SKF NOTE: With the passing of the great songwriter Gordon Lightfoot, his longstanding band members wondered, “Now what?”
Friend and drummer Barry Keane, in this interview, shares the story of Lightfoot’s band picking up the pieces and becoming The Lightfoot Band. Carrying on the classic songs of Gordon Lightfoot.
It was, and is, not an easy transition. Gordon was “the leader,” says Keane. How do you go forward when your leader is gone?
Added to the musical challenges, Lightfoot’s passing also meant the loss of much of the group’s administrative and logistical support.
So, in many ways The Lightfoot Band is starting over. In this interview, Barry Keane tells that story here.
