Johnny Reid Is Primed To Launch 100+ Canadian Concert Dates

By David Farrell

Johnny Reid's Tartan Army is primed with news that an earlier postponed concert tour is back on and is scheduled to start in March.


Love Someone: An Intimate Evening with Johnny Reid is a monster of a tour too, topping more than 100 shows with multiple show dates from Vancouver Island to Newfoundland.

Opening nights are March 15 and 16 at Club Regent Event Centre in Winnipeg. The final dates according to the schedule are at the Regent Theatre in Oshawa, Oct. 27 and 28.

Owing to the fact that an earlier tour had to be postponed because of regional lockdowns, 90-percent of the shows on this tour are already sold out with new additions being added almost daily to fit fan demand where possible.
