We are the grade 7/8 students from Ms. Shamon’s class. When our teacher told us that we would be singing in music class we all felt awkward, uncomfortable and scared. Later on our teacher suggested competing in the CBC Music Class we were very apprehensive and nervous to share our hidden talents. But through this process we learned that when we work together we are able to produce amazing works of art. Many of us have been together throughout our educational career and we want to welcome you to our family!
We hope you enjoy our rendition of Ruth B’s “Lost Boy”
Thank you for your consideration

Tito’s Burrito Shack Band was formed in the Music room of Sir Guy Carleton Secondary School over lunch hour jams. This Ottawa adaptive vocational school focuses on hands on learning in all departments, Music being no exception.

This year our entry consisted of Ruth B’s “Lost Boy” and “End of an Era” by the Strumbella’s. It was debated back and forth which song to choose. We chose to perform Lost Boy in part because of the excellent vocal performance by Ruth B but mostly because the instrumentation for the song consisted only of piano which left a blank page of sonic space for us to be creative in coming up with drum, guitar and bass parts. The end of “Lost Boy” provided a great space to sneak in a little “End of an Era” which kept Tito and his Burritos happy.

The Cantabile Choir from St. Margaret’s School in Victoria, British
Columbia is made up of over 60 Grade 6, 7, and 8 girls. The choir
rehearses once a week in two different classes. They were
extremely excited to experiment with making a cover of “Lost
Boy”. We decided to have some fun and add body percussion to
the song, along with ukulele and piano. The school has some
very talented instrumentalists and vocalists, as well as students
who are willing to learn new skills for their love of music. This is
half of our choir, featuring primarily Grade 7 and 8 students.
Happy listening!
