Great Big Sea have recently released a new all-traditional CD, The Hard & The Easy, and are touring like mad to promote it! After finishing up a hectic tour schedule including the US and Canada, which even included a new two-set (traditional/rock) format, GBS is still at it with concert dates late into this year. News has also surfaced that a second Great Big DVD is to be released this fall which includes footage from the Belleville shows last June.

Continue to watch this page to keep informed of more appearances to come in the New Year.
