About me: So...I'm pretty uninteresting...I have a degree in Philosophy, which means I am probably going to live in a box, but i'll ask a lot of questions along the way! I worked in Human Resources for 8 months and found that it just wasn't for me...so I moved to Quebec and studied French at Universite Laval to eventually become a French teacher! Now I'm gearing up for Teachers College in Windsor...almost done school, I swear! In my spare time I produce/host a Canadian specialty show on a really cool online radio station based out of New York, called BreakThru Radio.
If you are a Canadian indie band and you are interested in being played on my show, send me a MESSAGE either on myspace or at LauraCChord (at) breakthruradio.com - I would love to hear from you!The shows are archived, and playlists are up on my blog if you want to see what other amazing Canadian bands have been involved thus far!
Who I'd like to meet: Friends, any bands that are willing to have people give their music a chance, or anyone who loves music as much as I do.

I be fine and dandy. I'm going back to the ville next weekend to watch some football and hang with the radio couple. We'll think of you and toast in your honor.
I think I was googling something for the Arkells, maybe lyrics. I went through hell n' back trying to get my hands on their EP xD always on the lookout for new music - i'm a music whore, along with a concert whore, haha.
Hi, again thanks to my older brother I saw this flick at press-preview . I really loved it somehow I was able to relate to it is funny and smart at the same time.
We fancy your attention and affection. Have a great day Laura, and please come to halifax so we can have a fierce chill-session. Get a seat sale or something, we'll start a fundraiser. - The Gyp-ski's
Thanks for the comment, seeing you there made all the difference in the world. :) We never got a chance to comment on how great you looked yesterday, have you lost weight? Not that you didn't look fabulous before, but just thought we'd mention that we noticed! Have a great week-end.
