The film – which tells the story of a teenage hockey phenom who goes from obscurity to overnight fame – also stars a slew of Canadian talent. Among those are singer/songwriter Marc Jordan (whose composing credits include Rod Stewart’s “Rhythm of My Heart” and Cher’s “Taxi Taxi”), newcomers Noah Reid and Allie MacDonald, along with cameos by music artists Nelly Furtado, Dave Bidini, Hawksley Workman and John McDermott, journalists George Stroumboulopoulos and Evan Solomon, sports anchor Steve Kouleas, hockey dad Walter Gretzky and hockey star Theo Fleury. Unlike other musicals, the story doesn’t stop just for the sake of a song. Instead, the lyrics (written by McGowan) drive the plot. There are 20 original songs, among them one called “Darryl vs. the Kid” by Barenaked Ladies, as well as “Hugs” by Olivia Newton-John, Amy Sky and Marc Jordan, and five songs on which Hawksley Workman contributed.

  • Following Is the Text of a Letter That Was Sent by Amy Sky, Marc Jordan and Marie Denise Pelletier to All Members of Parliament and the Senate on March 18, 2009
    Following is the text of a letter that was sent by Amy Sky, Marc Jordan and Marie Denise Pelletier to all Members of Parliament and the Senate on March 18, 2009. Support for Canada’s artists became a front-burner issue in 2008. Unfortunately, we’re still waiting for fair compensation for our work. We are hopeful that 2009 is the year that this happens. Despite the political heat that was generated around arts-related issues in last fall’s federal election campaign - fanned in large part by the elimination of federal grants and programs to promote Canadian culture - we’re still waiting for real reforms to the copyright legislation which impacts tremendously on our livelihood. While grants and support programs are extremely important to artists, especially in the early stages of building a career, they are only one part of the bigger picture when it comes to living – and, more to the point, making a living – as an artist in this country. We are singers, songwriters and recording artists. Like so many other Canadians who make and market something, we make our living from the sale and use of what we create. Some people make furniture, or footwear, or even wireless hand-held communication devices. We make music. Just like the clever folks who created Birkenstocks or the Blackberry, Canada’s songwriters and recording artists are proud of the music they create. It has value, in both the artistic and monetary senses of the word. But unlike the creators of other things, artists don’t enjoy the same kind of safeguards to ensure they are fairly compensated when their work is copied and used.

  • Will Minting - Jay Graydon Interview December 18, 2005
    Will Minting - Jay Graydon interview December 18, 2005 Jay Graydon may not be known to each and everyone, but to all lovers of quality music he is known as one of the A-1 guitar players and songwriters of all time in music history. Together with producer/songwriter and long time pal David Foster he is also known to die-hard fans in Europe and Asia as the co-founder of "Westcoast Music". This music genre has its roots in the late 70s, and is also labeled Adult Contemporary Pop Music or AOR for short. As Ray Jackson helped out Jay to enter the session world in Los Angeles very successfully, Jay did the same with Steve Lukather. Read Jay's memories in this very open interview. Jay Graydon is a legendary Los Angeles based studio musician, session guitarist, writer and producer. When other studio legends had tried and failed to meet Donald Fagan & Walter Becker's seemingly impossible expectations, Jay famously nailed the Peg solo on Steely Dan's Aja album. Jay won a Grammy for his co- writing of Turn your love around with Luke and Bill Champlin, which became one of George Benson's biggest hits. Jay was instrumental in getting Luke started on the session scene in the mid 1970's when he recommended his own clients to the teenage Lukather, who as we know rapidly emerged as an equal to the likes of Jay, Larry Carlton, Dean Parks, Ray Parker Jnr, Lee Ritenour and other legendary studio guitarists. Joseph Williams and Steve Porcaro have also worked extensively with Jay in recent years.
