Alan Doyle on Tour
In 2019, Alan Doyle released the single "We Don't Wanna Go Home," a duet with B.C. country star Dean Brody. It's a title that perfectly sums up Doyle's career on the road. As frontman for Canadian roots-rock institution Great Big Sea, he spread the beery good cheer from coast to coast and beyond for the better part of 20 years, and since that band's dissolution in 2013, he's continued to live up to his well-earned road-warrior reputation as a solo artist. Backed by his reliable support crew The Beautiful Beautiful Band, Doyle delivers a healthy serving of Great Big Sea classics and selections from his three solo albums to date: Boy On Bridge (2012), So Let's Go (2015) and A Week at the Warehouse (2017). An Alan Doyle show is both an occasion to have a good time and to support a good cause — he's known to donate proceeds from ticket sales to mental-health and addiction-treatment organizations.
Alan Doyle in Concert
As a singer/guitarist for the rambunctious roots combo Great Big Sea, Alan Doyle helped transform the Newfoundland band from regional pub phenomenon into one of Canada's most successful and celebrated bands. Between their 1993 formation and 2013 dissolution, the group racked up seven Top 10 placements and 11 Juno Award nominations. And since launching his solo career with 2012's Boy on Bridge, he hasn't relented in his lifelong mission to deliver joyously anthemic, pint-sloshing, Celtic-kissed singalongs. But Doyle's musical pursuits have run parallel to an eclectic acting career that includes credits in such films as Winter's Tale and Ridley Scott's Robin Hood. (Fittingly, he's developed an ongoing creative partnership with another singing actor, Russell Crowe, who invited Doyle to write for his 2005 album, My Hand, My Heart, leading to a full-album collaboration between the two, The Crowe/Doyle Songbook, Vol. III, in 2011.) Doyle's myriad achievements earned him entry into the Order of Canada in 2017, and he's reflected upon his charmed life in two bestselling memoirs, Where I Belong (2014) and A Newfoundlander in Canada (2018).
The view is great from everywhere at L’Olympia. Alan Doyle delivers a performance that will keep you off your feet all night. Adam Baldwin’s the man to watch, such talent! Another great evening at one of my favorite venue.

As usual, Alan Doyle and his band gave the audience the best time ever. They were on fire. Audience participation was over the top. Not one, but several Standing ovations. It was worth every cent. Adam Baldwin, the guest singer, was a delightful surprise.

Alan Doyle and his band put on an incredible, high-energy show good for all ages! I have seen him 4 times now over the years, and he just keeps getting better.
From start to finish one of the best concerts we’ve been to in a long time . The music was amazing ,the stories were funny and heart warming and Alan Doyle is an incredible showman and human being .I felt like we were at at kitchen party like when we were in Nfld . GBS was my daughters first concert at 3 and at 20,she rocked out to Alan Doyle again .Can’t wait for the next show .
We’ve seen Alan Doyle on three occasions. He just keeps getting better! The musicians in the band, and the opening act, Adam Baldwin, were incredible! A wonderful concert!
Musically it was as great as ever! The lighting designer needs to sit at the back of the amphitheatre to experience the unpleasantness of those lights around the stage on the floor shining out at the audience. It was headache-inducing and also meant that the band and the headliner were backlit, so mostly we saw silhouettes. A+ for Alan and the beautiful band, F for lighting.
Alan Doyle and his band were fantastic! Great energy, heartfelt storytelling. What a kitchen party!
Great show. Everyone is so talented. Great kitchen party.
What a great show. Excellent sound, lighting and overall experience. Likely one of the top 5 shows we’ve seen and the place was packed with everyone on their feet. So glad we went Thoroughly enjoyed and highly recommended.
