What do ya think? 😃
Yup, you read right. 2025… Worldwide!
It’s all starting to come together! There’s a crazy beehive of activity going on behind the scenes with the documentary, and work has been moving at an incredible pace. This is the culmination of over a decade of hard work. Everything is being meticulously prepped to make sure that it’s all as great as it possibly can be. Otherwise, for us it just isn’t worth doing…
In a couple of weeks we’ll be winging our way over to California for the first round of interviews and we are stoked! We don’t want to give anything away just yet, but we have some really awesome surprises in store for you! Trust me, it is gonna be worth the wait! Look for the next update in a month or so…
In the immortal words of William “Bill” S. Preston Esq. and Ted “Theodore” Logan… Be excellent to each other!
Merry Merry Peeps! Catch ya on the flip side…

I just wanted to say…
I saw Jeff play in Kitchener.. I was young and foolish. A stage rusher… Hahaha. I doused myself in the perfume ‘Lady'(Kenny Rogers) and got myself to center stage… I was mesmerized by Jeff and I knew he could smell me.. Then after the show I managed to get to the hallway where he was escorted through..I will never forget how he turned towards me, smiled and said “I smell ya”.. I almost fainted.. I miss him
Jeff was a true legend. I saw him play in Charlotte, NC in 1989. What an honor it was to see him play. “Angel Eyes’ is still on my curre t playlist. I will never forget him.
I’m so glad to hear this is being done. Saw Jeff at tiny Ziggys club in Winston Salem M. V. Was thrilled and will never forget that show
I been thinking alot about Jeff lately. And now a documentary coming out.I can’t wait to see it!!!!! If it’s out on DVD I’ll definitely own a copy for sure. See The Light is one of my favorite.
Angel Eyes was the song my wife and I danced to at our Wedding reception. It was our song. Love and miss Jeff. Can’t say I miss his music as that will continue to be a part of my musical life!!!
Oh if the wait would end soon, I’m counting the minutes until I see Jeff in the ring again.
Amazing human being!
I saw him many times at different venues. However my favorite was at his own club on Queen Street and Bathurst St.I went almost every Thursday, the day he played. Always! an amazing time, amazing musical guests,above all Always an extraordinary music!
Been waiting on this since you first announced it. Can’t wait. Hope the poster will be available to buy. Love it. Awesome job. Merry Christmas.
I was lucky enough to see Jeff live a couple of times in London over here in England. One time was in basement club The Borderline, where Queen drummer Roger Taylor was propping up the bar and enjoying the show.
I only got to see him 3 times but loved his music. I was a member of his fan club years ago and had See the Light on VHS. I just bought Live at Montreux and can’t wait to see this!
I saw him in 1981, Canada Day at the old Molson Park in Barrie. Stellar.
Saw him several times in the U.K. . The best being at the Town and Country in Leeds .
Absolute genius
Sadly, I only saw him once in Wolverhampton, UK 1994. The best.
I’ve really been looking forward to this documentary since it was first announced!!!!!
Jeff played locally to me in Poole many years ago.
Just before the gig, my daughter came home with chicken pocks.
Guess who’d never had it before?
Yep, you’ve guessed it, me!!!
For the show, I was wrapped up at home, and my wife took my daughter!
a thru Legend of Canadian ROCKnROLL… I loved him from his very young age and ENJOYED many of his GR8 Concerts
the band that i was drumming for opened up for Jeff in upstate New York, after his show , we shared some stories and plenty of laughs from the times him and my brother, Fran ( from The Fabulous Thunderbirds) had.
it was about 2:00 am at the club , and Jeff wanted to play me in pool, i said i would kick your ass, his wife laughed, walked us over to the pool table , Jeff kicked my ass in 2 games of pool . it was an honor to meet such a talented and wonderful person . your music lives on my friend.

Saw Jeff in Montreal in 1990 with Colin James.
My daughter’s first concert. She was 5.
I told her if she wanted to see him better, to use her Fisher Price binoculars.
A real storyteller and phenomenal musician.
Currently building a tribute black Stratocaster guitar I may name ‘Angel’.
Looking forward to the movie in ‘24.
saw him in auckland, nz.
My late husband Brad got me hooked on Jeff Healey band..I love Angel Eyes..he loved it too..and now i cry when i hear it..
I saw Jeff Healey and the band only once and it was so memorable. The irony for me was to see him, I a Canadian, had to travel to Point Roberts in Washington state to see him at The Breakers. As far as I know that was my one opportunity to see him live though there may have been other concerts I was unaware of.
I saw Jeff Healey and his band at the Middle Deck in Halifax; sitting at a table about 3′ from him; he was mesmerizing; him and his guitar were one; he is truly unforgettable; a Canadian treasure.
I was there too! Great show and I was up front. My older sister came with myself and my girlfriend and she got iD’d at the American border! They thought she was underage she was like 30!
I can’t wait. Jeff Healey’s music chained my life.
I absolutely cannot wait for this documentary. I started following Jeff in the 1980s. Saw him at Hammerjacks, in Baltimore when I was too young to get in But I wouldn’t let that stop me from seeing him play live. I’m a huge jazz fan and follower and I didn’t find out until too late that Jeff had the same passion. I only wish I got to see him play that live. Maybe it will be in the documentary. Here’s hoping! Thank you for bringing this to us.
Saw Jeff at Button South in Hallandale, Florida in late 1994. Just remembering what a huge talent he was… and trying to recall the date of show.
Hey Chris!
Unfortunately, when the JHB called it a day back in 2001 and their offices were shuttered, most of those touring records were lost… ~Rog
Saw Jeff at a place called California’s in Windsor Sunday December 17th 1995, What a memorable and wonderful night. The only time I saw him. Looking forward to all the upcoming material.
exciting! i work on a music based film fest.. would love to screen this.
