Michael Bublé: Difference between revisions

Line 1:

[[Michael Bublé]] (pronounced Boo-Blay) is a [[Canadian Music|Canadian]] Jazz/Big Band singer and occasional actor from Burnaby, B.C. Bublé is known for his easy-listening covers of popular jazz standards from the Sinatra-era, which he gives a contemporary touch. He's won 7 Junos and 2 Grammys. He sang the [[Spider-Man (film)|Spider-Man]] theme played during the end credits of ''Spider-Man 2''. You might recognize him for his [[Canada, Eh?]] performance during the 2010 Winter Olympics closing ceremonies. Jazz aficionados are not often fans, as they feel Bublé's takes on classic songs aren't purist enough, but he's won over large audiences as much with his boyish good looks, laid back charm and sense of humour as with his singing.

* [[The Band Minus the Face]]: His backing band performs as The Boathouse All-Stars.

* [[Cover Version]]: The Significant majority of his work, he does however write one or two songs on any album after "It's Time".

* [[Canada, Eh?]]: A wonderful bit of stereotyping made real: while on a tour of the UK, he played some ice hockey with some professional British ice hockey players, and turned out to be better than all of them at it.
