Get ready to dance, sing and relive the golden age of synth-pop and New Wave as two legendary Canadian bands, Men Without Hats and Spoons, bring the ultimate retro party to the Drill Hall.

MEN WITHOUT HATS
With unforgettable hits like “The Safety Dance” and “Pop Goes the World,” Men Without Hats have been soundtracking good times for decades. Fresh off two new albums, the band is firing on all cylinders.

Led by frontman Ivan Doroschuk, alongside Sahara Doroschuk – Sloan (keyboards, vocals), Sho Murray (guitar), and veteran drummer Adrian White, this dynamic lineup brings high-octane energy, impeccable musicianship, and pure joy to every performance. Audience reactions say it all—“Incredible,” “Brilliant,” “Kick-ass!” Expect a night of nonstop fun, unforgettable tunes, and yes… plenty of safe dancing!

SPOONS
Formed in 1980, an intrepid young band from Burlington, Ontario would soon make “Spoons” a different kind of household word. They would help define the sound of pop and New Wave in the 80’s with hits like “Nova Heart“, “Romantic Traffic“, “Old Emotions“, and “Tell No Lies“.

Their album Arias & Symphonies would go on to be named one of the “20 Most Influential Albums of the 80s” by The Chart Magazine and their song “Nova Heart” would be included in Bob Mersereau’s book The Top 100 Canadian Singles of All Time.”

Not bad for a bunch of kids from Burlington, Ontario.

Gord Deppe and Sandy Horne, along with drummer Chris McNeill and keyboardist Scott Macdonald, continue to perform to this day, with no end in sight for the retro 80s phenomenon. Recently they celebrated their 40th anniversary with the repeatable compilation album and Echoes, a collection of re-recordings of their songs by other 80s artists from around the globe. “Truly one of our proudest achievements ever,” according Gord Deppe.

The retro 80s movement shows no sign of slowing down. Not one bit. And as far as Sandy, Gord and a lot of fans are concerned, that is a very good thing indeed.
