The musical couple have been playing music together for 20 years but played music long before getting together.
Freddie been playing the guitar since 1969, says their website, and “played guitar for Ferlin Husky and toured extensively with singer-songwriter, Ian Tyson.”
The Pelletier Guitar and Music Camp just outside of Birch Hills was a joint project between Freddie and Sheila and one of their highlights to their career. The camps have given Freddie and Sheila great memories and have also made them known in the Humboldt area.
“We have some folks that came to our music camps that we know are going to be at the show.”
Along with past shows in the Humboldt area, Sheila is excited for her Humboldt fans to be given this opportunity to take in their show on Sunday.
The Pellitier’s bring a wide range of music to the stage playing everything from classic country to rock n’ roll. Those attending can also expect some comedy along with the music.
“It’s just a lot of fun and we have some laughs and play some tunes that people will remember.”
Freddie and Sheila have also spent the last 15 years playing as a migratory band.
Tours during the winter months include trips in their motor home down south to play for the snowbird crowd in resorts in Texas, Arizona, and California.
Sheila says they always get love from the snowbirds.
“They have more time to view that kind of stuff and they’re looking for things to do. So they hear that someone from home is playing in Mesa, Arizona and so they’re very supportive and we appreciate that.”
Just like the snowbirds, Sheila says the tour gives them the opportunity to get away from the cold, Canadian winters.
The Pelletier’s, and their motor home, will be performing their comedic show at 2 pm in Marysburg on Oct. 16.
