“Sundown,” “If You Could Read My Mind,” “The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald,” and “Early Morning Rain” are just a few of the countless hits Gordon Lightfoot has written and sung in his decades-long career. This iconic Canadian singer-songwriter and winner of 15 Juno Awards will be here in just a couple of weeks.
Afie Jurvanen, who performs as Bahamas, sent out a message in his January/18 LP release, Earthtones: “If there was now an opportunity for me to reach out to him, I’d say ‘You’re an asshole, but I love you anyway.’ And we can build on that,” he told Exclaim!
The song in question, “Bad Boys Need Love Too,” is a message to his father, who didn’t participate in Jurvanan’s youth. Now a father himself, Jurvanan understands even more so how important a father is to his children.
Jeremy Fisher, a two-time Juno Award nominee for adult music, became a first-time father in early 2016, and the child-sized guitar that hangs in his kitchen became a go-to for soothing a fussy baby or entertaining a bunch of kids on a play date. Soon this grew into turning everyday events into musical adventures.
“There is a constant soundtrack going on in my head, it’s been that way since I was a kid,” says Fisher, “and when I found myself spending long days with my young daughter before she could speak, I started to vocalize these sounds to narrate what we were doing.”
What a way to start 2019: With a hot night of electrifying dancing from your favourite Dancing with the Stars dancers. Here’s the cast!
Hayley Erbert danced on season 10 of So You Think You Can Dance and with the 2014 and 2015 Move Live On Tour, starring Derek and Julianne Hough. She’s been featured since season 21 as a troupe dancer on DWTS. She mentored Kamercon Couch and partner Hudson West on DWTS: Juniors.
It’s been almost a year to date since Stone Temple Pilots unveiled their new lead singer, Jeff Gutt, at the Troubadour in Los Angeles. After two iconic lead singers whose lives ended tragically, the new front man would have big shoes to fill. The search for Gutt, though, was thankfully anything but tragic.
Stone Temple Pilots had begun an online search roughly a year before they announced Gutt’s name that was progressing rather poorly: The musicians had spent over 100 hours reviewing submissions before they had chanced upon their future lead singer, according to The Advocate. The person had a tall order to fill, though: STP didn’t want someone who could just sing: they needed a collaborator, someone who could also write with them and work alongside the iconic group in the studio.
