Has it ever struck you that this planet we all share might be getting … well, meaner? Colder? Less conducive to a rewarding, peaceful time for everybody who has to live here? Peter Foldy has certainly noticed. And on the lead track from his new EP entitled “Toxic World (Remastered),” the iconic Canadian singer-songwriter declares his dismay over the situation in no uncertain terms. 

“Will someone tell me what’s going on?” he sings, over a deceptively skipping rhythm and a rolling acoustic-guitar figure that make for a perfectly ironic counterpoint to the grave subject matter. “People talking hate, they don’t know right from wrong.”

FUN FUN FUNKnown for his catchy pop melodies, Canadian singer/songwriter, Peter Foldy has enjoyed musical success on major labels such as Capitol/EMI Canada as well as Polydor and RCA in the US.

After a successful 10 year run in the music business which included two Juno Award nominations, Foldy found himself in Los Angeles where he soon began writing and eventually directing films, working with stars such as Paul Rudd, Beverly D’Angelo and Eugene Levy. But music is a tough mistress to leave behind. Realizing that there was still a fan base out there who were requesting his songs on Canadian radio, Foldy returned to the studio and recorded a ten track CD entitled Nine Lives. Released in 2015, it received favorable reviews from a number of outlets, including The Toronto Star.
