Book The Guess Who
The Guess Who started in Winnipeg, Manitoba, in 1958 and went on to become one of Canada's best-loved rock bands. They found their greatest success between 1969 and 1972 with songs including "American Woman," "These Eyes," "No Time," "No Sugar Tonight," "Laughing" and "Share the Land." The band took the Juno Award for group of the year in 1970 and 1971 and was nominated several more times, including for album of the year in 1975. Honors include induction into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame in 1987, a place on Canada's Walk of Fame in 2001 and a Governor General's Performing Arts Award in 2002. Their music blends melodic hard rock, pop and a touch of soul, with Burton Cummings' powerful voice and distinctive piano playing. The classic songs are loved by generations, and live shows are an energetic singalong.
