******
Recorded in November 2013, this 1-2-1 features Johnny Reid's 6th studio album, "A Place Called Love", & was produced to promote his upcoming Saskatchewan shows in support of the new record.

Learn the inspiration behind the music, and be inspired by John's journey from a teenage boy, leaving his home to start over with his family in a new country, rising to become one of that country's most celebrated and loved artists.

Discover the deep connection between the passing of his Grandmother & songs from the new album. Feel the deep sense of pride he has for his father's "hands of a working man". Hear the unmistakable "thanks" in his voice as he recounts his time at Bishop's University in Montreal. Learn why, after being courted by every major record label in North America, John opted to sign with EMI Music. Chuckle along with him as he recalls his Uncle & Aunt in Scotland being the inspiration behind one of the hits on the album. Join me in a high five to JR for his work with the Children's Aid Foundation. Find out the true origins of his Tartan Army and why Johnny Reid prefers Tim Hortons over Starbucks.
