#FIRE 🔥You can't raise 4 boys without a few shenanigans! Nanny & Pop are what my parents were called to their grandkids. Here, I tell 2 of my granddaughters the story. #throwback #memories #winnipeg #childhood

We're heading out on tour soon! Here's a look back to Winnipeg where it all began for The Guess Who. #songwriter #musician #canada #theguesswho #foryou

This week’s #FridayFeeling #guitar post goes out to British rock band Cream and their iconic hit, “Sunshine of Your Love”. Written by Jack Bruce, Pete Brown & Eric Clapton, it was originally released on the album Disraeli Gears in November 1967, and as a single in January 1968.

It was wonderful to reconnect with Canada’s Ambassador to Japan, Ian McKay, and his lovely wife Miyuki in Tokyo last week. Ambassador McKay hosted the guitar exchange at the Canadian Embassy on Canada Day in 2022, when my stolen Gretsch was discovered here in Japan —

#MusicMonday Did you know The Guess Who once wrote jingles for Coca-Cola? In 1968, Toronto-based musician and jingle-writer Jack Richardson got involved with The Guess Who while he was with McCann-Erickson, the advertising agency for Coca-Cola. He said:

Valentine's Day is coming up, and we put together something for you! Let It Ride: Love Songs. Eleven tracks for Valentine's Day or any day you need a soundtrack. 💘🤘 Listen now: found.ee/bto-let-it-r...

Amarillo, TX, August 3rd, 2025. Beautiful moments on stage. Leave a comment if you saw us live this past summer! Can't wait to do it again soon. 📷: Laura Garcia

Continuing our gear chat, here I am with a Herzog unit. This was a two 12AX7 tube preamp invented by myself and Gar Gillies who built Garnet Amps in Winnipeg. This preamp with my ‘59 Les Paul into a Garnet Amp was the sound of American Woman. The result was called the “woman tone”.

#AskRandy You asked, we answered! The Garnet Herzog amp, how it created the legendary sound of The Guess Who songs "No Time" & "American Woman". My daughter Lorelei & son Briggs are on board for this post. Cheers! #roocknroll #gear amps guitarist @theguesswho

#RIP to Bob Weir of The Grateful Dead, who has left us for music heaven today.⚡️ In the mid-late 60's, I was in New York and went to a club in Greenwich village and saw The Dead play. They were new-ish and they were a jam band. When they'd go into a song, it wasn't the standard 3.5 minute radio tune

Let's talk #guitar pedals with my son, Briggs. We're weeding out and will show you a few of the sounds & #guitarists who used them. This one is the Ibanez Tube Screamer. #rocknroll #blowthisup #music Ibanez Guitars

Starting the year thinking about all the incredible moments we shared last year. As we step into 2026, we’d love to hear from you: what would you love to hear from BTO this year? 📷: Ace Plus Studios

#TBT: Winnipeg. Holiday pic of my little brother Gary and I, ages 2 & 3 1/2. My mum could knit anything! #family #Christmas #memories

At the end of this year and approaching 2026, I’m looking ahead at a busy year. The first half of 2026 with The Guess Who tour, and the fall tour with BTO. I’ll be rocking all year so come and see me playing the soundtrack of my life & yours. Looking back and remembering precious moments at gigs,

The holidays are officially here, and so is Takin’ Care of Christmas. Happy holidays, everyone. 🤘🎄

RIP Chris Rea who left us today. I’ve been a fan for decades. “Fool” is one of my favorite songs. I’ve seen him in concert many times. His voice is what l copied when I started my solo recordings. I bought his boxed set of vinyl celebrating and exploring the different blues genres.

Looking back at some of our favorite photos from the road this year! Which BTO song hit the hardest for you live in 2025? 📷: Jerry Hylan / Hylan Photography.

Here’s to the fans, the music, and the road ahead. Thank you 🙏

#AskRandy One of the most common questions I get asked as a #guitarist is "What should be my first #guitar?" The answer is what feels right. Go into a music store and try as many as you can. It's not 'one size fits all'.

Please take a moment to remember those who have fought to keep us free. Too often in travel, I see vets who are struggling for the things they need after defending their country. Without them, our lives would be very different.

That’s a wrap on the Roll On Down The Highway 2025 Tour! Closing out the run at the Riviera Theatre in North Tonawanda couldn’t have been better. Thank you to everyone who joined us this year, from the first show to the very last. You made every night special! #RollOnDownTheHighway2025

#AskRandy I've been asked about the glove I sometimes wear; is it for style or a hand issue? The glove is a Tommie Copper compression which eases pain and helps mobility. I've noticed a big difference in the cold when I'm playing outdoor shows. I have a bit of an issue with my thumb -

#MusicMonday In 2014, BTO was inducted into The Canadian Music Hall of Fame. It was great to be back in our hometown of Winnipeg with faces in the crowd that have followed us for decades. Here’s a behind the scenes clip of that night.
