2012

There is a certain excitement that comes when you accomplish something that you have been striving for. It’s part relief, part genuine euphoria, and definitely part panic. Because now that you have reached this well-fought-for goal, what do you do next? The Sheepdogs are a Saskatoon band that have been playing around for approximately seven years. It has been a long hard haul, but the light at the end of the sweaty, small, dark music clubs through the Canadian heartland came quite unexpectedly via Rolling Stone and a whole gaggle of music fans that voted for the band to be on the cover. And it wasn’t only Canadians that boosted them above their competition.
