Jesse Roper - early show

Jesse Roper & his bandmates, the Pretty Good Band, return to Festival Hall on December 3rd, 2026
This Toronto-based troubadour crafts big-hearted indie-folk songs for dreamers, wanderers and hopeless romantics. From fingerpicked confessionals to foot-stomping, full-band singalongs, his recent album Nomad captures his spirit. It’s rooted in the restless beauty of “inbetween-ness,” with Muirhead’s reflections on heartbreak, wanderlust, homesickness, nostalgia and self-discovery. As he says “These in-betweens are where we ask big questions and begin to really understand ourselves.’
Sarah Vanderzon opens the show. The arrival of her new EP, Fortune Teller, and its riveting first single "Are You With Me?," introduces a fresh, insightful and enjoyable new voice in the annals of Americana, folk and country.
