Granville Street, Vancouver is one of the best streets for Live music and the Vogue Theatre is the perfect venue for this intimate Jim Cuddy Constellation Tour concert. This historic building opened in 1941 as a moviehouse and a place for Vancouver’s performing arts. Now one of the greatest places for concerts.
This 33 stop cross-Canada tour showcases Jim’s 4th solo album released January 2018 which was recorded at Blue Rodeo’s Woodshed Studio in Toronto. A tour with close friends and family joining him on stage.

The theatre was packed with fans, young and old, when Barney Bentall came out onto the stage to open the night. After a 5 year hiatus, Barney, a Juno Award winner, sang some songs from his new album The Drifter and The Preacher, his 10th studio album and a few of his older popular songs. It was great to see local musician Kirby Barber playing along as well as Barney’s son, Dustin, who came out and sang along with him.

A huge applause came from the crowd when Jim Cuddy started to play. He explained that although this tour was about his new album, an 11 track album, he would only by playing half of it, well half plus one. The title song, “Constellation”. A song written about his close friend who was dying and how to move on without him. A very emotional and beautiful song.
