Saskatchewan’s The Sheepdogs blend southern boogie rock, groove-based psychedelia, and bluesy barroom swagger to bring out a modern rock & roll revival!

The band members include Ewan Currie (vocals+ guitar), Jimmy Bowskill (guitar), Ryan Gullen (bass), and Sam Corbett (drums), plus Ewan’s brother Shamus on brass and keyboards. The Sheepdogs consider their style to be somewhere between the riff heavy bombast of Led Zeppelin and the melodies and harmonies of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young. The Sheepdogs have six albums out to date with the seventh one ‘Changing Colours’ due out on Friday, February 2nd, 2018.

The three-time JUNO award winning band has toured worldwide and earned platinum certification for their 2010 LP ‘Learn and Burn’, and their self-titled LP produced by Patrick Carney (The Black Keys) debuted at #1 on the Top 200 SoundScan Chart, garnering a gold record for the band. They appeared on the cover of Rolling Stone in August 2011 after winning the magazine’s “Choose the Cover” competition.
