Since forming in Toronto in 1984, Blue Rodeo has become one of Canada’s most successful bands, with 12 full-length albums and multiple side projects. Their critically acclaimed album The Things We Left Behind, released in November of 2009, has the band rolling strong in their third decade together – making them a natural choice to perform at the Vancouver 2010 Cultural Olympiad.
