About this event

Concert

GORDIE JOHNSON and BIG SUGAR are thrilled to present a 2-set 'Evening With' performance, showcasing brand new songs in their signature Roots Rock Reggae style along with fan favorites like "Diggin A Hole", "All Hell For A Basement" and “Turn The Lights On”

BIG SUGAR ’s 30th Anniversary “¡EARTHLINGS!” tour: celebrating 3 decades of the album that introduced “Diggin A Hole”, “If I Had My Way” and “Gone for Good” to radio and Much Music fans across Canada. Big Sugar was an iron man test of musical endurance set against a backdrop of personal turmoil and creative pressure in the 1990s. The cultural experiment of Detroit blues meets Detroit Rock City meets Kingston Ghetto recipe became a force that burned like a vacant inner-city house fire. The unlikely success of the Roots Rock Reggae crew in Hugo Boss suits during the height of “grunge” bought the creative freedom to drive on. And drive on they have.

That musical spontaneous combustion continues within every live show. Powered now with passion, laughter and comradery. Big Sugar’s throbbing bass lines, arena rock drums and signature guitar tones bring the songs on “Hemi-Vision” to life reminding us how deeply satisfying a great rock show can be!

CalendarDirections

Gordie Johnson’s power trio featuring bassist Anders Drerup and drummer Root Valach have forged their musical bond during the wildly successful 500 POUNDS tour. Weaving blues and reggae through the wall of guitars and adding vocal harmonies that invoke Jamaica, Motown or an East Coast kitchen party, Big Sugar endures.

Please share the evening of Roots Rock Reggae with Big Sugar!
