This is Rob from the band Southbound, Ottawa's premier tribute to southern rock. If you aren't familiar with Southbound, we have been together for over 10 years entertaining audiences all around Ottawa and the
surrounding communities. We have opened for major acts like Pat Travers (Brass Monkey),
Honeymoon Suite/Trooper/Loverboy (Kemptville Live '18), David Wilcox/Kim Mitchell (Kemptville
Live '19), Killer Dwarfs (Brass Monkey), The Box (Brass Monkey), and played many annual
regional festivals (various Ribfests, Arnprior Fair, Merrickville Fairs, Brockville Fairs) and of course
most bars/restaurants in the area.
Would love to discuss setting a date to play your event!
