Paul Langlois on The Tragically Hip, Cottage Country & Smooth Rock Falls

For generations of Canadians, The Tragically Hip became more than a band. They became campfire songs at the cottage. Road trip soundtracks. Hockey arena anthems. And part of the fabric of Canadian life itself. On this episode of Boats, Beers & Backroads, Jamie Allison sits down with Paul Langlois of The Tragically Hip for a conversation about music, memory, creativity, and Canada. Paul reflects on the band’s early days playing Kingston pubs and basements, the chemistry that made The Hip special, and how the songwriting process evolved over decades together. He shares stories about cottage life, fishing from his pontoon boat, favorite Ontario backroads, and how surreal it feels knowing Hip songs became part of so many Canadian summers and campfire moments. The conversation also explores Paul’s solo work, including his latest release Smooth Rock Falls—an album shaped by family, loss, reflection, and rediscovering creativity after The Hip. In this episode: * The early Kingston pub days and building The Tragically Hip * How the band’s songwriting evolved over time * Why Hip songs became tied to Canadian identity * Cottage life, fishing, and Ontario backroads * Writing and recording Smooth Rock Falls * Touring again * Reflections on the final Kingston concert * What still inspires Paul creatively today This episode feels like a long conversation around a Canadian campfire—with stories, music, nostalgia, and a deep appreciation for country living. šŸŽ§ Listen or watch now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and YouTube. https://linktr.ee/BoatsBeersandBackroads @boatsbeersandbackroads Follow Paul on Instagram @paullangloismusic The Tragically Hip @thetragicallyhip
