Events Description
Canadian rock band Headstones, formed in Kingston, Ontario, began their early music career performing to anyone who would listen. At the time, artists such as Neil Young and Leonard Cohen were gracing the charts on Canadian radio while American musician Stevie Ray Vaughn was reviving the blues south of the border. Headstones decided to take a much different approach.
Carrying a similar attitude to Iggy Pop and Henry Rollins, Hugh Dillon led members Trent Carr and Tim White into becoming a band synonymous with the real Canadian road-worn punk-rock & roll, touring their anti-social behaviour across the country to rough and restless fans. Their storied career has led them to become one of Canadian rock’s most critically acclaimed bands, earning them multiple chart topping hits, music awards and over a million records sold.
Headstones recently released their highly anticipated full-length album Flight Risk, followed by a sold out tour from Toronto to Vancouver, including Buffalo. Flight Risk is pre-apocalyptic rock and roll at its finest, following up their 2019 release PeopleSkills, which garnered two Top 10 radio hits with “Leave It All Behind” and “Horses”.
This is one of the most subversive Headstones rock & roll records to date. Flight Risk is the result of years of relentless work ethic and dedication, a testament to the long-standing relationships within the band and their team. The album features a surprise co-write on the track “Ashes,” between Hugh Dillon and long-time friend and collaborator Taylor Sheridan; one of the most prolific, premier storytellers of his time, and architect of hit series’ Yellowstone and 1883, and Oscar nominated films “Sicario” and “Hell or High Water.” Taylor and Hugh co-created Mayor of Kingstown, which is now entering its third season.
