Devin Cuddy Band + Gavin McLeod Band
May 24 @ 8:00 pm - 11:30 pm
From the moment Devin Cuddy was drawn to playing music, he was determined to get as close as possible to the sources of all the sounds he loved, whether they were made by rock and roll’s founding fathers, the Grand Ole Opry’s honky tonk heroes, or Jelly Roll Morton and the kings of jazz.

Devin developed a blend of these sounds, that is uniquely his own, on a weekly basis at Toronto’s Cameron House, which he still considers his home base. These days this Juno-Nominated artist takes his sound from Coast to Coast to Coast. Devin released his 3rd full length album Dear Jane in Nov. 2023, which is a collection of songs from the years leading up to covid.

Forming a band with friends from a young age, Gavin’s collaborative spirit shines through in this new endeavour, created with that same band of brothers, live off the floor in the studio.
