Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton recorded the hit Islands in the Stream.
In addition to that classic, they scored numerous hits as solo artists, selling over 200 million records worldwide.
Rogers’ hits include The Gambler, Coward of the County, Lucille, Lady and more. Parton is one of the most successful female artists in music history, with hits like 9 to 5, Here You Come Again, Jolene and Coat of Many Colours.
On Dec. 3 at 8pm, their music will be celebrated in a tribute show taking place at Harriston Town Hall Theatre. Entertainer Marty Edwards will bring his show Kenny and Dolly: Together Again to town. Direct from Las Vegas, Edwards has also appeared at major resort hotels in Atlantic City in addition to shows in Australia, Asia, The UK, Ireland, the U.S. and Canada.
