Event Description
JUNO-award winning City and Colour (Dallas Green) will be touring Canada in support of his latest release ‘Bring Me Your Love’. The album -- which debuted at #3 on the Top 200 Soundscan chart last week, and was the #1 top-selling album on iTunes -- features Green’s signature delicate vocals and striking musicianship.Green, who until a couple of years ago was better know as the dulcet voice of Alexisonfire, released his debut album ‘Sometimes’ in 2005. A culmination of music that Green had been writing for over a decade, the album achieved Platinum certification in 2006, surpassing any expectations he had. Remaining sincere and affable, Green gave a heartfelt performance at the 2006 MuchMusic Video Awards, where City and Colour won the People’s Choice Favourite Canadian Artist award. In 2007, Green performed live on the JUNOS, taking home the award for Alternative Album of The Year.
In 2006, City and Colour undertook a national tour, performing in intimate settings with only his guitar and a microphone to sold-out audiences. This time around, Green performs in theatres with a full band featuring Scott Remila and Dylan Green (no relation) both of Raising The Fawn.
With ‘Bring Me Your Love’, Green continues to demonstrate his talents as a musician, singer and songwriter moving comfortably and seamlessly between City and Colour and his role anchoring a successful band. The latest album also features appearances by Canadian Music Hall of Famer, Gordon Downie of The Tragically Hip, and friends/label mates Dan Romano and Spencer Burton (Attack in Black).
