Billy Newton–Davis Hits A High Note


International singing superstar, Billy Newton–Davis is back at JL Studios recording remixes for his currently released tracks "All U Ever Want", "I Like Your Music" and "Outta My Life".

"All U Ever Want" has just been nominated for a Juno Award for Dance Recording of The Year, sponsored by Galaxie, CBC's continuous music network.

The triple Juno winner described himself as "overwhelmed and so excited" over his nomination. "When Melleny Melody and Deadmau5 (producers and owners of Toronto Play Records) brought me into their world, I had no idea it would lead to this," he said.

Billy's debut album, Love Is a Contact Sport included the songs 'Deeper,' 'Right Beside You,' and 'Find My Way Back,' and won Newton-Davis the 1986 Juno award for best R&B/Soul recording and most promising male vocalist. His 1989 follow-up, Spellbound, included his most successful single, 'I Can't Take It,' as well as 'Can't Live with You' (a duet with CĂ©line Dion), and won the 1989 Juno award as best R&B/Soul recording.
