Massey Hall opened its door for the first time on this date in 1894! 130 years of memories… including this one from the great Jim Cuddy who talks about the night of the Three Gords.
On the “Pop Life” encore show for January 3, 2021, 8:30 pm on CTV NewsChannel, midnight on CTV, Jim Cuddy of Blue Rodeo visits virtually to talk about making new music during the pandemic and what it is like for a touring musician to stay close to home. Then the panel, Cuddy, singer/songwriter Alexis Lynn and Jackie Dean, the co- Interim CEO/ Chief Operating Officer of Music Canada discuss the future of live music.
Jim Cuddy on life as a musician during the pandemic: “We have a little place north of the city and so my wife and I, to varying degrees, moved up there. And, you know, it seemed to everybody that it was going to be pretty short term. But then when it was obvious it was going to last a long time, we settled in. I have not stayed in one place that long for 30 years. And it was beautiful because I watched the seasons come and go at our farm, which we’ve had for 20 years, that I didn’t even know happened, and watching the life and the death and wrote a lot of songs. I try to be really productive. And so it was OK for me. I mean, I know that I’m one of the lucky ones that I had space and I had a career that was OK to put on hold for six months or whoever knows how long.”
