Road Apples - Canada's Premiere Tragically Hip Tribute

Hailing from the very birthplace of the  venerable Canadian rock group it pays homage to, Road Apples formed in  Kingston, Ontario during December 1992 and quickly  established itself as the best, busiest and most sought after tribute  show to The Tragically Hip.

The momentum the band was able to build in the first half of 1993 ultimatel  helped catapult it to national status and success. In the wake of its concerts, word spread quickly that  this was a band that was worth the price of admission. From June 1993 until August 1998, the band members made their collective living touring Canada on a full-time basis. From  Newfoundland to Vancouver Island and northern Alberta to upstate  New York, the band logged thousands of miles as it amassed a resume of  close to one thousand performances – leaving no doubt  that Road Apples is a band that has earned its favourable reputation  through years of hard touring.

After  5 years of essentially living on the road, the band made  a decision to scale down its schedule to enable the members to focus on  other life pursuits. While remaining active from the fall of 1998 through to present day, the band has been more selective in the venues and events it has performed at.

As a result of Road Apples’ success  in the mid-90’s, there has been a proliferation of other bands offering  what                                        is billed as a similar service to  the market. However,  there is one thing that ultimately distinguishes Road Apples from the  other ‘Hip’ tribute bands:   experience.  Experience breeds confidence and confidence begets  consistency.                                         With thousands of live  performances now under their belts, the members of this band have  collectively honed their craft to a level unmatched by any of their  competitors.
