We're going to reach waaaay back with a record that's not really Stampede-related, but... well, you know us. We're okay with stretching things a bit (or a lot!).
Guido D'Amico was born in Fernie, but spent most of his life in Nordegg and Eckville. Known as The Italian Cowboy, he had a regular radio show on Red Deer's CKRD, and played throughout central and southern Alberta. Music was a sideline for D'Amico, who worked for the Coca Cola company and later ran a hotel in Eckville. Upon his retirement, he returned to music before he passed away in 2008.
For now, you can get D'Amico's singular single here.
