clock, rdnewsNOW spoke with a man who for close to five decades has entertained countless Canadians with his award-winning music, Winnipeg’s own Fred Penner.
Winner of the 2018 Juno Award for Children’s Album of the year, the 71-year-old is performing two nights in a row here in Red Deer (details below), including once as part of Alberta Culture Days.
In addition to his live performances over the years, Penner is known for his TV show, Fred Penner’s Place, which aired on CBC from 1985-1997, and south of the border for a number of years.
