Lowest of the Low Presented by Market Hall PAC

In a bold effort to assert themselves as a balm for these uncertain times, Toronto's LOWEST OF THE LOW have decided to do the (almost) unthinkable: give the people what they want.
In order to observe the 35th anniversary of their infamous debut SHAKESPEARE MY BUTT..., the band will be performing the album in its entirety at the Market Hall Performing Arts Centre!
It’d certainly be easy for Lowest of The Low to rest on their laurels, content with their status as much-loved leading lights of the Canadian rock scene for over 30 years. The Toronto-based band was inducted into the Canadian Indie Rock Hall of Fame in 2008.
LOTL built a faithful following and a very full dance card on the strength of their joyous live shows, where they perfected their mix of clever wordplay, razor-sharp hooks and airtight harmonies. In 1996, 2000 and again in 2005, Chart Magazine honoured LOTL’s 1991 landmark debut album, Shakespeare My Butt, with spots in the top 10 of the Top 100 Canadian Albums of All Time. The debut became the best-selling independent release in Canadian history at the time. In 2008, Lowest of the Low was inducted into the Canadian Indie Rock Hall of Fame and earned Gold certification for Shakespeare My Butt.
Comprising of bassist Greg Smith (The Weakerthans) and guitarist/vocalist Michael McKenzie who have joined core members Ron Hawkins (vocals, guitars), Lawrence Nichols (guitars, vocals, harmonica, keyboards), and David Alexander (drums).
