Valdy 2024 Tour

Play Me a Rock and Roll Song’s success is attributable in part to several factors. It cleverly played into the hippy counter-culture movement, while embodying the tensions between rock and folk fans (which Bob Dylan discovered when he infamously used electric instruments at the 1965 Newport Folk Festival).
A man with a thousand friends, from Newfoundland to Vancouver Island to Texas to New Zealand, he’s a singer, guitarist and songwriter who catches the small but telling moments that make up life.
Valdy has sold almost half a million copies of his 16 albums, 22 singles, has 2 Juno Awards (Folk Singer of the Year and Folk Entertainer of the Year), a total of 7 Juno nominations and 4 Gold albums to his credit.
ORDER OF CANADA
Valdy has been named to the Order of Canada (Arts/Music) for his achievements as a folk musician and for his support of charitable causes.
