Ontario Pink Floyd Tribute Band: Summer & Fall Show Schedule Announced

Floydium, Canada's premiere Pink Floyd cover band, has announced new shows this summer and fall.
Kawartha Lakes, Canada, May 30, 2025 -- This new announcement arrives in the runup to the band's performance at the 50th Anniversary Tribute show, set to take place in Hamilton, ON on June 28th. The newly announced dates will follow this performance, carrying the band through the summer and into autumn as they make their way across the province.

In the years since its formation, Floydium has sought to carry on the psychedelic legacy of Pink Floyd in the most authentic way possible, performing in front of audiences across Canada. Harnessing the unique talents of its many members, the band emulates and iterates on the rich sonic landscapes that made the original Pink Floyd so memorable and influential.
Taking on the monumental task of recreating the expressive, innovative guitar work pioneered by Syd Barrett and David Gilmour, Floydium members Joseph Pilonen and Leon Dadoun shoulder the burden together. While both accomplished musicians in their own right, they have developed a collaborative playing style that covers the entirety of Pink Floyd's diverse musical spectrum.

Likewise, standing in at once for Barrett, Gilmour, and the seminal Roger Waters on vocals, the band is fronted by a long-time staple in the Canadian music scene, Kyle Layton Thomas. While he just recently set out on a solo endeavor, Thomas remains committed to the cause of bringing the work of this classic band to life once again.
He is assisted on the microphone by the equally pedigreed James Naro, whose career has seen him sharing the stage with some of the most talented artists in North America.
This lineup is backed by an ensemble of local talent, including music educator Jenn Kee, singer-songwriter Jennifer Foster, drummer Greg Wilkinson, bassist Keiko Gutierrez, keyboardist Joel Dalton, and saxophonist Lucas Durand. Together, the group emulates the many nuances that drive the emotional core of Pink Floyd's music, be it the bass-driven lament of 'Money', or the soaring melancholy ballad that is 'Comfortably Numb'.
Those interested in seeing the act live will be able to do so in June at the 50th Anniversary Tribute in Hamilton, in September in Meaford and Brantford, ON, and on several dates throughout the month of November. A full tour schedule can be found on their website, or on their Facebook page at the link below.

London Knights beat Medicine Hat Tigers 4-1 for 3rd Memorial Cup title

RIMOUSKI, Quebec — Philadelphia Flyers prospect Denver Barkey scored twice in the second period and the London Knights beat the Medicine Hat Tigers 4-1 on Saturday night for their third Memorial Cup title. Jacob Julien and Easton Cowan also scored and Austin Elliott made 31 saves to help the Ontario Hockey League champion Knights win the junior hockey championship a year after losing in the final to host Saginaw. 'This is something I'll never forget,' said Barkey, London's captain. 'We worked all year toward this, and this is the tightest team I've ever played on. To be able to do it with these guys. It's so surreal. Going to remember this for life.' After a 3-1 loss to Western Hockey League champion Medicine Hat on Tuesday night in round-robin play, London beat Moncton 5-2 on Friday night in the semifinal game to set up the rematch with the Tigers. London also won the Memorial Cup in 2005 and 2016. The Knights are owned by former NHL players Dale and Mark Hunter and Basil McRae, with Dale Hunter serving as president and coach and Mark Hunter as general manager. Dale Hunter won his third title to match former Kamloops and Vancouver coach Don Hay's record. 'It's an empty feeling when you go home with nothing,' Dale Hunter said. 'When you come to this tournament, you had a good year, but when you don't win the last game, it's not successful.' Medicine Hat star Gavin McKenna spoiled Elliott's shutout bid early in the third period, and Harrison Meneghin stopped 20 shots for the Tigers. They won the Memorial Cup in 1987 and 1988. 'They cared, they tried,' Tigers coach Willie Desjardins said. 'Coming in, we only have one problem, that's London's a really good hockey team. It wasn't that we didn't want it, wasn't that we didn't try. They're just a good team.' Julien opened the scoring midway through the first period. Cowan, a first-round pick by Toronto, and Barkey scored in a 1:40 span early in the second and Barkey made it 4-0 on a power play with 7:52 left in the period. ___ AP sports:

'My dad was in the band for years and years and I wanted to join. We have some really great crowds here.'

Advertisement The 19-year-old forward put up passes and created scoring chances, but none could be finished into the back of the net. He tried to get something going during his shift in Medicine Hat's first and most promising-looking power play, but that too faltered. The Calgary native will end his Memorial Cup campaign with one assist. Two days ago, the Knights knocked out fellow Flames prospect Etienne Morin and the QMJHL champions Moncton Wildcats. It was reported from Logan Gordon that Flames assistant GM Brad Pascall plans on having Morin on the Flames' AHL affiliate team, the Wranglers next season. Similar plans are being discussed for Basha. Tweet from Logan Gordon regarding the futures of Flames prospects Etienne Morin, Andrew Basha and Matvei Gridin (@Fan960Logan) It should be interesting.
