Pat Benatar

Her first single Heartbreaker was released in 1979; it was an immediate hit along with her debut album In the Heat of the Night, reaching #12 and establishing Benatar as a new force in rock. In 1980, Benatar released her second album, Crimes of Passion, featuring her signature song Hit Me with Your Best Shot which was her first single to break the U.S. Top 10 and eventually sold more than four million copies in the U.S. alone. The album reached U.S. #2 in January 1981 and a month later, Benatar won her first Grammy Award for ‘Best Female Rock Vocal Performance’ of 1980.

Some things are just meant to be. Birds are born to fly, politicians were born to lie, big fat guys with giant beards were born to ride their machines without getting hassled by the man, and Carolyn Mark was born to make music.

Jill Barber
If you believe they don't write songs like they used to, here is new hope for old romantics. On her new album Chances, Canadian chanteuse Jill Barber picks up the torch where the golden age of music left off. Stepping away from her folkier past, Jill delivers an album of ten original, fully orchestrated songs that strongly evoke - and could themselves become - classics. From the moment you hear her sultry voice on the opening title track, you are transported to another time and place.
Sam Roberts

Sam Roberts is used to being pegged with a different tag for each album. From the indie rock of “The Inhuman Condition,” to the more complex rhythmic tones of “Love At The End Of The World,” Roberts says he just tries to ignore the attempts people make to categorize the music he makes. Regardless of the name one puts on it, Roberts continues to be one of Canada’s most exciting rock acts, embraced throughout the country, with pockets of substantial support around the world.
