Featuring an exceptional all-Canadian, multi-instrument band, the show is led by vocalist and guitarist John Stinson, alongside music director and multi-instrumentalist Bob Doidge (Lightfoot’s longtime record producer), bassist Steve Eyers (Lightfoot’s nephew), and lead guitarist Eric Kidd (trained by Red Shea himself). Founded in 2012 by lead vocalist John Stinson, a longtime Ontario musician, CLASSIC LIGHTFOOT LIVE has earned widespread acclaim for its authenticity. Stinson is praised for his uncanny vocal resemblance to Lightfoot and his meticulous attention to recreating the original studio recordings, delivering a tribute that is both faithful and deeply moving. “Others can tell, even if they don’t know how or why John’s renditions come off as being so faithful. I’ve been told before, and many did that night, they can’t believe how well John sings Gord’s tunes.” - John Swartz, SunOnlineMedia.ca - Nov 2023. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/orillia/oh-so-sweet-the-songs-of-gordon-lightfoot-tribute-concert-featuring-the-classic-lightfoot-live-band/200029652249221 - **Event Categories**: music, entertainment, concerts, storytelling - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 28 ## Ticket Details ## Event venue details - **city**: Orillia - **state**: ON - **country**: Canada - **location**: Orillia Opera House - **lat**: 44.6083 - **long**: -79.4203 - **full address**: Orillia Opera House, Mississauga Street Westbound @ West Street (Orillia Transit Terminal), 18 Mississaga St W, Orillia, ON L3V, Canada ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Oh So Sweet: The Songs of GORDON LIGHTFOOT Tribute Concert featuring The Classic Lightfoot Live Band - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/bb2e4c65c918a97c45c11d5d1f5af0b5f2723085fe4ad32b43f41301456ad07f-rimg-w1200-h675-dc010101-gmir?v=1775154145 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Oh So Sweet: The Songs of GORDON LIGHTFOOT Tribute Concert featuring The Classic Lightfoot Live Band being held? - **A:** Oh So Sweet: The Songs of GORDON LIGHTFOOT Tribute Concert featuring The Classic Lightfoot Live Band takes place on Sun, 03 May, 2026 at 02:30 pm to Sun, 03 May, 2026 at 02:30 pm at Orillia Opera House, Mississauga Street Westbound @ West Street (Orillia Transit Terminal), 18 Mississaga St W, Orillia, ON L3V, Canada. - **Q**: Who is organizing Oh So Sweet: The Songs of GORDON LIGHTFOOT Tribute Concert featuring The Classic Lightfoot Live Band? - **A:** Oh So Sweet: The Songs of GORDON LIGHTFOOT Tribute Concert featuring The Classic Lightfoot Live Band is organized by Classic Lightfoot Live. - **Q**: What has been the experience of attendees at Classic Lightfoot Live's events? - **A:** Attendees have given Classic Lightfoot Live a rating of 4/5 based on reviews from early attendees on AllEvents.
