About this concert
Hailed by the press as a “gifted musician” with “the soul of a poet” and “a voice of tremendous power and whimsy”, Toronto-based Rob Szabo is a tireless solitary touring troubadour, an acclaimed songwriter and in- demand record producer. His recordings get raves by press, both in Canada and the U.S., where he’s been called “Cobain-worthy” and “like prime Costello”. Canada’s CBC Radio 1 & 2 champion his music on shows nationwide. www.robszabo.com Hamilton's scorching guitar ace Steve Strongman raises the bar with his 2013 Juno-winning album "A Natural Fact" and his 2014 Juno-Nominated album "Let Me Prove It To You".. Long gone are the days he would sneak up the fire escape at Kitchener's renowned blues club Pop the Gator, but in a return to his roots Strongman has sewn a seamless blend of old school and contemporary sensibilities that ultimately heralds the arrival of one of the blues world's most exciting newcomers. www.stevestrongman.com Steve & Rob will play from their solo repertoires as well as former bands + a few surprises for this 13th annual show!!

Steve Strongman Biography
Award-winning Canadian bluesman Steve Strongman is a versatile talent, and a restless one. By constantly pushing himself in new directions, he has kept himself vital. His talent is huge and impossible to miss, and it’s matched by his staggering musical ambition — as guitar-slinger, songwriter or vocalist. The same structures and progressions that animate blues and roots music can also choke the air out of it, smothering it in caricature and cliché. But Strongman is a subtle shape-shifter who manages to slip that trap without betraying the music he loves. Throughout, he never sounds an inauthentic note or loses touch with the essence of the blues.
Strongman’s impressive resume includes stints opening for guitar legends such as Johnny Winter, B.B. King and Buddy Guy. The performer’s breakthrough 2012 release A Natural Fact was hailed as a standout, earning Maple Blues Awards for Recording, Songwriter, and Guitarist Of The Year as well as a 2013 Juno Award for Blues Recording Of The Year. In 2014 he was thrice-nominated at the Maple Blues Awards (Guitar Player, Electric Act, and Entertainer of the Year) and in 2015 received a second Juno nod for Blues Album of the Year (for Let Me Prove It To You).
