Once rediscovering his musical passion, there was no looking back. Don't miss this insightful and entertaining interview with a rising star in the Country Music world!

Songwriter/Producer Cyril Rawson has this to say about my guest Country artist Elyse Saunders: "Canada has produced some great female singers over the years and I have been lucky enough to have been able to work in the studio with several of them, including Lisa Brokop, Carolyn Dawn Johnson, Michelle Wright to name a few. I have also had the good fortune of having songs of mine recorded by some other Canadian female greats, most notably, Anne Murray and Alannah Myles. All of these great singers had some special quality about them that set them apart from the rest. I think Canada is about to add another young singer to that list. After working with Elyse Saunders in the studio recently, I watched a young girl go in a few short months from just being one of the rest to stepping in to that category with those few that really have that something special, that unique sound that has a way of pulling you in to a song and making you listen."

Since arriving on the country music scene in 2002, Alberta’s own Craig Moritz, has been wowing crowds with his from-the-heart performances that are packed with vivacious vocals and rockin’ beats. After a chance meeting with Toby Keith at a concert in Regina, Craig was encouraged by the Country star to pursue his dreams. Craig's first big break came with an invitation to perform at the prestigious new artist showcase during the 2004 Canadian country music awards music week. After spending some time with chart-topping music super group Lonestar, Craig flew down to Nashville in mid-2007 to work on several new tracks with keyboardist and noted music producer, Dean Sams. This led Craig to engage both Sams and another Dean, Dean Miller, son of country music legend Roger Miller and a successful songwriter and producer in his own right, to produce tracks for his album called "Down And Dirty".
