YOU DO NOT NEED TICKETS FOR THIS SHOW
Sunday June 11th, the Linsmore Tavern (1298 Danforth Ave) welcomes back one of our very favourite bands to our Molson Canadian Blues Sunday Series, The Legendary Castaways! That's right, every second Sunday of the month, The Legendary Castaways will bring their 1960's and 70's American Blues and Rock to the Linsmore Tavern for Molson Canadian Blues Sunday Series! The Legendary Castaways have played at the Linsmore Tavern a number of times over the years and are definitely one of the real fan favourites because of their amazing live show! They are able to captivate the audience with their amazing musicianship and great set-list! We are so happy to have them perform their blues music every second Sunday of the month, as they are going to make this monthly show really fun!
The Legendary Castaways perform blues and rock hits (and not so hits) from the 60s and 70s. Some of their favourite artists include Johnny Winter, ZZ Top, Cream, Little Feat, Bill Withers, The Allman Brothers, The Band, and many more!
The Legendary Castaways are:
Joel Krass (vocals, guitar) - Joel is a former RCA Recording Artist (Headstrong/bomb32) and full-time music seeker. When he's not trolling the clubs to hear great local players, Joel plays a Gibson Les Paul Standard and uses Traynor and Roland amplifiers.
Ben Wilson (vocals, bass) - Ben is a former Warner Music (The Populars) recording artist with local roots in the rock, blues and country scene in Toronto. When he's not holding it down with the Castaways, you can find him on tour with Canadian country workhorse, Mike Plume. Ben plays Ernie Ball and Fender guitars and Ampeg amplifiers.
Paul Domanski (drums) - Paul is a lifetime veteran of the Toronto indie music scene (The Darned, Zuul's Evil Disco) with skills that span many genres (jazz, punk, rock, blues). Paul plays intoxicating champagne sparkle Gretch drums and uses Zildjan and Sabian cymbals.
The show starts at 7pm and there is a no cover! We have cheap pints of Molson Canadian all day, so come and check out this great band, as they always deliver!

On Friday July 7th, the Linsmore Tavern (1298 Danforth) has a very special band returning who all music fans and blues fans need to see, as The Gary Cain Band is back for a special Friday night show in Toronto! Coming back from Austin Texas, this will be The Gary Cain Band's only Toronto show, so do not miss it! We have had a ton of requests to bring Gary back for a show over the last year and we are so lucky to him back one more time, as he is not in Canada very often. The Gary Cain Band held down a monthly Sunday residency at the Linsmore throughout 2017 and parts of 2018 and captivated many people with their incredible blues music! Gary Cain has gained a ton of notoriety as one of the top blues musicians and guitar virtuoso's not only in Canada but around the world! He is considered, the #4 independent blues guitarist in the world (2016 Six String Theory) and was also Semi-Finalists in The Blues Foundation’s 2018 International Blues Challenge, held in Memphis. He moved to Austin, Texas and has been touring all over melting faces with his tremendous guitar playing! Gary has a very hectic schedule over the summer touring everywhere, so don't miss out on seeing this talent in Toronto. Gary is only back for a short period of time, so Toronto music fans, we are really in for a big treat with Gary returning to play the Linsmore! The show starts at 9:30pm, tickets are $10 in advance, $10 at the door so do not miss this show!
Gary Cain is Canada's #1 Independent Blues Artist! Some of the bands that has influenced Gary Cain's Blues music, include Eric Gales, Philip Sayce, Stevie Ray Vaughan, AC/DC, Danny Gatton, ZZ Top, Chris Duarte, Scott Henderson, Doyle Bramhall II, Greg Koch, Albert King, Albert Collins, and Jimi Hendrix! In 2019 Gary opened a show for George Thorogood and The Destroyers at Massey Hall in front of 3000 people and absolutely stole the show! He is gaining a ton of worldwide recognition and someone you need to see live!
Gary Cain is one of the most exciting guitar-slingers on the blues scene today. As a child he spent entire days in his parents’ basement learning AC/DC songs note-for-note on a cheap classical guitar. “Eventually I think they thought ‘It’s time to get him into lessons.’ I still laugh when I think back to me as a 12-year old kid trying to explain to my Mom the intricacies of Angus Young’s solo on the live version of Whole Lotta Rosie.”
After studying guitar at Humber College’s world-renowned music program, he played in several bands, eventually landing a gig in Dubai in the house band for The Lodge, one of Dubai’s largest nightclubs. The four-sets-a-night, six-nights-a-week pace eventually led to a vocal injury that sidelined him. “I wasn’t sure what to do, no seemed to be able to tell me what the problem was. When I finally got into see a specialist that could tell me, it was a relief to know it was something I could come back from.” Now, back in action with a style he calls Twang-a-Delic Blues-o-Phunk, he’s backed by a rhythm section featuring two incredibly well-rounded, experienced, and talented musicians. “It’s great to be able to play with guys that can draw from so many styles. It gives us a lot of freedom to stretch out of the typical blues box and into a lot of cool different places.”
In 2016 Gary placed 4th in the world in the blues category of Grammy Winner Lee Ritneour’s Six String Theory guitar competition, judged by such greats as Joe Bonamassa, Ry Cooder, and Joe Satriani. He is also an Official Fractal Artist.

[post_content] => This is going to be really cool! This night is definitely for diehard fans of The Beatles and The Rolling Stones! On Thursday June 15th, the Linsmore Tavern (1298 Danforth Ave), is excited to welcome for the very first time, The Rolling Fabs and their Tribute to The Beatles and The Rolling Stones! This incredible Tribute band is very unique, instead of playing the standard hits of these two legendary bands, you will get to hear the unsung gems of these two bands, that all of the hardcores will definitely appreciate! The show starts at 7:30pm, there will be a $10 cover at the door, so don't miss it!
Do you love The Beatles and Stones but want to hear more than just the usual well-known hits? Well, your prayers have been answered.
The Rolling Fabs play the unsung acoustic guitar-based gems of two of the deepest catalogues of great songs in rock. From Lady Jane to Lovely Rita to Sweet Virginia to Dear Prudence, The Rolling Fabs play a definitive set of songs that hardcore fans of both bands have been longing to hear live.
Born out of lead singer-guitarist Sean Peever's love of the lesser known deep cuts from both bands (especially the acoustic ones), The Rolling Fabs are a six piece ensemble that, while mostly remaining faithful to the original arrangements, also puts their unique spin on them as well.
Their thirty song set consists of fifteen songs each from The Beatles and Rolling Stones - many of which have never or rarely been played live by them. Hardcore fans will revel in hearing songs that they've always loved. Casual fans will be pleasantly surprised to discover songs that they've never heard and fans of one band but not the other, may find themselves bopping along to songs from "the other side".

The Brokes are a note-for-note tribute to the Strokes formed in 2022 by five veteran Toronto musicians.

With a deep repertoire of songs off of every major release, The Brokes weave through the timeless classics and deep cuts of The Strokes with precision, poise, and pure rock and roll energy.

[post_content] => Friday July 14th we are bringing back a band who absolutely killed it the last time they played the Linsmore Tavern (1298 Danforth Ave) earlier in January of this year! ZERO GIVEN will be in the house and will bring their very diverse setlist spanning from the 60s to now to our stage! This band blew us away on a Thursday night with a capacity crowd! In fact they were so good, we had to bring them back and this time not on a school night1 Get ready for a fun night of music with this excellent band. The show starts at 9:30pm, there's no cover!
ZER0 GIVEN is a GTA based rock cover band and the official band of the Toronto Hash House Harriers (an international drinking club for people with a running problem!). The group is made up of five diverse individuals: Lead vocalist Spence is rumoured to be the leader of a cultish Oasis fan club. On rhythm guitar, Tom is Zero's lone American member and has an unconscious ability to forget any Canadian band or their songs. On lead guitar, Brian is proof that you don't need hair to be a rockstar. Filling out the bottom end, bass player John is known for his lack of both his onstage clothing and tact while drummer Scott remains traumatized having to keep the beat behind John and his wardrobe choices.
Come out and dance, listen and see friends while ZeroGiven plays a wide range of music from the 60's to present day including The Kinks, The Black Keys, Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Pixies, The Georgia Satellites, Dandy Warhols and many, many more!

[post_content] => One of our most popular nights, since we reopened after the pandemic was the last Wednesday of every month, which is what we call the 911 night a monthly residency at the Linsmore Tavern (1298 Danforth Ave) with the 10-19 Band, featuring GTA Paramedics and Nurses! It's been a little bit of a hiatus from these musicians, but they are returning for the last Wednesday in June, which is Wednesday June 28th! The 10-19 Band is a band featuring some of Toronto's first responders who are some of the real heroes of our city! Get ready to party with GTA paramedics and nurses at the Linsmore Tavern, to some fun upbeat music from the 80s to now! There's no cover and the night starts at 8pm!
Sarah Young (Emergency Room Nurse) and Billy Young (Toronto Paramedic) started their music relationship together in the early 2000’s playing acoustic covers at work parties and teaming with co-worker Morgan Jones Phillips (Toronto Paramedic and writer of The Emergency Monologues) performing with an original blues/rock band in the Toronto live music scene. In 2015 they were approached by a booking agent to start a cover band consisting of all front line workers. The three of them invited musician/Medics to form The 10-19 Band that year and headlined the first annual “Artist In The Ambulance” show at 3030 in the Junction. The “Artist In The Ambulance” shows continued up until 2020 and 10-19 also played other shows during their first few years together. Unfortunately and as with many live performers Covid-19 took its toll on the live music scene and also front line workers. The 10-19 Band is excited to announce the next phase in “front line live music”. Thanks to The Linsmore Tavern the current 10-19 line up is a 5 piece band consisting of original members bringing back their unique blend of cover songs old and new. With their powerhouse singers Sarah and Annie Tat (Toronto Paramedic), Billy (guitar) Morgan (bass) and drummer Jesse McArthur (Toronto CBRN Medic) The 10-19 Band is happy to be reunited with their dancing crowds like back in the day! The 10-19 Band will be bringing you covers from modern artist like the Lumineers and Vance Joy to 80’s or 90’s and everything in between.

Saturday August 19th the Linsmore Tavern (1298 Danforth Ave) is excited to bring back one of our absolute favourites and the very best Party band in the GTA, Riff Raff! Whenever there is a big event like Halloween, New Years Eve, a big party, we always want to bring in Riff Raff, as they are the best out there for entertaining a party! We have been trying to get these guys in over the last year, but with their busy schedule we have not been able to do so until now! With so many requests and absolutely tearing down the house every time they hit the Linsmore stage, including this past SOLD-OUT New Years Eve party!! Riff Raff is one of the best party band's you will ever see and hear live! With such a great set-list that will have you up dancing, Riff Raff delivers such a high energy show, that everyone in the room loves to be a part of! Riff Raff does not play many live shows anymore, so when you get a chance to see them, take advantage of it!
The band that didn't sleep with your grandma, but would. These guys play covers (think Zeppelin to Prince to Madonna to The White Stripes played by a band raised by wolves) and they'll get to the gig in a truck that goes a rockin' 62 km/h. Considered one of the best live bands in all of Toronto, there has been many requests to bring these guys in and here they are again! Featuring charismatic frontman Pat LoRe who is an absolute wildman with a mic, he's the type of frontman that will have you entertained and dancing along with the amazing music that Riff Raff plays!
If you are looking for a high energy night and a band that's going to put on an incredible live show that will have you up and dancing, then this is the night for you! The show starts at 9:30pm, so arrive early because the place will be packed and you will not want to miss one minute of this show, $10 in advance and $10 at the door!

[post_content] => Friday August 11th, the Linsmore Tavern (1298 Danforth Ave) is very excited to welcome back Covered in Cash: Johnny Cash Tribute who also happen to be the Premier Johnny Cash Tribute Bands in all of Canada! With members of the band now living outside of Canada, Covered in Cash has not been playing many shows in Canada, so this is a very rare opportunity to see them! They have played so many SOLD-OUT shows and memorable evenings over the years at the Linsmore! After seeing them perform at the Linsmore consistently over the last few years, we can confidently say that they are not just any Johnny Cash Tribute Band, they are the Best Johnny Cash Cover Band in Canada!
Featuring Rick Aulier as Johnny Cash who happened to own the very popular Irish Bar on Queen Street - An Sibin, where Covered in Cash played many capacity filled and memorable shows over the years at this popular bar! Rick Aulier doesn't try to be an impersonator of Johnny Cash, but if you closed your eyes and started the set by saying, "Hello I'm Johnny Cash", for one fitting moment you would fee you just heard the voice of the man in black. His contagious banter on stage draws you in and every now and then, when it gets more rockabily than country, Rick Aulier tones it down with heartfelt ballads like the swan song of Cash, "Hurt".
Guitarist Paul Morgan Husiak has had a solid decades-long career with his own bands, The Paul Morgan Project, WheelHouse, and Southern Sky (southern rock tribute). He has also been a full time member of the Elton Rohn Band, the world's premiere tribute to Elton John. Versatility has always been one Paul's strengths.
Drummer Dan Neumann has been hitting the tubs for neigh on 25 years. His main playing experience was in Europe, where he played with Nina Hagen, Dr. & the Medics, Gino Washington, Jamie Cullum among many others. In Toronto, he actively teaches drums at schools and privately. He also plays with known Canadian artists such as Ken Whitely, with whom he recorded an album of children's songs.
Howard Rabkin (bass), was born in Montreal and started playing bass at
the age of 14. He played with a host of Montreal-based bar and concert
bands, sharing stages with Jesse Winchester, George Duke, Billy
Cobham, John Scofield. He became a touring musician, travelling
throughout Eastern Canada, eventually moving to Toronto in the'80s.
An eclectic performer, he has worked as a bassist, pedal steel
guitarist and acoustic guitarist with many artists, live and on
recordings, and in most genres -- from Rock, Pop, Blues, Folk,
Country, Disco ( yes..even that!) playing both original music and
covers. Howard was part of the 90’s indie recording band “the deli
llamas” with Staggered Crossing’s guitarist Bruce Adamson and since
then has been the bass player of choice for many local Toronto artists
and bands.
Covered in Cash is a great tribute to a great artist! This show is definitely going to be a SELL-OUT, so get your tickets now! Tickets are only $10 in advance, $10 at the door! You can buy tickets at the online at www.linsmoretavern.com

The year was 2020. Unprecedented measures were mandated, and darkness fell on the world. A collection of accomplished Toronto-based musicians decided to find peace and light in music. The venue: an outdoor porch in Toronto. Un-marketed, unadvertised, and unrehearsed, these players got together on a weekly basis to stay productive and creative, and to have fun.
Porch Jam was born.
Individually, the Porch Jam musicians have played concerts around the world, from stages in Tanzania, Africa, to night clubs of Chile and Ecuador in South America, to steamy venues throughout Toronto, and on JUNO nominated albums. For Porch Jam, the rules are simple: Have fun in music, love and respect one another, and pursue one’s passions. Over the span of sixteen weeks throughout 2020, Porch Jam lit it up. Each concert brought more attendees, and more smiles. Lawn chairs and blankets adorned the neighbourhood, and local residents looked forward to weekly sessions.
Porch Jam was thriving.
The porch lights dimmed as temperatures hit below zero but as 2020 clicked over to 2021, with much of the world in continued disorder, the decision was made to resume Porch Jam concerts ASAP. The spring equinox welcomed a repertoire expanded, sound and light improved, and audiences grown. The brotherhood that is Porch Jam has now been etched in stone, and the commitment has been made to always bring love, light, diversity and acceptance to the world through music.
Stylistically diverse, Porch Jam encompasses many musical styles and genres – jazz, rock, funk, fusion, pop, blues and more. Porch Jam regularly covers artists such as Steely Dan, Bill Withers, Led Zeppelin, Elton John, The Beatles, CSNY, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, The Grateful Dead, and more. Great music knows no boundaries, and Porch Jam continues to push the limits in every way.

The Linsmore Tavern is excited to bring back one of the most popular bands to play the Linsmore Tavern, I Will Be King: Paying Tribute To The Genius of David Bowie on Saturday June 10th! I Will Be King have played twelve outstanding SOLD-OUT shows at the Linsmore Tavern over the last few years and we are thrilled to have them come back! There are a few Bowie Tributes out there, but none of them stand up to I Will Be King! Let's face the facts, David Bowie is one of the most influential artist's who has ever lived and he is a musical genius! This 6 piece band will definitely deliver the goods of the music of David Bowie and if you are a fan of Bowie, do not miss this show! There really is no David Bowie Tribute out there, like them!
There are few Artists that have influenced so many aspects of pop culture than David Bowie, in style, fashion, musicality, performance and both genre and gender bending.
STILETTO FLATS began planning a very special tribute to David Bowie at the beginning of 2015. They had no idea that he would pass in 2016 (indeed, Bowie seemed to have an ethereal personality that would keep him with us for years to come). With his death, the Flats have taken very special measures to present the best Bowie tribute possible, recognizing that there are few or no female-centric bands that would dare to undertake this. They present you, I Will Be King: Paying Tribute To The Genius of David Bowie!
The Band Features:
Elana Harte, vocals, guitar
Lucio Agostini, backs, guitar
Janet Whiteway, backs, keyboards
Jen Benton, bass
Robyn McDonald, drums
Suze Burmester, percs, backs
Tickets for this amazing show are now on sale and are only $12 in advance, $15 at the door! You can purchase your tickets online at

Sunday June 11th, the Linsmore Tavern (1298 Danforth Ave) welcomes back one of our very favourite bands to our Molson Canadian Blues Sunday Series, The Legendary Castaways! That's right, every second Sunday of the month, The Legendary Castaways will bring their 1960's and 70's American Blues and Rock to the Linsmore Tavern for Molson Canadian Blues Sunday Series! The Legendary Castaways have played at the Linsmore Tavern a number of times over the years and are definitely one of the real fan favourites because of their amazing live show! They are able to captivate the audience with their amazing musicianship and great set-list! We are so happy to have them perform their blues music every second Sunday of the month, as they are going to make this monthly show really fun!
The Legendary Castaways perform blues and rock hits (and not so hits) from the 60s and 70s. Some of their favourite artists include Johnny Winter, ZZ Top, Cream, Little Feat, Bill Withers, The Allman Brothers, The Band, and many more!
The Legendary Castaways are:
Joel Krass (vocals, guitar) - Joel is a former RCA Recording Artist (Headstrong/bomb32) and full-time music seeker. When he's not trolling the clubs to hear great local players, Joel plays a Gibson Les Paul Standard and uses Traynor and Roland amplifiers.
Ben Wilson (vocals, bass) - Ben is a former Warner Music (The Populars) recording artist with local roots in the rock, blues and country scene in Toronto. When he's not holding it down with the Castaways, you can find him on tour with Canadian country workhorse, Mike Plume. Ben plays Ernie Ball and Fender guitars and Ampeg amplifiers.
Paul Domanski (drums) - Paul is a lifetime veteran of the Toronto indie music scene (The Darned, Zuul's Evil Disco) with skills that span many genres (jazz, punk, rock, blues). Paul plays intoxicating champagne sparkle Gretch drums and uses Zildjan and Sabian cymbals.
