Jim Cuddy - Orchestrated

The multi-Juno Award winner and Canadian legend returns to Koerner Hall with new orchestral arrangements of his hits.

Jim Cuddy has written many of the songs that have become indelible in the soundtrack of Canadian lives. As a solo artist and as one half of the creative core of Blue Rodeo, he has helped define the sound of Canadian music for more than four decades. Since Blue Rodeo’s formation in 1984, their music has resonated across generations, earning both critical acclaim and a devoted national audience.

Over the course of his career, Jim has received nearly every honour Canada can bestow upon a musician, including 15 Juno Awards. He is a Member of the Order of Canada and, alongside his bandmates, has been inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame and the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame, received the Governor General’s Performing Arts Award, and a star on Canada’s Walk of Fame.
