Derik John Baker returned to hometown Toronto last week with his band Virginia To Vegas, performing at the iHeartRadio Jingle (Bell) Ball at the ACC on Dec. 9 where he was bushwhacked by the Wax Records team armed with a trio of big shiny awards.


A platinum award for “We Are Stars,” f. Alyssa Reid, and two gold certifications marking the success of “Lights Out” and “Selfish" were presented. VTV’s latest, “Emotions,” is off to a solid start too, Wax Records’ Andrea Guernsey assures.

In the photo is the Wax Records team, the DMD guys and iHeartRadio topper Rob Farina.  And, of course, Virginia to Vegas’s Derik Baker.
