About

GLASS TIGER IN CONCERT:

Canadian rockers Glass Tiger are a fierce five-piece band that's been hammering out the hits since 1986, and they sound as fresh as ever nearly 30 years later. Lead singer Alan Frew still knows how to command the stage with his sharp, impeccable vocals and rich guitar strumming while his bandmates shred out solos on hits like "Someday" and "Don't Forget Me (When I'm Gone)". With their popular alt-rock tunes and on-point musicianship, Glass Tiger always brings the house down when they perform for eager ticket buyers on their can't-miss tours.

BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

The members of Glass Tiger – singer Alan Frew,  keyboard player Sam Reid, guitarist Al Connelly, bassist Wayne Parker, and drummer Michael Hanson – first got together in 1983 and performed under the name Tokyo. They earned their big break a year later playing for sold-out crowds as an opening act for Boy George and Culture Club on tour. They attracted attention from several labels at the shows, eventually signing to Capitol Records and changing their name to the current moniker. They earned widespread acclaim with their four-times platinum-selling debut Thin Red Line, which featured the smash hit "Don't Forget Me (When I'm Gone)" – a song that peaked at No. 1 on the Canadian Songs chart, earned the band three Juno Awards, and launched them to international stardom. Glass Tiger continued to enjoy success with their follow-up releases Diamond Sun (1988) and Simple Mission (1991), which they supported with extensive touring throughout their native Canada. After a hiatus that saw the band's members pursue various other projects, the group got back together in 2003 to perform local shows. Although the band has had a lineup change since reforming with new drummer Chris McNeill, Glass Tiger still knows how to rock a crowd and deliver a hit-filled live show.

    Glass Tiger Still Has it After All of These Years

    by Colin B on 12/14/23Grey Eagle Event Centre - Calgary

    Still belting out the hits and they added in a couple of holiday songs of their own. Such a positive message and I was able to reminisce about the "good ole days"

    Last minute ticket purchase and I'm so glad I did it. Lead singer (and 1 of the original 3 members still with the band) was so engaging with wonderful stories and appreciation for the audience. He had the entire crowd participating in sing-alongs. I have been to numerous concerts in my life and I have to say that this was one of the most enjoyable. Thank you Glass Tiger!

    An amazing concert with an intimate atmosphere. All the hits were played and Alan sounded amazing. Truly amazing. Can’t wait for GT to return again someday.

    Could have been much better

    by argera on 8/23/23

    The overall acoustics of the bands "The Spoons"and "A Flock of Seagulls"were awful. WAY too much bass and bass drum - I swear, I could feel the two instruments reverberating in my chest during their entire set. Also, the lineup was not in good order. "Men Without Hats"was an obvious fan favorite but were placed before "A Flock of Seagulls"(who immediately lost the crowd), and were given less show time than the latter band. Sitting through "A Flock of Seagulls"waiting for "Glass Tiger"in the cold with that intense bass was a form of torture.
