At age 80 Harrison truly is a member of Canada’s Blues royalty. He does it all with his amazing voice - Roots, Blues, Soul and R&B. Born and raised in “The Hammer” Harrison started his career with a bang in the early ‘70s when he joined the famous Motown band Chairmen Of The Board. He travelled the world with them performing on shows like Soul Train, American Bandstand and England’s Top Of The Pops. When COTB ended Harrison returned to Hamilton where he basically dropped out of the music business for 30 years before re-emerging in 2003 with a great album called “Sweet Taste”. Since then he’s released 8 more.

Tickets to Blues on the Rideau get you dinner & show. Call 1-613-273-3636 to ensure they've not sold out! Proceeds from tonight go to the Rideau District Museum. At age 80 Harrison truly is a member of Canada’s Blues royalty.

(4th brother Robert also collaborates on writing their songs). They come by their unique blend of Blues, Soul, Funk and R&B honestly. Their ancestors came to Canada via the Underground Railroad in the 1800’s bringing their rich heritage of African American music with them. And their father – Bobby Dean Blackburn – was a mainstay keyboardist on the vibrant Toronto R&B scene for decades.
