LEGENDARY ROCK SINGER & SONGWRITER PAUL RODGERS TO PARTICIPATE IN CELEBRITY INTERVIEW
AT SLACKER CANADIAN MUSIC WEEK
TORONTO - March 13, 2012 - Slacker Canadian Music Week welcomes platinum-selling singer, songwriter, and self-taught multi-instrumentalist - and recently declared Canadian citizen - Paul Rodgers in an intimate celebrity interview and acoustic performance on Saturday March 24 at 2:45 p.m., Fairmont Royal York Hotel, Toronto.
Paul Rodgers' career spans 43 years and counting. Within them, he has formed and led three of rock's legendary bands - Free, Bad Company and The Firm - along with his own career to worldwide success. He has written, recorded, produced and released 30 albums which have gone on to sell over 90 million in total. His songs have left an indelible mark on music - topping several charts and winning numerous awards - while his voice has earned him acclaim as one of Rock's greatest singers.
A consummate writer and performer, Rodgers' has recorded and/or performed with the who's who of rock - including Jimmy Page, Jeff Beck, Brian May, David Gilmour, Buddy Guy, Joe Walsh, Slash, Nils Lofgren, Charlie Watts, Bryan Adams, Motown's Sam Moore, and The Four Tops while continuing to tour internationally. His most recent efforts can be heard on Chimes of Freedom: The Songs of Bob Dylan, Honoring 50 Years of Amnesty International, where Rodgers lends his vocals, arrangements and production prowess to “Abandoned Love” along with Nils Lofgren. The song is just one of the tracks from the album being released for sale for the first time. Additionally, Rodgers' newest studio recording, “With Our Love”, was released this past December and made available exclusively on-line via CD Baby, and all other digital retailers. One hundred percent of the sale proceeds are directed to The Racehorse Sanctuary & Rocking Horse Children's Charity and Seraphim 12 Foundation - all of which are organizations to which Rodgers has offered significant support in the past.
Following a nationalization ceremony last October, where he lead the group of 100 new Canadian Citizens in singing the National Anthem, Rodgers was declared a Canadian citizen. Currently residing in British Columbia, he has called Canada home since marrying former Miss Canada Cynthia Kereluk.
