DON AMERO MAKING WAVES ON RADIO

Turn These Grey Skies Blue: Released Across Canada
Through The Storm: Topping National Aboriginal Countdown

Winnipeg, Manitoba (May 16, 2012) — With two active tracks currently being played on radio across Canada, it’s looking like sunny days ahead for Winnipeg’s Don Amero.

Turn These Grey Skies Blue
Was released to country radio stations across Canada last week, and within two days became the third most downloaded song on DMDS.com. This week, it has been listed on the Top 10 Most Active Indie downloads, and continues to be listened to by radio programmers from coast-to-coast.

Through The Storm
A song from Don’s last album, Through The Storm has slowly been gaining radio ground and earning fans. For the past two weeks it held the #1 spot on the National Aboriginal Music Countdown, and this week remains solid at #4.

ABOUT DON AMERO
You can call Winnipeg’s Don Amero one of the hardest working independent musicians in showbiz today. The singer/songwriter has toured coast-to-coast, headlined concerts, presented at festivals, performed with the symphony, and played national television.

Since 2006, Don’s three albums (Change Your Life, Deepening, The Long Way Home) have generated four national and international awards – Aboriginal Recording of the Year (2011 Western Canadian Music Awards), Best Folk Recording (2011 Native American Music Awards), Aboriginal Songwriter of the Year (2009 Canadian Folk Music Awards), Male Artist of the Year (2009 Canadian Aboriginal Music Awards) – and 18 more nominations. He was the first-ever recipient of the James Brown Hardest Working Musician Award, presented in fun by CBC Radio host Wab Kinew.
