Yesteryear is a band dedicated to playing and encouraging the preservation of old time dance music. To this end we stage a yearly Old Time Music Jamboree in Hanna.
The Jamboree features a three day celebration of old time dance music provided by some twelve to fourteen bands from around Alberta, all of whom participate at their own expense. Over the past ten years Yesteryear has raised over $10,000.00 through the Jamborees, which has been donated to local charities including junior sports programs, cultural organizations,seniors groups and the Hanna Childrens Toy Fund.
In 2008 and hopefully in the future, the Jamboree will be held in the Hanna Community Center. Performance dates are July 25 -27.
Yesteryear also provides fine old time dance music for dance clubs, anniversaries and other social events in the area.
