Keith Urban pulled the Ripcord and landed safely in Toronto at the Molson Canadian Amphitheatre Friday night. What a great show! Playing the first of a two night stand at the open air venue, and the third in the Live Nation Country Mega Ticket Series, Urban shows why he is amongst the most popular of the country scene with his polished stage performance and great music.
Luke Bryan – Kill The Lights Tour
Rain makes corn. Corn makes whiskey. Whiskey makes Toronto feel a little frisky!
Well, wasn’t that a night! Luke Bryan returned to Ontario for the first of two sold out shows at the Molson Canadian Amphitheatre Friday night and he delivered in spades. The Kill The Lights Tour absolutely did kill it.
Sound of Music Festival – Wrap Up
Yesterday was the final day to catch some free music in Burlington, Ontario as the 37th annual Sound of Music Festival wrapped up with Canadian rock legends Loverboy. My family and I have been attending SOMF for the past 5 years and LOVE bringing the family down to enjoy the weekend. As a family we have made it a point to try to make it every year. This year however I was flying solo and had a chance to spend a couple of days at the event and I have to say I couldn’t be happier with the time spent. This is one of those festivals that is so diverse in music it has something for everyone. With so many fantastic artists on the stage this weekend here is what we were able to cover.
Eli Young Band “Turn It On” in Toronto
Last night we were invited to take in the BIG Kick Off of the KX Country Concert Series at the Phoenix Concert Theater in Toronto. Bright Lights Big Country is the brain child of the amazing folks at KX Country Radio. They wanted to bring some great acts to smaller venues this summer and hopefully this is the first of a handful of shows this summer and they couldn’t have had a better line up to kick it all off with. With Eli Young Band headlining the show and with such amazing support from Burlington’s own Tebey along with amazing up and coming act Dani Strong this night was full of fantastic music.
Corey’s Summer Picks…
So, the summer concert schedule is upon us and let me tell you if you LOVE live music you are going to really enjoy this summer. I have put together a list of MUST SEE but heck, I only say they are must see because well I think they are pretty damn talented individuals as well. I know we can’t hit them all. But we know I am going to do my best 😉
