Watched Road to Rockstar on TV last, featuring the 6 contestants from Canada that make it to the final 50 in LA. Can't say I was impressed by any of them. One girl was God awful-- she sang Eye of the Tiger, and it was off key and screechy. I have no idea how she made it through, unless the rest of the auditions were William Hung bad. I don't think we'll see many Canucks this year. Certainly not winning based on what I saw last night. |

Well, this girl made it through.... | Jenny Galt: Jenny Galt has a sly way about her that manages to simultaneously evoke the (rocker) girl next door, an international woman of mystery and that ultra cool chick who always cranks the good tunes at the party. And then there's her music. Adept with gorgeous vocals, impressive piano work and guitar playing, the multi-faceted musician is a talent who rocks, pops and captivates.
Hailing from Montreal, Canada (not surprisingly, Neil Young is an influence), the 24 year old may be young but she's plenty experienced. She started singing at 6 and playing guitar at 16, and from there she never looked back, moving to Ottawa and then Australia where she performed solo. With her recently disbanded group, Cherrybomb, she's frequently toured Canada, performed on television and radio, recorded music for a popular film and television series and released four albums.
She currently lives in Vancouver, Canada, where she's becoming increasingly popular, ever artistic and just as musically diverse as ever. | ...and it doesn't specifically say, but it sounds like this guy might be a Canadian... | Lukas Rossi: Jeff Buckley meets Freddie Mercury? Though you probably never thought you'd hear such a unique merging, this is exactly how mega evocative, singer songwriter Lukas Rossi has been described.
The distinction has served him well during his 15 years in music. Lukas has recorded, written, produced and played with his own popular band Cleavage, as well as co-written, sung and gigged with various Canadian bands, including Papa Roach, I Mother and Big Wreck. He's also worked with producer and Rush guitarist Alex Lifeson, and Jay and John Levine from the Philosopher Kings and Prozac-just to name a few.
A notable, soulful standout all his own, Lukas also contributes vocal work for television and radio, singing on national ad campaigns and even an animated cartoon. His credentials, experience and finally, magnetism make for a performer as exceptional as he sounds. | | Jenny Galt: Jenny Galt has a sly way about her that manages to simultaneously evoke the (rocker) girl next door, an international woman of mystery and that ultra cool chick who always cranks the good tunes at the party.
