Johnny Reid Is Primed To Launch 100+ Canadian Concert Dates

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.

The six-time Juno Award winner will be promoting his eleventh album, Love Someone, released in October 2021 through UMC.

Ron Sakamoto's Gold & Gold Productions and Sakamoto Entertainment out of Lethbridge is the tour promoter.

Cirkut Won Both Grammy & Juno Awards for Producer of the Year: Who Else Has Done That?

Just two other producers have doubled up — and just one other has done it in the same calendar year.

Cirkut is on a historic awards roll. On Feb. 1, he won the Grammy for producer of the year, non-classical. On March 28, he won the Juno Award in his native Canada in the same category (since 2002, the award has been named in honour of Jack Richardson, the late Canadian producer who is probably best known in the U.S. for helming The Guess Who’s 1970 smash “American Woman.”)

Cirkut (born Henry Russell Walter) is just the second producer to win both awards in the same calendar year. The first was David Foster, who took both awards in 1985, when his big credit was the hit-laden Chicago 17. One other producer, Daniel Lanois, has won both awards, but he has yet to win both in the same year.
