CAPITOL THEATRE Presents:
SAM ROBERTS BAND
Sam Roberts released his debut in 2002, following a popular
independent demo recording he had made in Montreal. Before that point, he had
been a violin player who eventually moved on to guitar and started a rock band
with his friends. The Inhuman Condition was released and became the
best-selling independent EP in Canadian history. In 2003 he released his first
full-length album, We Were Born in a Flame. The Certified Double-Platinum
selling album was a huge hit in Canada and won the Juno Awards for Album of the
Year, Rock Album of the Year, and Artist of the Year. He continued to release
hit albums for the remainder of the decade: Platinum-certified Chemical City in
2006 and Gold-certified Love at the End of the World in 2008. Each album also
won the Juno for Rock Album of the Year.
For his 2011 release, Collider, Roberts changed from using
his name to using Sam Roberts Band. In 2014, Lo-Fantasy was released to great
acclaim. Lead single We’re All In This Together reached the top of both
Canadian rock radio charts, followed by Top 10 hits Human Heat and
Shapeshifters. In 2016, TerraForm was released, the band’s 6th studio album.
Lead Single “If You Want It” reached #2 at both rock radio charts. The album
was nominated for the Rock Album Of the Year at the 2017 Juno Awards. In
2020 Sam Roberts Band released All of Us which featured the hits “Ascension”
and “Take Me Away” to critical acclaim. In 2021 All of Us, released during the
pandemic, was nominated for Rock Album of the Year. October 2023 saw the
release of the band’s eight studio album, The Adventures Of Ben Blank, which
features the new single “Picture of Love” and “Afterlife”.
Sam Roberts Band continue to deliver their legacy of hit
singles to take over the airwaves. The band’s legendary live show has
