What great news to hear Oshawa country singer Cadence Grace received the inaugural Holly and Steve Kassay Generous Spirit Award at the recent Country Music Association of Ontario held Jun 16 2019 at the National Arts Centre in Ottawa.
Grace has been battling Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia but she has brought the fight to the cancer and just released a new single, “I’m Not” which is rising up the charts.
Also rising up the charts, well, pretty well taking over th charts is Bowmanville songbird Meghan Patrick who walked away from this year’s Awards with five or as they like to say in Toronto, 5ive. Congrats to both from all at slowcity.ca and we hope to see and hear the two of you sometime soon.
