Westerner Days a homecoming for Dear Rouge
A live performance by Dear Rouge on the TD Main Stage at Westerner Days Saturday night was a homecoming of sorts for at least one half of the Vancouver-based duo.
The group which was nominated for Pop Artist of the Year, Recording of the Year for their second album ‘Phases’ and Songwriter(s) of the Year for ‘Chains’ in 2018 at the Western Canadian Music Awards, is made of Drew and Danielle McTaggart, with Danielle originally hailing from Red Deer.
Speaking with the BIG Breakfast Show’s Jody Evans on Friday, Danielle says being back at Westerner Park brings back lots of memories, including her high school graduation from École Secondaire Notre Dame High School.
However, husband Drew says spending time in new surroundings like New York City recently has also been good for them.
