INFORMER, DRINKING IN L.A., MY DEFINITION OF A BOOMBASTIC JAZZ STYLE and ECHO BEACH, redefined and reimagined music in an era of ‘no rules’
Song inductions will be honoured on November 1st in Toronto with performances during CSHF’s Legends Series, supported by the RBC Foundation through RBC Emerging Artists
The ‘80s and ‘90s ushered in a new era of music that transcended genres, introduced music experimentation and fusion, and was unapologetically rebellious. The Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame (CSHF) is celebrating and inducting four generational and culture-defining songs co-written by Canadians, recorded by Canadians, and that have become internationally influential:
· Informer, the biggest selling reggae-rap recording in the ‘90s co-written by Darrin O’Brien aka Snow with American rapper /producer Shawn Moltke (MC Shan), Terri Moltke, and Edmond Leary
