The definition of a rebel is someone who goes against the grain. For close to forty years now, Blue Rodeo has taken the road less traveled – and succeeded far beyond anyone’s expectations. The band emerged in the early 80’s as a countrified rock band in the era of hair metal and glossy pop. Despite sticking out like a sore thumb (or maybe because of it), their single “Try” became omnipresent on radio across Canada and set in motion a three-decade-long career of headlining every club, theatre and arena in Canada. In 1993, when grunge rock was squeezing commercial rock off the radio, they recorded their most acoustic album, 5 Days In July, and scored their biggest hit selling over a half million copies of that one record alone.

The August 6th and August 8th shows feature special guests The Frontiers.
