The Kerplunks

The Vernon and District Performing Arts Centre Society proudly presents The Kerplunks on Sunday, April 15 at 3:00pm at the Vernon and District Performing Arts Centre for the final show in our 2017/18 'First Stages' Series.

Engaging, colourful and high-energy, this four-piece multi-instrumental band will have the whole family up on their feet! The Kerplunks, an award-winning Canadian group of children's entertainers, bring high quality musicality and creativity together for an enjoyable educational experience.

Since their inception in 2006, The Kerplunks have released four albums and a ten-video DVD, receiving countless awards for their songwriting, including three consecutive JUNO nominations. The popular group has toured to many of Canada's highest profile events, and their successes have garnered them international recognition and CD sales around the world. Featuring Dinah D on Upright Bass and Vocals, Jocelyn Hallett on Keyboards, Horns and Vocals, Aaron Cadwaladr on Guitar and Vocals, and Phil Wipper on Drums, the multi-talented group has unrivaled stage presence that gets audiences of all ages singing along.

Bringing to Vernon their fourth studio album Pants & Mammals, The Kerplunks make everyday items and ideas hilariously fun! Each of their catchy songs have participatory actions and sing-along moments for our 'First Stages' audience to enjoy. Dubbed our 'No Shushing Season', parents are encouraged to let their little ones dance, sing, and chat along with the performers without the usual stresses of keeping quiet in theatre seats. Bring the whole family for an afternoon of fun and let loose!
