Soundspeed Live in Toronto!

I am so totally excited right now!! Get this: Soundspeed is doing a showcase live in Toronto next month! For those of you who don’t know, Soundspeed is the real life version of Studz. The band includes Ray, Scott, Jamie, Dalmar, and Shane! Check out their Myspace page right here.

The show takes place on Jan. 29th, 2010 at 6 Degrees nightclub in Toronto (2335 Yonge St.) It goes from approx. 6:00-9:00pm. The total cost is $7 at the door. All proceeds benefit Degrassi’s favourite charity Free the Children! The event has a Facebook event page so you can let them know if you are planning to attend.

It sounds like so much fun, and I hope that lots of you are able to attend! It’s over a month away so that gives you lots of time to figure out your plans. Speaking from personal experience, these guys are super nice and totally willing to meet and hang out with fans. It should be a blast!

Review: Cassie Steele’s Sophmore Album “Destructo Doll”

It’s been 4 years since Cassie Steele released her debut album. At that time she was 15 years old and in the middle of her 5th season as Manny Santos on Degrassi: The Next Generation. Now she’s a 19 year old young woman living in LA. Her second album, Destructo Doll, was released last Tuesday. With a mixture of R&B, pop, rock, and grunge, Destructo Doll is a fantastic summer album that will not disappoint Cassie’s fans.

A New Version of “Say What You Will”

“Say What You Will,” the song written and originally performed by Damhnait Doyle for JT’s memorial scene on Degrassi, has been remade by Canadian singer Justin Hines. Justin copes with a rare form of Larsen Syndrome which keeps him wheelchair bound, but he hasn’t let this stop him from pursuing his career in music. You might recognize him from his song “Wish You Well,” getting heavy play on radio stations, or from the Ontario Tourism Commericals he is singing in.

You can check out the music video for his version of “Say What You Will” right here on Youtube. It’s such a beautiful song. I wonder if he is a Degrassi fan. lol
