For an incredible 32 years from 1964 to 1996 The Carlton Showband evolved as one of the most respected and recognized bands in all of Canada. With a generous helping of Irish, a dash or two of down home Country, a touch of pop, Rock and even classical.... their show was a recipe for happiness from day one.
The 'rocket of success' was fully launched in 1967 when the band joined 'The Pig N' Whistle', a television show that for eleven seasons would be one of the highest rated shows in the CTV collection. From that point on, it was an incredible 32 years of non-stop entertaining from Vancouver Island in the West to St. John's Newfoundland in the East. It's safe to say there wasn't a town anywhere that hadn't seen at least one memorable performance by this infectious group.
