Peter Foldy / Copperpenny

Sunday, August 3, 1975: CHUM's successful summer concerts at Nathan Phillips Square continued this past Sunday with Peter Foldy and Copperpenny sharing the bill. The free concerts have attracted as many as 20,000 at Toronto's City Hall. Peter Foldy's singing and songwriting style can be heard on his latest single "Hollywood" f/s "Paris Bound." He assembled a concert band especially for the engagement. Foldy will soon be flying to Los Angeles to record continue more tracks for his first album on Capitol Records.
Copperpenny's follow-up single to "Disco Queen", and just released is "Good Time Sally." The group has undergone personnel changes, which leaves founder-member Rich Wamil with three new members. They are Jim Minas on drums, Mark Stephen Gendel on guitar, and bassist Bill Mair. The group's last tour in May with Blue Swede, hit nineteen cities including a stop at Ontario Place where the two attracted more than 10,000 fans.
