Genre: Rockabilly/Punk/Rock

This 50’s style band from Edmonton, Alberta is raising the back alley pubs and dive bars from out of their dark deep rooted areas and bringing some crazy energetic knee slapping sounds to your stereo system “every year”.

This album by Raygun Cowboys entitled The Cowboy Code is definitely a must have. The track list on this album is full of great instrumentals and high energy trumpets! These are my favourite tracks on the album:

“Storm Brewing” is a true Canadian song. All about the reckless and unforgiving storms that are always brewing from the east coast of Canada to the west coast of Canada. It’s all about keeping your head above water and not drowning.

“Skitso Frame Of Mind” is a really energetic song with trumpets blazing and knee slapping spoons drumming to the beat. This track, I guess you can say truly wins my attention. It is after all, a Skitso world out there.

“It’s Coming Down” is about the element of surprise that are coming to your town with bombs all around and drums setting off the sounds. You better hide in your place because you know you won’t be safe from it. The guitarists playing and the chorus lines are catchy; they will get you singing along with them. It’s definitely a top notch song.

Inspirational Interviewer and Promotional music lover for artists.

Born in Kingston, I grew up with the likes of Dan Akroyd and his blues influence and also The Tragically Hip, plus live shows downtown in the streets and country bands in the pubs.

I love music in all forms and genres. I can adapt my ear to enjoy and appreciate all instrumentals and vocals. I started writing about certain artists that I grew up listening to and then I reached out to artists for interviews. I have done over 20 interviews with artists and CEOs of industry companies from all over the world.

Now, with Canadian Beats I have an opportunity to improve my journalistic abilities and to get the word out there for artists, and best of all to go to shows and get that personal feeling. I get to represent Canadian music on a higher level. We need to open more doors and have more shows and venues, as well as get the world to come to us. That is my goal.
