Blue Rodeo is proud to announce that Jim and Greg will be embarking on a unique promotional tour in support of the band’s new album, The Things We Left Behind. For the first time ever Jim and Greg will perform as a duo in five Canadian cities and, starting Monday morning, October 26, you will be able to buy tickets to these very special events right here through BlueRodeo.com!
As the band will be playing in intimate venues, total available tickets are limited so there will be a maximum of two tickets allowed per order.

Blue Rodeo has also arranged for $5 from every ticket sold to be donated to local charities.
