Played original new release album songs that were fantastic! Engaged the crowd with covers and his high energy performance… as always! Nice touch was encore song solo with just his electric guitar and his bro by his side… sitting, leaning against stage …had the crowd singing with him!! Wonderful evening of music against the beautiful backdrop!

Andre Pettipas and The Giants Biography
Andre Pettipas and The Giants are a rarity - an act who absolutely refuse to let anything take the fun out of their creative process; performances on record or on stage, and with absolutely no fear of stopping outside the box to get their message across.
With the release of their new studio album, ‘Under Control’; recorded in summer 2022 at The Tragically Hip’s studio, The Bathouse, the band plans to build on the success of their previous release, 'No Fools No Fun.’ That album was nominated for Rock Album of the Year at ECMA and Nova Scotia Music Week. It also garnered the band a top 30 Billboard Active Rock charting song (Sympathy Card), a spot on the NHL Stanley Cup Finals (Overtime) and also lead the band to recording a live album at legendary El Mocambo album in Toronto during their release tour.
Summer ’23 started out full steam ahead with another placement on the NHL Stanley Cup Finals (Sin City) before the band took the release on the road for two Cross Canada tours which included showcases at Canadian Music Week (Toronto) and COCA Student Summit (Vancouver.) They also produced their first festival called, “Giantstock” in Merigomish, Nova Scotia on Labour Day weekend. The three day festival included artists such as Morgan Toney, Loviet, Slowcoaster, Kiju Boyz and more.
Their latest release, “Under Control” was recently nominated for East Coast Music Association’s “Rock Recording Of The Year.”
