The Trews celebrate debut record at River Run Centre

GUELPH – The Trews take the Main Stage at River Run Centre on Feb. 10 at 8 pm. 

The Trews – House of Ill Fame 20th anniversary tour celebrates the band’s iconic, platinum-selling debut record. 

The show is part of the Sleeman-Spring Mill Music Series, which features a lineup of Canadian icons and international heavy-hitters. 

Released in 2003, House of Ill Fame is the first full-length album of The Trews. 

Last year, the record was certified platinum in Canada, reaching over 100,000 copies sold. 

With a 12-song track list written primarily by the four members of the band at that time – Colin MacDonald, Jack Syperek, John-Angus MacDonald and Sean Dalton – the album was produced by Big Sugar frontman and fellow Canadian rocker, Gordie Johnson.

“The Trews came to me as a baby band,” Gordie Johnson told Karen Coughtrey in an interview for A Journal of Musical Things. 

  On the House of Ill Fame 20th anniversary tour, the band plays the record in its entirety, along with other hits and fan favourites. 

Tickets to The Trews – House of Ill Fame 20th anniversary tour are $59 for adults, $57 for patrons over 60, and $39 for those under 30 years old.
