Bruce Cockburn

For over 50 years, Canadian singer-songwriter Bruce Cockburn has melded folk, jazz, rock, and global sounds, making an inimitable imprint on Canadian music and culture. A revered guitarist, gifted lyricist, and fervent activist, Cockburn has had an illustrious career shaped by politics, spirituality, and musical diversity. He describes his signature guitar style as "a combination of country blues fingerpicking and poorly absorbed jazz training," and it has proven, time and time again, to be the perfect accompaniment to his lyrics about joy, pain, fear, faith, and the world around us. In his Bing Concert Hall performance, Cockburn brings more of his signature sounds and revolutionary spirit.
