With dates in Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, British Columbia and 6 shows in rural Quebec, the tour reaffirms The Sheepdogs’ dedication to their fanbase, promising unforgettable nights of rock 'n' roll magic. More dates will be announced when available. See below for a full routing and check the band’s website for ticket information.
“We’re a band from Saskatoon, so we are no strangers to having to travel to bigger cities to see concerts. Because of this, it’s always been a mission for this band to not just play the big cities, but smaller cities and towns across this nation as well. From our experience, this is where some of the biggest music fans live. You shouldn’t be denied live music in your hometown, just because you don’t live in a major city.”
In anticipation of the upcoming Canadian run, The Sheepdogs have released a captivating concert film capturing two unforgettable sold-out nights at the Shore Club in the picturesque small town of Hubbards, Nova Scotia - population

What the press is saying about The Sheepdogs & Outta Sight:
“Southern-rock sunsets and West-Coast warmth, captured in proper rock-your-socks-off packages”– Classic Rock Magazine UK
“...le quintette canadien revient avec Outta Sight, un nouveau chapitre bardé de compos volcaniques, puisées dans le grenier à pépites du classic rock du deep south…Étincelant!” - Rolling Stone France
“A jubilant rock record that stands a cut above the rest. It’s road tripping music with the sentiment of a summer music festival.” – Spill Magazine
“A varied 10-song take on a vein previously mined by the likes of ZZ Top, Creedence Clearwater Revival, the Allman Brothers Band and Lynyrd Skynyrd, but freshened as only the Sheepdogs can do it: meaty double guitar leads, blasts of organ and electric piano; a chorus of strong harmonies and hook-filled songs that have lyrical substance under what seems to be a lighter-hearted exterior.” – Toronto Star
“You’ve changed and I’ve changed, but the Sheepdogs have not. They still double their guitar riffs and choogle their hearts out on their latest album, while occasionally displaying admiration for J.J. Cale and Peace of Mind-era Boston.” – Globe & Mail
“The album provides a warm, welcome escape from modern woes. Which can only be a good thing at present.” –
“Without question, the albums of the Sheepdogs have always sounded like a ruthless raid through the record collection of your Boomer parents. However, the strength of the Sheepdog … is to assemble the offsets and echoes, the ingredients and references in such a way that the best good-time rock n’roll comes out.” – VISIONS MAGAZINE Germany
“We have recent proof that the band is a classic act on stage from their recent visit to Stockholm. These Canadians know exactly how to tune and play a guitar to make it catchy. They have once again made a brilliant album.” –
“From track one to eleven, Outta Sight is rich with classic rock, blues rock, boogie and southern style influences, all combining into the perfect post-pandemic rock album.” – Music Existence
"They’re getting better and better with each record...make sure to grab a copy of Outta Sight. It’s kickass rock & roll that’s timeless, modern and everything in between." – Rock N Heavy USA
"The Sheepdogs prove to themselves on their seventh studio album Outta Sight that they used their time wisely during the dark days of the pandemic, creating a work of musical art that stays true to a nostalgic rock n’ roll sound...an inspiring album that has a modern twist while still staying true to who they are with their ‘70s rock style.
By the time you get to the end of the album, you will wish it was longer." – Pan M 360
