Tomatoes Tried To Kill Me But Banjos Saved My Life (18+ ONLY)

When faced with a deadly cancer battle, his musical pursuit took him on a journey that became the key to saving his life. Told through authentic storytelling, heartfelt humour and music, Keith’s story is an uplifting tale of challenge, triumph, and the the healing power of the arts and music. Tomatoes Tried to Kill Me But Banjos Saved My Life isn’t just a show, it’s a cause. A heartfelt passion project that began as a nudge after Keith Alessi’s life took a major turn, it has been his mission to raise money for causes close to his heart. The show has raised over $1.3 million to communities and charities. Proceeds will make it possible for additional programming next season for our BRAVO Youth Access Program.
