Saskatoon’s The Sheepdogs have been crafting driving 70’s FM rock for a full decade now, with a growing reputation as one of this country’s best live bands. Touring behind 2015’s Future Nostalgia LP, the band brought their good time RN’R to a sold-out crowd at Montreal’s Corona Theatre on Friday, with support by Montreal’s own masters of shred, Beat Cops.

The show marked the opening night of a Canadian tour with both bands, who share an unabashed love of classic 70’s rock, complete with an avalanche of riffs and G.E. Smith face-inducing guitar solos. You can stream the Beat Cops record in full below.
