Riverboat Revisited: The Lightfoot Band

🎶Part of our Riverboat Revisited series, highlighting iconic performers from the historic Riverboat Coffee House in Toronto.

The Lightfoot Band returns to The Westdale after a SOLD OUT show this past November! The band features the original musicians that toured with Gordon Lightfoot for decades. Rick Haynes on Bass, Barry Keane on Drums and Percussion, Mike Heffernan on Keyboards, Carter Lancaster on Lead Guitars with Andy Mauck on Rhythm Guitars and Lead Vocal. Together, they feel strongly that the Lightfoot Band should continue to present the songs of Gordon Lightfoot, along with some of their stories and history, for their loyal fans to enjoy in a concert setting.

We’re thrilled to announce there will be a special display of Gordon Lightfoot memorabilia from his legendary performances at the Riverboat Coffee House to view before the performance!

🎙️Riverboat Coffee House: Opened in 1964 by Bernie Fiedler, The Riverboat coffeehouse became a legendary venue in Yorkville, hosting countless iconic artists. A hub for Canada’s music scene, it launched the careers of many artists and remains celebrated as a cultural landmark, immortalized with a Heritage Toronto plaque in 2009.
