SAM ROBERTS BAND

Juno Award winning Sam Roberts Band will bring their Lo-Fantasy Tour to Canada this November.   The Montreal rockers released their fifth studio album Lo-Fantasy in February 2014, produced by Youth (a.k.a. Martin Glover), who’s production credits range from The Verve's 'Urban Hymns' to Crowded House, as well as stints performing with Paul McCartney, ambient-techno kings The Orb, and post-punk outfit Killing Joke.  Lo-Fantasy was released to great acclaim.  Lead single “We’re All In This Together” reached the top of both Canadian rock radio charts, followed by Top 10 hits “Human Heat” and “Shapeshifters”.

A combination of sleep deprivation, excitement, uncertainty, and adrenaline pushed the band outside any notion of comfort when creating the album, generating their most dynamic and inventive arrangements to date. It also helped capture the fiery spirit and urgency that have made their live shows so legendary, earning them spots performing everywhere from Letterman and Conan to Bonnaroo, ACL, Lollapalooza and Bumbershoot, and alongside heroes like the Rolling Stones and AC/DC.
