In The Future...Tom Petty, Xavier Rudd, That 1 Guy, Lullabye Arkestra, And More!

Anyone who missed Tom Petty at the MTS Centre last year - or was it the year before? Time flies like an arrow - get another chance to see him (in non-animated form): the rock icon has booked a return date for June 19th. Joe Cocker kicks off the evening.

That 1 Guy continues to love Winnipeg, swooping into town for a show at the West End on May 2nd. Cheers to that Magic Pipe.

Local music-makin' favs Keith and Renee are there on May 8th.

Courtney Wing performs at the West End on April 6th w/ Royal Canoe.

Oh My Darling’s CD Release is there on April 16th w/ The Good Lovelies.

Lullabye Arkestra rock the party at the Albert on April 9th.

Xavier Rudd drops by the Burton Cummings Theatre for back-to-back nights starting May 25th, promoting his imminent new record, Koonyum Sun (April 19th).

The Balconies open for Ghostkeeper’s March 27th gig at the Lo Pub; the next day they play a free in-store set at Music Trader.

And finally, to borrow from the always-quotable Otto, “You Know Those Guitars That Are Like Double Guitars?”* Well, Gordie Johnson of Big Sugar fame sure does. His blues-rock band GRADY will be at the Pyramid on April 14th.

*Who Shot Mr. Burns? Part 1.
