DAVID ROTUNDO
If you’ve been around the Canadian Blues scene for the past 30 years harmonica ace, singer/songwriter & guitarist David Rotundo needs no introduction. Originally from Toronto he became obsessed with the Blues after seeing James Cotton play in 1991. He took up the harmonica and traveled to Chicago, Memphis, Clarksdale, New Orleans and Austin learning how to play from the masters before returning to T.O. where he performed with several different groups, including a stint with Jack De Keyser, before starting his own band in 2001. David now plays all over the world wintering in Mexico and touring in eastern Europe in the summers where he has a huge following. And no wonder – he delivers one of the most entertaining, high energy shows you will see anywhere. His most recent album (his 5th) called “So Much Trouble” was produced by the legendary Lee Oskar and has garnered international accolades and air play. Over the years David has been one of the most popular performers at Blues on the Rideau/Blues at The Cove – this will be his 10th visit.
This will be a special tour for David as he will be celebrating the 25th Anniversary of his record “Blowing for Broke”! He’ll have his full band with him for a Dinner & Show on Friday for that!
He will will also be doing a Solo + intimate evening of Bob Dylan’s Music on Thursday from 5-8pm on The Cove Patio, $20 suggested music cover. David’s shows have always Sold Out so reserve early if you want to be there!
