WINGHAM — Canadian legend Jim Cuddy will perform a treasure trove of songs that have become indelible in the soundtrack of our Canadian lives, stopping for two shows at the Wingham Town Hall Theatre on Dec. 8 and Dec. 9. Opening the evenings is emerging artist Basil Bauer.
Over the course of five solo albums and 15 studio recordings with Blue Rodeo, Cuddy has established himself as one of Canada’s most respected artists. Among his accolades, Jim has received 15 JUNO Awards, The Order of Canada and, along with bandmates Blue Rodeo, has been inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame, received the Governor General Performing Arts Award and a Star on the Walk of Fame.
Cuddy’s latest release, Countrywide Soul, celebrates music and the musicians who join him on stage each night.
To achieve his goal on Countrywide Soul, Cuddy re-worked a number of songs previously recorded for his solo career and with Blue Rodeo. To round out the record, he wrote two new songs and included a couple of favourite cover songs.
