	Sneezy Waters Sneezy Waters began his professional career in the 1960’s, and since that time he’s toured extensively in Canada (including several Arctic communities) Japan, Hong Kong, Laos, Thailand, India, Denmark, Germany, Holland, and the United States. Citing influences as far flung as Woody Guthrie, Frank Zappa, Philip Glass, Tom Waits, Bob Dylan, Lester Young, Charlie Parker, John Lennon, Willie P. Bennett, and Ian Tamblyn, Sneezy boasts a vast repertoire and an unerring ability to interpret a song. From 1977 to 1990, he starred as Hank Williams in the runaway hit Hank Williams: The Show He Never Gave. The show toured extensively in Canada and the United States and was part of O Kanada, the Canadian cultural festival in Berlin. The movie version of the play garnered rave reviews, and was shown on First Choice Superchannel and CTV in Canada, on HBO and Z Channel in the Unites States, as well as stations in Great Britain and Scandinavia. In 1984 Sneezy won the Best Actor Award in the 3e Festival International du Film Musical in Grenoble, France, for his role as Hank Williams, and the film was nominated for the best country motion picture in the 19th Annual Academy of Country Music Awards. He has been featured on many network radio and television shows including This Country in the Morning, The Entertainers, Variety Tonight, Let’s Sing Out, The Family Brown Show, Café Hibou, Canada After Dark, The Bob McLean Show, Ninety Minutes Live, The Alan Thicke Show, The Tommy Hunter Show, and Super Country Superstars. He has shared the stage with a number of musicians, including Joan Armatrading, John Hammond, Roy Orbison, and Martin Mull. Sneezy has also kept up his acting career, appearing in an episode of For The Record and the CBC mini-series Backstretch, which garnered him an ACTRA award nomination. In addition, he has produced soundtracks for Joe Cat, A National Film Board Production, and for Terminal Blues, a National Arts Centre production. He has released two albums, "(You’ve Got) Sawdust on the Floor of Your Heart" and "Sneezy Waters Sings Hank Williams." Borealis is proud to release "Sneezy Waters Sings Hank Williams" for the first time in CD format.
