Chantal Kreviazuk Biography |
|||||||||||||
| Chantal Kreviazuk is a Canadian singer-songwriter of rock and pop music. Kreviazuk is from Winnipeg Manitoba. Her first album Under These Rocks and Stones was released in Canada in 1996 and the U.S. in early 1997. The album sold over 100,000 copies in the US fueled mostly by the singles "Surrounded" and "God Made Me" while in Canada it went double platinum with sales of over 200,000. Three videos from the album receive modest play on the video channel MuchMusic and radio ("God Made Me", "Believer" and "Wayne,") but it was a fourth, "Surrounded", that became her first major Canadian airplay hit in 1997. That year, Chantal received her first Juno Award nomination as Best New Artist. In 1998, Kreviazuk scored her only international hit to date with a cover of "Leaving on a Jet Plane", a song written by John Denver and popularized by Peter, Paul & Mary. The song appeared on the soundtrack to the blockbuster film Armageddon and was that album's follow-up single to Aerosmith's "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing." In 1999, Chantal recorded a cover of the Randy Newman ballad "Feels Like Home" for the Dawson's Creek soundtrack, and performed a cover version of The Beatles' "In My Life" for the television drama Providence. Later that year, Kreviazuk released her second album titled Colour Moving and Still, that featured tracks written with new husband Raine Maida, lead singer of Our Lady Peace. The lead single from the album "Before You" became a huge radio hit in Canada and she performed the single on the 2000 Juno Awards, where she won two awards for Best Adult/Pop Album and Best Female Artist. Chantal released two more videos from the album "Dear Life" and "Far Away" as well as an additional radio release "Souls", which was also remixed and was released as a promo vinyl for the M1 & Steve Fernandez Remix. | |||||||||||||
