Sam Roberts

Does anyone remember the show Degrassi? It's still on..but with a completely different cast.

I first heard Sam Roberts on an episode of Degrassi. The song 'Hard Road' played during a scene and the more I heard the song, the more I like it. (And I used to watch Degrassi ALL the time.) So I had heard the song a lot.

Sam Roberts is the first band I started listening to that was different than everything else I listened to.I was in the 8th grade at the time, and I listed to whatever was on Top 40 radio at the time. Really poppy music.

They are basically the band that shaped what I listen to now. Because once I started listening to them, my taste in music totally changed.

Here is the music video for Hard Road. I was able to see them at the Grog Shop about 2 years ago. They're a Canadian band-so it's harder to see them in the US. It was great seeing them play this song and just seeing them in general since they had such an influence on me musically.
