Thank you - merci to everyone that has made NMC a success over the past decade. We built it, together! 🙌🏼 Happy Canada Day! Bonne Fête du Canada 🇨🇦
Thousands of you showed up to celebrate 10 years of #StudioBell, home of the National Music Centre – and made it a #CanadaDay to remember. 🥳🇨🇦
A massive thanks to @atbfinancial, the Government of Canada, @SOCANFoundation, Bell, and Neil Zee Photo Corp. for making this event possible.
The next chapter of Studio Bell’s story starts now.

Tough one? Choosing today on the spot, it would be “Wild Billy’s Circus Story” but I might feel different about it tomorrow. @springsteen
Masterpiece with some of Springsteen’s most beautiful songs. Released today 50 years ago. What’s your favorite song from this album?
Mine is NYC Serenade, followed closely by Incident on 57th Street.
