  • Mavado Marching Through Canada

    29 Jan 2010 /  General

    Mavado’s historic 10 city tour of Canada, kicked off last night (January 28) to a packed house in London, Ontario. The country-wide tour is already sold out, and will culminate in front of a crowd of thousands next weekend at the Sound Academy in Toronto.

    During next week, Mavado, with opening acts Future Fambo and Stacious, will make the long trek to western Canada for shows in Edmonton, Calgary and Vancouver, before heading back for several shows in Ontario.

    Last night’s show in London, Ontario, saw a large and very mixed crowd of mostly females, who were extremely responsive to the ‘Gully Gaad’. Alliance selector Boom Boom whipped the crowd into a frenzy, before Mavado took to the stage.

    “There were a lot of different nations in there last night,” said Mavado. “Its good to see them singing along to my new material as well as the older songs, which means Dancehall is definitely spreading to a wider audience.“

    With Mavado and his travelling party already experiencing snow blizzards and temperatures as low as -9, the heat he is bringing to Canada will definitely help.
