RML Peak Performer Series: Andrew Staygold

RML Profile: https://rockymountainlive.ca/andrewstaygold

Andrew has been a huge part of the Bow Valley music scene for well over a decade. A solo musician, the sound tech at Banff's Biggest Stage, host of Melissa's Missteak Karaoke Night which is one of the longest running weekly events in Banff, lead singer of a new country band, line dance instructor... Andrew has a LOT going on!

How did it all start? In our interview we go through the Andrew Staygold in Banff origin story, some of his favourite memories from those karaoke and sound tech nights, the new local band Five N' Dime, why he loves performing live music, being one of the busiest solo acts in the region and much more!


Thank you to Melissa's Missteak for hosting us backstage behind Banff's Biggest Stage with a wall full of history with signatures and stickers from performers of year's past. It was a pleasure to conduct this interview with Andrew in that space.
