Edmonton based country/ pop band Hey Romeo made a long awaited return to Lethbridge to play Casino Lethbridge, Nov. 7.
They had a pretty sparse audience, who sat enraptured, though they would cheer some of their bigger hits.
But it was when they played brand new material, some of them of which they had never played before, was when they got people dancing.
Their big hit, ‘ I Got 
Nothing,’ sung by guitarist Darren Gusnowsky, was a highlight of the set.
Calgary based lead vocalist Stacie Roper showed off her magnificent voice, though it was drowned out by the guitar.
Award winning keyboardist Rob Shapiro showed off his chops, but the keyboards fit perfectly in with all of the other instruments.
They tore into a laid back medley of Johnny Cash’s ‘Folsom Prison Blues,’ and ‘Jackson’ which got the audience warmed up for their first set.
‘I Got This’ got a couple couples dancing and a song, I think was called ‘Have a Night’ was a highlight which they had never played before.
They also added a few choice covers of the Band's ’Up on Cripple Creek’ and a more country version of John Cougar Mellencamp's ’80s hit ‘Small Town.’
They ended their first set with another highlight and another brand new song called ‘Two Hearts.’
