The best of Canadian music | Happy Canada Day!
O Canadians, what are your plans for July 1st? Ours definitely include listening to the best of Canadian music! Here’s our program.
The Top 100 Canadian Songs of All-Time
Stingray is proud to partner with iconic Canadian stars Burton Cummings and Randy Bachman to present The Top 100 Canadian Songs of All-Time on Canada Day, July 1st.
Burton and Randy will join host Stu Jeffries for a full day programming of the most-requested Canadian songs spanning more than five decades. After all, it was 50 years ago that The Guess Who marked a historic milestone as “American Woman” became the first Canadian song to hit #1 in the United States! Since then, these two Winnipeg men have created some of the greatest songs in Canadian history, from The Guess Who, to Burton’s solo hits, and Randy’s work with Bachman-Turner Overdrive. They have played nearly every arena, stadium, and theatre in Canada, and they’ve proudly flown the Canadian flag to fans all around the world.
On Wednesday, July 1st, they’ll share stories from their years touring across Canada and around the world, as well as never-before-heard stories from behind the making of the greatest music Canada has ever known.
Also raised in Winnipeg, Stu Jeffries is one of Canada’s most respected broadcasters. In 1986, Stu became famous as the host of Good Rockin’ Tonite on CBC. The Friday night program was must-see TV for anyone who grew up in the ‘80s. After working at CMT, Stu joined boom 97.3 in Toronto, where he currently hosts a daily highly rated morning radio show.
