Brantford – The legendary musician and recent Order of Canada recipient Ronnie Hawkins has seen more, done more and performed more than just about anyone else in Canada for six decades. Originally from Arkansas, he started off touring in Ontario in the 50’s with his band calling themselves Rompin’ Ronnie Hawkins and The Hawks. In 1959 he settled in Hamilton and then Toronto and replaced The Hawks with Ontario musicians who later would be known as The Band. He is a mentor to many well-known Canadian musicians and many of them went on to have amazing careers.
