With their 3rd album The Ghost In Me released August 11, 2009, Alberta based pop/rockers Seventh Rain are a songwriting force who have successfully captured their most passionate and energetic collection of songs to date.

Formed seven years ago in Calgary, the band began their journey with strong support from Calgary based radio stations which saw their last album Byda spawn four singles including the top 20 radio debut of their single I'm Here on the Vibe 98.5's top 30. "With sing-along melodies and catchy guitar riffs, we really feel proud of this album! We are thrilled to have some new music for our fans and show them we are definitely ready for the next exciting stage in our career!" exclaims lead vocalist Ryan Williams.

As their fan base continues to grow, Seventh Rain has continued to develop a name for themselves by performing and speaking out against bullying in schools across Alberta. Having experienced bullying themselves, the band is making an effort to connect to students through their music. Their performances are a tool to motivate and entertain the students and help get the message of anti-bullying across. After earning the title "best unsigned artist" by Calgary radio station Vibe 98.5, Seventh Rain released their debut album Byda (2007). For The Ghost In Me the band headed to Pocket Studios in Toronto, recording the album in only six weeks. Working with renowned producer Trevor Kustiak (Evans Blue) the band put together 10 radio-ready pop/rock songs recorded by Mike "dullboy" Langford, mixed by Juno Award winner Mark Makoway (David Usher), and mastered by Joao Carvalho (Billy Talent) at his world renowned mastering facility.

The Ghost in Me showcases Williams' emotive vocals and exhibits the band's ever-evolving musical growth. The group displays their songwriting talents on TGIM taking life experiences and putting them to music, many times emotionally driven, dealing with love and loss. From the melodic and catchy anthem "If You Can" to the mellow power ballad "Ghost In Me" the band proves their diversity and strength in writing rock songs that have fans taking notice.

The band has toured throughout Canada, Mexico and the United States, and has shared the stage with major recording acts, including Hedley, Live, Marianas Trench, Ten Second Epic, Nickelback, Evanescence, Sum 41 and Third Eye Blind. Most recently, the band won $10,000 for the Fuel 90.3 Rock Band contest in May of last year!

Seventh Rain's full production concerts have allowed the band to showcase a much-needed anti-bullying presentation, an important message that is meaningful to the band. With this presentation, fans not only get to enjoy a full throttle rock show, but have the opportunity to experience a more intimate side of the band.
