MAIN STREET REVIVAL

Main Street Revival is an Ottawa-based band that breathes new life into the timeless sounds of Americana and Roots-Rock. They stand as torchbearers of a sound that’s both classic and fresh, weaving together the musical influences of their predecessors with the rich narrative tradition of Canada’s greatest storytellers. Their music is a revival not just of a sound, but of a spirit—one that celebrates the enduring power of words, music, and the shared human experience.

 

In August 2024, MSR put out their second full length album, 'Another Harvest Done', their most ambitious release to date. It was recorded mostly live off the floor at Little Bullhorn Productions over two weekends in March 2024. The songs capture the spirit of a land that is as unforgiving as it is inspiring. A tapestry of love, loss, and the passage of time.

 

Over the past few years, MSR has had the opportunity to open for Canadian legendary acts such as April Wine, I Mother Earth, Sue Foley and David Wilcox as a result of their energetic and engaging performances. Following their self-titled debut released in November 2019, the band followed up with ‘Revive Yerself’ (EP) in 2021 and ‘Canada Band’ (EP) in 2023.

 

'What I've heard so far really showcases the band's dynamic sound and wide appeal!  If you're a fan of Nathaniel Rateliff, Tom Petty, or having a bevvy by the campfire, you'll love these guys!'
