Billy Bryans Parachute Club Rise Up (R.I.P. 003)


I saw my first rock concert in 1983 with my parents. The band was Canadian outfit The Parachute Club. It was a free show up in Ottawa on parliament hill or something like that. Yes, Rise Up. The band would go on to release three albums and many great singles before breaking up in 1989. Its a sad day as percussionist, songwriter, music producer and founding member Billy Bryans died today of cancer at the age of 62. Billy, we will continue to Rise Up.
