A couple of weeks ago, we traveled to Toronto to do some work for our client Johnny Reid. Saturday was a busy day – an early morning video shoot at an old opera house, and a sold out show at The Music Hall on Danforth. (I will share video stills and stories with you after it is released).

Most Americans have never heard of Johnny Reid, the Platinum selling Canadian Country Artist who was recently named 2008 Male Artist of the Year. It’s tough to say he’s actually ‘Country’ though. With a big booming voice like Tom Jones crossed with Bruce Springsteen, his style ranges from folk to soul. Did I mention that he’s actually Scottish?

No matter what your musical preference, you know a great performer when they walk on the stage. Johnny has been able to build a loyal and growing fan base because of his ability to connect with his audience through his heartfelt songwriting and storytelling, warm stage presence, and bold yet perfectly pitched voice. I have to admit, a song he wrote about the passing of his dear old dog brought me to tears. I can’t believe I just typed that.
