Story summary

On September 27, 2026, Toronto's indie music scene mainstay Leslie Feist and Kingston alt-rock legends the Tragically Hip were inducted into the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame at Toronto’s Massey Hall. The ceremony also honored Loverboy songwriting partners Mike Reno and Paul Dean, along with Quebec pop singer-songwriter Roch Voisine. Performers included Wilco's Jeff Tweedy and Los Angeles songwriter-producer Finneas, who paid tribute to Feist by performing her music and inducting her into the hall of fame. The Tragically Hip’s induction was particularly emotional, as guitarist Rob Baker read a message from the late Gord Downie, reflecting on their bandmate’s legacy and contributions to Canadian rock music.
