Famous Underground is led by vocalist Nicholas Walsh, formerly frontman of the band Slik Toxik. Folks that remember life before grunge may recall the Canadian hard rock outfit kicking up a proverbial storm in the early '90s. The band achieved Gold status in Canada with their full length debut Doin' The Nasty and took home the 1993 Juno Award (Canada's version of the Grammy) for Best Album of The Year. Sadly, in spite of their success Slik Toxik called it quits in 1995 as grunge tightened its hold on the music scene. Nick isn't one to simply fade into the background, however. Biding his time, honing his craft, he continued to work as a musician and spent close to 10 years fronting Revolver - a dark and dangerous new take on what Slik Toxik started - with long-time bassist/musical partner Laurie-Anne Green at his side. // Continue to the full article

Tim Gordon is a veteran musician, educator and arranger. He has seen the business from every platform. It was his well-thought decision to come out from being a sideman playing for all the notables in the music industry to taking a stand as the leader of his own band. Along his journey, Tim has made close friendships with those industry players that gave him his inner compass in believing that if he took the right steps, he'd have a great chance at meeting this goal. "With great anticipation, under the direction of worldwide acclaimed team of Cilff and Jason Gorov of Gorov Music Marketing, my first solo release "Up and Up" goes to Radio June 10th.

Latvia 2010 covers the same topic but it has charm and uniqueness.Underrated: Italy 2011This is a sweet, charming piece of jazzy pop.
