Jojo Mason, meanwhile, was playing junior hockey in Victoria when an injury took him out of the sports game and into his second passion, country music. The singer-songwriter has already scored four Top 10 singles and his new song Future is set to light the red lamp again, following in the footsteps of his debut smash It's All Good, then Good Kinda Love, and Something To Wrap My Heart Around.
