Platinum-selling Canadian folk, rockers Great Big Sea continue their U.S. Tour into 2010 with a performance at Tupelo Music Hall in Salisbury on Friday, April 23.
The group marries the traditional sounds of New Foundland influenced by the Irish and English with a modern rock/pop spin. In 2008, the group released Fortune's Favour, a collection of songs "tethered to the band's musical past" with some traditional instrumentation (pennywhistle, banjo) but with "a great big (no pun) rock 'n' roll feel." (- Pittsburgh Tribune Review)
Returning to the studio this winter, Great Big Sea will road test a few of the new songs before putting the finishing touches on their tenth release due later this year. - Free Concert for NASCAR Hall of Fame Grand Opening
