The King Eddy

The King Eddy Live tunes, comfort food, and local brews from the historic heart of Calgary's East Village.
(290)

Established in 1905, the King Eddy has been a cornerstone of music, community, and culture for over a century in Calgary. The King Eddy was restored much like an artifact after being condemned in 2004, and today is building on its storied musical legacy.

Blues guitarist Amos Garrett and musician and historian John Rutherford reflect on the King Eddy's blues era when legends like Buddy Guy and Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown performed multi-night stints and became a part of the community.

For those fortunate enough to earn their trust, these blues masters would share their craft with anyone sincere, determined, and talented enough to learn.

Celebrate over 120 years of King Eddy history with NMC Presents: Eddy Fest, from Aug. 14-16, and honour every era of this legendary venueโ€™s story.
