The Jeremy White Show welcomes Canadian music icon Lawrence Gowan from STYX!
We talk about how important radio was to his career back in the 80's vs social media and being an artist today. How he never really broke out of Canada by being "sandboxed" by his record label and being labeled "Cancon".

The shows will be held on January 26, 27 and 31 and February 2 and 3, 2024.

My wife and I have been fans of Gowan for decades. We both firmly believed that he should have been much much more successful and well known.

Thank you Jeremy for interviewing "Gowan" and to learn a little about the 4 record labels in Canada. I grew up before the internet and bought many albums and 45's of songs that I liked. I had a raggedy ann and Andy cube chest with all the albums and 45's in it. Unfortunately my oldest sister passed away and that chest was taken by family members. Anyways I have fond memories of those songs.

Very interesting pull back of the curtain on how certain artists never really “made it” Jeremy. Very cool other side perspective!

I am amazed Gowan was held back from the US. As far as being Cancon that whole idea was nuts. With his.music they certainty would have been made. That was the craziest idea that stopped Canadian performers to lose out or move to the States. Still I don’t stream music. I will use on computer to order the music and buy it like it’s supposed be
