Throughout their years together the band toured internationally with Gordon across Canada and the United States and to cities in the United Kingdom, Europe, Australia and more.
Join the band in concert for an authentic experience of the Songs of Gordon Lightfoot. These are the original musicians that recorded in the studio and performed on stage with Gordon for decades, not a tribute or clone band.
The band includes veterans Rick Haynes on bass, Barry Keane on drums and percussion, Mike Heffernan on keyboards and Carter Lancaster on the lead guitars. The Lightfoot Band is proud to introduce Andy Mauck as their lead vocalist. Playing a Martin D18 6 string guitar and Gibson B45 12 string guitar, just like Gord did, Andy has been a student of Gord’s craft as well as his personal friend for almost 50 years.
Together, they are now keeping Gordon’s music alive – playing the hits, such as Sundown, Carefree Highway, the Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald, Beautiful, Early Morning Rain, as well as some deeper cuts, not heard live for decades.
Band members will relate some history and stories of the road, and will be available to meet the audience after shows in the lobby area.
As the band end the performance, they will take a moment to reflect. First, they’ll perform Beautiful and Early Morning Rain, songs that capture the essence of serenity and reflection. And, as this year marks the 50th anniversary of the tragic sinking, they will close with The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. It’s a song that not only honors the lives lost but also stands as a powerful reminder of the forces of nature and the enduring human spirit.
Don’t miss this opportunity to continue enjoying the Songs of Gordon Lightfoot and more with The Lightfoot Band.
