Shania Twain Fulfills a Childhood Dream Playing Toronto's Horseshoe Tavern For the First Time: Concert Recap

At the legendary Queen West bar last night (July 17), the Queen of Country Pop took us back to her early days as a young country singer playing in honky-tonks throughout Northern Ontario.

Long before she was one of Canada's best-selling artists and a certified global icon, Shania Twain was a little girl playing dive bars and honky-tonks throughout Northern Ontario. On her new album Little Miss Twain (out July 24 via Republic Nashville/Universal Music Canada), Twain revisits that history in music for the first time. To celebrate that new era and preview new music, she played a special show in one bar she dreamed of playing but never got to: Toronto's Horseshoe Tavern.

Last night (July 17), she rocked that packed and sweaty bar for about 400 superfans and lived those dreams of her youth.
