Riff Raff toured across Canada during the eighties before disbanding in 1989. In March of 1999, the band was invited to reunite for a one-off fundraiser performance. After thunderous crowd response, it was obvious that Riff Raff was back for good. In 2009, the band will be celebrating it's 20th anniversary!

Featuring original founding members Rory Lawford & Brian Kendall, alongside Brent Labbe and Dave Denowski, the band is a major draw on the best nightclub stages in Saskatchewan - including Saskatoon's Bud's on Broadway (with lineups as long as 40 minutes to get in). They are also in high demand for cabarets and festivals throughout Western Canada. In March 2005, reader's of Planet S Magazine, Saskatoon's popular lifestyle and entertainment publication, voted Riff Raff as one the Top 3 Best Local Bands in Saskatoon.

Riff Raff were handpicked to perform at Saskatchewan Place/Cedit Union Centre to perform in the Backstage Lounge for sold-out concerts by Aerosmith and Cheap Trick, Motley Crue, Def Leppard and Bryan Adams and more. They were one of the featured headliners at the BrierPatch- the official party of the 2004 Nokia Brier, and headlined the official wrap party of the Juno's in 2007. Riff Raff has also opened the show for The Sweet, Nazareth, April Wine, Harlequin, Prism Dr. Hook and Kenny Shields & Streetheart.

With a set full of classic hard rock hits from the late 70's & 80's and early 90’s, an unparraleled live show and powerful musical ability, Riff Raff is the top of the pack for live classic rock in Western Canada.
