Tom Cochrane and Red Rider White Hot in Kingston | Grand Theatre
I caught Tom Cochrane and Red Rider March 23rd at the Grand Theatre in Kingston on their Mad Mad World Tour and believe it or not, it was the first time for me. Red rider is one of those bands that were a pretty big part of the soundtrack of my teen years. Songs like “Big League”,”Life is a Highway” and “Lunatic Fringe” were staples in most Canadian record Collections. Tom is on par with the best of Canadian songwriters, observing and writing about the very things that make us all Canadian.
Jim Cuddy Rolls Through Kingston
March 28th, Jim Cuddy brought his band to the Grand Theatre in Kingston on their Constellation Tour. We know Jim as one of the founding members and creative forces behind Blue Rodeo, but he doesn’t sit idle between Blue Rodeo projects. Jim’s style of storytelling in his music makes him one of Canada’s best known songwriters. Constellation is Jim’s fourth solo album and many of the songs were introduced early in the concert. The title track is about a friend of Jim’s who passed away recently. It deals with some of the more sobering aspects of life, such as our own mortality.
