Rex Goudie

Break The Silence

Rex Goudie is one of my favourite rock artists, because he has unique lyrics with powerful messages. I saw him in concert and he really gets into his performance. It also helps that he's REALLY hot!!!!!!!! Hmmm . . . does that seem obsessive to you?

Rex was born in Dawson Creek, British Columbia on November 18th, 1985, but moved back to Burlington, Newfoundland, with his family, just before he turned two. Burlington, Newfoundland was his father's hometown, and this is one of the reasons they moved back there.

Until Canadian Idol, Rex had been working part-time as a mechanic for his father's trucking company, while studying mechanical engineering at Newfoundland Memorial University.

Rex was the runner up on the third Canadian Idol, and Melissa O'Neil was the winner. However, apparently the phones in Newfoundland weren't working the night of the voting, so that's why Rex didn't actually win. Also, in an interview, after being on Canadian Idol, Rex Goudie confirmed that him and Melissa O'Neil had been dating since the third week of Canadian Idol.

He signed a record deal with Sony BMG in September 2005. His CD, "Under The Lights" debuted at #5, after being released December 13th, 2005. It sold 36,000 CD's in Canada and was certified gold in the first week. It was certified platinum by the Canadian Recording Industry Association in January 2006.

The song that I will be playing is called "Break The Silence" and Rex wrote it for people who don't really get what they want out of life. The instrumentation is fairly simple, with guitar, drums, bass, and vocal. The style of the song is rock, like all of Rex's music.
