Colon Cancer Canada
Colon Cancer Canada is a national charitable organization and to date, has raised over 6.6 million which is directed towards saving lives through increasing public awareness of colorectal cancer and access to screening, funding research initiatives and providing colorectal cancer patient support.
Fast Facts about Colon Cancer
Colon cancer is the second leading cause of both male and female cancer-related deaths in Canada. In 2010 over 22,000 Canadians were diagnosed with colon cancer. Although this is a startling statistic, more startling is the fact that almost half of those diagnosed died. Surprisingly, colon cancer is one of the most preventable forms of cancer. If caught early, over 90% of these cases could and should result in a full recovery.

CHRISTA COUTURE: Her Story of Love, Loss and Finding Hope Through Her Music
StarBuzz Weekly, Toronto-Aug 05, 2011 - Throughout the past three years, Christa Couture, an overall talented and well established alt-folk musician from Vancouver, BC was faced with the tragic events of losing two sons. A deeply emotional fate, by sharing her experiences and getting the support from others who have dealt with the same, helped her find the way back on track.
When her first son, Emmett, died suddenly in 2008 Couture decided to cope with her feelings and sorrow by expressing them in the songs for her second record The Wedding Singer and the Undertaker. Being public about her experiences was a hard step as personal information like that can easily be misused. Still, sharing her thoughts helped her through tough times as she was no longer alone with her grief. Couture was nominated for "Best Female Artist" at the 2008 Canadian Aboriginal Music Awards and won a prize for "Best Folk Acoustic Album" for this record.
Soon after she got pregnant again and wanting to be cautious, did not explicitly go public with this information. Without being specific, Couture noted that she was going to take a break from performing. Her second son, Ford, was born in 2009 and by his 1st birthday in 2010 she decided it would be safe to look outward again, announce his birth and start performing again. In July 2010, Ford died unexpectedly and she was once again faced with one of the most upsetting and incomprehensible situations life can take you through.
In the meantime she has found herself back composing music, filled with depth and emotion. In June this year she released her two new EP’s Loved and Lost, the first featuring five stunning fan favourites and the second a mix of five unreleased songs from the same time period.
Couture would like to dedicate these to all mothers out there who have had to go through the same sorrow and loss. Hopefully her music can help them through the tough times as they helped herself in hers.

Christa Couture Returns With Two New EP's!
"... [With a] gorgeously intimate voice - somewhere between the tough vulnerability of Amy Rigby and the passionate, sophisticated folk of Joni Mitchell - Christa Couture sings with heart-on-sleeve intensity." - PopMatters
If it feels like you’ve been bombarded with Vancouver based artists lately there’s a good reason for it: The City of Glass keeps cranking out quality musicians with diverse musical visions at an alarming rate. Take Christa Couture, for example. From the start she established herself as a fearless and razor-sharp songwriter comfortable enough in her own skin not to shy away from delivering brave lyrics with effortless, quirky grace and heart-on-sleeve intensity. Though Christa has been on a two year hiatus, luckily for us, she’s returning to work (and form) with the digital release of two brand spanking new EP’s this July: Loved and Lost.
Since her critically acclaimed debut Fell Out Of Oz (2005), and her sophomore effort, The Wedding Singer and the Undertaker (2008), Christa Couture has continued to sharpen her quill, along with her penchant for biting wit and an innate gauge for how deep to plumb the emotional seas of her personal experiences. These first two albums saw Couture developing as a multi-instrumentalist, stretching her limits as a songwriter and, guided by Vancouver producer Futcher, on her sophomore effort in particular, acquainting herself with dense production and orchestration that saw the inclusion of horns and strings. Not surprisingly, The Wedding Singer and the Undertaker hit the Top 10 on CBC Radio 3 and won "Best Folk Acoustic Album" and nominated for "Best Female Artist" at the 2008 Canadian Aboriginal Music Awards, including performing at the awards gala at Toronto’s Rogers Centre. In addition, she recently played at the 2011 JUNOFest in Toronto, "Brief Encounters 16" in Vancouver, and joined chamber-pop quartet E.S.L. and electro-cellist Cris Derksen on five B.C. tour dates in April.
To say we are pleased to have Couture back and composing is an understatement. Loved features five stunning fan favourites, while Lost is a delectable, eclectic mix of five unreleased songs from the same time period: an alternately arranged song, three tracks from a previously unreleased side project, and an early demo of one of Couture’s first songs. In other words, something for critics, fans and newbies alike.
