R&b Artist Dwight Anderson

DWIGHT ANDERSON'S BIO

From the tender age of 6 singing in church, Dwight Anderson’s extraordinary voice has amazed his audience. Hailing from Toronto, Canada, Dwight spent most of his adolescence years making demos and performing at talent shows with much success. There was no doubt in Dwight’s mind that music was his calling.

The singer/songwriter stands out in a crowd with his soulful voice and dynamic vocal arrangements. Influenced by music greats such as Sam Cook, Al Green, Stevie Wonder, R Kelly and Carl Thomas just to name a few, Dwight has developed his own unique style that puts him in a league of his own.

Dwight’s frist taste of success came with the release of his single “Oh No”. The song became a hit, garnering major radio airplay. As one of the most requested songs of the year “Oh No” ranked #53 on the Flow 93.5 FM’S Top 93 Songs of 2003. Following the radio success of “Oh No”, Dwight released the video for the single, which was in heavy rotation on Much Music, MuchVibe, and Much More Music. Dwight kept the momentum going as he released other successful singles: “I Need You Here”, “Holdin’ On”, “All Over Again”, “Tonite” and “So Beautiful.”

Not only has Dwight crafted hits for himself but for other established artists as well. His songwriting contributions includes Canadian Idol’s runner-up Gary Beals’ major self-titled debut album. Dwight co-wrote two songs, "Memories" and the lead single “Summer Nights” which charted highly on the Canadian Singles Chart. The album was a top 10 hit, earning a Juno Nomination for Best R&B/Soul recording in 2005.

Over the years, Dwight continues working behind the music scene and is currently preparing for the release of his debut album. With the recent release of his debut project entitled "All Of Me", Dwight merges the Soul of R&B with the grit of Hip Hop, bridging the gap between all generations. Both hopeful and grounded, Dwight Anderson is well on his way to becoming a major innovative artist in today's music scene.
