Kid Cudi’s career has been largely characterized by depression, addiction and death. From his 2009 hit, “Soundtrack 2 My Life”, to his open letter discussing suicidal urges in 2016, Cudi has always been open about his sadness, which exudes through many of his albums…
As we near the end of Donald J Trump‘s second year in office, it is chastening to hark back 15 years, half-way through an earlier Republican leader’s first term, to a time when it seemed impossible to imagine a US president more self-serving, ill-educated and unworthy of office…
This song fits perfectly into this playlist, because the songwriter turned his thoughts about life into this work. “Just Breathe” is performed by American rock band Pearl Jam, but the author is Eddie Vedder…
“The King of Rock”, Erkin Koray is one of the fathers of Turkish psychedelic rock music. He is one of the three legends of the genre. The others are Barış Manço and Cem Karaca. He has a great voice and unique guitar skills but also he is an inventor,…

Adam Gregory is from my home of Edmonton, Alberta. I have been lucky enough to work with him a number of times and have gotten to know his family quite well. Adam is as you see, a great guy that cares about others. There is a reason he was awarded the Slaight Music Humanitarian Award at the 2013 Canadian Country Music Awards…
Rob Garza and Eric Hilton are Thievery Corporation, often working with other artists to produce the dream for the song into reality, in this case the vocals are by Emiliana Torrini…
I just finished working with Annika and Bryton, Leaving Thomas and they have recently become an independent duo. As a Canadian in the music business, I had heard of them but only recently had we met. Their tune Blame It On The Neon is a classic country crooning, crying tune.
