Biography
FOREVER is a Hard Driving Aboriginal Rock band. These 6-time Award Winners are composed of veteran musicians with decades of road, studio, and songwriting experience. They are well known for their showmanship, technical prowess and amazing live solos. Hailing from Cape Breton, NS, their brand of rock takes elements of both classic and modern rock and combines that with vocal and musical hooks to create a brand of Rock with an East Coast Kick!
It was that combination that helped them receive Two MIANS Awards (2003,2005) and Two ECMA Awards (2004,2005) as well as a nomination for "Best Video" for "Without your Love" from their debut release "Welcome to Forever" and a CAMA award win for the video "FREE" from their second CD "Something to Dream of". Forever also won "Best Aboriginal Rock Group" at the Canadian Aboriginal Music Awards November 25, 2005. Forever's drummer received two ECMA nominations this year for his solo effort "Energy" and for Project A.D., a drum duo project with Bruce Aitken, entitled "Together Alone".
They also scored three regional top ten hits with the songs "Here With Me" and "Without Your Love" from their first CD, as well as "One More Time" from their second release, "Something to Dream of...". They are currently climbing the charts in Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta. They continue to receive airplay across the country and in 10 other countries as well.
With two videos, a documentary (to be aired in Canada and China), their second tour in China and a "Live" DVD all planned for the next year, you'll be definitely hearing more from these "hard driving" Cape Breton Rockers! With first class performance on and off the stage, and rave reviews from around the world, come and see why a "Live" performance from Forever will leave you wanting more!
