Throughout the pandemic and music industry shut down, there was one thing, and only one, that saved Saskatchewan-based band The Sheepdogs - straight-up, non-bummer, pandemic-induced rock and roll. And on June 3rd, 2022, with the release of their new album, Outta Sight, The Sheepdogs hope that rock and roll can save you too.

The Sheepdogs were formed in 2004 and have an incredible legacy which includes number one songs, gold and platinum albums, countless sold-out tours, and have landed on the cover of Rolling Stone. Despite all their accolades they remain a tight-knit and down-to-earth rock 'n' roll force to be reckoned with.

The hard-working and hard-living Canadian band composed of Ewan Currie (vocals, guitar), Ryan Gullen (bass), Sam Corbett (drum), Jimmy Bowskill (guitar), and Shamus Currie (guitar)—were, like the rest of us, confused, cast ashore, and feeling isolated during COVID. This band used this time to produce the grooviest, simplest, and most penetrating album of their career - Outta Sight. With no roadmap and an overall uncertainty hanging over the universe, The Sheepdogs circled up, plugged into their amps, shared riffs and melodies, and leaned on each other for inspiration.

The strength of The Sheepdogs is in their full-throttle music that appeals to your senses. Without pretension, it's urgent, rhythmic, clear, and fun; it's a break from slick production and gazing at your navel and proclaims the joy and jubilation of drums, bass, horns, and electric guitar. The Sheepdogs make tunes that make you nod your head.

"Rock 'n' Roll is about cheering us up. Simple as that," says Ewan Currie. "We hope our music does the same for the listeners at a time where things still can feel very tough. There's no greater truth than rock 'n' roll."

True to their word - there is no greater truth than rock 'n' roll - especially the way The Sheepdogs deliver it. Once you start listening to the music of The Sheepdogs, you cannot escape that smile delivered straight to your face as their infectious guitar-driven rock moves and captures every fiber of our being.
As you listen to the music of The Sheepdogs, your ears perk up as you can hear the quintessence and influence of 1970s guitar-driven rock. Listen as The Sheepdogs create fresh new music while drawing from timeless music.

Each time we listen to the music of The Sheepdogs, we look forward to seeing them perform live, and it is with deep anticipation that we look forward to seeing The Sheepdogs perform at Union Stage in Washington, DC, on October 21st.
