Grab your whistle and put on your wellies, Canada’s rock n’ roll sons and purveyors of good-time musical vibes, The Sheepdogs, have just announced they are heading across the Atlantic for a run of 21 shows across Europe this October and November. The tour will include stops in the UK, Spain, Germany, France, Scandinavia, and the Netherlands. Hailing from the small prairie city of Saskatoon, The Sheepdogs are one of Canada’s most successful bands amassing a legion of fans worldwide with their rich harmonies, rounded guitar tones and classic rock influenced sound and following their much talked about performances last year alongside American roots rock band Larkin Poe, they are returning to capitalise on the love and enthusiasm they encountered. This upcoming tour marks their first headline dates in Europe since 2022 , which featured a blistering set at the Red Rooster Festival witnessed by this reporter, signals a highly anticipated return for the band to playing full headline sets.
“We made so many new friends and had such a blast last year traveling around with Larkin Poe,” said Bassist Ryan Gullen. “But playing for 45 minutes was just not enough. We can’t wait to get back and really jam it out for folks, and bring some new tunes along with us as well.”
Renowned for their electric and dynamic live performances, sing-along choruses, and good-time vibes that put a smile on your face, The Sheepdogs deliver a potent blend of soaring guitars, five-part harmonies, and vintage swagger. They have continued to rise and bubble up in both Rock and Americana circles around the world, having played over 200 shows since 2021 – with over 70 performances this year alone across Canada, the US, and now, Europe.
The tour dates will feature new music, set to be released in the coming months as a follow-up to their internationally acclaimed 2022 album, “Outta Sight”. Fans can expect a mix of their classic hits and new tracks. Tickets are on sale now. For more information and to purchase tickets, visit http://www.thesheepdogs.com
