The Tragically Hip are releasing their latest effort, “We Are the Same” on April 7th.  I’ve had a listen to the first couple tracks from the album, and I must say so far it definitely isn’t the same (yet again) as the tried and true HIp sound and feel they’ve been coming out with for the past 15+ years. 

The Hip are doing an “Evening with…” two-set nights with no openers.  And playing a monumental 5-nights stint @Massey Hall couldn’t be more of a perfect venue for this iconic Canadian band. Tour Dates:
