By today’s standards, it can be called a miracle if a band stays together for five years and records two albums, but what would you call it when a band has been recording best selling albums for twenty years? Warner Music Canada artist Blue Rodeo are currently in the band’s Woodshed studio putting the final touches on Small Miracles, the band’s 11th studio recording. The thirteen track album, once again features the storied songwriting talents of Jim Cuddy and Greg Keelor. Small Miracles is scheduled for release in Canada on Tuesday, September 25, 2007. Recorded throughout the Spring of 2007, Small Miracles was produced by Blue Rodeo and Chris Shreenan-Dyck. The albums first single is the rollicking “C’mon”, which will be accompanied by a video directed by collaborator Chris Mills (Modest Mouse, The Tragically Hip, Broken Social Scene). Inspired by “Paddle To The Sea,” the video chronicles the journey of a song from its creation to recording to the public and, ultimately, to the concert stage. Blue Rodeo will launch Small Miracles with a series of events yet to be announced that will give fans a unique opportunity to experience the band up close and personal. Blue Rodeo has an enduring history that has seen them become one of Canada’s most influential bands. Formed in 1984 by longtime friends and songwriting collaborators Jim Cuddy and Greg Keelor, the group’s first album, 1987’s Outskirts, established them as hit makers with the omnipresent single “Try.” Over the next two decades the band’s studio albums have sold over 3 million copies and they have won a wealth of awards (including 4 Juno awards as Best Group) and earned critical acclaim. Blue Rodeo is now acknowledged as one of Canada’s greatest musical exports. The band has spent the summer playing a series of festival shows across Canada which culminates this week with a show at Toronto’s Molson Amphitheatre on Wednesday August 22, 2007 and at vancouver’s Malkin Bowl on Friday August 24 and Saturday August 25.. In 2008 the band will embark on a comprehensive cross-Canada tour.
