Gord Bamford continues to work toward delivering the best in country music. With 22 Top-10 singles in Canada, including the #1 smash hit 'When Your Lips Are So Close' from Gord's 6th studio album “Country Junkie” Gord has a deep history of creating the songs that country music fans want to hear. 2018’s Neon Smoke continues Gord's prolific song writing. The albums debut single, 2017’s summer anthem “Livin’ On Summertime”, broke the Top 10 on the Canadian Country music charts. The follow up single “Ain’t It Grand” saw Gord Bamford joining Blue Rodeo’s charismatic frontman Jim Cuddy to duet on this catchy, fun and ultra-Canadian gem. “Ain’t it Grand” debuted on the 2017 CCMA Award’s on September 10th, in Saskatoon and is currently racing up the country radio charts. Fans can catch new songs from Neon Smoke performed on the tour.

Gord Bamford stands as one of the most decorated artists in Canadian country music history. No stranger to praise Bamford has amassed an impressive 24 Canadian Country Music Association (CCMA) awards, multi-Canadian JUNO Award nominations and is the two-time winner (2013/2015) of Nashville’s Country Music Association “CMA Global Country Artist” award.

He has spent the better part of the last 20 years honing his craft, working to get where he is today. Bamford’s eighth studio album Neon Smoke is set to be released in early 2018 and followshis 7th release, 2016’s Tin Roof, the winner of the 2016 CCMA Album of The Year and nominated for the 2016 JUNO “Country Album of The Year” award. Tin Roof follows the JUNO Nominated 2013 release Country Junkie.
