Rock Night 11x17 Poster.jpg

A Canadian rock legend is coming.

BIG SUGAR has been a staple on the Canadian airwaves and highways since the 90sand their live show? Absolutely relentless. 

Gordie Johnson, one of the most celebrated guitarists this country has ever produced, and his power trio featuring bassist Anders Drerup and drummer Root Valach weave their ROOTS ROCK REGGAE through a wall of guitars, adding vocal harmonies that evoke Jamaica, Motown or an East Coast kitchen party. 

Jack White called 500 Pounds “the best blues album to ever come out of Canada.” Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top said “they’re bad, they’re nationwide”. Joe Satriani says “Gordie makes a kind of magic that nobody else can touch”. When guitarists’ guitarists talk like THAT about you, you know you’re the real deal.

Hits like “Diggin A Hole”, “If I Had My Way”, “Turn the Lights On” and “Roads Ahead” –plus deep cuts and rarities from one of the most unique catalogues in Canadian music. This isn’t just a concert. It’s the full on BIG SUGAR experience.
