A VOICE BEYOND HIS YEARS
When anyone but Mark Donnelly or Richard Loney steps onto the ice and into the spotlight to sing the national anthems before puck drop at Rogers Arena, fans are skeptical.
When the singer is a 12-year-old, eyebrows raise even higher.
It took Cole Armour all of 30 seconds to unfurl those brows and have fans in awe of his mesmerizing voice Sunday night. Before the American anthem was over, fans gave him a standing ovation.
Armour barely got through the Canadian anthem that followed as fans saluted being treated to a concert before a hockey game.
The 12-year-old Langley product, who made a name for himself singing Eric Carmen’s ‘All by Myself’ on The Ellen DeGeneres Show last month, has a bright future ahead of himself, one sure to be filled with Justin Bieber comparisons.
They can both unleash a voice beyond their years so the comparisons are justified.
Armour will be headlining the Kids Helping Kids 1st Annual Benefit in support of the David Foster Foundation at the Red Robinson Theatre on November 18th, 2011. For more information visit
