iNSPIRATION FRIDAYS - FOXFIRE Forest & Hey OCEAN

Toronto, Ontario - April 24, 2009 - So a continuation of yesterday's inspiration Friday we ended up at the Horse Shoe Tavern that night to catch Hey Ocean!'s last performance with Spiral Beach. Amazingly enough, they had a band on before call FOXFIRE Forest which was unbelievably as well. Check out the video for the song California by Hey Ocean!

New Fiona Apple



Toronto, Ontario - April 10, 2009 - If you haven't heard of this artist yet this is a purely amazing intro to her. Fiona Apple, born in New York City broke into the music industry in 1994 when executive Andy Slater from Sony Music caught attention to her deep rooted Jazzy Alternative Rock poetic melodies that seemed to flow so effortlessly.

This song, "Why try to Change me now" is featured on the 2009 US album "Then was Then, and Now is Now" - A tribute to Cy Coleman. It's a 6 track compilation that features many other great artists like Patty Griffin & Missy Higgins.

Alex Cuba

Toronto, Ontario - April 9, 2009 - A while back, my Dad introduced me to a great talent. Alex Cuba (Yes, born in Cuba, raised in Canada) holds an ultra cool vibe that he's been exposing to the world. Alex Cuba's trademark sugarcane-sweet melodies, pop-soul hooks and rock chords give us a look into what Cuban music is to him. Recently, Alex collaborated with canadian band Blue Rodeo on one of their classics, Bad Timing. Unfortunately, I have searched HIGH and LOW for a video of this song, because it is truly beautiful hearing the spanish interpretation of the song. The only way i found it is through iTUNES. I highly recommend you download it, trust me, you won't be dissapointed in this one.

You can also catch Alex Cuba performing live at the Mod Club Friday May 1st.
