From the 2019 “Agitpop” album, check out this solo performance of “The Barricade” from Ron Hawkins, as captured last Saturday at Jackson-Triggs. Plenty of LOTL songs were mixed into his set.
Whoa - this has truly gone viral! Thanks to all who have liked and shared! Something so magical about this collaboration. 🙏 🇨🇦 🎸 🎻
Absolutely stunning encore performance from Matt Mays and Anna Ludlow Music on the Jackson-Triggs stage last Saturday. You’ll watch this one more than once....
So glad that I captured Matt Mays and his band cranking out this incredibly rousing version of “Take it on Faith” last night at Jackson-Triggs. Video is a little shaky at times, due to trying to keep up with their energy and movement. Be sure to not miss the superb fiddle solo too.....
I’m so glad you got this on video! Fantastic!!
I’m so happy you got to that show! What a great night for everyone there!
Spectacular show!
The fiddler is Anna Ludlow! Check her out, she just release an album last week.
Ron Hawkins treats the Jackson-Triggs faithful to an old fave, “From the hands of Magdalena.”
Nothing beats a mid-August Saturday night show at Jackson-Triggs with Matt Mays and his band. Even better when we get to experience this phenomenal version of “City of Lakes.”
Saw him last night in Goderich. Always so good!
Thanks for sharing this!
hmmm nothing at all? interesting!
Words cannot express how great it was to see Ron Hawkins finally receive an invite to perform at the Jackson-Triggs summer concert series. Check out this awesome version of “Black.”
Happy Thursday: edging ever closer to another music-filled weekend ahead! Here’s our final video clip from the Muskoka Music Festival, featuring The Sadies closing with “Tiger Tiger.” Always love to see Travis and Dallas joining forces to fret each other’s guitars for a while, and how can you not “woooo” with Dallas at the end of those choruses??? Awesome stuff from the barge! Hopefully we’ve convinced many more people to be in Gravenhurst next Civic Day weekend for this amazing festival. See you there.
Here’s another clip featuring Jay Gilday from the Muskoka Music Festival (formerly Sawdust City Music Festival). Be sure to check back soon for the second half of our festival recap.
Still reliving some great moments from Muskoka Music Festival last weekend, especially one of our faves, StephenStanleyMusic, captured here cranking out this awesome performance of “The Same Old Joint,” with guest violinist Lara St. John adding her touch.
Following our recap of the recent performance by Bill & Joel Plaskett at Muskoka Music Festival, here’s a clip from that memorable night. Check out Bill taking the lead here with “On Down The River.” Enjoy.
Gillian Nicola shares “New Light” from her brand new “Dried Flowers” album at Muskoka Music Festival (formerly Sawdust City Music Festival). Be sure to check out this fantastic new album if you can.
Here’s some more music from Emm Gryner, who performed this outstanding version of “Christopher” last Saturday at Muskoka Music Festival (formerly Sawdust City Music Festival). Watch closely for a minor tweak in the lyrics, as suggested by host James Gordon.
The Sadies knock out this outstanding version of “The Good Years” on the barge, to close out the “outdoors” part of the Muskoka Music Festival (formerly The Sawdust City Music Festival).
More music from StephenStanleyMusic live from the Sawdust City Brewery last Sunday night, as part of the Muskoka Music Festival (formerly The Sawdust Music Festival). Check out this footage of “Here Comes That Rain.”
Love catching up with The Sadies, who performed an amazing set at Muskoka Music Festival (formerly Sawdust City Music Festival). Check out this footage of “God Bless The Infidels” as found on their recent “Northern Passages” album.
Team GDW are back home in PA after a wonderful long weekend in The Muskokas for the Muskoka Music Festival (formerly Sawdust City Music Festival). We still have plenty of video clips to share, including The Pairs who thrilled the crowd last night on the barge.

that barge is pretty spectacular space for the beautiful pairs!
John Stevens here’s the barge!
