THE ACOUSTICAL SOUNDS OF GORDIE JOHNSON ONE MAN BIG SUGAR SHOW Mr. Johnson brings his massive, well known and highly influential song book to life in this oneman acoustic performance drenched in the blues and folk music with his signature reggae overtones that inspired his Big Sugar catalog. Singing his modern classics “Turn The Lights” and “Ride Like Hell”, the Newfoundland anthem “All Hell For A Basement” and even classics he’s written for other artists like “Highway Of Heroes”. Gordie Johnson has entertained a loyal army of fans online with anecdotes from his storied career: encounters with The Rolling Stones, ZZ Top, RUSH, heroes and villains. Tales of triumph and disaster told with his impeccable comedic timing, the One Man Big Sugar Show now brings all of this live to the stage. Big Sugar’s highly successful album and sold-out album tour for “Yardstyle The Acoustical Sounds of Big Sugar” had a full stage of band members. “This will be a far more intimate presentation.” says GJ, “Come on in my kitchen and I’ll cook us up a mess of tunes.” We can see the ingredients as they go in the pot… and cook he does. Acoustic Blues served up by one of Canada’s all time great guitarists, GJ’s sardonic wit also makes for an evening of irreverent laughter and a truly memorable experience. The Acoustical Sounds of Gordie Johnson is a ONE MAN BIG SUGAR SHOW

Artist bio
The legendary Big Sugar celebrate their ground-breaking "500 Pounds" deluxe vinyl release from Third Man Records with a 2 set theatrical presentation that spans their storied career from Hugo Boss suit days to their more recent Roots Rock Reggae vibes. Gordie Johnson's power trio breathe life into their early blues and jazz-tinged songbook that has influenced generations of guitarists. "The theatre setting gives us the opportunity to explore a much wider range of styles while still presenting a Big Sugar rock and roll show!"

Since the 90's Big Sugar have been a staple on the airwaves and highways with a unique combination of Jamaican rhythms, blues tonality and heavy rock aggression. Songs like 'Diggin A Hole', 'If I Had My Way', 'Turn The Lights On' and 'Roads Ahead' with their roots/rock/reggae style featuring Gordie Johnson’s signature guitar playing have built a loyal following, earning Big Sugar a Road Gold Award as they continue to sell out concerts across North America.
