I suppose a couple interesting career points about me might be that I’ve been lucky enough to have won Edmonton’s Virgin Radio Star, had tunes in the top 40, a couple million Spotify spins, TV placements for my music, I won a WCMA last year, and of course, I have been mentioned on one of my favourite blogs Canadian Beats! Ummm – what else can I tell you… I’ve sang the national anthems for both the NHL and NBA which is a dream come true since I’m a huge fan of both sports.

I’m from the Calgary area and have been performing professionally for 5 years. Sure! Well, as you know, my name is Lexi Strate (actually my real name). In the video, I’m moving on from my boy troubles by spending the day/night out with my girls having fun and being a little rebellious! I’m so happy with how it turned out – I think it really goes well with the song and brings out my personality.”Ĭare to introduce yourself to our listeners? We decided to do a bit of an 80’s theme by using an old Betamax cam which gives the video a cool nostalgic feel. The song is about a relationship that stuck – it’s that point where it has to go one way or the other, and the decision that needs to be made when someone isn’t willing to fight to make things better. We ended up keeping that “Going Going Gone” lead chorus with the sped up vocal in there because we thought it really set the production apart. It started as a slower-tempo ballad type song, but once my other producer (Ari Rhodes) got a hold of it he completely gave it a new, cool sound. “Going Going Gone” started with a hook line one of my producers (Dan Davidson) had. We asked Lexi about the song and video, she responded, Tomorrow marks the release of Lexi Strate‘s new single, “Going Going Gone”, but here at Canadian Beats, we are happy to offer you an exclusive first look and listen.
