On Friday night the Best of Buskersfest event took to the stage of the Rotary Performing Arts Centre.

Six great performers showcased their various styles of music and entertained the public. These performers include Maria Zimmerman, Rhea Jones, Braden Pole, Alex Enman, Eric Hess, and Dwight Forseth.

Allan Boss, MC for the event, says that Okotoks is filled with a lot of talent.

"With it being Alberta Culture Days it is a really great opportunity for us to showcase the talent that we have in our community," he says. "The partnership with the RPAC and the Okotoks Arts Council allows us to showcase local talent and entertain our community."

The five performers put on a great show, one that Boss says is the "greatest concert of local talent he's seen".

One of the performers, Eric Hess, performed at The Eagle 100.9 studios over the summer. Check out thie video below:
