Thursday December 14th, the Linsmore Tavern (1298 Danforth Ave) is excited to welcome back, the very talented and one of our favourite bands, Cadre! We love hearing great original bands and Cadre is definitely no exception!

Fans of Roots driven, original music with thoughtful lyrics, then this is the band for you! Come support this local talent, the show starts at 8:30pm, there is no cover!

Cadre is five seasoned musicians playing a potent mixture of “original, lyric-driven, uprooted roots” as well as their own take on the music of Bruce Springsteen, The Band, Warren Zevon, Ry Cooder, John Hiatt, Daniel Lanois, Bob Dylan and Robbie McIntosh.

Members of Cadre have won 2nd Grand Prize Overall in The USA Songwriting Competition, played everywhere from The Bluebird Café in Nashville to The Hillside Festival and opened for everyone from John Lee Hooker to The Tragically Hip.

The music of Cadre has (as one music critic noted) “the potential to heal a world suffering from insipid popular music."

Cadre is:

Bill Colgate - lead vocals & harmonica

Cam MacInnes - guitars & mandolin

Joey Gaitanis - guitars & vocals

Jeff Dunk - bass

Rob Greenway (aka brilliant fish) - drums & vocals
