Willie P Bennett was an important part of the 1970s folk music scene in Canada, alongside figures such as Bruce Cockburn and Stan Rogers, and moved to Peterborough in the late 90s. In 1996,  Blackie and the Rodeo Kings, a group named for Bennett's 1978 album, was formed to record a tribute album of Bennett's songs. Bennett's first subsequent album of new material, Heartstrings, won a Juno Award for Best Folk Music Recording.
