From Wiki:


Tom Cochrane, OC (born May 14, 1953) is a Canadian singer-songwriter and musician, best known for his hit songs "Life Is a Highway", "Lunatic Fringe", "White Hot", "Boy Inside the Man", "Big League" and "I Wish You Well". Cochrane fronted the Canadian rock band Red Rider and has won seven Juno Awards. He is a member of the Canadian Music Hall of Fame, an Officer of the Order of Canada, an Honorary Colonel in the Canadian Air Force and has an Honorary Doctorate from Brandon University.


Early life


Cochrane was born in Lynn Lake, Manitoba, to Violet and Tuck Cochrane, a bush pilot. The family relocated to Acton, Ontario, when Tom was four years old and later to Etobicoke, Ontario. He purchased his first guitar at age 11 by selling a toy train set. Cochrane attended Martingrove Collegiate Institute in the late 1960s. In the early 1970s, he was performing in coffee houses across Canada. He eventually made his way to Los Angeles where he found a job writing theme music for My Pleasure Is My Business, a Xaviera Hollander movie. Unable to find steady income from music, Cochrane returned to Toronto, where he drove a taxi cab and later took a job on a Caribbean cruise liner to help pay the bills.


Red Rider

After meeting at the famous El Mocambo Tavern in Toronto, Cochrane joined the Canadian Rock Band Red Rider in 1978 and served as their lead singer and main songwriter for more than 10 years. Red Rider included Ken Greer, Jeff Jones, Peter Boynton and Rob Baker. Bruce Allen managed the band from their debut until 1985. Cochrane recorded 6 studio albums with Red Rider plus a live album, a best of album and a box set. In 2002, Cochrane reunited with his former Red Rider bandmates Greer and Jones and continues to perform with them today. A complete listing of Red Rider's recordings is included below.



Solo Career

Already a household name in Canada from his time with Red Rider, Cochrane launched his solo career in 1991 with the release of the song "Life is a Highway". The single became a global success and was followed by the release of his "Mad Mad World" album, which would reach the 6 million mark in worldwide sales. The albums "Ragged Ass Road", "Songs of a Circling Spirit", "X-Ray Sierra" and "No Stranger" followed. Cochrane's massive body of music and energetic live shows have established him as one of Canada's most-treasured artists.
