Not Fade Away: Stories and Songs of Buddy Holly

The Historic Trust is pleased to welcome back music historian, Joel Underwood, to present this brand-new show.

Buddy Holly emerged from Lubbock, Texas in the mid-1950’s and blazed across the rock-and-roll sky like a comet. Before his untimely death in an Iowa plane crash at the age of 22, he and his band The Crickets created a series of pop music masterpieces and the template for what a rock band looks and sounds like, influencing later artists such as Bob Dylan, Elton John, and The Beatles. In an evening that combines humor, toe-tapping, and tears, musician and historian Joel Underwood returns to Vancouver to tell the story of Holly’s humble beginnings, two years as a rock icon, and sudden, tragic death in 1959. Who was “Peggy Sue”? What movie inspired “That’ll Be The Day”? It’s an evening at the theater that leaves audiences saying, “Oh Boy”!
