"SUPERHONEY" VIDEO ALREADY FILMED? - JANUARY 23, 2002

since the new album is almost out, take the poll and tell me how excited and psyched you are that it's almost here.  take it here

I'm not entirely sure about this, but I think I saw on the MuchMusic Much News page that Edwin has filmed, or is in the process of filming the video for his first single to be released to his sophmore release.  The song in question is called "Superhoney" and snipets of the song were played on Much News.  If I heard correctly the video is dreamlike and is comprised of three distinct parts.  The video will then follow the strucure of coming out of, and back into a dream.  Can anyone confirm this? write me

JAM!MUSIC EDWIN INTERVIEW - NOVEMBER 26, 2001
In his first interview in ages, Edwin divulges a bit of into on the impending new album.  Speaking to Jam!Music's Karen Bliss, heres what we got

Edwin has "99 percent" finished the follow-up to his 1999 solo debut, "Another Spin Around The Sun". 

But while he still has some tweaking to do in the studio, he also has to select a title for the album due out in the middle of March on Sony Music Canada. 

"I've got about 150 of them, but I haven't settled on one," Edwin says. Even the first single has been decided upon: a straight-ahead rock song called "Superhoney". "Malibu," a slower number, is also being touted as a future single. 

Judging by Edwin's comments, the new album rocks.

Due to the terrible devestation caused in New York on September 11th, Much Music has decided to cancell the MMVAs and in its place will stand a special presentation entitled "Music Without Borders".  The MMVAs will continue the annual tradition next year.

EDWIN KICKS IT UP AT WHITE RIBBON - JUNE 6

Edwin preforming at White Ribbon CampaginThe annual tradition of kicking off North By Northeast by raising awareness for the plight of abused women was held last night. For the White Ribbon gala some of the sexiest Canadian male vocalists perform cover songs at the Phoenix Concert Theatre. Organized by The Tea Party's Jeff Martin, and hosted by hosted the show with Edge 102's Brother Bill and MuchMoremusic's Bill Welychka this years event was their biggest success to date.

Edwin, decked out in tight red snakeskin pants joined the cast in performing a rather melodramatic version of U2's "One." Their cover of Hendrix's "Foxy Lady" was much better with incorporated sassiness of Edwin and The Tea Party drummer Jeff Burrow's flaming shirt.

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY - FEBRUARY 15, 2001

I hope that everyone had a really good Valentines Day, and that you sent some of the Valentines I made.  I know that these sort of websites should focus on the band, and the music, but sometimes I think it's good to have a little fun with the site, especially now that Edwin news is small and far between.  He and his band are in the studio recording a follow up to Edwin's Gold Debut Album, Another Spin Around the Sun.

I hope to keep having little fun, interactive sections to this site, but it doesn't get enough visitors at the moment to do such things, but hopefully in the future that will be possible.



NEW EDWIN VALENTINES! - FEBRUARY 2001

Since there is very little Edwin news at the moment (he's in the studio recording his second album) I decided to do something fun, and made some Edwin valentines!
Check them out, and send them to your sweetie, or to your friends
