About Blue Rodeo
Blue Rodeo is a country rock band from Toronto, ON, formed in 1984.
Blue Rodeo formed in Toronto in 1984 around Jim Cuddy and Greg Keelor, who had played together since their school days. The two write separately and sing their own songs, so the records swing between Cuddy's clear, melodic tenor and Keelor's rougher, more psychedelic streak. Bassist Bazil Donovan has been with them from the start.
Their 1987 debut, Outskirts, carried "Try" onto Canadian radio, and the 1993 album Five Days in July, recorded at Keelor's farm, settled them into a looser, acoustic, porch-session sound. The band was inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame in 2012.
