He’s not in a barbershop quartet but Toronto singer Sage Harris has opened Saturday Life Barber Shop with his friend and head barber Akram Bekri. In celebration and in the spirit of the season, the two will be donating 10 percent of all haircut proceeds this weekend (Dec. 20 to 22) to Dr. Roz’s Healing Place to purchase gifts for the children staying in the emergency shelter with their mothers.


“I grew up with my mom in Scarborough; we lived in and out of different women’s shelters,” said Sage in a press statement.  “I couldn’t even afford a haircut, so I wanted to open a barber shop that supports my local community.”

In a recent podcast episode of I Hate Simkin, the 604 Records co-founder reveals that prior to the No. 1 success of Jepsen’s “Call Me Maybe,” an entire project had been made — but it didn’t make it to the masses.
