Blue Rodeo at The Kee To Bala.
A musically diverse group of major international and Canadian stars will take to the historic stage in Ontario cottage country this summer, including Billy Corgan, Shaggy, The Reklaws, Down With Webster and more.
A historic and popular music venue in the Muskoka cottage country region of Ontario for the past eight decades, The KEE To Bala was taken over by Live Nation in 2023, and the clout of the international concert behemoth has upped the ante.
That's evident in the bookings. Today (May 5), this season's lineup was announced, and it again features major international and Canadian artists as headliners. Heading the international names are R&B superstar Nelly, fast-rising young American country star Dylan Gossett, alt-rockers Billy Corgan and The Machines of God with Collective Soul, reggae hitmaker Shaggy, rock veterans The Wallflowers and hip-hop stars Cypress Hill & Ja Rule.
The musically diverse Canadian contingent features multiple platinum-selling bands and crowd-pleasing veteran live favourites including Billy Talent, The Beaches, Nelly, Mother Mother, The Dead South, The Reklaws, Sam Roberts Band, The Trews, Kim Mitchell, Glass Tiger, USS, Headstones, Big Wreck, Dwayne Gretzky, Trooper, Tim Hicks, Dwayne Gretzky, Down With Webster, James Barker Band and Josh Ross.
