Air Supply to play Fallsview Casino in April

NIAGARA FALLS, ON, Jan. 9, 2012 /CNW/ - The trademark sound of Russell Hitchcock's soaring tenor voice and Graham Russell's simple yet majestic songs bring the unique sound of Air Supply to Fallsview Casino in April.

Air Supply may be best known for their live shows that have held audiences captive around the world and were among the first Western groups to tour China, Taiwan, and countless other countries that had previously not allowed pop music across their borders.

John Schneider and Tom Wopat, also known as Bo and Luke Duke from the classic TV show The Dukes of Hazzard, team up again and will bring their folksy charm to the Avalon theatre for two shows.
