Canada's Best Rock Band Since 1969!
April Wine is a Canadian rock band formed in 1969. According to the band, they chose the name 'April Wine' simply because members thought the two words sounded good together.[1] The band would go on to release over 20 albums and forge a live performance reputation that sees them still drawing devoted crowds across Canada and around the world 38 years after taking their first steps into the hard rock spotlight.

- Ready, set....Lift Off!
- "Rock band April Wine took to the stage Thursday evening, along with special guest Platinum Blonde. The Lost Boyz and The Flipside also entertained the crowd."
- Concerts: April Wine at Tecumseh Park, July 9, 2011
- "April Wine started off with Say Hello from their 1979 album, Harder%u2026Faster. This was followed by their take on the Bernie Taupin / Elton John song, Bad Side Of The Moon, which they first made their own on 1972's On Record. In live performance the song outshines their studio recorded version, but that is usually the case with most bands that are worth seeing. They slowed things down a bit with the ballad Just Between You And Me, one of their hits off The Nature Of The Beast."
“April Wine has been a band for a whopping 42 years!”

I'm Still Hanging on to Those Tapes!
Do you still have your old, worn-out cassette tapes from the eighties? I do! As soon as I get the cassette tape player repaired on my old stereo, circa 1980, I am going to play every one of those babies and stroll down memory lane. I also have a huge collection of my grandmother's old country and western 8-tracks and reel-to-reels. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with these little heirloom treasures. I might put my grandmother's old tapes on eBay, but in the meantime I will use them as photography props for some art projects I'm working on. I have a couple of well-worn April Wine cassette tapes, but I would love to have every one of their albums on CD or MP3, because I just can't get enough April Wine!

Don't Toss Those Vinyls!
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Before you donate those old record albums and 45's (aka "vinyls") to your local thrift store or turn your scratched-up albums into a giant ashtray or other piece of art, it would be a good idea to do a little research in one of the pricing guides shown below to determine the value of your old records. You could be very surprised to find out how much your record collection is worth, so it might be time to dust off those records, list them on eBay and rake in some cash!

- I hadn't heard of them until now, it's good when a band has been around for so long, the music matures. Nicely done.

- I listened to the previews for their songs. I can't believe I've never heard of them before! Also, seeing the 8 tracks made me laugh out loud! We used to listen to 8 tracks and run around my parents' basement when we were growing up. Oh are we old!!!
