Award-winning, Canadian Bluesman STEVE STRONGMAN
Returns to the MCC this Thursday!
Nominated for best Blues Album of the year for “No Time Like Now” at this year’s Juno Awards, Steve Strongman is constantly pushing himself in new directions. His talent is huge and impossible to miss, and it’s matched by his staggering musical ambition — as guitar-slinger, songwriter or vocalist.
On March 29th Steve will perform an acoustic concert with special guest Lance Anderson at the MCC. There will also be a special performance by Shane Cloutier who will kick off the evening for Steve.
Strongman’s impressive resume includes stints opening for guitar legends such as Johnny Winter, B.B. King and Buddy Guy. The performer’s breakthrough 2012 release A Natural Fact was hailed as a standout, earning Maple Blues Awards for Recording, Songwriter, and Guitarist Of The Year as well as a 2013 Juno Award for Blues Recording Of The Year. In 2014 he was thrice-nominated at the Maple Blues Awards (Guitar Player, Electric Act, and Entertainer of the Year) and in 2015 received a second Juno nod for Blues Album of the Year (for Let Me Prove It To You).
