Tickets

Ottawa’s two time Juno award winning guitarist Tony D (MonkeyJunk) will celebrate the release of his new solo project, Electric Delta, with a tour that includes a stop in Calgary on November 14 at the famed King Eddy, presented by Calgary Bluesfest.

Electric Delta showcases Tony D’s guitar prowess and his broad musical tastes, all of which have formed the sound that makes him the renowned artist he is known as today. Recently signed to Cordova Bay Records, the album is the first of many to be released by Tony D on the label.

About Tony D:

Tony began his musical journey learning blues, rock and jazz guitar by studying any vinyl record he could get his hands on. By his late teens he was making a living in a band full time, playing 3 nights of rhythm guitar for Buddy Guy and opening for Stevie Ray Vaughan at the NAC in Ottawa. Over his career he has recorded 7 indie solo albums as the Tony D Band and has had the opportunity to record with many other Canadian talents like Dutch Mason, David Wilcox and Suzie Vinnick. He has spent the last 15 years as the lead guitarist for the Juno and Maple Blues award winning band MonkeyJunk. In 2020 Tony released, SPEAK NO EVIL, a compilation of instrumentals that span his career. His latest project is a full length album of new material slated for release on Cordova Bay Records on November 1, 2024.
