Why Aidan Knight should be better known in Canada
West Coast singer-songwriter Aidan Knight swings through studio q to preview two songs — All Clear and Funeral Singers — from his new album, Each Other.
He also joins guest host Tom Power to discuss what it's like to find more success overseas than on home turf.
Knight went from having a big league record deal with David Foster to leaving his band to go it alone.
"It's hard to know what drives creativity sometimes but ... you have an idea that you think could really turn into something and ... you see it reflected in other people."
Knight also explains how the last decade of his life has been like a research period — replete with lessons for his fresh start in Europe.
WEB EXTRA | Our friends at CBC Music are streaming Aidan's new album until January 22.
