"T" is for The Tragically Hip
The Tragically Hip have been called “the most Canadian band in the world” by the BBC. The New York Times described them as “the band that for many has come closest to defining Canada’s cultural identity.” Between 1987 and 2016, they cemented themselves as the most popular Canadian band ever.
Gord Sinclair (bass guitar) and Johnny Fay (drums) grew up across the street from each other and have been best friends since they were infants. They met Gord Downie (vocals) and Rob Baker (lead guitar) during high school in Kingston, Ontario. They formed the Tragically Hip in 1983 with saxophonist Davis Manning. In 1986, Manning left the band and was replaced by Paul Langlois (rhythm guitar).
The group’s name is derived from a skit in the 1981 Michael Nesmith comedy Elephant Parts, in which a character exclaims, “Send some money to the foundation for the tragically hip.”
L&A will always be known for Gord Downie, who resided in a house along Hwy 33 Loyalist Parkway. That house became the recording studio and today is known as The Bathouse Recording Studio. If you go to GC2Y48G - Where Records are made, across the street is the house I am speaking of.
