Folk-rock band charts new course
Tucson, Arizona | Published: 10.02.2008
Canadian folk rockers Great Big Sea are making the trip from Newfoundland to Tucson for a performance Tuesday night at the Rialto Theatre.
The band returns to town with its new album, "Fortune's Favour" and a new direction, steering away from the traditional material and more into the pop realm, at least for this release.
That doesn't mean we won't be hearing some classic St. John's favorites, including tracks from "The Hard and the Easy," "Something Beautiful" and other releases.
The show begins at 8 p.m., and tickets are $23 in advance and $26 the day of the show through the Rialto box office, 740-1000.
