Bob Wiseman live at the Mule Spinner | The Mule Spinner

Details

Bob Wiseman is unapologetically original and fiercely independent. From his early days with Blue Rodeo, where he brought an unpredictable edge to the bands' more predictable alt-country sound. Bob's solo work flirts and co-mingles with a wide range of influences from jazz to folk and punk, experimental and beyond. His music is a mix of wit, wisdom, and a kind of strange beauty and personal self-expression and protest music that you can only make if you’re willing to walk off the beaten path and be brave. Bob Wiseman's influence extends far beyond his solo work; he's also an academic, prolific producer, composer and filmmaker, having worked with a wide range of musicians and on numerous film and television scores. He has produced albums for the likes of Ron Sexsmith, Edie Brickell, and Bruce McCulloch of Kids in the Hall and collaborated with artists across genres, from Jane Siberry to Michelle Shocked, and stages with the likes of Billy Bragg and Daniel Lanois. Bob Wiseman is a one-man revolution in the music world, a true dark horse who defies categorization and thumbs his nose in the face of convention. He has spent his career creating music that refuses to be tamed or boxed in. In a world full of noise, Bob Wiseman is a rare voice of individuality and creative musicality that should make you stop and listen. If you haven’t heard of him, that’s probably because he’s too busy making great art and working on his PhD to worry about being famous. Information Source: The Mule Spinner | eventbrite
