More about The Sheepdogs

Built on the solid, classic rock foundation of three-part harmonies and dual guitar leads, Canada's Juno Award-winning Sheepdogs blend southern rock, groove-based psychedelia, and bluesy barroom swagger into a modern rock ’n’ roll revival. Emerging in 2004, the band found mainstream success in 2010 with the release of Platinum-selling third LP “Learn & Burn,” and continued to top the Canadian charts with efforts “The Sheepdogs” (2012), “Future Nostalgia” (2015), “Changing Colours” (2018) and “Outta Sight” (2022).

Hailing from the Saskatchewan city of Saskatoon, the band features the talents of Ewan Currie (vocals, guitar), Ryan Gullen (bass), Sam Corbett (drums), Shamus Currie (keyboard/trombone) and Rick Paquette (guitar). From Canadian roadhouses to global music festivals, their on-stage and on-road hours are countless, underscoring their endurance in the music scene. The release of “Future Nostalgia” and “Changing Colours” further enriched their discography, leading up to the 2022 release of the jubilant, hook-filled “Outta Sight,” solidifying their impact in the rock domain.

Most recently, their singles from “Outta Sight” spent a cumulative 90 weeks with at least ONE song in the top 20 at Canadian rock radio. Prior, their hit singles “I Don’t Know” and “Feeling Good” both reached Platinum certification, with “The Way It Is” achieving Gold sales. Additionally, the albums “Learn & Burn” and “The Sheepdogs” both achieved Platinum status. To date, the band has been nominated for 11 JUNO awards, winning four.

More about Amanda Marshall

Singer/songwriter Marshall has released three multi-Platinum albums since 1995. Her eponymous debut is one of only 18 Canadian albums to ever achieve Diamond status in Canada, and to date it has sold more than 6 million copies worldwide. The album spawned seven Top 10 hit singles, including "Let It Rain," "Beautiful Goodbye," "Dark Horse," "Fall From Grace," "Sitting on Top of the World" and "Birmingham."

In 1999, Marshall released “Tuesday's Child,” produced by Don Was (B-52's, Joe Cocker, Bob Dylan, Elton John, Michael McDonald, Iggy Pop, Bonnie Raitt, The Rolling Stones), and featuring collaborations with song writing heavyweights Carole King and Eric Bazilian. This six-times-Platinum album saw Marshall tour the globe in support of Whitney Houston, who, upon hearing it, personally selected Marshall as her support act and invited her to share the stage.

2001's “Everybody's Got A Story” marked a change in style and sound for Marshall, with a more noticeable R&B direction. Produced by the legendary Peter Asher (James Taylor, Linda Ronstadt, Carole King), the album produced three Top 10 hit singles, including "Everybody's Got a Story" and "Sunday Morning After.” It was certified quadruple-Platinum within 10 weeks of its release.
