#CanadianMusicWeek Bryan Finlay talks music and inspirations

Very rarely do we come across artists and musicians who continue to speak out about bullying and standing against it. Meet Bryan Finlay, who has won us over with his love for Jessie J. “I’m a huge Jessie J fan,” he told us while explaining that Jessie was one of his biggest influences and inspirations. Coming from Edmonton, Bryan’s music has been featured on shows such as Degrassi and he was also Bell Media’s Emerging Artist in 2012. Currently, he has a single titled “Bulletproof”, which came from personal experience with bullying. We spoke to Bryan about where he wanted to take his music in the future and what he’d like to accomplish. Check out the interview below.

Keep an eye out for Bryan Finlay as he is one of our favourite up and coming artists as we are sure you’ll be hearing his voice through the airwaves soon enough. Take a listen of his latest single, “Bulletproof”, below.
