For all of the success that’s deservedly come David Myles’ way over the last few years, there’s something incredibly grounded about his songwriting style. Myles has a way with words and music. His charm and optimism flow freely from In the Nighttime, continuing with his tradition of seamlessly melding folk, jazz and more. The second disc in this collection (The After Party), produced by Myles’ pal Classified, capably showcases a more pop-oriented side to his persona with equally celebratory results. In the Nighttime is a spectacular addition to Myles’ discography.

David had a great night performing with the amazing kids at Basinview Drive Community School in Bedford.

The song Inner Ninja has already earned Nova Scotia rapper Classified and his partner-in-rhyme David Myles a Juno Award. It’s also gone [triple] platinum in Canada and now its uber-cute promo clip is one of the top contenders at the 2013 MuchMusic Video Awards.

Scenes of Classified and Myles performing with adolescent martial artists earned four nominations including video of the year, hip-hop video of the year, MuchFACT video of the year and the fan-voted Your Fave Video category.

This makes Classified the third most nominated act this year, after Marianas Trench, with six nominations, and Drake, with five.

Classified and Myles won’t be the only East Coast acts in contention at the awards gala, airing live on MuchMusic on June 16 at 10 p.m.

Rich Aucoin’s intricate Brian Wilson Is A.L.i.V.E. video got a director of the year nod for Halifax filmmaker Noah Pink, while Matt Mays’ trippy Take It on Faith clip was named in the rock-alternative category.

Keep your fingers, and nunchucks, crossed!

Really, winning a Juno award for ‘Inner  Ninja’ – a collaboration with Classified, comes as no surprise for New Brunswick native David Myles. After all, good things come when you get along with someone so well.

“We have known each other for quite a while and we really see eye to eye. He has this amazing ear. He performs music by feel which is unlike me. I learned with technique, I am schooled and we are a perfect contrast. He plays and writes music the way most people hear it.”

Myles, of course, is speaking of his recent 2013 award at the Junos. He won, along with the Hip – Hop / Rap sensation ‘Classified’, the award for Rap recording of the year. A prize which makes Myles proud but is furthest from the type of music Myles is accustomed to performing or writing.
