Last night live music returned to Ottawa’s Canadian Tire Centre for the first time in over 2 years and it was nothing short of spectacular.

It’s been just over two years since the pandemic silenced live music in Ottawa venues and slowly this week fans trickled back as the curtain lifted on the first country tour to pass through the nation’s capital with Meghan Patrick’s Wild as Me Tour featuring Kris Barclay

Billy Talent and Rise Against rocked TD place last night in Ottawa after a long-awaited return to live music. The venue was packed, and the crowd was in full rock party mode. This is some of the first live music we have had in a while so needless to say it was going to be a crazy night. The people were lined up for what seemed like forever and parking was absolutely nuts so much so I had to park what seemed like miles away!

Nomadic indie-folk musician, Tennyson King, has been travelling across Canada tour in support of his recently released album, Good Company.

“I am so excited to get back on the road and start sharing my music to people in real life,” says Tennyson about his cross Canada tour. “Along with the excitement there are some nerves too as I’ve been grounded for almost two years, so it will take a little adjustment to be moving from town to town playing shows again. I think bringing music back into the world is important not only for me but for everyone right now. We all need to start feeling the sense of community, joy and human connection that has been missing.”

On March 9, 2020, Pearl Jam was the first major artist to pull the plug and postpone their Spring 2020 tour dates due to COVID-19 concerns. A few weeks later, the band’s new album Gigaton was released to critical acclaim but empty venues. Nearly two years later, Pearl Jam can finally hit the road with their 2020 North American tour dates officially rescheduled for May and September 2022. 

During the start of the pandemic, Josh Ramsay needed something to do while in isolation. He indulged himself by writing songs in as many different genres as possible. Josh explains, “my goal was to try and do as many genres as possible, so it feels kind of like a variety show. I see it as my ‘calling card’ – not just as a songwriter, but as a producer and arranger.”

It’s Showtime, Ontario!
