Listen "Colin James: "Open Road" to Halifax"
Episode Synopsis
Colin James is glad to be back touring after the pandemic shut down live performances for many over the past two years. His 20th album, "Open Road" is a fitting title as his tour makes a stop in Halifax at the Rebecca Cohn Auditorium on July 7th, 2022. The Saskatchewan-born artist has come a long way from failing music class in high school to playing in a bluegrass band to sharing a stage with Stevie Ray Vaughan and most recently Buddy Guy. In this conversation, James shares some of the challenges and successes of the journey he's been on since his first album was released in 1988. He touches on some of the changes in music industry from physical products to the world of streaming audio and the return to performing live in front of an audience again.
