A St. Catharines teen is hoping to join the ranks of artists like Drake, Justin Bieber, and Alessia Cara. All huge names in the music industry and all hailing from Ontario.

Christian Lalama has been honing his musical skills since he was a toddler and now at fourteen he’s attracted hundreds of thousands of followers on social media. That’s led to success offline as well, like touring in the states with “Rock your Hair”, a promotional group that features other up and coming singers.

He’s also just released a music video for his new single “Helicopter” that’s already racked up 50 000 views on YouTube.
