(Niagara Falls, ON) April 8, 2025 – Summer continues to sizzle at the OLG Stage at Fallsview Casino with two more performances added to our summer lineup. Multi-platinum rockers Gin Blossoms are heading back to the stage on July 23, as fans can once again hear their signature alternative rock anthems in Niagara Falls. Then, on August 9, R&B legends The O’Jays will deliver their timeless hits for one final time as they embark on the Love Train The Final Tour. Tickets for both performances go on sale Friday, April 11 at 10:00am through ticketmaster.ca.
“From the alternative rock anthems of Gin Blossoms to the soulful legacy of The O’Jays, these performances are a perfect addition to our exciting summer lineup, offering fans incredible live music experiences,” said Cathy Price, Vice President of Marketing and Resort Operations at Niagara Casinos.
Gin Blossoms became local legends in Tempe, Arizona, in the late 80s, with their jangle-pop sound evolving during the rise of grunge and hair bands. Their breakthrough album New Miserable Experience produced chart-topping hits like “Hey Jealousy,” “Allison Road,” and “Found Out About You,” selling over 5 million copies.“Til I Hear It From You” and “Follow You Down” solidified their success, with the former spending six weeks as Canada’s #1 hit. After a brief hiatus in the early 2000s, the band reunited in 2001 and quickly became one of the busiest touring acts. Their 2006 album Major Lodge Victory earned rave reviews and chart success, followed by the release of No Chocolate Cake in 2010. Still going strong, Gin Blossoms have sold over 10 million records and continue to perform to passionate crowds. With their blend of pop, rock, folk, and country, they remain one of the most in-demand live bands from the 90s. Fans can expect new material as the band continues to thrive well into their third decade.
Legendary R&B icons The O’Jays will bring over 60 years of electrifying performances to the stage as they embark on their final tour. Featuring original members Eddie Levert Sr. and Walter Williams Sr., who have been performing together since childhood, The O’Jays helped define the “Sound of Philadelphia.” Their chart-topping hits like “Backstabbers,” “Love Train,” and “For the Love of Money” are timeless classics that shaped generations. With 10 Gold albums, 9 Platinum albums, and 10 #1 hits, their legacy is solidified.
Inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2005, the Vocal Group Hall of Fame in 2005, and awarded BET’s Lifetime Achievement Award in 2009, The O’Jays’ influence on R&B is undeniable. Their final tour promises to be a celebration of a remarkable career that has made the Love Train an enduring force in music.
