In today's episode, Che had an opportunity to speak to Iconic Singer-Songwriter Billy Newton Davis. He was a member of the Canadian super singing group, The Nylons. Billy grew up in Shaker Heights, Ohio but has lived in Canada for thirty years, and as a teenager, he was one of two lead singers in a local soul band called "The Illusions." After receiving his Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree from Ohio University, he moved to New York to pursue his dreams on Broadway. A formidable presence in the Canadian music industry, Billy received Junos for best R&B/soul recording for his first two albums, "Love Is a Contact Sport" (1986) and "Spellbound" (1989), and innumerable recently a Juno for best dance recording of the year for his work with deadmau5 on "All You Ever Want."
Currently, he is working on a one-person show about performing with Sammy Davis Junior, an American singer, dancer, actor, vaudevillian, and comedian. Please take a listen, share the show and tell us what you think.
