Family Channel invites fans of its popular music-fuelled teen drama series Radio Free Roscoe to meet the RFR cast (Kate Todd, Nathan Stevenson, Nathan Carter and Ali Mukaddam) and special guest Skye Sweetnam at an autograph signing session at Yonge-Dundas Square on Saturday, April 3 at noon. Skye Sweetnam is expected to do a brief acoustic performance at the event.

WHAT: Family Channel presents Skye Sweetnam and the cast of Radio Free Roscoe
WHEN: Saturday, April 3 from noon to 2:00 pm
WHERE: Yonge-Dundas Square (S/E corner of Yonge St. and Dundas St.)

Skye Sweetnam, the 15-year-old singer-songwriter from Bolton, Ontario, sings the RFR theme song and makes her acting debut in the RFR episode "Bad
Boy," which premieres on Family on Tuesday, March 30 at 7:30 pm with an encore on Thursday, April 1 at 7:30 pm. Skye is also featured as an opening act on Britney Spears' current North American tour. (At the Family Channel event, one lucky fan will win a pair of tickets to that evening's sold-out Britney Spears Toronto concert.) Skye's popular debut single, "Billy S," appeared on last summer's "How To Deal" soundtrack. Her debut album, "Noise From the Basement" (Capitol Records), is scheduled for release later this year.
