The inductees into the Forest City London Music Hall of Fame were announced last week: producer and musician Paul Mills, the late Earl Heywood, known as Canada’s Singing Cowboy, world-class violinist Lara St. John, and two London rock bands, Johnny Stevens and the Canadians and B.W. Pawley and Plum Loco.
This year’s recipient of the lifetime achievement award is the late Greg Simpson, who died in June after a five-decade career as a radio music programmer and manager. He was described by Circelli as “a top-notch broadcaster and music history buff, a champion for local music, who forged an incredible career in commercial radio and always had time to help local musicians find their way.”
There will be a celebration of London s musical talent in June.
