Tagging themselves I Live The Life Of A Movie Star Secret Hideout, the indie rock duo Adam Bayer and Maria Pitallano disregarded their tongue twisting moniker and played on with their quirky pop sound. Throughout the mid-'90s, the group became quite popular among the New York artsy crowds, and Bayer founded the Radio Argot label. Two EPs -- Atom Blast and Gale Wind Transistor -- were released shortly thereafter. ~ MacKenzie Wilson, All Music Guide

A young classically trained pianist from Winnipeg, Chantal Kreviazuk gained a record contract from Sony -- as a vocalist -- without ever having performed live. Born in Manitoba, Kreviazuk was an infant prodigy at the piano, winning competitions and receiving classical education on piano as well as voice.
