Introducing Jugpreet Bajwa

Hello everyone! For my first post of November, I want to introduce to you all another musician I have recently found and started listening to. His name is Jugpreet Bajwa and he is awesome! I have done some research to find out more about this incredible person and here is what I have found.

  • Jugpreet Bajwa is 26 years old and from Vancouver, Canada.
  • Jugpreet is an Indo-Canadian classical, folk and rock singer who can sing in 16 different languages including English, French, Hindi and Punjabi. 
  • He has been trained in both Western and Indian Classical styles of music. 
  • Sadly, he lost his sight due to eye cancer when he was only six months old but he never let that stop him from going for what he wanted. 
  • At six years old, Jugpreet started performing on stage and he has participated in over 1000 shows. 
  • In 2008, he performed in the Bollywood Ek Tara competition in Vancouver and in 2016, he performed in ZeeTV's SaReGaMaPa singing competition in Mumbai where he was one of the top 3 finalists. 
  • He has raised funds for various charitable societies and trusts. 
  • He was a runner up on Canadian Desi Idol in 2009 and in BC Junior Talent Competition. 
  • Jugpeet won the RED FM Idol 2010 award.
  • In 2013, Jugpreet was honoured with the Queen Elizabeeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal by the Governor General of Canada.
  • Actor Salman Khan praised his performance at a competition. 
  • Jugpreet has released music albums which are called Juggy de Nakhare, Gurbani Shabad Kirtan, Dil Vich and Rabb Diyaan Gallan. 
  • He has sung the American and Canadian National Anthems at several Ice Hockey games. Most recently, he sang at the Vancouver Canucks game at Rogers Arena on November 5th. 
  • His vision is to spread love and peace through music and he aspires to open a music-therapy school. 
I saw a video of Jugpreet's performance at the Canucks game and he was amazing. So many people have said they would like him to sing at more games and I agree. There are so many videos on his YouTube channel. I'm slowly getting through them all but enjoyed the ones I have already watched. I think I have listened to Begana ten times. It's beautiful and I am looking forward to hearing his next song, Mera Jaani, which will be released on November 7th. That's Canadian time so us Australians have to wait an extra day. Jupreet Bajwa is another one of my favorite musicians. I highly recommend you all check him out and follow him on social media. He has already won the hearts of millions and I am sure he will win a million more hearts of people from all over the world.

Welcome back Justice Crew!

                                           Photo credit to @Justicecrewofficial Instagram Justice Crew are a dance and music group who won Australia's Got Talent in 2010 and went on to release many amazing songs including number one hits Boom Boom and Que Sera . After their tour in 2019, they took a long break and now they are back!  I have been a huge fan of them since the beginning and have been to a lot of their shows, so when they announced they were performing a show in February, of course I was excited and attended with my friend. There was a huge crowd there to see them, which surprised a few people, including maybe the guys themselves. After six years, they probably felt rusty, but they were actually amazing as always. It was so cool to see them on stage again and here all the hit songs the number ones and  Everybody. It's so crazy how even now, after six year...

Light in the Darkness

  We all carry a little darkness. Moments we don’t speak of. Storms We face. Shadows we walk through quietly.   But that doesn’t mean our light is gone.   Even on heavy days, when it feels like someone has punched us in the chest, or everything feels hopeless. We work. We care. We laugh. We create. We shine, like the brightest star in the sky.   No matter what happens today – even if it’s messy, or lonely, or full of tears - The sun will rise in the morning. Like it always does. Like we always do.   Because light doesn’t have to shout. Sometimes it just keeps showing up, quietly. One bright beam at a time.

Virtual Stop #1: Lymington - A Seaside Gem Discovered by Chance

Welcome to my virtual travel series, where I explore beautiful corners of the world without leaving my bed. Inspired by TikTok livestreamers and walking tour videos, these posts capture what I see, feel and learn as I journey through new places from afar.  I wasn't planning to visit Lymington - not virtually, not in any way. I had never heard of it before watching my favorite singing buskers livestream from the quaint little town in the UK and now I'm captivated. The charm of Lymington unfolded before my eyes: Cobbled pathways, rows of boats bobbing gently at the marina and friendly locals to stop and enjoy the music. I experienced it from my bed.  There is something so welcoming about the town, The people passing by weren't just polite - they were supportive. Some clapped, others left kind words or a few coins, and a few even stayed for songs. There are three ladies who go often to support the guys. They have all been following them on TikTok for a while and met each other...
