Rick Fines: Bluesman Comes Back Home

Rick Fines: Bluesman Comes Back Home

Friday, February 20 • 8:00 PM
The Historic Market Hall

Rick Fines has spent decades carving his place as one of Canada’s most authentic voices in roots and blues. With three Juno nominations, Maple Blues Awards, and international songwriting honours, he’s the kind of artist who doesn’t just play songs—he lives inside them. His warm, soulful guitar work and straight-from-the-heart lyrics make every performance feel like you’re sitting in the room with an old friend telling you the truth.

A Peterborough native through and through, Fines played a sold-out “Farewell For Now” concert in June 2024 before packing his bags for Germany, where he’s set to spend the next few years. But the blues has a funny way of pulling people back home, and Rick’s return to Market Hall promises to be one of those nights where the music feels both familiar and brand new.

This isn’t just another gig—it’s a homecoming. A reminder of why Rick Fines matters, why the blues still speaks, and why you’ll want to be there when he picks up the guitar and lets it all out.
