[ROCK] The second in Artpark’s Canadian Hall of Fame set of shows this year features the classic arena rock band Loverboy and guitarist Kim Mitchell, known for his work with the band Max Webster, and for solo singles like “Go For Soda” and “America.” Formed in Calgary, Loverboy briefly broke up in 1989 before reuniting only to break up and reunite once again in 1991. They’ve been active ever since, though suffered a tragic lost when bassist Scott Smith died suddenly in 2000. In 2001, they replaced Smith with bassist Ken “Spider” Sinnaeve, and but the other four members of the band are all original members. Mitchell, on the other hand has, at this point, spent most of his time as a solo artist, releasing almost a dozen albums since Max Webster broke up in 1982. You can catch both acts at Artpark this Tuesday, July 11.
