Bands with American & Canadian members!

The Best American Classic Rock Bands thread prompted me to start this thread as a mention was made of The Band. There are many other cross-border bands that came to prominence in the 60's, 70's and later years as well, and not just in Classic Rock.

Off the top of my head I can think of several:

The Band
Buffalo Springfield
CSN&Y
The Mamas & The Papas
Steppenwolf
Blood, Sweat & Tears

What others can you add to this list?

 

The drummer for Strapping Young Lad was from Dallas, Texas while the band was Canadian. It's a lot easier now to have band members from different countries in band thanks to the internet.

Just an example, though not American/Canadian, is Kamelot:

Sean Tibbetts (Bass) - Tampa, Florida
Thomas Youngblood (Guitars) - USA
Casey Grillo (Drums) - Enid, Oklahoma
Oliver Palotai (Keyboard) - Germany
Tommy Karevik(vocals) - Sweden

 

Arcade Fire -- Win and Will Butler are American.
The Rascals -- Gene Cornish is from Canada originally.
New Pornographers -- Neko Case is American.

 

Hank Snow and his Rainbow Ranch Boys

 

Good one. YES!

 

Zal Yanofsky was Canadian and in the Lovin' Spoonful.

 

The Mynah Birds, a Canadian R&B band in the 60s (who famously also included Neil Young for a stint), had Rick James - an American - in the lineup.

 

The 80s "supergroup" Alias contained ex-Heart members Roger Fisher, Steve Fossen and and Mike DeRosier (all American), along with Canadians Freddy Curci and Steve DeMarchi (ex-Sheriff).

 

Cowboy metal band Grady consists of Gordie Johnson and Ben Richardson (both Canadians), along with an American drummer (originally Chris Layton).

 

The Wackers.

 

One more...

The band S.U.N. (Something Unto Nothing) contains lead singer Sass Jordan (Canadian), along with Americans Brian Tichy, Michael Devin and Tommy Stewart.

 

Hardly famous, but one of my favorite bands is The Blue Shadows from Vancouver, BC with lead vocalist Bill Cowsill from the USA:

 

Bob Egan of Blue Rodeo is American. The rest of the band is Canadian.

 

The James Gang had Domenic Troiano on guitar for a while.

 

Good thing you put "supergroup" in quotes

 

LOL

 

I guess we need to include Screamin' Ronnie Hawkins since we mentioned The band.

 

...and his Hawks

 

Original punk era punk band The Diodes: singer was American, bassist and drummer were Canadian. I'm not sure if ex-pat Brit guitarist John Catto was Canadian or still British. Certainly a homegrown Toronto band.

 

Heart

 

Oscar Peterson Trio:

 

Blood Sweat & Tears (David Clayton-Thomas)
Mountain (Corky Lane)
Sons of the Pioneers (Bob Nolan)

 

Sebastian Bach of Skid Row.

 

Will is my neighbour and he still has Missouri plates on his car.

 

Max Webster-Mike Tilka was/is from Indiana.
