What Nirvana did for rock music in the 1990s in America, Spirit of the West did in Canada. What started as a highly successful folk rock band in the 1980s evolved into a sensational alt rock group that took the country and the music charts by storm to become one of the most iconic bands in recent Canadian music history. They dominated the charts with their gutsy songs that had a distinct folk element with unmistakable hints of punk and British pop, genres that wouldn't seemingly mesh but the geniuses of Spirit of the West managed to weave together brilliantly.

Hailing from Vancouver, CA, the quintessential outdoorsman's paradise, Spirit of the West got their start as a prominent folk band playing the kind of music one might expect from a crop of musicians raised on lots of fresh air and hiking. Their whimsical songs were highly popular in the area and across Canada for their natural feel and charm. But as Spirit of the West matured, they began to incorporate other sounds, ones that by themselves would clash with their original vibe, but when subtly woven into their preexisting style created a unique sound that audiences couldn't get enough of. Folk music for the modern ear, Spirit of the West is not to be missed, so hurry over to StubHub to get your tickets today!

In the 1980s, Spirit of the West sat firmly at the head of the folk music table, a favorite among fans and critics. But after some time, the band grew tired of their sound and wanted something new. So they took some time off to spend time listening, not playing much, and just listening to what else was going on in the world and what inspired them. After some time, they went back to the studio and surprised even themselves with how much they were able to change.
One of Canada's most successful alternative rock acts of the 1990s, Spirit of the West played the soundtrack that defined a generation, songs that embodied the amorphous soul of that era. The band perfectly mirrored its fans, people in a perpetual state of self-discovery, and that journey led to some of the most innovative and essential music. Spirit of the West continues to be a sight to behold onstage, and their music is as fresh today as it was then. Get your folk music tickets from StubHub to see Spirit of the West live!
