Like many musicians in neighbouring Alberta, BLAKE HAVARD heard about the music scene breaking out of the Westcoast/Vancouver in the 80’s.Nobody really remembers when BLAKE rolled into town, but in very short order he was writing, producing and recording some of the finest indie rock in Vancouver.Over the years BLAKE has earned the respect of a who’s who on the music scene. Be it members of THE ODDS, BRYAN ADAMS BAND and Bob Dylan’s Band to name a few. When BLAKE called, they all turned up to lend their talents.And that gets us to where we are today. Brand new music from BLAKE HAVARD.“Bad For Me” a real life slice of life inspired by a chance meeting with a lovely lady at a local karaoke night. The all star musical backing on the song comes courtesy of two veterans of BRYAN ADAMS band with a liberal dose of hammond organ and keyboards courtesy RAMI JAFFEE (Wallflowers/Foo Fighters). If those credentials aren’t enough to make you sit back and want to listen, the whole project was polished and mixed by superstar producer MIKE FRASER, shortly after he completed the new AC/DC album.Now you may be asking yourself, “How the hell can he afford all this talent?” Easy. To meet BLAKE is to fall in line with whatever he is up to. His passion is his calling card, his talent closes the deal.BLAKE is the first one to admit that if a situation makes him smile or cry, he knows he is on to something. And I say the best way to get to know BLAKE is to by listening to his music, he holds nothing back. If you KNOW Blake, you know you can’t say NO!CHECK OUT “Bad For Me”
