The blues, reggae, soul and funk all blended together in a distinctly only-from-Toronto sound has held the band in good stead over the years and it remains true to its roots. For this tour, the band is bringing reggae singer Willi Williams on tour to perform his classic hits with the band backing him. In nearly every place it plays, extra nights have been added.
