David Celia & Co is gearing up for its next tour this spring throughout Europe, the UK, and Canada including shows at England’s Small World Festival (Kent) and Great Escape (Brighton). Together, they sing catchy, Canadiana style songs with 3-part Beatlesque/Byrds style harmonies plus open musical improvisations. Brantford drummer, Cliff Rutherford, will be joined by David’s two sons, Marcus and Lucas on acoustic guitar and bass. Opening the night will be the Marcus Celia Band in a singer-songwriter style, featuring Marcus’ band of Humber College All Stars: Sean Maiato, Ben McWebb and Adam Sims, freshly lauded with their Humber College Bachelor of Music degrees!

David Celia is an innovative singer/songwriter and astonishing guitar player, known for his spontaneously driven live performances. He tours frequently across Canada and Europe (Glastonbury Festival x7) and is described as “One of Toronto’s best guitar players” by CBC Radio. David’s music has consistently appeared on the CBC, BBC and WNYC in New York. Even the late Gordon Lightfoot was a fan: “I like the sentiment in your lyrics”. David’s reputation as a guitarist has led him to play with many local Canadian artists in their bands, including legendary Alt-Country/folk singers Ian & Sylvia Tyson and acts as diverse as Icelandic alt/pop star Emiliana Torrini. He’s supported shows for Elvis Costello, Badly Drawn Boy, Fairport Convention, Ron Sexsmith, Martha Wainwright, Kiefer Sutherland + more. He’s also had the pleasure of meeting and playing music with the late great Pete Seeger. Some recent career highlights include performing at the Glastonbury Festival and Trafalgar Square, London for Canada Day (2025).

The Marcus Celia Band is a Toronto based 4-piece alternative indie rock band, playing a wide variety of original music spanning from soft and playful plucky tunes to heavy rock songs. They are inspired by acts like Radiohead, Elliot Smith, The Beatles, Midlake and more. Thursday April 30.
