The Sundre & District Allied Arts Society presents
Tom Phillips and the D.T.s
Friday, January 15, 2027
Doors 6 PM | Show 7 PM

An esteemed statesperson of the Calgary music scene, Phillips earned his laurels over decades. He recorded with Gordon Lightfoot’s band in Toronto before releasing several albums, both live and in studio, with his legendary long time honky-tonk band The Men of Constant Sorrow (MOCS). He also released an acoustic solo album, paid homage to Hank Williams on the Sorrow Bound project, and had revered blues artist Eric Bibb cover his touchstone tune, Ribbons and Bows, on one of his albums. Phillips has smashed his comfort zone with a daring, darling album of cover songs from punk and rock territory. He’s often found anchoring musical gatherings that celebrate the songs of Haggard, Dylan, Springsteen and Lightfoot. The evolution continues on his most recent work with the Difficult Transitions (D.T.s). The band formed serendipitously at bars and open stages, learning Phillips’ most recent songs onstage just in time for his last record.

This honky-tonk hero is joined by MOCS veteran Tim Leacock (The Co-Dependents), Thom Moon (Ian Tyson), and sisters Shaye and Sydney Zadravec, who will help translate Phillips’ songs into live performances that deliver musical delights which offer style without flash.

The Sundre & District Allied Arts Society is a registered non-profit with Alberta Corporate Affairs and registered charity with the Canada Revenue Agency.

The Sundre Music Series was established to bring arts and culture to the Sundre Community through live music, as each concert acts as a very small fundraiser for the facility.
