Shotgun Jimmie Lines Up Cross-Canada Tour

BY Alex HudsonPublished Jun 8, 2011

Following his time in Shotgun & Jaybird, Shotgun Jimmie has gone on to an acclaimed solo career. That's why many Canadians will be excited to learn than the New Brunswick-based troubadour is hitting the road for a national tour this summer.

The lengthy excursion begins this week on the East Coast and will last all the way until August. In that time, Shotgun Jimmie will travel from coast to coast, playing shows and teaming up with Snailhouse, Apollo Ghosts and Duffy and the Doubters along the way.

Jimmie will be promoting his latest album, Transistor Sister, which we praised for its "pop hooks" and "offbeat charm." See the complete tour schedule below.
