About Me

"Married Again" - Jim Cuddy w/ Kathleen Edwards - Web Only Version!"Pull Me Through" - Jim Cuddy
It  was the mid-seventies when Jim Cuddy and Greg Keelor first met each other in  high school.  After discovering a mutual love of music, they formed an  “amphetamine pop band” called the HiFi’s.  The pair moved to New York  City in 1981 and tried to land a recording contract.  Three years later  they returned to Toronto without a deal but discovered a burgeoning club scene  where acts like k.d. lang, The Cowboy Junkies and Jeff Healey were honing  their chops. Through a series of chance meetings and the classified ads, Jim  and Greg formed Blue Rodeo.
Since the release of their debut  album, Outskirts, in March 1987, Blue Rodeo have established themselves  as one of the premiere bands in Canadian music history.  They have  released ten studio albums, one live album, a Greatest Hits collection, and an  award winning DVD, selling in excess of 4 million copies around the world.   
In 1998, Jim released his first solo album All In  Time, which went on to sell Gold in his native Canada. His second solo  recording, The Light That Guides You Home, hit stores in September 2006  to critical acclaim and Cuddy proves once again that his songwriting ranks  with the best Canada has to offer.
