After a stint at Toronto's modern rock radio station 102.1 The Edge, George Stroumboulopoulos came on board at MuchMuisc last year hosting both The New Music and Fax programs (*they forgot to mention LOUD) on top of his regular daily shifts on air. Boys like that he rocked, girls dug his style and everyone appreciated his devotion to music. The 28 year old who (get this interesting combo) part Ukrainian and part Egyptian and part Greek, swears by Ben Harper and is content enought to gab about his love of music and the "real rock stars" in Canada: Matt Good, Danko Jones, Grieg Nori and Hugh Dillon. And a word of warning to young ladies preparing to prey on George: he's very near and dear to his pet python (who successfully kept our art director locked and hidden in George's bathroom thgouht part of our photo shoot).
But as far as style goes, George has a pretty accessible one. Simple t-shirts, preferablly those with band logos and names and dark pants are the way to go. One thing's for sure, thought: You wont catch him wearing Tommy Hilfiger just on prinipal alone. "There's something about it I don't like, " he says with a suspicious look.
