Rik Emmett of Triumph November 14, 2008

Rik is easily recognized as the singer, songwriter and guitarist of the rock trio Triumph, a band which had successful hits such as "Lay It On The Line" and "Magic Power."

He has his fair share of gold and platinum hanging on the wall after surviving three decades in the music biz. Awards like Best Guitarist at the '81 Junos, induction into the Canadian Rock Hall of Fame in '93, and Best Smooth Jazz Guitarist in 2005 highlight an ever- evolving career. There's a true singer/songwriter at the heart of it all - a multi-dimensional artist, with nothing to prove except the dignity and maturity of his continuing commitment to great music.

Rik is performing as The Strung-Out Troubadours, an acoustic duo with Dave Dunlop. Dave has been a guitar player, writer, singer & educator professionally for the last 15 years. Originally from Ottawa, Toronto has been his homebase since the late 80’s. They will be performing two shows, one at 7pm, and one at 10 pm. Tickets are $20.00 for each show.
