The Cruzeros

The Cruzeros are a Canadian country rock band from Kelowna, British Columbia. The band was formed by Mathers and Tulman in 1985 under the name Sea Cruise. They played top forty cover tunes on the pub and nightclub circuit in Canada's BC Interior. The band went on a tour of Mexico and subsequently changed the name to The Cruzeros. Their self-titled album was released to radio in 1996 and its success earned them a 1997 JUNO nomination for Country Group of the Year. During the next 13 years they launched three albums independently, which spawned a total of 20 top forty hits on the national country charts, eight videos on CMT and a number of award citations, including a Canadian Indy for Country Album of the Year, CCMA Special Instrumentalist of the Year three years running and BCCMA Group, Songwriter and Album of the Year awards. The band performed about 150 concerts per year across Canada, with forays into the United States, Mexico and Europe. The Cruzeros retired from active touring in 2008, leaving behind a legacy as one of BC Interior's most successful country rock acts and a testament to the vibrant music scene that thrived in the Okanagan Valley throughout the 1990s and 2000s.
