William Prince’s On Rolls the Wheel Tour expands with the addition of a second leg of tour dates across Ontario in January, 2027. The On Rolls the Wheel Tour begins this November in Western Canada, with many shows nearing sell outs and new dates already added. Tickets for newly announced Ontario tour dates will be on sale to the public this Friday, September 25.
Pointed and poignant, William Prince has also released a new song, “Wide Open,” in honour of upcoming Orange Shirt Day/National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. On the new song, Prince’s country folk storytelling carries a powerful message to consider what is taken for granted, and what is never granted at all.
Listen to “Wide Open” here.
