Blue Rodeo

In the 39 years since forming in Toronto and quickly electrifying the then-supercool Queen West scene — before dominating the soft-seaters and arenas of the nation — Blue Rodeo has sold more than four million albums, received countless JUNO Award wins and nominations, played a gazillion shows, been inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame, received a star on Canada’s Walk of Fame, been named to the Order of Canada and been honoured with the Governor General’s Performing Arts Award.
