Miles Jones
Miles Jones is a rising star on the Toronto music scene. This comes as little surprise as his ancestors helped pioneer the music scenes in Jamaica and Toronto. Miles released Runaway Jones in August, 2008 garnering him accolades from the press, as well as a song placements in CSI and multiple nominations for the 2009 Independent Music Awards.
Kae Sun’s debut album Lion On A Leash is available now and he will be on tour across Canada in early 2010.
Artist Q&A:
Q. Which Olympic Games sport rocks the most?
A. I like to watch Team Canada take the Gold in Hockey.
Q. Which Olympic Games sport would you like to compete in and why?
A. Bobsled. The team oriented atmosphere always astonishes me how much trust you need to have in your teammates in order to perform well. I come from a part Jamaican background so the movie ‘Cool Runnings’ inspired me as a child to always reach for the seemingly impossible.
Q. What is your favourite all-time Olympic Games memory?
A. It’s a tie between Ross Rebagliati winning the first ever snowboarding Gold medal and the whole figure skating incident with Nancy Kerrigan in 1994 where she managed to bounce back and win the Silver medal in Lillehammer.
