Kerplunks making big noise
Those Kerplunks of ours are certainly becoming well-known! From Canada.com: Kerplunks making big noise.
The Kerplunks know full well the benefit of living in a close-knit Gulf Island community.
Tina Jones and Dinah D, who lead the Gabriola Island group, barely had in their clutches their first major award — a Western Canadian Music Award for outstanding children’s recording — when they got a phone call from a friend back home last month.
A groundswell has started, they were told, and the island community of 5,000 was raising money in their honour to send the women to their next destination: the Canadian Folk Music Awards in St. John’s, N.L., on Sunday.
That it started so immediately after their win at the WCMAs was a total shock, Jones said. "We had just started driving home [from Edmonton] and people already wanted to send us to Newfoundland. They wanted to book flights and hotels. We got back, and this whole motion had been initiated." [continue].
I see that the Kerplunks now have a website, and they’re all over YouTube, too.
