Over 35 years, the Ottawa-born musician has recorded almost as many albums while earning respect for his charitable and activist work.
"My job is to try and trap the spirit of things in the scratches of pen on paper, in the pulling of notes out of metal," Cockburn said when he was inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame in 2001. He was also made an Officer of the Order of Canada and has been the recipient of honorary degrees in Letters and Music from several North American universities, including Berklee and Toronto's York University. His many other awards have included the Tenco Award for Lifetime Achievement in Italy and 20 gold and platinum awards in Canada.
As a songwriter, Cockburn is revered by fans and musicians alike. His songs have been covered by such diverse artists as Elbow, Jimmy Buffett, Anne Murray, Chet Atkins, k.d. lang, Barenaked Ladies and more.
As a guitarist, he is considered among the world's best. Now, the celebrated musician-activist delivers something new: his first-ever live solo album. 'Slice O Life' showcases a cross-section of Cockburn's finest songs and some of his most dazzling guitar work.
Tickets for this great solo performance will go on sale at noon on Friday, June 18th both at the Box Office and online.
