In the music world, Gordon Lightfoot may very well be the idol of icons. When listening to a Lightfoot recording, Bob Dylan "doesn't want the song to end", and can't think of any of his songs he doesn't like. Daniel Lanois loves everything about him. Jimmy Buffet admits he always tries to write songs like him. But rather than bask in the adulation he so clearly inspires, the musical legend continues to work harder than ever.
Currently marking five decades of touring & counting, Gordon Lightfoot will once again invite fans to be a part of his legacy when he embarks on his 2014 Canadian Tour.
Mr. Lightfoot has won 15 Juno Awards & been nominated for 5 Grammy Awards. He was inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame in 1986 & the Canadian Country Music Hall Of Fame in 2001. In May 2003 was made a Companion of the Order of Canada & is also a member of the Order of Ontario. In 2004 was inducted into the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame and, in 2012, the U.S. Songwriters Hall of Fame.
