The Peterborough Musicfest is presenting Tom Cochrane & Red Rider on Saturday, July 8th at Del Crary Park in Peterborough, Ontario. The concert is part of the Peterborough Musicfest that hosts concerts every Wednesday and Saturday nights throughout the summer. 

I1978, Toronto band Red Rider added a new lead singer-songwriter. Nine years later the band had accumulated 11 Juno nominations and a win for Group of the Year, but it wasn’t until his solo release of “Life Is a Highway” and the album Mad Mad World – one of three Canadian albums ever to reach diamond status (over one million sold) – that Tom Cochrane ascended from what he called “manageable success” to superstardom.

Tom Cochrane is a down to earth Canadian prairie boy at heart from Lynn Lake Manitoba, who came of age and started playing music in the west end of Toronto, Tom now divides his time between the tour bus, the city, and his beloved studio/retreat “Layastone” on the shores of Georgian Bay.
