FATHEAD blows out the lights at BOTR @ The Cove
2X Juno Award and multiple Maple Blues Award winners FATHEAD came up from Toronto/Havelock/London to play BLUES ON THE RIDEAU at THE COVE INN, Westport this past weekend and delivered two great shows. It’s their 20th Anniversary this year and they showed why they are one of the best loved and most decorated bands in the country. Their wonderful blend of blues/funk/soul and R&B really is a unique, special recipe. May they continue for another 20 years+.

“Great service and super friendly people. 10 out of 10 for the band and Seamus is not only a good server, he’s a good performer too! We’ll definitely be back and bring friends with us” Steve & Nathalie O’Brien, Carleton Place (First-timers)
“This evening was fabulous. A great venue, outstanding service and the band was HOT on a cold November evening. 10 out of 10 for everything”
