Courage & Patience & Grit is a DVD/CD set released by the band Great Big Sea on November 14, 2006. It contains video of the live performance from a concert at the Empire Theatre in Belleville, Ontario along with music videos for the songs "Captain Kidd", "When I Am King", "Lukey", and "Shines Right Through Me". The live performance was recorded during their The Hard and the Easy tour.
Since the first days of Great Big Sea, back in the spring of 1993, the Newfoundland based band has wanted to make a live album. Known across the country for their incendiary and powerful performances, their recent tour provided the perfect opportunity to do so. The result is an unusual live document of a band in love with traveling, their music, and the excitement of standing on stage in front of a crowd.
Bob Hallett is a Canadian musician, author, television producer and entrepreneur. He is best known as a founding member of the folk group Great Big Sea.
