March 28, 2022 Trev

When you sit down to plan out a milestone party, you don’t start that list with a myriad of strangers, you want to fill that room with your closest friends and neighbours.

Wayback Wed. // Show Thoughts & Shots // The Jim Cuddy Band @ The Cohn – Jan. 17, 2020

January 29, 2020 Trev

On what was one of the coldest winter nights, many sought refuge in the Dal Arts Centre. The frigid Friday evening was to play host to Jim Cuddy, who was making his return to the Rebecca Cohn auditorium stage. Cuddy was winding down his Countrywide tour in support of… Read More

Shots & Thoughts // Blue Rodeo w/The Skydiggers @ The Scotiabank Centre – 02.08.19

February 11, 2019 Trev

There aren't many bands or musical acts that can put together a career than spans a decade, let alone more than 3.

February 28, 2017 Trev

Blue Rodeo is one of those bands that is instantly recognizable the moment you hear Jim Cuddy’s warm comforting voice, or the gruffer rasp of Greg Keelor. There is never the question of who you’re hearing; it’s much like running into an old friend after an extended absence, who is ready to greet you with… Read More

Blue Rodeo w/ The Strumbellas @ Scotiabank Ctr // Feb 24, 2016

February 26, 2016 Trev

For a band such as Blue Rodeo, who have become a fixture in the tapestry of the national music scene, this past Thursday night on the Scotiabank Centre stage was the textbook example of why Cuddy, Keelor and pals have maintained a relevance and longevity that many bands fail to realize. Seeing Blue Rodeo is… Read More

December 18, 2012 Trev

There are a few bands/artists I've been willing to fork out the cash to see multiple times: The Tragically Hip, Matthew Good, Blue Rodeo are the three at the top of the list that I've seen over 5 times each (and the number is probably closer to 10 for each), but (more…) Read More
