Rep of the Week!
Each week we will be featuring a different Rep to spotlight their involvement in the Aware Rep Program. Each Rep of the week will be asked to answer some fun questions (similar to those answered in the Aware Records staff profiles) and send in a picture of themselves.
Our twenty-fifth Rep Of The Week is Dawn Kay!
Dawn has been an Aware Rep for nearly four years and has been our Toronto superstar! Whether it's passing out promotional materials or selling merch for all of our artists when they're in town, we always know we can count on Dawn to come through for us!
1. Favorite all-time artist/musician?
Wow I really don't know... I'll work on that.
2. What's currently on your iPod?
So much music...Iron & Wine, The Kooks, Ray LaMontagne, Sea Wolf, Bob Dylan, Bush, The Matches, Radiohead, Grace Potter & the Nocturnals, Pearl Jam, Jimi Hendrix, Fiona Apple, Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings, Great Northern, Glen Hansard/The Frames, Jerry Lee Lewis, Marvin Gaye, Oasis, The Pierces, Minus the Bear, Silversun Pickups, The Wrens, The Hold Steady, Raining Jane, Adele, Missy Higgins, R.E.M. and some Canadian Content: Bedouin Soundclash, Said The Whale, Hey Ocean!, Shad, Dan Mangan, Young Rival, Feist, Broken Social Scene...the list goes on...
3. Current TV obsession?
Saturday morning cartoons...They're about the only television I watch, and even then, it's sporatic.
4. What artist is your guilty pleasure?
I don't think there is one particular artist, but I will note that I am currently making up for the years I missed by frequently listening to the American Graffitti soundtrack.
5. If you had a band, what would it be called?
The Kooks...but I'm too late!
6. Favorite Aware artist?
