Bluesfest Day 3 – 2021 headliner closing out the night is the one and only Tom Cochrane and Red Rider. Personally, I was most excited to see this one. I grew up listening to the occasional Tom Cochrane track which made for all the nostalgia come flooding in for this one. The crowd is primed and the stage is set to cap off the perfect end to an amazing return to live music in the national capital area.
Fans expected nothing but the best so that’s what Tom brought! The energy was high and the party started as they belted out some of the fan favs like Boy Inside The Man, Big League, and The Untouchable One. I had never seen Tom live nor Red Rider so I was pleasantly surprised with the amount of energy coming from the stage. Everyone was obviously loving it and the perfect way to end to put an end to this amazing night was of course the most iconic track, Life is a Highway.
The night drew to an end and they did not disappoint as the music started and Life is a Highway started. Tom almost didn’t even need to sing as the sold-out crowd was serenading the stage showing their love. The perfect end to an amazing weekend.
