Honeymoon Suite can’t get enough of the Penticton Peach Festival, and they’re coming back for another go in 2024.
The band will headline the Okanagan Lake Park stage on Aug. 10.
Opening for Honeymoon Suite is multi-Juno nominee band the Odds.
“We are thrilled to welcome Honeymoon Suite and the Odds to the Penticton Peach Festival. These bands are not just performers; they are storytellers, it’s an honour to host such legendary acts at our festival,” said Peach Festival entertainment director, Alysha Forrest.
Honeymoon Suite recorded 17 hit singles in Canada and several of those tunes also charted in the U.S. Among their biggest hits are: Love Changes Everything; New Girl Now; Burning In Love; and Feel It Again.
Honeymoon Suite also made its mark in Hollywood over the years. Their hit, Bad Attitude, was used in Miami Vice; What Does It Take was featured in the John Cusack movie “One Crazy Summer;” and the band wrote and performed the theme song for Mel Gibson’s “Lethal Weapon.”
