ABOUT
Formed in 1984 by high school friends Jim Cuddy and Greg Keelor, Blue Rodeo emerged as a countrified rock band in an era dominated by hair metal and glossy pop. Their journey began after spending three years in New York, where the pair struggled to attract label interest. Returning to Toronto, Jim and Greg were inspired by the changed and vibrant city and the wealth of talent and musical styles in venues all over town. The pair quickly made the decision to ignore trends and set out to create something true to themselves, in fact, to create a “psychedelic country band” and Blue Rodeo was born.
Joined by bandmates Bazil Donovan, Cleave Anderson, and Bobby Wiseman, Blue Rodeo quickly gained momentum, filling venues and ascending to the top of the charts. Their commitment to authenticity and distinctive sound became the cornerstone of Blue Rodeo’s enduring success in the Canadian music scene.
Now celebrating their 40th anniversary, Blue Rodeo has proven to be one of Canada’s most enduring and important bands. They have received 31 JUNO Award nominations (winning 12) and 17 CCMA Awards (winning two). Since their formation in Toronto when they electrified the supercool Queen West scene — before dominating the soft-seaters and arenas of the nation — Blue Rodeo has sold more than four million albums, played thousands of shows, been inducted into both the Canadian Music Hall of Fame and the Canadian Songwriters 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.
