The FirstOntario Performing Arts Centre presents The Trews in St. Catharines Thursday, February 22.
The Trews will be playing their platinum selling debut album House of Ill Fame in its entirety plus other hits and fan favourites from their catalogue of music.
Originally from Halifax, and emerging out of Hamilton, Ontario in the early 2000s, hard rock combo the Trews earned a reputation as one of Canada’s hardest-working bands, notching hundreds of shows a year and breaking through to the mainstream with the 2003 Juno-nominated hit single “Not Ready to Go” from their gold-certified debut album House of Ill Fame. A hooky mix of alt-rock edge and melodic, riffy swagger, the quartet became a chart staple, earning accolades and legions of fans with albums like 2005’s Den of Thieves and 2014’s eponymous release. Following a 2016 retrospective release, the band returned in 2018 with their high-energy sixth album Civilianaires and again in 2021 with the acclaimed album, Wanderer. The Trews are known as one of Canada’s best touring rock bands.
