Billy Grima is a singer/ songwriter living in the Caledon Hills of Ontario, Canada. Born in Blacktown, NSW Australia, Billy started writing at a very young age and was singing in a church choir by the age of 8 years old. At 15, Billy moved to Canada and settled in Toronto. Like classic singer/songwriters, Billy Joel, Jim Croce, James Taylor and Bob Dylan, life's daily realities and everyday events are a source of Billy's inspiration. His smooth and soulful sound has earned him comparisons to contemporaries Jason Mraz, Ed Sheeran, Jack Johnson and even Bruno Mars.
Billy has 3 albums to his credit: I'm Just Standing , A Little Piece Of Heaven and his latest, titled Sugar & Cream, produced and engineered by Pete Swann (Glass Tiger’s Alan Connely, Adrian and Justin Lifeson, sons of Rush’s Alex Lifeson.) Sugar & Cream features a tasty blend of pop, rock, soul and Americana, including the first single, “Pleasure To Have Met You.” The album is going for worldwide radio adds this spring.
"Writing a hook or humming a melody is medicine,” Grima says. Let Sugar & Cream be the prescription for your perfect playlist.

UNSOUND FOUNDATION - Punk/Alt. Rock
Unsound Foundation twists a slow blade through the delicate veil between alternative rock and dark soul. When Tim Cravens, (guitar/vocals), Josh Odaffer (bass/vocals), Giovanni Taracena (drums), and Valerie Ojeda (lead vocals) step onto the stage, punk bleeds through post grunge into a gauzy mesh of ’70s rock. Since 2011 they’ve been playing shows and winning fans around southern California, from San Diego to the Sunset strip. Roommates Tim Cravens and Josh Odaffer began jamming and songwriting together with Josh on drums in 2010, but when Unsound Foundation was formed in 2011, Josh stepped out from behind the kit to play bass. The band still actively searching for its own rhythmic soul, headed into the studio to record using a temporary vocalist to fill the lead position ultimately held by the riveting Valerie Ojeda.
The band celebrated the release of their debut EP, Fundamentals, in July of 2012 and in the spring of 2013 the enthusiastic Giovanni Taracena eventually took the open spot behind the drum kit.
Unsound Foundation takes the stage at every opportunity and those opportunities come more and more regularly. What else would you expect? Clearly, the more you twist the blade, the more things flow.
