HOMEGROWN HIT – Justin Latam ‘Dandelion Roar’

We love local music, we love local beer, and we love standing up together and saying F**k cancer.    This week’s Homegrown Hit artist Justin Latam has teamed up with Local Kingsville craft brewery Top Dog Brewing for their rendition of Fine N’ Dandy to fight against cancer in the month of April! They will be brewing a Radler infused with honey, lemon, yuzu & dandelion root. $1 from every can sold will be donated to a local charity that helps cancer patients during their journey.

Last year, Top Dog raised $1500. They plan on releasing 1000 cans and are going to create a section on the label to honour individuals who are fighting or have fought this terrible disease. Last year Justin had the name of his late brother-in-law (and band mate), Ian Tate, on the can, among other names of people who’ve fought cancer.  As Justin tells us “As I was sipping on a Top Dog Fine N’ Dandy Lemon Radler last summer, I took the opportunity for self-reflection. I thought about all the loved ones I’ve known in my life who have had to battle cancer. During that reflection, I wrote a song called “Dandelion Roar” to honour those loved ones. It was recorded at Sound Foundry Studios in Kingsville Ontario.”

You can hear Justin play this song live next Friday nightat the Bank Theatre, we’re excited to debut ‘Get this song here or anywhere you listen to your favourite things, and thanks for supporting local music.
