| (Hamilton, ON) – Spectra by Comcast Spectacor, providers of Venues Management for FirstOntario Concert Hall (formerly Hamilton Place) are pleased to announce that Bruce Cockburn, presented by Goldenvoice, is embarking on a North American tour and will be stopping at FirstOntario Concert Hall on Saturday September 30th.
Tickets for Bruce Cockburn go on-sale Friday, April 7th at 10am. Tickets can be purchased online at www.CoreEntertainment.ca, by telephone at 1 855 872 5000 or in person at the Dan Lawrie Insurance Box Office at FirstOntario Centre.
Bruce Cockburn’s remarkable journey has seen him embrace folk, jazz, rock, and worldbeat styles while travelling to such far-flung places as Guatemala, Mali, Mozambique, and Nepal, and writing memorable songs about his ever-expanding world of wonders. “My job,” he explains, “is to try and trap the spirit of things in the scratches of pen on paper and the pulling of notes out of metal.”
That scratching and pulling has earned Cockburn high praise as an exceptional songwriter and a revered guitarist. His songs of romance, protest, and spiritual discovery are among the best to have emerged from Canada over the last 40 years. His guitar playing, both acoustic and electric, has placed him in the company of the world’s top instrumentalists. And he remains deeply respected for his activism on issues from native rights and land mines to the environment and Third World debt, working for organizations such as Oxfam, Amnesty International, Doctors Without Borders, and Friends of the Earth.
