Notes
Gordie Sampson is a musical whirlwind, perpetually creating - a brilliant writer, an innovative producer, and a dynamic performer.
Gordie\'s musical genius is applauded by audiences and industry players alike. From his national debut in the early 90\'s to his presence today on the Nashville writing scene where international recording stars are discovering and recording his material including Faith Hill \"Paris\" , George Canyon \" My Name\", Keith Urban covering \"The Hard Way\" and \" You (or Somebody Like You\". But it was his role in writing Carrie Underwood’s #1 Billboard hit “Jesus Take The Wheel” that paved the path to the 2006 Grammy Award for “Best Country Song of the Year” and the 2007 Juno Award for “Songwriter of the Year”.
Gordie\'s second solo recording, titled Sunburn, is a remarkable masterpiece of skillfully crafted original songs infused with pop, folk and roots influences. From the weary truth of the title track, to the aching melancholy of Paris, this musical phenomenon has set the stage as one of Canada’s best songwriters. The award-winning “Sunburn” garnered multiple nominations and five East Coast Music Awards and two of the songs from his recording went on to appear on superstar albums, with Faith Hill’s cover of “Paris” and Keith Urban’s cover of “You (Or Somebody Like You\".
Sampson\'s certainly no stranger to the music scene. As a co-writer, guitarist and singer, Sampson played a key role in the Canadian Top 20 success of pop/rock band Realworld in the early 1990s. Gordie then shifted his attention to the more traditional music of his native Cape Breton Island and soon found himself working with the top traditional acts of the day. He continued to expand his horizons by working as musical director for stage and television productions and honing his skills in the studio.
When \"Stones\" was released to rave reviews, Gordie earned a Juno nomination and half a dozen East Coast Music and Music Industry Association of Nova Scotia Awards. The second single, Sorry, would draw particular attention to Gordie as a songwriter, while touring with The Rankins introduced him to new audiences as a performer, and producing Natalie MacMaster\'s 1999 album \"In My Hands,\" earned Gordie a new level of respect and a pair of national music awards.
