Back by popular demand! Ray Sawyer rocked the Yukon Convention Centre in front of a sold-out crowd last February—and now he's coming back for more! Known as much for their crazy onstage behaviour as for a solid string of 1970s chart-toppers, Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show were once described by Rolling Stone as the "clown princes of Seventies Pop." Among their zany antics, the band once dressed up as glitter rockers and played opening act to their own headlining show—unbeknownst to the audience. Co-fronted by founding member Ray Sawyer (dubbed "Dr. Hook" for his trademark eye-patch), the band spent more than ten years on the music charts, earning thirty-five gold and platinum records for country-rock hits that included "Cover of the Rolling Stone," "Sylvia's Mother," "Once Sixteen" and "Sharing the Night Together." Today, Ray carries on the Dr. Hook name, revisiting the band's hits and his own solo material in a show guaranteed to take audiences on a wild ride back to the hey-day of AM pop radio.
