Information/Write-up

The Travellers were formed by friends who met at a Jewish socialist summer camp and who were united by their love of music and belief in social reform. They were mentored and encouraged by folk legend Pete Seeger. The Travellers’ songs cemented cultural unity across a young, sprawling country.

The Travellers defined the spirit of our country long before Canadian travellers wore flags sewn proudly on their backpacks. Since their immense popularity in the 1960s, they've remained an influence on many Canadian musicians.

Simone Johnston: vocals
Joe Lawrence: bass guitar
Jerry Gray: lead vocals, banjo
Ray Woodley: 12 string guitar
