Praised by the New York Times for his "genuine originality", Rufus has established himself as one of the great male vocalists and songwriters of his generation.

At the age of 14 he was awarded Canada's best young musician and later received the Juno Award for Best Alternative Album. He has released seven studio albums, three DVDs, and three live albums. His live album "Rufus does Judy" recorded at Carnegie Hall in 2006 was nominated for a Grammy.

Rufus has collaborated with artists including, most recently, Robbie Williams, co-writing and dueting on the title track of his "Swing Both Ways" album. He has also worked with the Pet Shop Boys, Shirley Bassey, Elton John, David Byrne, Joni Mitchell, Robert Wilson, Lou Reed, Boy George and Mark Ronson.
