Maggie Szabo - Tidal Waves & Hurricanes





Maggie Szabo
CD title : Tidal Waves & Hurricanes
Genre: Pop / R&B
Country:  Canada

MAGGIE SZABO A soulful Canadian singer who’s won over audiences worldwide, with 13 million views on YouTube, Maggie Szabo comes from small town Ontario and is now an accomplished singer/performer living and working in Los Angeles. Maggie honed her craft at a young age in her hometown of Dundas.

Following her high school graduation, she moved to Nashville to continue the quest to improve her writing and performing. Her original sound, infused with soulful pop melodies, secured Maggie a record deal with Linus Entertainment in Ontario.

Her debut pop album Now Hear Me Out was released in November 2012. All songs were co-written by Maggie, with production by Justin Gray (Joss Stone), Gavin Bradley (Nelly Furtado) and Tanya Leah. The single Lovesick was released to heavy rotation on Canadian airwaves, and Maggie was named Bell Media’s Emerging Artist—personally chosen by famed blogger Perez Hilton as his “Can YOU Sing?” contest winner. He hailed Maggie as a superstar on the rise.

Since living in Los Angeles, Maggie has performed to sold-out shows at the infamous Viper Room, House of Blues, and famed venue the Hotel Café. She also wrote and recorded her song Tidal Waves and Hurricanes. The music video premiered exclusively by Ryan Seacrest and has garnered great reviews from media and fans. She’s also won the 2014 Toronto Independent Music Award in the category for Best Pop.


With a quickly growing fan-base and a social media following that tops some of the nation’s most established pop artists, Maggie has effectively used the internet to showcase and market her songs to the world and her dedicated fans. She’s now gearing up for the next exciting chapter in her musical journey—an album of new songs and a tour to follow.

Catch up with Queen drummer Roger Taylor in February'sGoldmine

The running joke is that when the drummer asks his bandmates if they'd like to try one of his songs, it's the last thing he ever says as a member of the band. Luckily for music fans, neither Queen nor its singer-songwriter drummer put much stock in stereotypes. In the February 2015 edition of Goldmine, Roger Taylor reflects on his musical career, his early influences and the moment he knew he'd finally made it.

      Cliff_Richard_FICliff Richard honors the roots of rock with 'The Fabulous Rock 'n' Roll Songbook' 
      It's been said that without Cliff Richard, there would be no Beatles, and without Elvis, there would be no Cliff Richard. Unfortunately, the often-overlooked English rocker's place in American music history has been more of a missing link than that of the rock and roll linchpin he's perceived to be in the rest of the world. Fortunately, Richard is more than ready to school you in the roots of rock, thanks to 'The Fabulous Rock 'N' Roll Songbook. READ MORE
