Blue Rodeo has been travelling the highways and back roads of Canada for almost 30 years. “We always thought, if they had a place where we could play, we’d go,” says singer-songwriter Jim Cuddy. And the band has been true to this credo, bringing their music to audiences far and wide, and building a passionate and dedicated fan base as a result. At their shows, the expressions on the faces in the crowd say it all: concert-goers are transported inwardly to moments in their lives that remain vital in their hearts. Blue Rodeo: On the Road follows this iconic band on the last leg of their 2014 tour, and revisits their early days through found footage. The film captures the essence of a band that is forever moving forward—and always finding inspiration for their songs in the landscapes and people of Canada.
