Del Barber
After years of balancing the road and the fields, award-winning musician Del Barber has decided to retire from music and dedicate himself fully to life as a farmer.
Del Barber and his band will play one final show in Thunder Bay - February 1, 2025.
Known for his soulful storytelling, Barber has long juggled his career as a touring musician across the U.S. and Canada with his responsibilities on a working farm, where he’s affectionately known as the “fence guy” each spring. For Barber, farming has always been more than a job—it’s a source of inspiration and a meditative rhythm that fuels his songwriting. Whether hauling grain or fencing pastures, he found that time in the fields brought profound clarity to his creative process.
Now, Barber will let the land become his stage, leaning into the physical, outdoor work that has always provided him with purpose and the stories he loves to tell.
Join us for a special bonus show with Del Barber as he takes "One Last Kick at the Can" before he retires from the road!
