to be a musician and songwriter. He started playing guitar at the age of 6 and almost immediately was performing at family gatherings. By the time he was 11 or 12, Scotty was playing Moose Lodges and VFW halls. Scotty was swept away by the music, and before he’d even finished high school, he knew he had to go to Nashville and seek his fate. He says, “My father got me into Hank Williams Sr., then I graduated to Hank Jr... I was reading liner notes, who wrote all the songs, who played on everything.''</p><p>‘’I knew Nashville was where I could go for the same kind of music. I couldn’t get there fast enough.”</p><p>There was no looking back for the boy who knew of blazing honky tonk singer <strong>Gary Stewart</strong>, a mythic local hero, if only from the occasional sightings of the ragingly troubled country sensation in Vero Beach, where Emerick ultimately grew up. Stewart was emerging from a too-combustive, failed-to-launch duo with future <strong>Country Music Hall of Famer Dean Dillon,</strong> the single most recorded writer in George Strait’s catalogue.</p><p>‘’<a class="no-pjax" href="https://scottyemerick.com/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(30,75%,60%);"><strong>Scotty Emerick</strong> </span></a>has an incredible history as a songwriter working with the best of the best in country music,'' says, <a class="no-pjax" href="www.musicsjourney.com" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:#0ac4ec;"><strong>Kim Cyr</strong></span></a>, Editor in Chief for <a class="no-pjax" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(270,75%,60%);"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a> and host of the International <a class="no-pjax" href="www.musicsjourney.com" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(240,75%,60%);"><strong>Music's Journey Podcast</strong></span></a>. ‘’It was a pleasure to sit down with <strong>Dean Dillion</strong> to do an interview in 2022 and he would tell me stories about meeting this great songwriter named, ‘’<a class="no-pjax" href="https://scottyemerick.com/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(30,75%,60%);"><strong>Scotty Emerick</strong></span></a>.'' ‘’Dean would talk about the style of writing that he loved and Scotty was one of those artists that I needed to reach out to. Dean loves Scotty and he was amazed by just how talented Scotty is. ‘’The man can write just what your heart needs,'' he said. ‘’That boy can write,'' says <strong>Dean Dillon</strong>.</p><p>‘’After I finished the interview with Dillon, I started to do some research on the history of <a class="no-pjax" href="https://scottyemerick.com/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(30,75%,60%);"><strong>Scotty Emerick</strong></span></a> and I knew I needed to get him on the show to talk about his history with country music. There is something about the songwriting process that just seems to come so easily to some artists and Scotty reminded me of <strong>Dean Dillon</strong>. You can understand why so many of the best in country music over the past fifty years like <strong>Toby Keith</strong>, <strong>Dean Dillon</strong>, <strong>Kenny Chesney</strong>, the late <strong>Jimmy Buffett</strong>, <strong>Sawyer Brown</strong>, <strong>Willie Nelson</strong>, <strong>Red Lane</strong>, <strong>Hank Cochran</strong>, <strong>Mac McAnally</strong>, and so many more worked with <a class="no-pjax" href="https://scottyemerick.com/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(30,75%,60%);"><strong>Scotty Emerick</strong></span></a> as their go-to songwriter of choice.

Laughing, the sandy-haired Emerick admits when talking about serving as the creative foil for the <strong>Academy of Country Music Entertainer of the Year </strong>and <strong>Presidential Medal of Freedom</strong> recipient, “When I grabbed a guitar, it was 24/7. I slept with it. Toby and I’d do shows: I’d do my show, he’d do his, then we’d get back on the bus, and we’d be back at it. Just making up songs, it was so completely creative. That’s all we did, all the time... We sparked so much, it opened up my mind.”</p><p>But we’re ahead of ourselves. Straight out of high school, the kid who grew up on the water – “summertime was the ocean, fall, and winter is freshwater fishing and airboats” – headed to the middle of America to chase his dream. Landing a job bussing tables at the Spaghetti Factory downtown, he started knocking on doors and making the rounds.</p><p>“The first month, I was down on Music Row and someone told me I should meet <strong>Bryan White</strong>, who was the same age,” he recalls. The teenagers had big dreams, but while both were consumed with music, White had a plan. He wanted a record deal within a year and got one with Asylum, where he would release two platinum records, win awards, and live the life.</p><p>Emerick wanted something a little richer creatively: to live the life, to write the songs, to sop up all the wisdom you could find hanging out with Dillon, <strong>Red Lane</strong>, and more old-school writers.</p><p>“<strong>Red Lane</strong> lived in an old airplane out in Ashland City,” he explains, clearly delighted. “His best friend was <strong>Hank Cochran</strong>. He was a fabulous guitar player and songwriter, of “<strong>Miss Emily’s Picture</strong>,” and Haggard’s “<strong>My Own Kind of Hat</strong>” just to name a very few. </p><p>“He really took me under his wing. I sought him out, because I knew how good he was, and he let me be around so much.”</p><p>That notion of friendship and support saw Emerick, White, and <strong>Sawyer Brown</strong> leader <strong>Mark Mille</strong>r sit down to write a song. They not only crafted “<strong>I Don’t Believe In Good-Bye</strong>,” which hit Country’s Top 5, but Miller invited the 19-year-olds down to Muscle Shoals where the legendary <strong>Mac McAnally</strong> produced the band.</p><p>Once again, the young songwriter, who was consumed by music, took in everything around him. Beyond the iconic studio and famous <strong>Muscle Shoals</strong> rhythm section of David Hood on bass and <strong>Roger Hawkins</strong> on drums, he stayed in touch with McAnally. It’s a relationship that’s seen the two men share stages – along with a certain Floridian songwriter/lifestyle chronicler named <strong>Jimmy Buffett</strong> – over the last three decades. </p><p>“That was so long and so many miles ago,” he marvels. “I was just working on playing, singing and writing. I was just chasing being in Nashville... or maybe staying there. I was living the dream, wherever it was going to take me. I was living in the moment, pretty much day by day.”</p><p>Even before he ran off and joined Toby Keith’s traveling road show, the likable Emerick was forging relationships with the greatest songwriters of the past fifty years. Impressed by his knowledge of not just the songs and the stars, but the people who wrote them, played on them, produced and engineered them, anyone who came in contact with the emerging writer – from <strong>Willie Nelson</strong> and <strong>George Strait</strong> to <strong>Kenny Chesney</strong> and Keith – kept having him come around.</p><p>Those artists liked his creative juice, the way life just flows through his songs. And if he had deals with <strong>DreamWorks Nashville</strong> (“briefly”) and <strong>Rising Tide</strong> (“very briefly”), yielding one album for <strong>DreamWorks</strong> and a few singles on <strong>Show Dog</strong>, it hasn’t stopped an eclectic group of top-shelf artists from <strong>Eric Church</strong>, <strong>Alan Jackson</strong>, <strong>Sammy Hagar</strong>, <strong>Ronnie Milsap</strong>, <strong>Billy Currington</strong>, <strong>Gary Allen</strong>, and <strong>Del McCoury</strong>, as well as the above names, from making Emerick’s songs their own. </p><p>To that end, Emerick’s ability for channeling authenticity into what he writes has seen him earn <strong>Nashville Songwriters Association International’s Songwriter of the Year</strong>, in addition to picking up <strong>Best Country Song Grammy</strong> and <strong>Country Music Association</strong> nominations. There are some things you can’t fake, and that’s what makes the retiring Emerick such a lethal weapon.</p><p>“You don’t get known for the things that don’t happen, you only get known for the things that do,” he shrugs. “There’s a lot of things that don’t happen or fall through, but even in getting that far, the adventures you have...”</p><p>Let’s talk – or sing – about those adventures, shall we? How about Keith’s #1s “<strong>I’m Just Talkin’ About Tonight</strong>,” “<strong>I Love This Bar</strong>,” “<strong>Whiskey Girl</strong>,” “<strong>As Good as I Once Was</strong>” and the driving <strong>Willie Nelson</strong> duet “<strong>Beer for My Horses</strong>”? Or Keith’s Top 5’s “<strong>Get Drunk and Be Somebody</strong>” and “<strong>A Little Too Late</strong>? How about the 46 other Keith cuts?</p><p style="text-align:center;"><strong>Toby Keith - Beer for My Horses ft.

We pushed each other – and that’s the exciting part of doing this. Once you lock in creatively, you have no idea how far you can go. Or who you’ll go with.'' </p><p>“I think about Muscle Shoals, it was the first time I saw a lava lamp, all those album credits I’d read those names on. It was crazy. I mean, Mac played on (Hank Jr.’s) Family Tradition. There’s someone who never changed, always the same and always so talented. He was a good barometer then – and still is – for how far we have to go to get up there.”</p><p>Getting up there means having a song on Willie Nelson’s Grammy-winning album <strong>A Beautiful Time</strong>, as well as co-writing the Nelson-inspired “<strong>I’ll Never Smoke Weed With Willie Again</strong>.” It means doing writer's nights with folks like <strong>Dean Dillon</strong> all over the world, <strong>USO Tours</strong> in the Far East, Middle East and anywhere our men and women are deployed, to sit in Antarctica with <strong>Buffett’s Coral Reefer Band</strong> and jumping up onstage with many of country’s biggest headliners.</p><p style="text-align:center;"><strong>Jimmy Buffett - Like My Dog</strong></p><div class="video-container size_xl justify_center" style=""><iframe data-video-type="youtube" data-video-id="H0jrVUAv1Q0" data-video-thumb-url="" type="text/html" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/H0jrVUAv1Q0?rel=0&wmode=transparent&enablejsapi=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="true"></iframe></div><p style="text-align:center;"><strong>Toby Keith- Scotty Emerick - Willie Nelson - I'll Will Never Smoke Weed With Willie Again</strong></p><div class="video-container size_xl justify_center" style=""><iframe data-video-type="youtube" data-video-id="wDQANmQO2g0" data-video-thumb-url="" type="text/html" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/wDQANmQO2g0?rel=0&wmode=transparent&enablejsapi=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="true"></iframe></div><p>While some people come to Nashville with a plan and a defined sense of making it, Emerick just knew he wanted to be where the music was, to suck up knowledge and exhale songs. Three decades in, not much has changed for the guy with the cock-eyed smile whose songs have helped sell tens of millions of albums.</p><p>“I’ve never thought of music as a job,” he concludes. “If it ever started to, I’d retreat... to keep that hunger inside me. I’ve always felt this was something more, something almost middle-aged crazy and fun. You know, I believe in hope, which is the best of all things in my situation. If there’s one thing I’ve learned it’s that something else, something good will happen. Maybe even something you couldn’t imagine, but is even better.</p><p>“That’s kind of been the story of my life.”</p><p>To hear the interview with <a class="no-pjax" href="https://scottyemerick.com/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(30,75%,60%);"><strong>Scotty Emerick</strong></span></a>, go to <a class="no-pjax" href="www.musicsjourney.com" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(240,75%,60%);"><strong>www.musicsjourney.com</strong></span></a> or click on the link below.</p><p style="text-align:center;"><a class="no-pjax" href="https://www.musicsjourney.com/1084946/14008021-music-s-journey-interview-234-w-american-country-music-award-winning-artist-and-songwriter-scotty-emerick-his-stories-and-music" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(180,75%,60%);"><strong>Music's Journey INTERVIEW #234 w/ American Country Music Award-Winning Artist and Songwriter Scotty Emerick His Stories and Music!</strong></span></a></p><p style="text-align:center;"><strong>Follow Scotty Emerick</strong></p><p style="text-align:center;"><a class="no-pjax" href="https://scottyemerick.com/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(30,75%,60%);"><strong>Website</strong></span></a><strong>/</strong><a class="no-pjax" href="https://www.facebook.com/thescottyemerick" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(30,75%,60%);"><strong>Facebook</strong></span></a><strong>/</strong><a class="no-pjax" href="https://twitter.com/ScottyEmerick" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(30,75%,60%);"><strong>Twitter</strong></span></a><strong>/</strong><a class="no-pjax" href="https://www.instagram.com/scottyemerick/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(30,75%,60%);"><strong>Instagram</strong></span></a><strong>/</strong><a class="no-pjax" href="https://www.youtube.com/user/ScottyEmerickVEVO/featured" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(30,75%,60%);"><strong>YouTube</strong></span></a><strong>/</strong><a class="no-pjax" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/272S8iugLIOLrjNZYDDqMj" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(30,75%,60%);"><strong>Spotify</strong></span></a><strong>/</strong><a class="no-pjax" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/scotty-emerick/3411953" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(30,75%,60%);"><strong>Apple</strong></span></a></p><p> </p><p> </p>2:03:05Kim Cyr NOW and THEN Magazinetag:nowandthenmagazine.com,2005:Post/72972592023-11-19T19:23:02-05:002023-11-20T20:26:17-05:00Music's Journey INTERVIEW w/ Leading Canadian Tenor, Joey Niceforo - Headlines HARMONIZING HEARTS – MUSIC FOR A CAUSE on November 20th at the Legendary Roy Thomson Hall!

I then moved to Toronto to pursue my post-secondary education in classical music, studying for four years at the Glenn Gould School at the Royal Conservatory of Music. My training continued for an additional two years at the University of Toronto’s Opera School. During this time, I also spent a year studying in Siena, Italy at L’Universita Per Strainer and Chigi (the local conservatory).''</i><span style="color:#222222;"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p><strong>Joey</strong><i>: ‘’After graduating from U of T, I had the opportunity to be one of the original members of the Canadian Tenors; from there I went on to form a group called Destino. In both of these groups, I had the incredible opportunity, with my colleagues, to tour around the globe with performances including two Olympic Games and the famed Carnegie Hall. I immensely enjoyed this time in my life. </i></p><p><i>When it was time for this chapter to end, I was at a fork in the road so to speak. I now consider myself a “new classical” singer, a phrase I began using during the release phase of my debut album </i><a class="no-pjax" href="https://open.spotify.com/album/0DBjU8reutDHpKdxU7Eb7H"><i>Priceless</i></a><i>which I recorded at Abbey Road Studios in London, England.

<p><i>‘’To name just one would be difficult for me. I grew up listening to country music like Tammy Wynette, George Jones, Garth Brooks, and Dolly Parton. It influenced me, but my voice isn’t suited to country music.<o:p></o:p></i></p>
<p><i>I also grew up listening to a lot of Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra, Connie Francis, Elvis Presley, Rita MacNeil, and a bit of Opera as my father had some records of Pavarotti.<o:p></o:p></i></p>
</div><p><i>Later on in my early teens I LOVED listening to Celine Dion, but what really inspired me to sing was listening to the original The Three Tenors album. This was the first time I listened to music and cried, and it set off emotions in me that I had never felt before. When I began to try and imitate them, poorly at first I might add lol, it was the start of my music journey.<o:p></o:p></i></p><p><i>Today, my favourite go-to artists are Shirley Bassey, Edith Piaf, Maria Callas, Judy Garland, Charles Aznavour, Elton John, and Celine Dion.''</i><span style="color:#222222;"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p><o:p></o:p></p><p><strong>K: You have been an inspiration to so many who love the Canadian Tenors. What has it meant to you to be a part of the Canadian Tenors?</strong><o:p></o:p></p><p><strong>Joey</strong>: <i>‘’I was so lucky to have been a part of this group. I auditioned while I was still at the opera school at U of T, and this was a different world from that of opera. We had to speak and interact with the audience which I found extremely difficult, and I also was a very unsure singer at that time as well, so between the lack of stage know-how and consistent singing abilities I had a hard time at first. The experience forced me to get better, to learn from my other talented colleagues, and with the constant touring, it gave me incredible opportunities to try different things out to see what worked and didn’t work.''</i><span style="color:#222222;"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p><strong>K: Who is your favorite singer of all time?</strong><o:p></o:p></p><p><strong>Joey</strong>: ‘’<i>If I have to pick 3… Pavarotti, Maria Callas, and Shirley Bassey.''</i></p><p><strong>K: What is the most memorable performance for you so far in your career?</strong><o:p></o:p></p><p><strong>Joey</strong>: <i>‘’I have to say I’ve been very lucky with the performances I’ve had so far in my career, with the people I’ve performed with and for, and also the places I’ve sung. The most memorable concert, which may seem insignificant, was at a small historic venue called The Sharon Temple. This took place a few years ago. I had always been in groups sharing the stage with some amazing people and had never really done any solo work so I felt like that was my crutch. After The Canadian Tenors and Destino ended, I was going to quit singing and maybe go back to school, but I have some pretty amazing people in my life who convinced me to try and go ‘solo’. The Sharon Temple performance was my first ever ‘Joey’ concert and I was incredibly nervous not knowing if I could pull something off with just me on stage. The concert in my mind was a success even though there wasn’t a large amount of people in attendance. What mattered most was that I pulled it off, so knowing I could do it alone was a big turning point for me.'' </i></p><p><strong>K: What was the first concert you ever attended?</strong></p><p><strong>Joey</strong>: <span style="color:#222222;"><span lang="EN-US"> </span><i><span lang="EN-US">‘’</span></i></span><i>My mother used to take me to all kinds of concerts growing up, but one of the first ones I remember are Canadian singers Carroll Baker or Rita MacNeil.''</i><span style="color:#222222;"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p></o:p><o:p></o:p></span></span><o:p></o:p></p><p><strong>K: Tell us about the inspiration behind ‘’Harmonizing Hearts – Music for a Cause’’ and how the idea for this event came about.</strong></p><p><strong>Joey</strong>: <i>‘’The idea of the show came from one of the producers of my album Priceless. We were out for dinner, and he asked if I had ever performed at Roy Thomson Hall. I never have and he suggested that he would like to produce a concert there. Not only for me but for and with people in the community. We set out to do something for a good cause and bring in friends and colleagues that I’ve worked with before.''</i></p><p><strong>K: The event features an impressive lineup of talents, including orchestras and other vocalists. How did you go about selecting the performers for this special event?</strong><o:p></o:p></p><p><strong>Joey</strong>: <i>‘’I’ve been lucky enough to be a regular performer for the past two years at the Casa Loma music series (‘Symphony in the Gardens - Casa Loma’ and ‘Twilight Symphony at the Castle’) under the direction of my friend Maestro Paolo Busato. I also recently performed with another friend of mine Maestro Sabatino Vacca with the Cambridge Symphony Orchestra.<o:p></o:p></i></p><p><i>We thought it would be amazing to combine these two great community orchestras as well as add my dear friend and colleague, soprano Sara Papini. Throughout my career, I have probably sung with Sara more than anyone else. Her voice and stage presence are incredible, and our friendship and mutual respect brings out a natural dynamic between the two of us on stage. She’s also a regular at the Casa Loma concerts.<o:p></o:p></i></p><p><i>Jackie Richardson is an award-winning singer and actor whose career spans more than five decades.

And is it ever!! <o:p></o:p></p><p><strong>K: When you look back at the beginning of your career in music and the approach that you had set out for this year of not necessarily focusing on the goals or specific milestones, but the energy you put into things…tell us about that new outlook this year and your thought process heading into 2023.</strong></p><p><strong>Meghan: </strong> <i>‘’It really has been an incredible year, and I’m very proud of what my team and I have accomplished. There are a lot of things in this industry that are out of my control, so dubbing 2023 “The Year of MFP” was more about manifesting being my most authentic best self, than about trying to reach specific accomplishments. I chose to focus on what actually is in my control - making music I love that has meaning, working with people who have the same mindset about how to reach that success, and making bold moves that are true to who I am. I spent a lot of my early career making decisions often based on other people’s vision of who I needed to be to be successful because I was young and new to the industry and it was what I thought I needed to do to reach certain milestones. I know now, that success only really feels good when you make it there on your own terms. I realized that when you focus on making quality art that resonates with your fans, and you work on becoming your best self, the success and milestones you want to reach, that are meant for you, will naturally follow. I have never been more proud than I am now of the music I’m putting out, and the impact it is having on the people who are listening. I plan to continue this same approach and energy going into the new year, I have a ton of great songs I can’t wait to put out.'' </i></p><p><strong>K: It has been crazy cool to watch your career from the beginning and all that you have accomplished as a woman in Canadian country music. It is so amazing to see you in your artistry today, kicking some serious butt…you are so grounded this year in a way that is hard to put into words but everyone can see that calmness…your openness about faith, and the role that plays both in your marriage with Mitchell Tenpenny and for you personally. <o:p></o:p></strong></p><p><strong>I know the last few years have been trying on most people but there has been a lot of change for you…. Tell us a bit about that and what faith has brought to your life…the certainty you can see with the path you are on today!</strong></p><p><strong>Meghan</strong>: <i>‘’If you had told me years ago that I would be willing to boldly share so much of my story and my faith, I wouldn’t have believed it. The last few years have been incredibly challenging for so many people, and I am no different. When the pandemic hit, I felt like I was on top of the world with so many of my biggest dreams right within my reach. I had just signed my US record deal, I was on my first headlining tour in Canada, selling out venues, and I was finally in a happy and supportive relationship. Then what felt like overnight, it all got ripped away with seemingly no light at the end of the tunnel for a long time. It was the first time in my life I ever considered that maybe I had gone as far as I could go in my career, I had really lost a lot of faith in myself, and I was really depressed. Not long after things started opening back up, I was dropped from my Canadian label after spending almost a year begging them to let me release music. I had felt trapped, then unwanted, and like a failure, like everything I had built was crumbling and I didn’t know how to stop it. Finally, I just got tired of feeling sorry for myself, I shifted my focus to the one thing I could control, which was writing songs. I challenged myself to dig deeper and write the kind of songs I never thought I could because the label wouldn’t like them, or radio wouldn’t play them. Most importantly, I gave it to God. I prayed and told Him what my new idea of success looked like, and asked for the courage and wisdom to pursue it. That decision was where the shift really happened for me, it released me from feeling like I had to micromanage every aspect of my career, and it gave me faith that the opportunities meant for me would come, and that when things I wanted didn’t happen, it wasn’t because I wasn’t good enough or undeserving. They simply weren’t meant for me and better things were on the horizon.'' </i></p><p><i>‘’In addition to my faith, I had unwavering support and motivation from my husband… he had struggles of his own, but he never gave up on me or let me suffer alone. He gave me unconditional love and grace, and also let me know when it was time to pull myself up by my bootstraps. I also finally landed on the right manager, Randi McFadden. I wouldn’t be where I am without her. She is smart, ambitious, and hard-working, but she also leads with her heart. Our motto is we do things the right way even when it’s the hard way, and we agree that no amount of success is worth sacrificing who we are, and the kind of people we want to be.''</i> </p><p><strong>K: I know it is hard when you have a vision of what you want for yourself in your musical career, how that looks to you may not be what the industry may have seen for you…or where they thought you fit in country music. Was it hard to reposition yourself to fight for what you wanted as your vision for your music moving forward and not concern yourself with looking for validation from others? Believing in yourself and trusting your own instincts…</strong></p><p><strong>Meghan</strong>: <i>“I would say it was hard getting to a place where I had the courage to change the way I was approaching my career, but actually putting it into action was easy. It felt like a weight off my shoulders, like I could take a deep breath for the first time in a while. When you want something so bad, for so long, and it’s not happening how/when you hoped, you get desperate. I know I was, and I thought if I just kept doing what everyone told me to do, and I was a good little soldier, eventually I would win and get to a place where I could call the shots. I could look back and be ashamed of myself for giving into that mentality, but the truth is it happens to most artists at some point in their careers. Especially when you’ve had a taste of that success and you feel it slipping away and you want to do whatever you can to hold onto it.'' </i></p><p><i>‘’At the end of the day, I realized that if I was gonna fall on anyone’s sword, I’d rather it be my own. Even with great songs, and incredible effort, sometimes the stars just don’t line up, but I know now that I will never regret putting out music I love, whether or not the awards shows, radio, or the industry embrace them, I will regret sacrificing who I am to “win” on someone else’s terms. A lot of people and “gatekeepers” in the industry are just as scared as us artists. They don’t really have the answers either, and they are just trying to find the easiest path of least resistance to success and making money. They are rarely in the crowd at your shows, and they aren’t reading the DM’s from your fans telling you how a song you released changed their lives… all they know is a formula that has already worked for someone else. I’m no longer interested in that formula. I’m interested in creating my own original path and doing it in a way that will make me and my team proud when I get to where we’re going.''</i></p><p><strong>K: It is so key to surround yourself with the people and a team that have the same outlook and are on the same page as you are. What has it meant to you to finally have that in place and see the incredible things that have taken place for you this year?</strong></p><p><strong>Meghan</strong>: <i>‘’I can’t say enough about the incredible team I’ve been lucky to surround myself with. They aren’t just amazing at what they do, they are family, and I know that they don’t just care about my success, but also my mental, emotional, and physical well-being. I have watched a lot of artists get run into the ground by a team that has prioritized money and success over the person. It can be a delicate balance to maintain, but I know my team has my back. I also love that my team is largely comprised of powerful women. I didn’t choose to work with them because they’re women, I chose them because there is no one better to do the job, and that is how you create positive change in how women are viewed in the industry… it isn’t a performative statement, the proof is in the pudding. I feel truly blessed to have Randi leading the charge as my manager, and I am also incredibly grateful to have <strong>Chris Kappy</strong>, founder of <strong>Make Wake</strong>, in our corner as a great mentor and advisor. I truly admire the career he and <strong>Luke Combs</strong> have built together and it gives me so much hope knowing that sometimes, good people can, and do win in this industry. I have also found an incredible cheerleader and friend in, the head of my label <strong>Riser House</strong>, <strong>Jennifer Johnson</strong>. As a female president of a new indie label, I know the pressure on her is immense, and yet she has taken a chance on giving me the freedom to be myself, take risks, and blaze my own trail, and that is a rare, but great leader.''</i></p><p><strong>K: I am so thrilled to see you surrounded by a team that champions you and lifts you up…you deserve this with all the sacrifice and hard work you have put into your career. You are amazing and truly inspiring to us all in the music industry and to your fans.<o:p></o:p></strong></p><p><strong>I would imagine that one of those stand-out moments for you was hearing about being asked to debut on the greatest show on earth and hearing from Terri Clark about making your debut on the Opry…tell us how you received that news. </strong></p><p><strong>Meghan</strong>: <i>‘’I was actually shooting the music video for my song “<strong>Ours</strong>”. As I walked on set thinking we were about to start shooting, my director <strong>Ford Fairchild</strong> said, “Oh that’s weird, why is <strong>Terri Clark</strong> FaceTiming me?” I just assumed they worked together and jumped up to jokingly tell her we were busy working, still having NO clue what was about to happen. Ford handed me the phone, and Terri said she just had a quick question for me and wanted to know what I was doing on April 11th. Still clueless, I looked up at Randi to ask her if I was busy haha, still not realizing everyone had their phones up, taking video, and Randi had Mitchell on FaceTime so he could watch it all go down. That’s when Terri said, “Well I know what you’ll be doing… You’ll be making your debut at The Grand Ole Opry” and I just burst into tears. All at once, all the hurt of feeling so undervalued, and unwanted as an artist for years, was released. I felt like all I had heard for so long was “No, not good enough” and now I was getting the biggest YES of my career, and it was coming from one of my heroes. It was a moment I’ll never forget.'' </i><o:p></o:p><o:p></o:p><o:p></o:p><o:p></o:p><o:p></o:p><o:p></o:p><o:p></o:p><o:p></o:p></p><p><o:p></o:p></p><p><strong>K: I know that Terri is a good friend and a mentor to you in many ways. What was it like getting that news from Terri personally?</strong></p><p><strong>Meghan</strong>: ‘<i>’I can’t imagine that moment being any better than it was. I look up to Terri for so many reasons… her songwriting, her musicianship, her big heart, the fact that she is one of few Canadian women to succeed in country music at an international level, and the list goes on. She’s also a damn good golfer and a great angler too.''</i></p><p><strong>K: Can you describe that feeling you had when you received a standing ovation at the Grand Ole Opry for your debut?</strong></p><p><strong>Meghan</strong>: <i>‘’At the risk of sounding cliche, it felt like a dream come true…I’m tearing up now just thinking about it. The truth is, a lot of things we strive for in our careers sometimes don’t end up feeling the way we think they will. In fact, it’s like you’re immediately thinking, what’s next? How do I beat this? My Opry debut and the memory of it, is truly that it was a perfect night, a perfect moment. Just stepping into the circle would have been more than enough, but to have that moment be followed by a standing ovation, and then my first gold record as an artist?! Not to mention, Wild As Me is the first song I ever wrote about my now husband, and I wrote it with two of my best friends. I truly thought I was gonna wake up at any moment and know it was all a dream.''</i></p><p><strong>K: I can’t imagine keeping yourself together when they surprised you by presenting you with a gold record backstage…I don't know how you were able to keep yourself together just coming off the stage from that standing O moment to this insane surprise. </strong></p><p><strong>That perfect moment…a song that you wrote about Mitchell…</strong><span style="color:#222222;"><span lang="EN-GB"><strong><o:p></o:p></strong></span></span></p><p><strong>You announced your new album on the Opry stage…Greatest Show On Dirt…what does it feel like for you to put out a body of work like this one?</strong><o:p></o:p></p><p><strong>Meghan</strong>: <strong>‘’It felt amazing to get to announce that record release on such a legendary stage. Greatest Show On Dirt is the record that represents “The Year Of MFP”, and the era of me truly coming into my own. To announce the release of that record standing where all my heroes have stood, felt like a really good omen.''</strong></p><p><strong>K: These moments are and will be there for you for a lifetime. What I always tell myself is the lows are what help you with character building…the lows prepare you for the incredible highs that will follow. What advice would you give a younger Meghan Patrick today learning all that you have with the success in your career so far? </strong></p><p><strong>Meghan</strong>: <i>‘’I would say, don’t you dare give up. Remember that you wanted to do things the right way, not the easy way, and that takes time and perseverance. Remember that you don’t want success from songs that mean nothing to you. Remember that you got into this for the love of the music, for the fans, to change lives, to empower people, and to make an impact, not for validation from an industry that doesn’t know you, or care about you unless you’re making them money. Remember that the highs are temporary, but so are the lows. Remember that it’s about the journey, not the destination, and this is a marathon, not a sprint. Remember that God will bless you with what is meant for you, and protect you from what isn’t if you’ll get out of your own way. Most of all, listen to your heart and follow your gut.''</i></p><p><strong>K: What is the one thing that you fear the most?</strong></p><p><strong>Meghan</strong>: <i>‘’I fear nothing! Haha just kidding. I think the thing I fear most, is making decisions and sacrifices out of fear. I want to live life bravely, unapologetically, and in a way that I can be proud of, and that the people I love can be proud of. ‘’</i></p><p><strong>K: Let’s talk about your new music…<o:p></o:p></strong></p><p><strong>Tell us about co-writing ‘’The Boy Who Cried Drunk'' and how important it was to shine a light on a difficult subject that was all too familiar in your own life.</strong></p><p><strong>Meghan</strong>: <i>‘’To be honest, I had been sitting on that idea for a while, waiting for the right room to bring it into, waiting for the right moment. I definitely hadn’t planned to write that song that day. When I walked in, <strong>Billy Dawson</strong> was sitting there with a baritone guitar playing this riff, and I absolutely loved it. It was the first time I had ever met <strong>Jacob Hackworth</strong>, and as I was looking through my “<strong>hook book</strong>” for a song idea, I came across ‘’<strong>The Boy Who Cried Drunk</strong>.'' I looked up at Jacob and said, “I know we just met, but how heavy are you willing to get in this write today? Cuz I have an idea, and this guitar riff feels perfect for it”. I explained my idea, and they both loved it. I told them both a little bit about my story and what I had been through, and I knew right away that I was in a safe place, and I was ready to write that song. I never would have thought I would write something like that with two men I barely knew, but I have so much love and respect for the way they both handled it. They gave me all the space in that room to tell my story the way I wanted to. They made me feel comfortable and like they had my back. They both are amazing writers who brought so many great moments to that song and I think we all knew we had something special that day.''</i><o:p></o:p><o:p></o:p><o:p></o:p><o:p></o:p><o:p></o:p><o:p></o:p><o:p></o:p><o:p></o:p><o:p></o:p><o:p></o:p></p><p dir="ltr">Each year, more than 12 Million people across the nation experience some form of domestic violence and Meghan Patrick is shining a light on domestic violence survivors through the release of her new single “<a class="no-pjax" href="https://music.apple.com/us/artist/meghan-patrick/1081611424" data-link-type="url"><strong>The Boy Who Cried Drunk</strong></a> (The Demo),” available now via <a class="no-pjax" href="https://riserhouse.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" title="This external link will open in a new window" onclick="return Webmail.Widgets.Email.Message.evLinkClick(this);"><strong>Riser House Records</strong></a> / <a class="no-pjax" href="https://www.theorchard.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" title="This external link will open in a new window" onclick="return Webmail.Widgets.Email.Message.evLinkClick(this);"><strong>The Orchard</strong></a> on all streaming platforms. Written by Patrick alongside <strong>Billy Dawson</strong> and <strong>Jacob Hackworth</strong>, the thought-provoking track details the telltale warning signs that come with a toxic partner, as Patrick sings of an all-too-familiar story from her past – one that she was able to escape and learn from – in the hopes of helping others leave or avoid stepping into her shoes, altogether. </p><p dir="ltr"><strong>K: In addition to this poignant track, you are currently raising money through next month for YWCA Nashville & Middle Tennessee, which operates the largest domestic violence shelter in Tennessee.

Tell us about that….</strong></p><p dir="ltr"><strong>Meghan</strong>: <i>‘’I was already a big fan of the LANCO guys before this tour, but I am an even bigger one now. I’ll start with the incredible musicianship on that stage… their live show is so so good, they are all fantastic musicians, and Brandon is one hell of a frontman. I don’t always go out and watch every show for every artist I open for, but I’ve sacrificed a couple of hours of sleep more than once to stay and watch their set. I also have immense respect for the way they are coming back and rebuilding after some downtime. I know it ain’t easy, but I watch them give the same high-energy, entertaining show night after night, regardless of the crowd… I really look up to those guys, and they’ve become great friends.''</i></p><p dir="ltr"><strong>K: It has always been so important to you to deliver songs that are so authentic and true to you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing such an incredible song on a subject that we all need to help and use our platforms for. I also share a history of suffering domestic violence. What has been the response from fans once this song came out?</strong></p><p dir="ltr"><strong>Meghan</strong>: <i>‘’The response has been overwhelming honestly. In a good way, It is definitely having a huge impact, which is what I hoped for, but it is also really heavy to know that it is having such an impact because so many people have experienced it. Some days I would get so many messages and DM’s that it just made me really angry and sad, especially when they were from people who are still in it. I felt so helpless in those moments and had to remind myself that change starts slow and small, and maybe I can’t save or help everyone, but at least this is a start. Although we released the song in honour of Domestic Violence Awareness Month, I plan to continue this work throughout my whole career. The more my platform grows, the more I will be able to help, and so for me, this is just the beginning. My dream is to eventually have my own foundation or charity, and I’m so grateful to everyone who has donated or helped me in my efforts. ‘’</i><span style="color:#222222;"><span lang="EN-GB"><strong><o:p></o:p></strong><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p style="text-align:center;" dir="ltr"><strong>Meghan Patrick - The Boy Who Cried Drunk (Demo)</strong></p><div class="video-container size_xl justify_center" style=""><iframe data-video-type="youtube" data-video-id="ke5ffi9PJjo" data-video-thumb-url="" type="text/html" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ke5ffi9PJjo?rel=0&wmode=transparent&enablejsapi=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="true"></iframe></div><p><strong>K: Let's talk about your new single ‘’God and a Good Man''. This is a very special song. Tell us about the writing for this song. This song means everything to me.

How has meeting your husband Mitchell Tenpenny and the faith you share together, changed your life?</strong></p><p><strong>Meghan</strong>: <i>‘’The day I wrote this song, was the day I decided I was ready to be baptized. I was going to write with two of my best friends, Dallas Wilson and Trannie Anderson, and I knew that’s who I wanted to write it with. Not only are they close friends to both Mitchell and me, but they both have a strong faith and have been there for me many times in my journey to pray with me and answer my questions. As I was heading to the write, I started thinking about the many similarities between my relationship with God and with my husband. I’ll say this, I’m grateful they both had infinite patience and enough love to carry me through my doubts. They are both a safe place for me, and they both make me a better person every day, and I wanted to write a song to honour them.'' </i></p><p><strong>K: Tell us about the music video for God and a Good Man…</strong><o:p></o:p></p><p><strong>Meghan</strong>: <i>‘’We shot that video at my friends Colt and Ashlee’s farm.

Tell us about that…</strong></p><p dir="ltr"><strong>Meghan</strong>: <i>‘’Well actually my first headlining shows in Canada were right before the pandemic, but this was the first time headlining in Canada since then. Playing a headlining tour is always incredibly nerve-racking because you feel very exposed in terms of wondering how many people are truly big enough fans to spend their hard-earned money just to see you. This year was especially scary because I felt like my career in Canada had really taken a hit from COVID, the loss of my record deal, and subsequently a lack of radio success over the past few years. Regardless of the tickets sold, I know that the fans I’ve made are for a lifetime. They are passionate, loyal, and kind people. It is an awesome feeling to know that there are people in the front row who have been in my front row for 7 plus years, and that tells me I must be doing something right!‘’</i></p><p dir="ltr"><strong>K: You have some new dates that start Nov 14th and heading into January of 2024.

Making an introductory statement with her critically acclaimed, chart-dominating, six-week U.S. #1 Dustin Lynch duet “<strong>Thinking 'Bout You</strong>,” Porter now returns with lightning-like summer jam “<strong>Chasing Tornadoe</strong>s,” teasing what's to come on her full-length <strong>Big Loud Records</strong> debut. Making her mark with standout hits such as “<strong>Pickup</strong>,” which earned her a 2023 <strong>CMT Music Awards nomination</strong> for <strong>Breakthrough Female Video of the Year</strong>, and best-known head-bobber “<strong>These Days</strong>,” her "mesmerizing vocals and hook-driven songs'' (Billboard) continue to spark headline-worthy moments and accolades. Standing alone as the only female in her category nominated for <strong>Favorite Country Song</strong> at the <strong>2022 American Music Awards</strong>, the<strong> 2022 MusicRow Discovery Artist of the Year</strong> has additionally earned <strong>22 CCMA nominations</strong>, including a nod for <strong>Entertainer of the Year</strong>. Most recently <strong>winning Musical Collaboration of the Year</strong> at the <strong>2023 CCMA awards</strong>, Porter continues to be a trailblazer in her field. The first female this century to have six #1 songs on Canadian country radio, Porter claimed her first crossover Top 10 on Canadian pop radio with “<strong>These Days</strong> (Remix)” – the first since 2003 for a Canadian country artist. The triple threat is a member of CMT's elite Next Women of Country Class of 2021, and previously starred as an actress in the cult-followed sci-fi television series <strong>Travelers</strong>. Having toured the globe opening for Blake Shelton, Kenny Chesney, Walker Hayes, Jordan Davis, Brad Paisley, Dallas Smith, and Rascal Flatts, Porter is on the road now for her first headlining Canadian tour.</p><p style="text-align:center;"><strong>MacKenzie Porter - Chasing Tornadoes</strong></p><div class="video-container size_xl justify_center" style=""><iframe data-video-type="youtube" data-video-id="xJX4jAEpsp0" data-video-thumb-url="" type="text/html" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/xJX4jAEpsp0?rel=0&wmode=transparent&enablejsapi=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="true"></iframe></div><div style="box-sizing:border-box;margin:0px;padding:0px;text-align:center;"><img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/s:bzglfiles/u/139421/31989f32031a476139ea47ff1f96138242f89e23/original/elijah-woods.jpg/!!/meta:eyJzcmNCdWNrZXQiOiJiemdsZmlsZXMifQ==" class="size_l justify_center border_" /></div><div style="box-sizing:border-box;margin:0px;padding:0px;text-align:center;"> </div><div style="box-sizing:border-box;margin:0px;padding:0px;text-align:center;"><span><strong>CONNECT WITH ELIJAH WOODS</strong></span></div><div style="box-sizing:border-box;margin:0px;padding:0px;text-align:center;">

While still in her teens, the Canadian Country Music Association recognized Genevieve’s emerging talent with her CCMA performance selection at the 2012 New Artist Showcase in Saskatoon.

Her producer on the track was, once again, Nashville's <strong>Jason Massey</strong> with mixing by <strong>Billy Decker</strong>.

data-link-type="url"><span style="color:#0ac4ec;"><strong>Music's Journey INTERVIEW #229 w/ Country Artist Cole Bradley Unveils His New EP ''Back On A Beach'' and His Summer Banger ‘’Way I Drink''</strong></span></a></p><p>For Canadian-born, country, singer-songwriter <a class="no-pjax" href="https://playitcole.com/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(30,75%,60%);"><strong>Cole Bradley</strong></span></a>, life’s always been about summer. Today, he invites you to celebrate the sun in style with the release of his new EP <a class="no-pjax" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/back-on-a-beach-ep/1681914561" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(0,75%,60%);"><strong>Back On A Beach</strong></span></a>, and focus track “<a class="no-pjax" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/back-on-a-beach-ep/1681914561" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(0,75%,60%);"><strong>Way I Drink</strong></span></a>”, out today via <strong>Kala Records</strong>. Produced by Grammy winner <strong>Noah Gordon</strong> (Keith Urban, Billy Ray Cyrus, Darius Rucker), and <strong>Sandy Chila</strong> (Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera), the EP is reminiscent of country stars like Jake Owen, Sam Hunt, and Brett Kissel. "<a class="no-pjax" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/back-on-a-beach-ep/1681914561" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(0,75%,60%);"><strong>Way I Drink</strong></span></a>" is currently on Spotify's New Music Friday Country playlist. <br><br>Bradley’s greatest summer memories have been over one too many Jamesons in the backyard and cruising down the middle of the lake with speakers blaring. It’s where he’s had his first brush with true love and his toughest of heartbreaks. His summer anthems like, ‘<a class="no-pjax" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/back-on-a-beach-ep/1681914561" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(0,75%,60%);"><strong>Way I Drink</strong></span></a>”, “<a class="no-pjax" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/back-on-a-beach-ep/1681914561" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(0,75%,60%);"><strong>Back On A Beach</strong></span></a>”, and “<a class="no-pjax" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/back-on-a-beach-ep/1681914561" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(0,75%,60%);"><strong>Headed Home</strong></span></a>”, tell the stories of lived experiences and rowdy nights out with best friends that stick with you forever. These attributes along with Bradley’s signature vocal style are what make his new five-track EP, <a class="no-pjax" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/back-on-a-beach-ep/1681914561" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(0,75%,60%);"><strong>Back On A Beac</strong></span></a><span style="color:hsl(0,75%,60%);"><strong>h</strong></span>, an anthem-filled banger. Written between Nashville, and L.A., it’s a piece of work that embodies how far Bradley’s songwriting has grown since his debut album, <strong>My Boots</strong>, in 2016. The EP is hooky, positive, and upbeat with an infectious energy not all artists can create. His passion for performing and edgy country sound puts him a step above his peers. <br><br>The EP’s second track and radio single, “<a class="no-pjax" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/back-on-a-beach-ep/1681914561" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(0,75%,60%);"><strong>Way I Drink</strong></span></a>”, is exactly the fun-filled knockout one thinks of when one hears the name, <a class="no-pjax" href="https://playitcole.com/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(30,75%,60%);"><strong>Cole Bradley</strong></span></a>. Its up-tempo rhythm, fun melodies, and crazy lyrics mean business when it comes to getting the party started. It highlights all the stupid things you find yourself getting into on a wild night out. It’s an ode to those who are the life of the party. Whether you’re hearing it at an unruly <a class="no-pjax" href="https://playitcole.com/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(30,75%,60%);"><strong>Cole Bradley</strong></span></a> concert or you hear it blasting on country radio, “<a class="no-pjax" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/back-on-a-beach-ep/1681914561" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(0,75%,60%);"><strong>Way I Drink</strong></span></a>” is about to be your new obsession. <br><br>Showing no signs of slowing down, this summer Bradley will be bringing the party on the road.

Having worked with world-class writers and opening for iconic country acts like Thomas Rhett and High Valley among others, Bradley is just getting started.

this year. </p><p>The 22-year-old musician, originally from Weyburn, Saskatchewan, hangs his hat in Lethbridge.</p><p>Brayden has been out on tour since May 16th to open a western Canadian tour, which goes all over Alberta and B.C. and ends in Regina on June 3rd with his good friend, country artist <strong>Beamer Wigley</strong>.</p><p>‘’I had the chance to catch up with Brayden to talk about his

this,” King admitted.</p><p><span style="color:rgb(34,34,34);">"One day I woke up to a DM (direct message) on Instagram from an American Idol casting producer. She's like, 'Hey Brayden, I've seen your videos on TikTok and I really like your voice. Would you like to potentially audition for American Idol?' "</span></p><p>King said he has spoken about how he felt the shows are possibly scripted after friends of his had negative experiences with them, he said without getting into details he was against shows like American Idol for a long time.</p><p>However, after being approached by American Idol who saw his singing videos on TikTok, King said he realized there was nothing to lose in accepting an invitation to try out for the show.</p><p>“When they approached me and said they’d fly me down and pay for everything, I realized I had nothing to lose and I might as well go and try it,” he said.</p><p>Before performing for the three celebrity judges, King said he first had to make it past two virtual auditions with executive producers.</p><p>After two successful virtual auditions, King said he was then given the opportunity to perform in front of the three celebrity judges at a hotel in Las Vegas.</p><p>“I went in and they [the judges] were very kind and we talked for quite a while and then I sang an original song of mine called ‘Down That Road’ and I honestly wasn’t very nervous in the moment,” King said.</p><p>“I definitely didn’t prepare in a similar way as I do for a show. When we go to play a show it’s like the boys and I all together smack each other on the backs and we go. Here I didn’t have the boys and there wasn’t a crowd, it’s a totally different performing experience,” King said.</p><p>After the audition, King said Bryan, Perry, and Richie got him to bring his father into the room and broke the news that they had unanimously agreed to put him through to the Hollywood round.</p><p>“It has been a very cool experience for me and I’m very thankful,” King said. “The coolest part for me has been meeting all the other artists from all these different places in America that I got to meet; it’s been a crazy experience.”</p><p>"Katy said, 'Well Greg, Lionel gave Brayden a yes, and I want to give you a yes,' and then Luke said, 'I'm going to give him his third yes.' " King recounted. "And then they all screamed together, 'You're going to Hollywood.' "</p><p>He advanced through the first two rounds of “Hollywood Week”, and finished in the Top 55.</p><p>‘’All I would say is I don’t think I’ll ever be that nervous again in my life. So for any upcoming performances. I don’t normally get nervous but I don’t know if there will ever be a high-pressure situation quite like that. So it just set me up for I don’t think there will be anything to be scared of going on any stage or doing anything in my career because that was freaky. And I met so many like-minded artists and took away a lot of friends from that whole scenario. it was pretty cool,” he said.</p><p>‘’So pretty cool,” he said adding he said he enjoyed the experience.</p><p>‘’<a class="no-pjax" href="https://www.braydenkingmusic.com/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(210,75%,60%);"><strong>Brayden King</strong></span></a> released his new single ‘’<a class="no-pjax" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/brayden-king/1535886120" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(0,75%,60%);"><strong>Livin' The Dream</strong></span></a>'' in March of this year.''</p><p>“‘It is one of the coolest things in the world, honestly. I never expected this song to do anything like it has been. So It's a real blessing and I’m very thankful,” he said.</p><p>“<a class="no-pjax" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/brayden-king/1535886120" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(0,75%,60%);"><strong>Livin' the Dream</strong></span></a> was written about a hangover and it’s kind of funny how it comes out with a positive-sounding feel with but a bit of darker undertones in the lyrics. But it is definitely an anthemic sing-a-long song and people have been loving it. I wrote it with a couple of buddies of mine, Drew Shalka and Mark Maclure out of Edmonton just super stoked with how it turned out and people have been loving this one, so it’s a real blessing they have had such a great response” he said.</p><p>King gives each crowd a high-energy, hard-hitting performance, and leaves them wanting more. “If you’re looking for a party, I’ll bring it every single time,” says King. </p><p>His next single “<a class="no-pjax" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/0fCguqEo1gADoSkTGI47qJ" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(150,75%,60%);"><strong>Bad Night to Be A Beer</strong></span></a>” is also the name of his new tour.</p><p>“I am touring with a full band. We’re having a blast. We started off in Lethbridge on May 16th and headed out to Red Deer, Calgary, Edmonton, Grand Prairie, and then into B.C. doing Sicamous, Kamloops, Penticton, Kelowna, and Vancouver. And then we hopped back to my home province. We are doing three shows in Saskatchewan in Saskatoon, Weyburn, and Regina to end it off. It’s been a lot of fun,” he said.</p><p>His band for this tour includes guitarist <strong>Roman Koslowski</strong>, drummer <strong>Cody Mack</strong> and bassist <strong>Cam Dougall</strong> and

I chatted with him for a while and realized that this was a life-changing moment for him and for me. He said that he had listened to my EP every single day and that it saved his life.

Thanks to his partnership with <strong>multi-award-winning Producer</strong> <strong>Jeff “Diesel” Dalziel</strong>, which he credits as a defining turning point in his career, Aaron has learned to craft songs that stand out in the Country landscape. After only 3 years of professional activity, Aaron is a mainstay on Canadian Country radio, with 7 of his 8 released tracks securing rotation at various stations in Canada, earning him close to 10,000 spins to date. A notable success that was partly made possible thanks to the steady encouragement of his most dedicated supporters, the editorial curators of Apple Music Canada, who have championed him from his first release. Aaron has been and continues to be featured on 17 different Apple Music playlists since his debut single, including 10 of the 30 Country specific playlists a feat that allowed him to receive over 4.5 million streams through the streaming platform. </span></p><p><span>A true writer at heart, </span><a class="no-pjax" href="https://www.aaronallenmusic.com/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(30,75%,60%);"><span><strong>Aaron Allen</strong></span></span></a><span> wasted no time to leverage these early successes into a flourishing songwriter career, earning his 1st Top 40 record in Canada in 2022 with Warner Music’s <strong>David Boyd Janes</strong>’ “<strong>It Couldn’t Hurt</strong>”. Now an in-demand partner on both sides of the border, he wrote over 300 songs in the past year, with collaborators including James Barker, Jimmy Thow, Danny Mirank, and Phil Barton (Brett Kissel, Lee Briten) all the while building an ongoing relationship with Nashville-based Demolition Publishing (Kenny Chesney, Lee Brice, Maddie & Tae). A flurry of partnerships led to his signing by Arts & Crafts Publishing in early 2021 to develop the sync side of his career. Allen landed his first sync with CTV’s Hallmark series “<strong>Ride</strong>” in April 2023. With clear momentum behind his singular brand, the ear of influential tastemakers, and a top-level team behind him, Aaron has become a mainstay in Canadian Country Music. </span></p><p

data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(0,75%,60%);"><strong>Find A Better Way</strong></span></a>.” The single was released by <a class="no-pjax" href="https://gypsysoulrecords.com/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(210,75%,60%);"><strong>Gypsy Soul Records</strong></span></a> on Tuesday, March 7th. </p><p>A rock anthem to its core, the title track, “<a class="no-pjax"

encapsulates the entirety of the record. With growing uncertainties, society faces challenges previously unseen, leaving the collective in a perpetual state of questioning, with doubt directed towards governments, public leaders, and our neighbours. From the aftermath of COVID-19, the increasing mental health crisis in North America, war crimes in Ukraine, and the explosion of social movements and protests, one thought unites us all—we need to find a better way to co-exist on this planet. “<a class="no-pjax" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/the-commoners/948762323" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(0,75%,60%);"><strong>Find A Better Way</strong></span></a>” takes an inward look at confronting our tumultuous past and accepting personal accountabilities to uncover the strength needed to seek a solution.</p><p>“<a class="no-pjax" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/the-commoners/948762323" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(0,75%,60%);"><strong>Find a Better Way</strong></span></a>” is the only track on the record to be mixed in Australia. The band worked with legend Producer/Mixer <strong>Kevin Shirley</strong> (the Black Crowes, Joe Bonamassa, Led Zeppelin) at <strong>Caveman Studios</strong> in Sydney. Kevin’s mix helped set the perfect tone for the album, which <a class="no-pjax" href="https://thecommoners.ca/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(30,75%,60%);"><strong>Ross Hayes Citrullo</strong></span></a> was then able to follow for the rest of the record.

For this stage, the team sent their record all the way to Nashville, Tennessee to <strong>Pete Lyman</strong> (Tedeschi Trucks, Blackberry Smoke, Chris Stapleton, Rival Sons) at Infrasonic Sound. Pete’s specialty for mastering southern rock made the mixes come alive, making them sonically competitive to the band’s influences.</p><p><a class="no-pjax" href="https://thecommoners.ca/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(30,75%,60%);"><strong>The Commoners</strong></span></a> is a Canadian rock band that is comprised of <a class="no-pjax" href="https://thecommoners.ca/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(30,75%,60%);"><strong>Chris Medhurst</strong></span></a> on lead vocals & guitar, <span style="color:hsl(30,75%,60%);"><strong>R</strong></span><a class="no-pjax" href="https://thecommoners.ca/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(30,75%,60%);"><strong>oss Hayes Citrullo</strong></span></a> on lead guitar, <a class="no-pjax" href="https://thecommoners.ca/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(30,75%,60%);"><strong>Ben Spiller</strong></span></a> on bass & piano, and <a class="no-pjax" href="https://thecommoners.ca/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(30,75%,60%);"><strong>Adam Cannon</strong></span></a> on drums.

data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(210,75%,60%);"><strong>Griffen Palmer</strong></span></a> emerges with his debut album <a class="no-pjax" href="https://music.apple.com/us/artist/griffen-palmer/1502461748" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(0,75%,60%);"><strong>Unlearn</strong></span></a>, a first in-depth glimpse into the Ontarian’s highly-acclaimed lyricism. Having secured writing cuts for the likes of <strong>Keith Urban</strong>, <strong>Florida Georgia Line,</strong> and <strong>Mackenzie Porter</strong>, there’s a <strong>Music City </strong>buzz building around Palmer, and with that success comes great expectation.</p><p>A chance meeting with mega-hit songwriter <strong>Geoff Warburton</strong> at a house party opened a dream door for the budding singer-songwriter, forming the basis for this project on which Warburton co-wrote every track. His touch of pop-leaning know-how and melodic mastery adds a layer of incredible mainstream appeal.</p><p>Finding solace in music in the early pandemic, Palmer wrote every song on <a class="no-pjax" href="https://music.apple.com/us/artist/griffen-palmer/1502461748" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(0,75%,60%);"><strong>Unlearn</strong></span></a> with Grammy-nominated songwriter and fellow Ontario native <strong>Geoff Warburton</strong>. The 10-track album kicks off with “<a class="no-pjax" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/00b93R5OC1EHaBxEdQUfAQ?si=rVJ2vL_eQLqt4N6DJUMelg&nd=1" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(150,75%,60%);"><strong>Second Guessing</strong></span></a>” and jumps headfirst into life lessons, both learned and unlearned, on songs like “<a class="no-pjax" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/00b93R5OC1EHaBxEdQUfAQ?si=rVJ2vL_eQLqt4N6DJUMelg&nd=1" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(150,75%,60%);"><strong>By The Way</strong></span></a>,” “<a class="no-pjax" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/00b93R5OC1EHaBxEdQUfAQ?si=rVJ2vL_eQLqt4N6DJUMelg&nd=1" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(150,75%,60%);"><strong>Came Here To Leave</strong></span></a>,” “<a class="no-pjax" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/00b93R5OC1EHaBxEdQUfAQ?si=rVJ2vL_eQLqt4N6DJUMelg&nd=1" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(150,75%,60%);"><strong>How Many Beers</strong></span></a>,” and the flirty, simmering “<a class="no-pjax" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/00b93R5OC1EHaBxEdQUfAQ?si=rVJ2vL_eQLqt4N6DJUMelg&nd=1" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(150,75%,60%);"><strong>Bottles On The Table</strong></span></a>.”</p><p><i>“Geoff and I met by chance because of a house party in my hometown, his girlfriend (now fiancé) introduced us,” Palmer remembers. “He took a chance and got to know me, which is when we figured out that we both played for the same rugby club, love a lot of the same music, and eventually realized we like writing together. Geoff’s family to me, and this record wouldn’t exist without him.”</i></p><p><i>“Griff continues to blow me away every time we write,” shares Warburton. “He’s mature beyond his years, and I think so many people will really resonate with his story. I’m so proud of him and these songs, and can’t wait for the rest of the world to hear them.”</i></p><p>Brought to life by studio master/producer <strong>Joey Moi</strong>, the set of Palmer/Warburton one-two punches shows off their knack for crafting ultra-catchy hooks with heartfelt appeal, with Palmer’s sharp, crystalline vocal serving as a critical anchor throughout.</p><p>“<a class="no-pjax" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/00b93R5OC1EHaBxEdQUfAQ?si=rVJ2vL_eQLqt4N6DJUMelg&nd=1" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(150,75%,60%);"><strong>Second Guessing</strong></span></a>” was the debut single that showcased what we all already knew about <a class="no-pjax" href="https://griffenpalmer.com/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(210,75%,60%);"><strong>Griffen Palmer</strong></span></a> and the hip is real for a reason with his release of the highly anticipated debut album ‘’<a class="no-pjax" href="https://music.apple.com/us/artist/griffen-palmer/1502461748" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(0,75%,60%);"><strong>Unlearn</strong></span></a>'', says <a class="no-pjax" href="www.musicsjourney.com" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(210,75%,60%);"><strong>Kim Cyr</strong></span></a>, Editor in Chief for <a class="no-pjax" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(270,75%,60%);"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a>, radio host, and host of the International <a class="no-pjax" href="www.musicsjourney.com" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(240,75%,60%);"><strong>Music's Journey Podcast</strong></span></a>.<strong> </strong> ‘’It marked the beginning for this rising singer/songwriter.

Palmer’s knack for songwriting is obvious, and he has the vocals to back it up. The love song is a confident portrayal of what it feels like to be with the right person. </p><p><i>“That since I met you, I // I ain’t spent one second guessin’ // Lord knows I’ve tried // ‘Cause I’ve had my heart broken in every direction // Too many times // But I saw the rest of my life with one look in your eyes // I’m confessing // That I ain’t spent one second guessin'”</i></p><p>Palmer released Unlearn‘s powerful, retrospective title track along with its accompanying performance video. Vulnerability on full display, Palmer voices his most personal lyric yet, juxtaposing the journey to “unlearn” beliefs about love and relationships born from his formative years growing up in a divorced home, against the hope and discovery of finding out what love can look like in a relationship all his own.</p><p><i>“This one meant a lot to me when we wrote it, and that feeling grows for me every time we play it,” Palmer shares about the title track. “It’s a song that I really needed when I was younger, so I’m hoping that people out there that feel like I did when I was a kid might hear it now. I just hope it makes them feel understood.”</i></p><p style="text-align:center;"><strong>Griffen Palmer - Unlearn (Performance Video)</strong></p><div class="video-container size_xl justify_center" style=""><iframe data-video-type="youtube" data-video-id="kousldgbRe8" data-video-thumb-url="" type="text/html" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/kousldgbRe8?rel=0&wmode=transparent&enablejsapi=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="true"></iframe></div><p><i>‘’It’s been a bit of an interesting process that I don’t think is typical for a first album because we’ve had so long to work on it. I moved to Nashville four years ago but I knew Geoff before then when I was working a restaurant job back home before I was doing this professionally. We really just had four-plus years of creating songs and gathering different types of sounds and ideas. By the time the record and the A&R process were here, we had to narrow down hundreds of songs. The world was our oyster at that point and it was just about picking the songs that felt right or felt unique, or unique to me at least. It was overwhelming at first but I feel good about what we’ve done.''</i></p><p><i>‘’You really have to just take yourself a step back and listen to them as if you were listening to them for the first time. Some of them are ones you’ve written within the last few months that are fresh in your brain, and some of them are years old. Putting them up to each other objectively is kind of tricky but that’s where a great team around you comes in with Joey Moi, my producer, and my management who helped A&R the project. Everyone has their favourites so when I bring them to the table, it starts to make a bit more sense.''</i></p><p><i>‘’It’s just fun as an artist to try different things, especially when it’s your first project. You don’t really know how everything’s gonna go or how everything is going to be perceived so it’s a chance for you to just try something different and try something new and go from there.''</i></p><p>Palmer and Warburton’s songwriting partnership has also led to outside cuts like Keith Urban‘s “<strong>Polaroid</strong>,” and standouts from <strong>The Band Camino</strong>, <strong>Chelsea Cutler</strong>, <strong>Lily Rose</strong>, <strong>Jade Eagleson,</strong> and more.</p><p>Palmer is currently on the road this spring nationwide supporting label-mate Lily Rose‘s 2023 headline tour.</p><p><strong>Unlearn Track Listing:</strong></p><ol>

(<strong>MDM Recordings Inc./Universal Music Canada</strong>). With an impressive 19M collective streams to date across all songs, the latest track and video offer a unique perspective on what it means to hold on to the ones you love. Directed by <strong>Ryan Nolan</strong>, the video showcases James in a third-party role panning from scenes in a bar with subtle dialogue between the country artist and a couple, to stunning scenic views where he shares his perspective on the relationship. The single released last year, once again finds James joining forces with award-winning producer <strong>Danick Dupelle</strong> as he channels a new and evolved sound.</p><p>About the new video, James shares <i>‘’''Let Her Go' is so impactful for me. The lyrics are powerful, the story is relatable, and visually capturing and displaying those sentiments in the right way was incredibly important to me. When Ryan Nolan (Director) decided to drag us to a random ski town in New Mexico to film, I knew it was going to be something special. The visuals he captured are quite simply stunning, and his direction services the song so that it brings it to life in a whole new way. I've always thought a well-executed video has the ability to enhance the impact of a song for the listener, bringing to life in their mind the story, lyrics, and meaning in a whole new way, and Ryan has done just that.''</i></p><p style="text-align:center;"><strong>David James - Let Her Go (Official Music Video)</strong></p><div class="video-container size_xl justify_center" style=""><iframe data-video-type="youtube" data-video-id="fje3MiSO7Lo" data-video-thumb-url="" type="text/html" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/fje3MiSO7Lo?rel=0&wmode=transparent&enablejsapi=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="true"></iframe></div><p style="text-align:center;"><a class="no-pjax" href="https://www.musicsjourney.com/1084946/12706823-music-s-journey-interview-214-w-ccma-nominated-country-artist-david-james-s-latest-single-let-her-go-music-video" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:#0ac4ec;"><strong>Music's Journey INTERVIEW #214 w/ CCMA Nominated Country Artist David James's Latest Single ‘’Let Her Go'' Music Video</strong></span></a></p><p>ABOUT <a class="no-pjax" href="https://davidjamesmusic.ca/" data-link-type="url"><span>DAVID JAMES</span></a><span>: Following his 2014 signing with MDM Recordings Inc., </span><a class="no-pjax" href="https://mdmrecordings.net/david-james/" data-link-type="url"><span>David James</span></a><span> has consistently delivered. The 2016 release of his debut EP ‘Songs About A Girl” garnered the Manitoba native two CCMA Award nominations including a nod in the ‘Rising Star’ category, his debut performance at the highly celebrated Boots and Hearts Music Festival, and a Canadian Radio Music Award nomination for ‘Best New Group or Solo Artist: Country’. His 2017 sophomore album Downtown Kids, spawned James’ first and second Top 15 hits and most successful singles to date with ‘<strong>Sun Set On It</strong>’ and the title-track earworm, and he was nominated for four <strong>Manitoba Country Music Association Awards</strong> including ‘<strong>Male Artist of the Year</strong>’. In 2018, James dropped ‘<strong>Cars, Girls, & The Radio</strong>’ and hit the road in 2019 as the featured guest on Aaron Pritchett’s “<strong>Out On The Town</strong>” tour, stopping in over 50 cities across Canada before wrapping in the fall of that same year. ‘<strong>All The Time</strong>’, released in the summer of 2019, became James’ fastest climbing song on radio to date, boasting over 2.5 million collective streams. The companion video debuted on CMT in the U.S. as part of their ‘<strong>Next Up Now Program</strong>’, and later that year James was awarded ‘<strong>Male Artist of the Year</strong>” at the <strong>MCMA Awards</strong>. His EP If I Were You dropped in the spring of 2020 and that September, he partnered with <strong>Genevieve Fisher</strong> to reimagine the track ‘<strong>Then There’s You</strong>’, transforming his solo recording into a smooth duet that highlights both artists’ sparkling vocals. The Top 30 bop ‘<strong>Don’t Mind If I Do</strong>’ was James’ first release in 2021 and the soundtrack of spring, and his release ‘<strong>That’s The Life</strong>’ dropped late last year with a traditional radio version, and a unique version created in partnership with <strong>True North Sports & Entertainment</strong> and <strong>The Winnipeg Jets</strong>.

Co-written and produced by <a class="no-pjax" href="https://nickelback.com/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(210,75%,60%);"><strong>Chad Kroeger</strong></span></a>, the crooning country ballad displays a new depth to Teigen as both a songwriter and performer. The emotion of the track radiates from her vocals, with Teigen's distinctive tone and lawless vibrato penetrating the heart of listeners. </p><p><i>‘’I wrote this song with </i><a class="no-pjax" href="https://nickelback.com/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(210,75%,60%);"><i><strong>Chad Kroeger</strong></i></span></a><i> and <strong>Simon Clow</strong>, and it's one of my favourites to date,'' Teigen shares. ‘’It was so fun to create this song with them and bring out this level of vulnerability.</i></p><p><i>After we finished writing, Chad and </i><a class="no-pjax" href="http://www.chrisbaseford.com/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(210,75%,60%);"><i><strong>Chris Baseford</strong></i></span></a><i> ended up producing it.

Teigen digs deep to connect with her own heartbreak on a track filled with emotion around the fears of love and loss. The song captures the raw struggle between the desire for true love and the risks that inevitably come when you gamble with your heart. Teigen delivers powerful vocals that tell the real story perfectly. She has shown why her star continues to climb with every new single she releases. I am a huge fan.

sure-footed everyman approach – expanding the songwriting and style that has helped define today’s country music. In saying this, Hicks had his label debut ten years ago with the release of his album <strong>Throw Down</strong>. He is now reflecting on this past decade with the release of “<a class="no-pjax" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/talk-to-time/1636712136" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(0,75%,60%);"><strong>Talk To Time</strong></span></a>” to Canadian country radio and the unveiling of the official video, which premiered exclusively across <strong>IHeartRadio / Pure Country</strong> platforms on February 21. “<a class="no-pjax" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/talk-to-time/1636712136" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(0,75%,60%);"><strong>Talk to Time</strong></span></a>” is the title track of his fifth studio album, released last September. Travis Didluck directed the beautifully nostalgic music video. The new release comes just in time to celebrate his Top 10 single "<strong>Stompin' Ground</strong>" receiving <strong>Platinum</strong> status in Canada.</p><p>"Did you ever wish you could slow down time? I think about it often. As a father of two, and a musician 10 years into his career, this song means a lot to me, and really hits home,” Hicks shares. "The video turned out awesome too! We shot it on a REALLY cold and windy day underneath the Burlington Skyway. Somehow, through the magic of filmmaking, you can’t even tell I was frozen to the bone! ”</p><p>The release of "<a class="no-pjax" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/talk-to-time/1636712136" data-link-type="url"><strong>Talk To Time</strong></a>" follows back-to-back Top 10 singles on radio, and the announcement of summer festival dates across the country including Boots & Hearts, Dauphin's Country Fest, Country on the Bay, and Country Rocks the Farm.

Continuing the momentum, today Cooper is sharing his first new music of the year with the release of “</span><a class="no-pjax" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/the-other-guy/1670044856?i=1670044874" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(0,75%,60%);"><strong>The Other Guy</strong></span></a><span style="color:black;">.” Giving fans another sneak peek of what’s to come from his sophomore album, the new single showcases the evolution of Cooper’s sound and the depth of his lyrical storytelling as he takes the listener out for a potentially regrettable night on the town.</span></p><p><span style="color:black;">Is the new track based on a true story? <i>‘’Well, a gentleman doesn’t kiss and tell, but with today’s release, it’s easy to see why Cooper’s decade of songwriting experience is turning heads. “There is a thrill in doing the opposite of what you’re supposed to do and that is what I wanted to capture with this new track,” said Cooper. “Musically it’s bolder than anything we’ve ever done and lyrically as well. It’s about being careless and doing things on your own terms; letting your rebellious side come out without worrying what the repercussions might be, even if only for one night.”</i></span></p><p><span style="color:black;">Written by Cooper and <strong>Aaron Pollock</strong>, the new track was one he always knew he’d record. <i>“I started playing it live as soon as we wrote it, and there were actually a few times that it got requested again before the night was over,” says Cooper. “I knew that both the song and myself had to grow and evolve before I could release it and with this next musical chapter it finally felt like the timing was right.”</i></span></p><p><span style="color:black;">The official music video for “</span><a class="no-pjax" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/the-other-guy/1670044856?i=1670044874" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(0,75%,60%);"><strong>The Other Guy</strong></span></a><span style="color:black;">” premiered with</span><a class="no-pjax" href="https://f1v3ff69.r.us-east-1.awstrack.me/L0/https:%2F%2Famplifymusicmag.com%2Fexclusive-premiere-video-new-single-from-devin-coopers-the-other-guy%2F/1/0100018683bde54f-758f02b7-080a-45a5-ad0d-2502ed5890eb-000000/hui-DNsRH6meJXwc3_ny657L6ps=310" target="_blank" title="This external link will open in a new window"><span style="color:#F6A1C2;"><strong> </strong></span></a><span style="color:#000000;">Amplify Music Magazine</span><span style="color:black;">. Featuring Calgary as a main character, the video pays homage to old Hollywood and is fuelled by reckless abandon with every minute of the cinematic showpiece, following two people chasing a spark and running wild with it. Viewers will be drawn into the story of the duo doing the unexpectedly wrong thing at seemingly the right time, begging the question <i>what would someone do if they knew they would never be caught? </i></span></p><p><span style="color:black;">Not one to slow down, on (Feb. 25) Cooper hosted his 4th<strong> </strong></span><a class="no-pjax" href="https://f1v3ff69.r.us-east-1.awstrack.me/L0/https:%2F%2Fwww.devincoopermusic.com%2Fridetoremember/1/0100018683bde54f-758f02b7-080a-45a5-ad0d-2502ed5890eb-000000/h7tzt2Lg8c7OAmy5qILjhlf-nSI=310" target="_blank" title="This external link will open in a new window"><span style="color:#000000;">"</span><span style="color:#F6A1C2;"><strong>Ride To Remember</strong></span><span style="color:#000000;">"</span></a><span style="color:black;"> charity event in Calgary at Webber Academy. Cooper launched the <strong>Ride To Remember</strong> initiative in 2019, which consists of a motorcycle ride and concert in support of the <strong>Alzheimer Society of Calgary,</strong> after watching a close family member struggle with the disease. The inaugural event took place at Ill-Fated Kustoms Motorcycle Shop and raised over $1,500 to help those who are dealing with Alzheimer's disease. Since then, Cooper has continued the event and raised over $12k for the cause. The 4th annual Ride to Remember included performances by Cooper and other artists, which were recorded for future <i><strong>Stampede City Sessions</strong></i>. The goal this year was to raise an impressive $15k and Cooper blew that goal out of the water by raising over $40k.</span></p><p><span style="color:black;">Humbled by the response surrounding the release of his debut album <i><strong>Good Things</strong></i> last year, Cooper spent 2022 bringing his music across the country to fans, including a performance at the Calgary Stampede. Being honoured for the success of that debut album, Cooper landed a monumental seven nominations for the <strong>Country Music Alberta Awards</strong>, making him the most nominated solo artist for 2023. The nominations for this year included <i><strong>Male Artist of The Year</strong>, <strong>Album of The Year</strong>, <strong>Music Video of The Year</strong>, <strong>Community Spirit Award</strong></i>, <i><strong>Interactive Artist of The Year</strong>, <strong>Fans’ Choice</strong>,</i> and <i><strong>Visual Creative of The Year</strong>.</i> Cooper took home <i><strong>Horizon</strong></i> <i><strong>Male Artist of the Year</strong></i>. With a start to the year like this, it’s hard to imagine that Cooper is just getting started on what is sure to be an unmatched 2023.

Before everyone came to know of Nothing More, we spent nearly a decade in the underground; playing shows in dive bars for no one, working on our craft, and trying with all of our might to find our identity and become a world-class headlining band. Year after year we were passed on by record labels and booking agents, and told that we just weren’t “it”. But our love for music and love for the stage always beat the criticism we received from the industry and we used the pain of rejection to push on and keep refining the music that we were making. And I think that was what made us different as a band. When a label wouldn’t give us a deal, we learned to produce the records on our own. When we didn’t have the money to make an exciting stage show, we learned to build it ourselves. When people said that our songs were too complicated, we learned to write songs in a way that we still loved, but the message stays cohesive. I think that the struggle shaped this band in the greatest of ways. It showed us just how much music means to us. And it taught us the ability to change and endure rejection, and when not to change and to stick to your guns. More than anything I think it makes where we are now even more magical. Every day that we pull up to a show and there’s a line of people around the block waiting to get in makes all those years worth it. And I think the fans can tell that about us. They can tell that we put our heart into everything that we do and that we treat every show we play as if it’s our last. </i></p><p><i><strong>KC</strong>: </i><strong>Can you share your inspiration behind the new album?</strong></p><p><i><strong>NM</strong>: The album “Spirits” was written as a kind of exploration of the spirit(s) that are inside every man or woman and how they fare through the trials of the human experience. As a band, we usually like to write from direct personal experience but since we wrote this record in the middle of Covid, and the entire world was going crazy around us, we pulled a lot from whatever mad spell the entire planet was going through.</i></p><p>‘’<a class="no-pjax" href="https://nothingmore.net/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(150,75%,60%);"><strong>Nothing More</strong></span></a> is a staple in what the future of Rock music looks,'' says <a class="no-pjax" href="www.musicsjourney.com" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(270,75%,60%);"><strong>Kim Cyr</strong></span></a>, Editor in Chief for <a class="no-pjax" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:#10b0ec;"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a>. ‘’They are hard-hitting in the lyrics of the songs that they release and the world can relate.

A society that cares about one another.</span></p><p><span style="color:#000000;">The song celebrates the importance of staying connected to our roots, whether we grew up on a farm, in a small town, or in the city. It’s about having pride in our last names, being respectful to others, and keeping our word.</span></p><p><span style="color:#000000;"><i>‘’It's in a handshake and it's in your last name, it's in the way that you were raised going as deep as your roots, from the blue on your collar, down to the dirt on your boots, it's how you treat that girl when she is holding your hand, you meet her kin, it's all yes, sir and thank you, mam, nothing more country than that.''</i></span></p><p>It’s about embracing kindness, giving back, polite gestures just because, lending a neighbor a hand, instilling morals that were taught to us since childhood, such as saying “please” and “thank you” caring about the consequences of our actions, and choosing to do the right thing instead even when no one is watching.</p><p>Harwood and Blaine’s collaboration is perfect in its timing. Harwood had the idea of this song but it just didn't seem like the right time or project to release it. Well, it doesn't get any more perfect than right now. Delivering a timely message and reminder that in today’s fast-paced world, it's easy to forget where we come from and the values that make us who we are today. “<a class="no-pjax" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/brian-john-harwood/1401479652" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(0,75%,60%);"><strong>Nothing More Country Than That</strong></span></a>” urges us to strive to stand for these qualities every day of the year.</p><p>To hear my interview with <a class="no-pjax" href="https://www.brianjohnharwood.com/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(30,75%,60%);"><strong>Brian John Harwood</strong></span></a>, go to <a class="no-pjax" href="www.musicsjourney.com" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(240,75%,60%);"><strong>www.musicsjourney.com</strong></span></a> or click on the link below.</p><p style="text-align:center;"><a class="no-pjax" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1084946/episodes/12510720-music-s-journey-interview-205-w-country-artist-brian-john-harwood-unveils-what-is-sure-to-be-his-next-hit-with-new-single-nothing-more-country-than-that-feat-jason-blaine" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(180,75%,60%);"><strong>Music's Journey INTERVIEW #205 w/ Country Artist Brian John Harwood Unveils What Is Sure To Be His Next Hit With New Single ‘’Nothing More Country Than That'' Feat Jason Blaine</strong></span></a></p><p style="text-align:center;"><strong>Nothing More Country Than That</strong></p><div class="video-container size_xl justify_center" style=""><iframe data-video-type="youtube" data-video-id="W9w6wVpVrL8" data-video-thumb-url="" type="text/html" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/W9w6wVpVrL8?rel=0&wmode=transparent&enablejsapi=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="true"></iframe></div><p><a class="no-pjax" href="https://www.brianjohnharwood.com/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(30,75%,60%);"><strong>BJH</strong></span></a><span style="color:#1D1D1F;"> </span><span style="color:#ffffff;">believes the path to success in the music business is paved with hard work and songs that come from an honest place.

Originally released in 2012, the song was co-written with Canadian singer-songwriter <strong>Matt Epp</strong> while at a Folk Alliance conference in Memphis. The tune was initially penned in dedication to<strong> Jeff Buckley</strong>, who drowned in the arm of the Mississippi River AV and Epp could view from the conference hotel. The stand-out, somber harmonies for the track were crafted in the hotel stairwell, where the natural reverb and constant stream of musicians chiming in as they went past was the initial musical inspiration for the song's vocal hook; a long stream of people wandering in hope of finding something more.</p><p><strong>From AV: </strong><i>"My first tour since the pandemic was in Western Europe, and many audience members told me it was their first outing and concert in more than 2 years. You could see the toll that being apart from other people had taken, but also a new-found appreciation and joy of being together socially again. Many refugees were in the audience, being billeted with families who'd taken them in due to the war in the Ukraine. Many of the refugees were teenagers and young adults, away from their parents and families, and though they were grateful for the hospitality, the stress of the war and being apart from people they loved was very evident. People really seemed to connect then to this haunting duet about being apart. </i></p><p><i><span>For me the song mirrored what I felt myself; after such a long hiatus of not touring and performing with the people who have become close friends, and not seeing so many people on the road, many of whom also have become close. </span>But also it resonated back home; as I live in a neighborhood in Edmonton that has a high population of displaced people: recent refugees from war-torn or dangerous countries worldwide, as well as Indigenous people who have been moved time and time again since colonialism began. There are many shelters in my neighborhood of many varieties, so daily I see a flow of people wandering past my window, many with all their belongings in bags or in shopping carts, and it's especially hard for folks in the winter.</i></p><p><i><span>So, for all these reasons I wanted to sing this song again right now because though it is a song about loneliness and separation and longing it is also a duet-- and it is about human connection that I hope transcends past barriers, politics, and passports and reminds us of our commonality and humanity." - AV</span></i></p><p>Here is a part of my interview with singer-songwriter <strong>Ann Vriend</strong>.</p><p><span style="color:black;"><strong>KC</strong>: What were your influences musically in your life that impacted the kind of songwriter you wanted to be?</span></p><p><span style="color:black;"><strong>AV</strong>: <i>Hard to say in retrospect because I was just a kid but probably a major contributing factor that I was read to a lot from a very young age, by especially my dad, probably got an ear for storytelling and language through that. And also I started music lessons quite young, and chord progressions and melodies have always come fairly easily to me— of course songwriting is storytelling put to music, so it kind of combines that.<span> </span>There was never really a conscious decision to become a songwriter— I was just always doing it.<span> </span>But listening to what other songwriters were doing— I would try to see if I could write in their style, so that inadvertently affected my own songwriting style, I am sure.</i></span></p><p><span style="color:black;"><strong>KC</strong>: Do you remember a song that you heard that stands out in your mind that made you want to write and pursue music as your career?</span></p><p><span style="color:black;"><strong>AV</strong>: <i>There isn’t a certain song.<span> </span>But I did see a band at a club in Edmonton at a “battle of the bands” contest, and I LOVED the band that was the winning band— a funk band— and I found out that they were attending this music school in town, and I told my roommate that night that I needed to go to a music school where I could meet and play with people like that.<span> </span>So the next day I lined up an audition and said that if I got in I would drop out of university— the audition went horribly but something I got in anyway, and at that school— Grant MacEwan College (now a university) was really a major critical changing point in my life. I had to face a lot about myself in learning how to be a performer, and of course, learned a LOT about music.<span> </span>But by the end of the 2-year program, there was no turning back— I had the bug and I did meet a ton of musicians, many of whom I work with to this day.</i></span></p><p><span style="color:#333333;"><strong>KC</strong>: When you started this journey in music, everyone has a set idea of what they thought success is to them.<span> </span>What was that idea for you at the beginning of your career and has the idea of success changed for you today?</span></p><p><span style="color:#333333;"><strong>AV</strong>: <i>Oh man that is a great question.<span> </span>I think, like many if not most people, at first I had this idea in my mind at first that it is this glamorous life of fame and adoration because of course that’s what we see in the media and magazines.<span> </span>When you actually get into it and start paying your dues at the bottom you rapidly learn it is not like that for the vast majority of musicians lol.<span> </span>Which disillusions a lot of people.<span> This</span> is why the ones who stick with it I think have to define success differently than that.<span> </span>A friend of mine who’s an AMAZING musician once posted something when she won one of her many (deserved) awards that mentioned “external gratification.”<span> </span>And that term really made me think.<span> </span>I realized unless I was happy MYSELF about what I was producing— in the studio and on stage— I would always be seeking things from other people and that that is such an insecure, terrifying space to live in because of course no one has control over that— or at least I don’t.<span> </span>So since then, I’ve just been trying to really be proud of what I do, regardless of what other people have to say about it— and weirdly that has resulted in things going better than when I actually was trying to obtain accolades or approval or money or things like that.<span> </span>So— I’m sticking with that approach :)</i></span></p><p><span><strong>KC</strong>: With your parents encouraging you to have a voice, caring about your surroundings, your communities around you…tell us about drawing on those inspirations for writing and how the gospel and soul styles of African American culture and 70’s folk/pop that stuck with you as the kind of music you wanted to be… </span></p><p><span><strong>AV</strong>: </span><i><span>Well musically I think the emotions and rhythms of that music put together with some amazingly strong singers can’t really be topped. So that’s the first thing. But also of course the injustices and struggles that are told in soul and RnB are ones that people all over can relate to more or fewer degrees— definitely, my own neighborhood has a lot of struggles that are similar and so my love of the music and listening to social commentaries like Superbly by Curtis Mayfield and Marvin Gaye, Aretha, Stevie Wonder, Nina Simone— basically pretty much all soul artists — it just seemed to go together. 70s folk/pop artists from the colonial side were also kind of coming to terms with their own materialist culture and starting to question things like the Vietnam war and other things like that— beginning to realize some of the propaganda they had been fed. So— growing up on that music made it seem normal to be a writer and thinker who questioned the status quo, I guess.</span></i></p><p><span style="color:#333333;"><strong>KC</strong>:<span> </span>This album is almost completely self-written. The album features you and only three other musicians that appear in this project.<span> </span>Tell us about deciding to do a project completely stripped down …utilizing less to create more approach…with only keyboards, vocals, and drums.</span></p><p><span style="color:#333333;"><strong>AV</strong>:<span> </span><i><span> </span>In 2019 I toured for 7 weeks in Europe with that instrumentation, minus drums— mostly for economical reasons—<span> </span>and people would ask at the merch table if there was anything to buy that sounded like what they exactly had just heard. And at the time I had to say that no, sadly I didn’t.<span> </span>So when I got back from the tour I decided to make something for those fans, and stay disciplined with the sonic palette that I could use; to stick to only what you listed, and play all the bass lines on the keys, for example. </i></span></p><p><span style="color:#333333;"><strong>KC</strong>:<span> </span>What was it like working alongside esteemed engineer and producer Chris Birkett on this album? </span></p><p><span style="color:#333333;"><strong>AV</strong>:<span> </span><i>Chris is a gentle and very talented musician who knows a lot about engineering and is great to produce vocals with, too.<span> </span>He is young at heart and it was fun getting to know him to make this album.<span> </span>And man he has a lot of stories and has worked with quite a few heavy hitters.</i></span></p><p><span style="color:#333333;"><strong>KC</strong>:<span> </span>The songs speak to the real, raw life issues that people face every day.<span> </span>What does this album mean to you and giving these issues a voice with your platform as an artist?</span></p><p><span style="color:#333333;"><strong>AV</strong>:<span> </span><i>Well in the real world things can be harsh, especially in my neighborhood, and the album is inspired from there— people who have not received a great hand if you liken life to a card game.<span> </span>In living there for the last 15 years I have had a lot to think about, including my social and economic position in relation to that, and the long way our society has to go before there is proper justice and human rights for even the very unlucky in our society— including those who have come from other places, or broken homes.<span> </span>in the words of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, “No one is free until everyone is free.”</i></span></p><p><span style="color:#333333;"><strong>KC</strong>: What has been the most amazing story about one of the songs on this album that a fan has shared that really moved you?</span></p><p><span style="color:#333333;"><strong>AV</strong>:<span> </span><i>There have been quite a few— but I guess what sort of sticks with me isn’t really about a fan, but more about the immediate context of the album, and the album cover, which depicts a chair with a purple and gold blanket draped over it, hung in such a way that the chair looks like a throne.<span> </span>It’s a chair outside under a very graffitied bridge and is a photograph shot by photographer Pieter de Vos, who is a local photographer from Edmonton, who did a series on homes in the Edmonton river valley of houseless people and how they decorated them to make them feel like a home.<span> </span></i></span></p><p><span style="color:#333333;"><i>When the first batch of my CDs was delivered to my doorstep some of the boxes were stolen before I could take them inside, so I went around the neighborhood to look for them, showing people the album cover and offering a cash reward no questions asked to anyone who could find the stolen ones.<span> </span>It was tough because they had been stolen by someone in a gang, so though everyone said they’d seen the CDs not a single person said they knew who had them, though most I asked were homeless and in need of money.<span> </span>One of the people I showed the album cover to was a young woman who I recognized from a year earlier, where I had seen her living in a tent next to a bike trail I was on, during the height of the pandemic.<span> </span>She had asked me if she could go to the hospital to visit her mom.</i></span></p><p><span style="color:#333333;"><i>This time she was sitting with some other young women, across the street from the supervised injection site, about a block from my house.<span> </span>While I was talking to them, they were casually injecting themselves in various parts of their bodies without seemingly even noticing.<span> </span>The young woman I recognized was very taken aback by the album cover because she said: “Oh, that was MY place!”<span> </span>She was very surprised to see it and recognized it immediately.<span> </span>So— it was her throne, her chair, her blanket, her home, under that bridge in the river valley.<span> </span>“How long did you live there?” I asked.<span> </span>And she said, “About a year.” And I said, “Even in the winter?”, as it gets below minus 30 degrees Celsius here some nights.<span> </span>“Yes,” she said.<span> </span>She said she liked it because it was pretty safe, and no one bothered her there.<span> </span></i></span></p><p><span style="color:#333333;"><i>It was a strange way to have met the person whose home decorating style caught the eye of the photographer whose photo spoke so loudly to me when I was looking for the album artwork. (Later I did get all the CDs back— that’s a story for another day).<span> </span></i></span></p><p><span style="color:#333333;"><i>The whole point of the photography series, and my album, is to remind us all of the individual importance and worth of each person— so it should not have surprised me that yes, this throne was attached to a real person in my neighborhood, whom I’d met already once, who is someone’s daughter, and just like everyone, they matter.<span> </span>I hope our society stops viewing humans as disposable and dispensable because no one wants to feel that way.<span> </span>Not you, not me, not anyone.<span> </span>It is a reflection on our society if that is still happening, more than it is on those who are treated that way,</i></span></p><p><span style="color:#333333;"><i><span> </span>I gave the woman the copy of the album that I had in my hand and said thank you for inspiring this photographer.<span> </span>She didn’t know what to say to that.<span> </span>I don’t think people in her position get thanked a whole lot.<span> </span>But it was the first copy of the album that anyone got, which seemed appropriate.<span> </span>I have no idea where it is now, but if she still has it I hope it’s in a place she continues to decorate, that is warmer and that has the dignity any person with any illness deserves.</i></span></p><p><span style="color:#333333;"><strong>KC</strong>:<span> </span>Do you have a favorite or a song that was really important to you to release on the EVERYBODY MATTERS?</span></p><p><span style="color:#333333;"><i><strong>AV</strong>:<span> </span>Well, I guess that’s like asking someone to choose between their children haha.<span> </span>I am currently really promoting the song and video for “If You Were Here”, and I’m really happy with how especially the remix for it turned out and excited to get some huge radio play for it in Germany leading up to the tour that we’re doing in Europe currently.<span> </span></i></span></p><p><span style="color:#333333;"><strong>Burning Questions Portion of the Show</strong></span></p><p><span style="color:black;"><strong>KC</strong>:<span> </span>If you could suggest only one of your songs for someone to listen to that describes the artist you are today, what song would that be and why?</span></p><p><span style="color:black;"><strong>AV</strong>:<span> </span><i>Any of the songs on the new album really— but since “If You Were Here” is the single we’re promoting— a duet with Jory Kinjo, who is playing bass and singing backup vocals on the tour I’m on— then I suggest people start there :)</i></span></p><p><span style="color:black;"><strong>KC</strong>:<span> </span>Favorite storytelling song of all time?</span></p><p><span style="color:black;"><strong>AV</strong>:<span> </span><i>Oh geez.<span> </span>There is an Americana song called “The Flood” by Canadian singer-songwriter Jack Marks that is one of the best in that genre, I think.</i></span></p><p><span style="color:black;"><strong>KC</strong>:<span> </span>Favorite international artist on the radio today?</span></p><p><span style="color:black;"><strong>AV</strong>:<span> </span><i>Oh boy.<span> </span>I’m a fan of Anderson Paak.

She has been delivering her undeniably unique brand of old-school, inner-city soul to audiences around Europe, Oceana, Asia, and North America throughout her under-the-radar but a consistently award-winning, critically acclaimed career. </p><p>Growing up in a household that encouraged critical thinking and challenged the status quo, AV has always written songs about confusion, searching, and questioning -- of herself, and the culture around her. The outcome is what she half seriously, half jokingly calls “existentialist gospel" : drawing musically from the emotionally intense and rhythmic gospel and soul styles of African American culture, as well as from her parents’ vinyl ‘70s folk/pop collection. </p><p>It is with a huge, respectful nod to her influences that <strong>AV</strong> addresses the social issues that face her and her community of her somewhat notorious inner-city Edmonton neighborhood of McCauley; in which there is a high concentration of people suffering from extreme forms of trauma and abuse; often resulting in addiction, mental illness, stigmatization, neglect, and further abuse. AV's own self-examination in response to this is the subject matter of her newest album and its title track, "<a class="no-pjax" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/3vjHMysd98leqhwDotu9fZ"

Over his 40-year career he has released 63 singles, many of them hits. He’s also known as a great songwriter and if you’ve ever seen him perform live, maybe a comedian!?</p><p>Jamie lives in Dutton Ontario, Canada, but was raised in Hanover Ontario where he pursued an adolescent dream of playing professional hockey in the NHL…with music as a background distraction. When he realized that his natural abilities for singing and playing guitar might make it easier to attract the attention of girls, he hung up his skates. Songwriting was a logical progression for a sensitive guy who wrote poetry and short stories throughout his high school years.</p><p>His interest in music was likely genetic since his mother sang and played piano and his father played guitar and mandolin. Jamie had piano lessons at age 5 and guitar lessons at age 8. By the time he was 10 years old, it was tradition for the Warrens to entertain after Saturday night euchre games (a Canadian card-game institution) in their smoke-filled basement. His earliest musical influences were whatever his parents listened to on the radio and the only thing his parent’s radio seemed to play, was country music. To this day he’s still a huge fan of Merle Haggard, Tammy Wynette, and Patsy Cline. Later in high school, his best friend’s older brother exposed him to celebrated vocal groups like The Eagles, America, Poco, and CSNY. Jamie has always had an appreciation for Texas singer-songwriters like Radney Foster, Lyle Lovett, and Rodney Crowell.</p><p>Jamie attended Conestoga College to study Broadcasting. His goal was to become the youngest general manager of a mid-market radio station, but he emerged instead with a desire to sing for a living. What changed his mind? Jamie won a regional talent show at London Ontario’s Western Fair which sent him to Memphis Tennessee for an international competition where he placed second. Jamie then stayed in Memphis, while he worked a one-year gig at Libertyland Theme Park as an entertainer. He still feels a connection to Memphis, the city that kicked off his career.</p><p>Returning to Canada he began a great friendship with producer J. Richard Hutt who produced “All Of The Above” and all of Jamie’s previous recordings. Rick initially engaged Jamie as a singer for jingles he produced out of his Kitchener-based CedarTree Studios. “I didn’t have a clue what I was doing,” says Jamie, “thank goodness he had a lot of patience”. He must have learned something from the experience because his first Top Ten hit came shortly thereafter with “Take Me Home Mississippi” and subsequently a win as New Artist of The Year at the 1985 RPM Big Country Awards.</p><p>Around this time Jamie was being courted by Warner Bros in Nashville. To get a record deal at 25 would have been a great opportunity, but they passed on him in favour of a fellow named, Randy Travis. To this day Jamie remains a big fan of Randy and was honoured to be in the running with him. In the late 80s, country music became more traditional in flavour so he took some time off from recording. He got married and had two kids and played locally in small clubs to pay the bills.</p><p>In 1993 Jamie was convinced that both country radio and Nashville were interested in a more contemporary style of music and might make room for him again. He released “Fallen Angel” on River North/Mercury Records, which yielded an enduring fan favourite and radio hit “One Step Back”. The success of this record was followed closely and even more impressively by the album “Just Not the Same” which surrendered several Top Ten singles and led to a handful of JUNO and CCMA nominations in multiple categories including wins for Independent Song of the Year and Independent Male Artist of the Year. Since then Jamie has released the critically acclaimed “Really” in 2003 and a career retrospective collection of greatest hits in 2005 under the title “Make Me Believe”. In 2008, Jamie released the very personal “Right Here Right Now” followed by “Howl at The Moon” (2010) and “I’ve Got A Feeling” (2013)</p><p>For the last five years, Jamie has been consistently writing with other artists for their projects as well as his own; releasing “All Of The Above” (2018), “The Secret to Life” (2020) and a new CD to be released Fall 2023. He felt it was time to say something with his own voice and his own words at a time when country music was contemporary yet again.</p><p style="text-align:center;"><a class="no-pjax"

"I know parts of my journey will feel so familiar to others and that's what makes this track so important to me. As soon as I wrote it I knew I wanted the album to be called the same thing. Both tell the truth behind the last four years of my growing up in ways I didn't anticipate having to, and I hope that people will be able to relate to that.''</i></p><p>‘’<a class="no-pjax" href="https://www.alliwalker.ca/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:#0ac4ec;"><strong>Alli Walker</strong></span></a> is the real deal, a storyteller that delivers with her new sophomore album ‘’<a class="no-pjax" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/alli-walker/353940870" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(0,75%,60%);"><strong>Growing Up</strong></span></a>'' that is a must listen to,'' says <a class="no-pjax" href="www.musicsjourney.com" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(270,75%,60%);"><strong>Kim Cyr</strong></span></a>, Editor in Chief for <a class="no-pjax" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(30,75%,60%);"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a>, radio host, and host of the International <a class="no-pjax" href="www.musicsjourney.com" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(240,75%,60%);"><strong>Music's Journey Podcast</strong></span></a>. ‘’It is refreshing to hear the kind of songs that we can all relate to and see ourselves in each story.

Hogan has had great success on both sides of the border as a songwriter and singer. I had the chance to talk with Hogan about what success looked like to a young drummer starting out who had an amazing voice and dream in this music business and what success meant to him now. Hogan has faced life's challenges with heart and inspiration. We talk about his journey with cancer and facing that time in his life when the fear of never singing and performing again was a real possibility. Hogan shares his story and his determination to fight to keep his dreams as a husband, father, brother, and singer alive. The meaning in life shifts and the music along with it.</p><p><strong>KC</strong>: When did know that you wanted to pursue music as a career?</p><p><strong>Sean</strong>: <i>‘’Likely from about the age of 15, I felt like I only wanted to do music with my life.'' </i></p><p><strong>KC</strong>: Do you remember the first concert you ever went to and the first record you ever bought and listened to from front to back?</p><p><strong>Sean</strong>: <i> ‘’The first concert that wasn't orchestral that I went to, I believe was KISS at the Maple Leaf Gardens, in 1979. It was summer and we dressed up as Peter Criss. The first record that I bought and listened to from top to bottom was Billy Joel's 52nd Street.''</i></p><p><strong>KC</strong>: You were a very serious drummer as a kid and went to Fanshawe College to study music engineering, after that, you studied music theory and jazz, with vocals as a minor. Who is your favourite drummer of all time?</p><p><strong>Sean</strong>: ‘<i>’My favourite drummer of all time is probably Stewart Copeland of the Police followed by Neil Pean, of Rush and Alex Van Halen of Van Halen.''</i></p><p>KC: Songwriting is such a big part of your life. What is your writing process and where do you get your inspiration from as a songwriter?</p><p><strong>Sean</strong>: <i> ‘’Songwriting is an applied effort, but it helps when your train your mind to be aware of patch phrases and feelings that stir up descriptive words to how you feel about something and can put that feeling in context with some concrete imagery. Often just writing thoughts and feelings can be scratching at the grey matter but then when you least expect it, something else comes up and you write about that instead but because you were staying active with energy in the motion of songwriting and reflecting on ideas when the moment comes up that finds you captivated you're compelled to write, and because you've been writing in general even about something completely unrelated you end up writing something pretty cool out of the blue, or it feels like it comes from somewhere else. Then at other times, you're crafting an idea over time but it gets better with each new session honing in on the key message and form for that song idea.''</i></p><p><strong>KC</strong>: Do you have a favourite songwriter and a song that really meant something to you that moved you to want to become a songwriter? </p><p><strong>Sean</strong>: <i>‘’I can't pick a favourite songwriter. I mean I might once have said Sting or John Hiatt, or Van Morrison, Steve Earle, Billy Joel, or Lyle Lovett but there are just too many great writers and it doesn't seem fair to choose just one, let alone easy to do.''</i></p><p>KC: When you look at what you thought success meant to you when you first started this journey in music and with all your life experience with years in the music industry, has your view of what success looks like today changed?</p><p><strong>Sean</strong>: <i>‘’Some of it has. I never had a goal to win a Juno or Grammy ever really just enjoy doing what I do and paying the bills by doing it. It seemed like the best way but along the way, I have had some great award opportunities come my way that I have invariably garnered though you can't plan that stuff. It's hard enough to try and plan a career. It kind of takes a life of its own and you do different things with your talent depending on what's determined at that moment to be most useful. I like that though. Variety is not boring and it's not routinely done because that's what the boss wants you to do. There is authority and I value that a great deal. There is never a shortage of work though as your own boss, you can be harder and expect more of yourself I think and engage in less conventional ways to achieve high results when opportunity allows for a bit of lucrative fortuitousness that can arise in the music industry if you are working at career objectives with some skill talent and I think a large amount of optimism.'' </i></p><p><strong>KC</strong>: When we are dealing with events in our lives, listening to a song can change the meaning and tone of what we are experiencing and change our life. Has there been a song that has impacted you like that?</p><p><strong>Sean</strong>: ‘’I'm not sure any songs that I have written changed my meaning of tone in my life, no. I think songs sometimes in my career, the song has come to me as a forbearance almost or harbinger of events to come, as if my subconscious was writing about something to come around to occur later in my life, a way before my conscious mind knew it was happening or going to happen, and hence I wrote about it, kinda like portending what was around the corner for me.''</p><p><strong>KC</strong>: What was the time like for going to the states and the success you had there as a Canadian country artist?</p><p><strong>Sean</strong>: <i><span>‘’I went to states a lot between 1998 and 2008, it was educational and I enjoyed most of the trips but it most often felt pretty insular there like you could visit your life but you’re not from here so if you don’t mind feeling like we already have enough of the people we need here then come on in, I never felt like it was home but it almost did at one point in about 2007 but by 2009 it didn’t seem to make sense to move there. I attended many industry functions and made friends in the business and wrote with some great writers but as someone who has had a lot of success with my own self-written, I didn’t feel that co-writing to me was more important or even as important as writing my own ideas on my won. Again though I did write some great co-written songs there. If you look at the writers I like most they are singular singer/songwriters they don’t co-write so much at all.''</span></i></p><p><span><strong>KC</strong>:</span><i><span> </span></i><span>What can fans expect to see for 2023?</span></p><p><span><strong>Sean</strong>: </span><i><span>‘’New music and more online presence. I'd tell ya more but then where is the surprise in that! Good things and more good things.''</span></i></p><p><strong>Nathan Cunningham </strong>will be releasing ‘’<strong>Tired of Leavin</strong>'' as his next single in March which was a song <a class="no-pjax" href="https://seanhogan.net/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(30,75%,60%);"><strong>Sean Hogan</strong></span></a> had released and was a top 20 hit for him in 1999.</p><p>Check out my interview with Sean which is full of stories and music that you are going to love.

<li><span>Youth are struggling more than we even know. In fact, one in two youth are struggling with their mental health.</span></li>
<li><span>Kids Help Phone is transforming mental health care for young people in Canada and is asking Canadians to support Feel Out Loud, a $300M campaign to unlock hope for young people in Canada to thrive in their world.</span></li>
<li><span>Feel Out Loud is the largest movement supporting youth mental health in Canada’s history.</span></li>
<li><span>The campaign is aimed at providing young people support without obstacles and help with any hardship. Because no challenge is too big, and no feeling is too small.</span></li>
<li><span>To kick off the campaign, Feel Out Loud, a collective of more than 50 music artists from across Canada, have come together to record an anthem to support Kids Help Phone’s initiative to help all young people in Canada feel out loud and express their emotions in a safe and supported way.</span></li>
<li><span>An advocate for mental health within the music community and beyond, Serena Ryder’s song "What I Wouldn’t Do" weaves an inspiring message and profound lyrics, alongside Leela Gilday’s sonically beautiful bridge from “North Star Calling” to create the anthem, which was produced by Bob Ezrin and Randy Lennox</span></li>
<li><span>Artist representation and collaboration spans provinces, territories, and cities from coast to coast to coast, representing a diverse group of talent, with the equitable, informative, and creative intention of reaching underserved and equity-deserving youth across the country and within all communities.</span></li>
</ul><p><span>“What I Wouldn’t Do/North Star Calling” weaves the compassionate lyrics from JUNO Award winner<strong> Serena Ryder’s “What I Wouldn’t Do” </strong>with the stunning bridge from </span><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);"><span><strong>Leela Gilday’s </strong></span></span><span>JUNO Award winning song<strong> “North Star Calling” </strong>to create the soundtrack for </span><i><span>Feel Out Loud </span></i><span>, rallying the entire country to invest in youth mental health to help shape the future for young people in Canada.</span></p><p><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);">The anthem and video bring together a pantheon of Canada’s best and brightest young talent including Alessia Cara, JESSIA, Johnny Orlando, JP Saxe, Rêve, Roy Woods, The Reklaws, TOBi, Tyler Shaw and many more, and includes the moving and powerful addition of children’s choirs from both the Sarah McLachlan School of Music in Vancouver, BC, and Chief Jimmy Bruneau School in Behchokǫ̀, NT.

data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(0,75%,60%);"><strong>The Thing That Wrecks You</strong></span></a>,” available everywhere now, brings reigning <strong>CCMA Entertainer of the Year </strong><a class="no-pjax" href="https://tenilletownes.com/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:#10b0ec;"><strong>Tenille Townes</strong></span></a> and <strong>GRAMMY Award winner </strong><a class="no-pjax" href="https://www.bryanadams.com/" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(30,75%,60%);"><strong>Bryan Adams</strong></span></a> together on a vocal performance that matches the energy of the song’s lyrics, describing the moment love careens headfirst towards heartbreak. </p><p><i>“I was recording a song for a Hallmark Movie in Vancouver last summer and found myself completely enamored by the recording space we were in,” remembers Townes. “Later in the day, I found out that it was Bryan Adams’ Warehouse.</i></p><p><i>Studio, and I actually ran into Bryan himself on the staircase on my way out. We talked for just a few minutes, and I was so happy to meet him because his path as a fellow Canadian has been incredibly inspiring to me, with a collection of songs that have impacted the world in such a huge way. </i></p><p><i>“Later that night, I thought about ‘The Thing That Wrecks You,’ a song I’d written a while before with Kate York and Daniel Tashian, and how the spirit of that song made me think about his voice,” she continues. “I decided to go out on a limb and sent him the song along with a letter asking if he might be up for singing on it with me. Fast forward to now, where not only have I gotten to sing with a hero of mine, but I have also found a mentor and friend through this whole adventure. This song is evidence to me that putting a wild thought out in the atmosphere and believing in it is a powerful thing.” </i></p><p>Just shy of four minutes, the driving track produced by Townes and her band’s guitarist, Jaxon Hargrove, was recorded with her touring band joining her in-studio as well as with Adams adding his own guitar prowess to the song alongside his vocals. Trading opening lines, the pair come together for a stirring duet on the chorus: </p><p><i>‘’We're running down a darker road Where even angels fear to go And stars fall like a lonely tear When they’re crashing through the atmosphere It looked just like a dream come true But love can lead you straight into The thing that wrecks you''</i> </p><p><i>“I wrote this song in a state of worry about a friend of mine who was in a toxic relationship. I couldn't</i><br><i>understand why she kept running back to him. We would have conversations about how she knew it</i><br><i>wasn't good for her, and how much emotional turmoil it was causing her, but still she'd choose to</i><br><i>keep putting herself through it. It's so hard to watch someone you care about, feel that kind of pain. I</i><br><i>think I wrote this song trying to imagine and understand that feeling, where the emotional pull is so</i><br><i>much greater than any kind of logic. I hadn't experienced that before in a relationship in my life at the</i><br><i>time, but I often write from the perspective of putting myself in someone else's experience, to find</i><br><i>understanding. I imagined how it's the same pull we feel as humans towards things we know aren't</i><br><i>good for us, whether it's a relationship, an addiction of any kind, or something that we know will end</i><br><i>in wreckage, but we still go through it anyway. I think that's a fundamental part of the human</i><br><i>condition. If we didn't follow those pulls, maybe we wouldn't find out the core of who we are after the</i><br><i>crash. I think what's under the pieces that shatter and fall around us, is a lot of truth. Maybe the thing</i><br><i>that wrecks us becomes a part of the best thing that could have happened to us. But the pain of it</i><br><i>before that growth or any kind of revelation happens, that's the place I wanted to write this song</i><br><i>from. From the middle of the hurt, the cycle, and the madness.”</i><br><span style="color:rgb(33,37,41);">- <strong>Tenille Townes</strong></span></p><p>The song offers a preview of new music from Townes, whose most recent project, <a class="no-pjax" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/3TyeX0lk4B7k56ukfzEE0z?autoplay=true" data-link-type="url"><span style="color:hsl(150,75%,60%);"><strong>Masquerades</strong></span></a>, was released in April 2022 via <strong>Columbia Nashville/Sony Music Nashville</strong> in partnership with <strong>RCA Records</strong>.

<p>Chad and <a contents="Kadooh " data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.kadoohmusic.com/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Kadooh</strong> </span></a>are close personal friends and envisioned the music video for “<a contents="Rattlesnake Bite" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/kadooh/1214876179"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Rattlesnake Bite</strong></span></a>” as the song itself was wrapping up. The music video is filled with high-energy, planes, grown men on tricycles and, of course, lots of lights and shredding guitars. </p>
<p>“<a contents="Rattlesnake Bite" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/kadooh/1214876179"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Rattlesnake Bite</strong></span></a>” was filmed in Abbotsford, B.C. and was brought to life by Director <strong>Stephano Barberis</strong>, who has directed videos in the past for Meghan Patrick, Jojo Mason, and Dallas Smith. He is a force to be reckoned with, that’s for sure. </p>
<p>Everything from the choreographed dancers on the massive light boxes, to the jet flying overhead as the band performed on the runway, to the grown men riding tricycles made the video complete. <a contents="Kadooh " data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.kadoohmusic.com/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Kadooh</strong> </span></a>and Chad go on to say it had total Top Gun action vibes as the jet was buzzing overhead. You can tell everyone had a blast shooting this video.</p>
<p><strong>About Kadooh</strong></p>
<p>Growing up in a small town in Alberta, <a contents="Kadooh" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.kadoohmusic.com/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Kadooh</strong></span></a> always had a passion for music as he recalls listening to Charley Pride and Conway Twitty on the way to hockey trips, leading the would-be guitarist to pour over records by Garth Brooks, John Michael Montgomery, and Brooks & Dunn. He soon would turn his passion into a career, joining the music business known as the guitarist and backing vocalist of the rock band <strong>State of Shock</strong>. </p>
<p>After spending over a decade with the band, Kadooh made the decision to cross over to country, a genre he’s grown to love, and step into the spotlight for the first time as a solo artist. In 2018, he won his very first country music award, earning the <strong>Ray McAuley Horizon Award</strong> at the BC Country Music Association Awards (BCCMA). In 2019, he released his debut self-titled EP and 3 singles, and the winning streak continued leading to nominations for BCCMA Male Artist of the Year, SOCAN Songwriter of the Year, Single of the Year, and Album of the Year, and ultimately taking home the BCCMA award for Video of the Year for “<a contents="Somethin’ to Roll on" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1HKSdVEU3JyvGt45zNQ50V?autoplay=true"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Somethin’ to Roll on</strong></span></a>”. </p>
<p><a contents="Kadooh" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.kadoohmusic.com/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Kadooh</strong></span></a> is gearing up to release his new EP later this year, which was brought together with the help of producer <strong>Jeff Johnson</strong>. The new EP will continue to reflect Kadooh’s new sound — one that has found influence in not only his everyday life but an ingrained love of music as a whole. </p>
<p>You can look forward to more new music on the horizon, “We have a ton of songs ready to go, and I’m really excited about it. I’ve poured my heart and soul into it all, and I hope everybody connects and enjoys them!”</p>

<p><strong>About Nickelback </strong></p>
<p>Named the “most successful rock band of the decade” by Billboard in 2009, Nickelback is one of the most commercially viable and important acts of the past two decades. The four-piece, comprised of Chad Kroeger, Mike Kroeger, Ryan Peake, and Daniel Adair, is globally celebrated for their career defining and award-winning hits including “How You Remind Me,” “Photograph,” “Far Away” and “Rockstar” which all held top spots on the Billboard 100. Their success includes worldwide sales of more than 50-million units, solidifying their status as one of the top-selling acts of all time and the second best-selling foreign act in the U.S., in the 2000’s decade, behind only The Beatles. Their inescapable and irresistible smash “How You Remind Me” was named Billboard’s ‘Top Rock Song of the Decade’. It was the number-one most played song on U.S. radio (any format) in the 2000’s decade according to Nielsen Soundscan, with over 1.2 million spins. </p>
<p>Amongst all of these accolades, they’ve also been named Billboard’s “Top Rock Group of the Decade” and received nine Grammy Award nominations, three American Music Awards, a World Music Award, a People’s Choice Award, twelve JUNO Awards, seven MuchMusic Video Awards, and have been inducted into Canada’s Walk of Fame (2007). With more than 23 chart-topping singles and fans spanning the globe, Nickelback boasts twelve consecutive sold-out world tours, playing to well over 10-million diehard and adoring fans. In March 2023 Nickelback will be inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame at the JUNO Awards. </p>

<p><strong>About Brantley Gilbert</strong> </p>
<p>With back-to-back Platinum albums and a grassroots following millions strong, Brantley Gilbert’s music has been shared, covered and adopted as the soundtrack to Saturday night and Sunday morning by audiences around the world. The Georgia native who started as the defiant life-of-the-party can still go ‘til sunrise, but he’s also emerged as something far greater: the leader of a massive tribe of hard-working, fun-loving believers for whom electric guitar-shredding, rapping, and twang can go hand-in-hand-in-hand. They call themselves the BG Nation, and when the BG Nation watches Gilbert on a stage, they don’t just see a star. They see themselves. Seven No. 1 hits punctuate his career: “Country Must be Country Wide,” “You Don’t Know Her Like I Do,” CMA Awards Song of the Year nominee “Dirt Road Anthem,” “My Kinda Party,” RIAA 5x Platinum-certified “Bottoms Up,” “One Hell of an Amen” and collaboration with Lindsay Ell “What Happens In A Small Town.” Gilbert’s landmark record Just As I Am clinched the 2014 American Music Award for Favorite Country Album. Earning praise from the New York Times, NPR, American Songwriter, and more, Gilbert has mined a rich vein of conflict between the party and the pew on all of his albums. Instead of toiling in limbo, unable to enjoy good times for fear of Judgment Day, Gilbert fully lives––rowdy friend, man of faith, devoted husband, smitten father––just as he is. Gilbert’s new album, So Help Me God, includes his latest single “Heaven By Then” with Blake Shelton and featuring Vince Gill, and is available now. </p>

<p>Toronto, ON (January 9, 2023) — Independent music powerhouse <a contents="Big Loud Records" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://bigloudpublishing.com/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Big Loud Records</strong></span></a> is proud to announce today the signing of Canada-born, Midwest-bred singer/songwriter <a contents="Griffen Palmer" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://bigloudpublishing.com/griffen-palmer/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Griffen Palmer</strong></span></a>. Breaking the mold with a sound all his own, Palmer is a lyrical force with a charming voice to match, rooted in accessible lyrics, small-town sentiments, and deeply heartfelt ballads that leave listeners asking for more. </p>
<p>“Griffen is an incredible talent, and we couldn't be more proud to keep him in the Big Loud family as a recording artist,” says Big Loud Partner/CEO Seth England. “His music is representative of who he is: thoughtful, strong, complex, nuanced. We can't wait for everyone to get to know and love him the same way we do.” </p>
<p>“Big Loud has been my home in Nashville since day one," shares Palmer. "Everyone in the building has been so supportive of me these past few years as I've been developing my songwriting and figuring out my next steps as an artist. Waking up every day in this town and creating with a team like this behind me is an absolute dream, and I can't wait to start this new chapter by rolling out the music.” </p>
<p>Developing an affinity for music at a young age, the Ontario native grew up in a musical family, with early influences including John Mayer, Kings of Leon, Elton John, The Eagles, and Bruce Hornsby. Palmer's father bought him a drum kit in elementary school and challenged him to develop an appreciation for not just the sound and structure of the music he loved, but the lyrics within it. Soon after, the music-obsessed upstart found himself writing originals of his own. </p>
<p>Discovering a love for country music during his tenure at Bowling Green State University in Ohio, Palmer would bring both fan-favourite covers and his own raved-about originals to four-hour dive bar sets around campus, refining his performance skills and developing his pen. Shortly after graduation, he was introduced to GRAMMY-nominated songwriter <strong>Geoff Warburton</strong> (5 Seconds of Summer, Shawn Mendes) at a house party, and the collaborators found in one another a creative partnership for the ages. Palmer signed a publishing deal with <strong>Big Loud Publishing</strong> in 2019, shortly after relocating to Nashville, Tenn. </p>
<p>With an impressive rolodex of cuts already on superstars like Florida Georgia Line, Keith Urban, The Band Camino, Chelsea Cutler, Jade Eagleson, and more, the rising singer/songwriter is pairing reputable writing chops with captivating vocal performance to bring the original music he's been writing for years to live under his own name. </p>
<p>In 2020, Palmer made an unforgettable introduction on NBC's <strong>Songland</strong>, winning his episode after collaborating with Shane McAnally, Brian Kelley, and Tyler Hubbard on the romantic, heartfelt ballad “<strong>Second Guessing</strong>.” Now, the swoon-worthy newcomer will make his Big Loud Records debut with the same song, infusing acoustic, pop-country style into a solo version - out everywhere this Friday (1/13). Palmer's debut album will arrive later this year. </p>

<p><strong>ABOUT GRIFFEN PALMER </strong></p>
<p>On the rise singer/songwriter <a contents="Griffen Palmer" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://bigloudpublishing.com/griffen-palmer/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Griffen Palmer</strong></span></a> is more than meets the eye. Having grown up musically, his father - a musician and artist - instilled an appreciation for lyricism in him early on that soon turned into a love for the craft of songwriting. Nurturing a strong pen and sturdy performance chops through four-hour cover sets in dusty college bars at Ohio's Bowling Green State University, the D1 rugby player's house party introduction to GRAMMY-nominated hitmaker <strong>Geoff Warburton</strong> (Shawn Mendes, Machine Gun Kelly, Jake Owen) was the tip of the scale that brought him to Music City. After winning NBC's Songland in May of 2020, the in-demand wordsmith earned cuts with global superstars Florida Georgia Line (“Second Guessing”) and Keith Urban (“Polaroid”) as well as The Band Camino, Chelsea Cutler, MacKenzie Porter, Jade Eagleson and more. The 27-year-old will showcase his midwestern drive and versatile style with the release of his debut album due in 2023. </p>

He touches on topics like alcoholism, depression, and procrastination which have culminated in a feeling of unrequited love. Letting this lover go would mean Post would lose a part of the life he holds so dearly to his heart. Unraveling himself from their finger would conclude the relationship, so he holds tight to memories of a happier past instead of evaluating the present moment.</p>

<p><strong>ABOUT LILY ROSE </strong></p>
<p>Words like “groundbreaking” and “trailblazing” are often overused. But for Big Loud Records / Back Blocks Music and Republic Records country star Lily Rose, they may actually be an understatement. The modern expression of country's most treasured ideal – pure, unflinching honesty – her debut hit “Villain” has revealed Rose as a talent both 100-percent unique and utterly relatable, with a fresh perspective and forward-looking sound. A Georgia native whose inspirations range from Bruce Springsteen to Keith Urban and Katy Perry, Rose broke out in 2020 with the viral smash, “Villain.” Both vulnerable and defiant with a boundary-pushing country-meets-R&B sound, the track hit Number One on the iTunes all-genre chart and SiriusXM's The Highway Hot 30 Weekend Countdown, leading to her new, ten-song project, Stronger Than I Am. In 2022, Rose was nominated for ACM Best New Female Artist and recognized for Outstanding Breakthrough Artist at the 2022 GLAAD Media Awards. With her focus firmly on integrity, Rose's bold mix of personal lyricism and distinctive language meets the hooky sonics of a post-genre fanbase, as pure-country confessions merge with Hip-Hop beats and R&B flow – plus representation where there was none before. All told, it gives new credence to her “groundbreaking” label. </p>

<p><strong>ABOUT GRIFFEN PALMER</strong> </p>
<p>On the rise singer/songwriter <a contents="Griffen Palmer" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://bigloudpublishing.com/griffen-palmer/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Griffen Palmer</strong></span></a> is more than meets the eye. Having grown up musically, his father - a musician and artist - instilled an appreciation for lyricism in him early on that soon turned into a love for the craft of songwriting. Nurturing a strong pen and sturdy performance chops through four-hour cover sets in dusty college bars at Ohio's Bowling Green State University, the D1 rugby player's house party introduction to GRAMMY-nominated hitmaker Geoff Warburton (Shawn Mendes, Machine Gun Kelly, Jake Owen) was the tip of the scale that brought him to Music City. After winning NBC's Songland in May of 2020, the in-demand wordsmith earned cuts with global superstars Florida Georgia Line (“Second Guessing”) and Keith Urban (“Polaroid”) as well as The Band Camino, Chelsea Cutler, MacKenzie Porter, Jade Eagleson and more. The 27-year-old will showcase his midwestern drive and versatile style with the release of his debut album due later this year. </p>

<p><strong>ABOUT LAUREN WATKINS </strong></p>
<p>Nashville native <a contents="Lauren Watkins" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://bigloudpublishing.com/lauren-watkins/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Lauren Watkins</strong></span></a> has been living and breathing country music for as long as she can remember. The free-spirited singer/songwriter is no stranger to the stage, spending her teenage years performing at hometown honky tonks and holes-in-the-wall. The 23-year-old spent her just-wrapped college years at Ole Miss, earning a marketing degree and falling in love with songwriting, honing a pen as sharp as her wit. Drawing inspiration from indie country icons like Willie Nelson and Sheryl Crow to genre mainstays Eric Church, Miranda Lambert, and Chris Stapleton, Watkins brings a tangible relatability and boldness to lyrics all her own. It's that uniqueness that led her to sign a publishing deal with Songs & Daughters and Big Loud Publishing, joining a roster as one-of-a-kind as she is. Charging forward into her next chapter, Lauren shares: “My goal is to reach people by being completely myself. Whether it's how I present myself on stage, through the words I'm singing, or having the chance to meet people individually, I want everyone to feel like we really know each other.”</p>Kim Cyr NOW and THEN Magazinetag:nowandthenmagazine.com,2005:Post/71341542023-01-06T19:55:52-05:002023-01-08T01:32:05-05:00GRAMMY® AWARD-WINNING ICON SHANIA TWAIN RELEASES NEW SINGLE “GIDDY UP!”<p style="text-align: center;"><span class="font_xl"><strong>GRAMMY® AWARD-WINNING ICON SHANIA TWAIN RELEASES NEW SINGLE “GIDDY UP!”</strong></span></p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><span class="font_xl"><strong> “QUEEN OF ME” GLOBAL TOUR LAUNCHES THIS SPRING</strong></span></p>

<p>The track sets the stage for her eagerly awaited new album, <strong>Queen of Me</strong>, arriving on February 3, 2023. It notably stands out as her sixth original full-length offering, her first record since 2017, and her official debut for her new label partner <strong>Republic Nashville</strong>, a division of <strong>Republic Records</strong>. </p>
<p>Kickstarting the record, “<a contents="Giddy Up" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://shaniatwain.lnk.to/giddyup"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Giddy Up</strong></span></a>!” rides out of the gate with a fiery, flirty, and fun chorus tailormade for singing and dancing along. As always, it showcases her show-stopping range and undeniable charisma. </p>
<p>Shania says, the saying “Let’s Go Girls!” is such a wonderfully uplifting sentiment now, but it’s just something I said during the recording in the studio and I guess that’s the same for <a contents="Giddy Up" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://shaniatwain.lnk.to/giddyup"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Giddy Up</strong></span></a>! These lines come to me when I’m thinking about how to put a little “pep in my step”. I want people to feel good when they hear the new album. I want to set a celebratory tone and “Giddy up!” Is a way to call to the audience and say ``let's get ready for some fun!”</p>
<p>In other big news, Shania recently earned the “Music Icon” award at the <strong>2022 People’s Choice Awards</strong>, and she lit up the stage with a rapturous performance - watch <a contents="HERE" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M4nVV0XJbN8"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>HERE</strong></span></a>. </p>
<p><strong>Queen of Me</strong> consists of 12 new tracks. From the energetic opener “<a contents="Giddy Up" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://shaniatwain.lnk.to/giddyup"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Giddy Up</strong></span></a>!” through the empowered title track “<strong>Queen of Me</strong>” and the passionate finale “<strong>The Hardest Stone</strong>,” produced by and featuring <strong>Tyler Joseph/Twenty One Pilots</strong>, the LP represents a deep and dynamic creative statement from this iconic voice. She set the stage for everything with the single “<a contents="Waking Up Dreaming" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wQcfv9zxLXI"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Waking Up Dreaming</strong></span></a>” which Rolling Stone called “a shot of caffeinated bliss” and The Today Show called “an absolute bop.” </p>
<p>Shania was also announced as a headliner for <strong>Rock the Ocean’s Tortuga Festival</strong>, alongside <strong>Eric Church</strong> and <strong>Kenny Chesney</strong>. The star-studded festival will take place on April 14-16, 2023 in Fort Lauderdale, FL.

<p><strong>MORE ABOUT SHANIA TWAIN </strong><br>Last month, she made a grand return with her latest single “<strong>Waking Up Dreaming</strong>.” Right out of the gate, Vulture hailed it as “a motivational, synth-laden pop-rocker with few of the country touches you’d expect from Twain, all of the glamour.” Rolling Stone raved, “It gradually builds to a Shania-worthy maximalist sound, a dance party of gleaming guitars and unfettered bliss.” People affirmed, “Shania Twain is baring it all with her new era of music,” and The Tennessean proclaimed, “Country icon Shania Twain’s season in the sun continues with the release of ‘<strong>Waking Up Dreaming</strong>’.” Perhaps The TODAY Show summed it up best as “an absolute bop.” </p>
<p>“<strong>Waking Up Dreaming</strong>” marked her first release in five years since 2017’s critically acclaimed, Now, which bowed at #1 on the Billboard 200 and #1 on the Top Country Albums Chart upon arrival. It also arrives on the heels of her blockbuster career-spanning documentary <strong>Not Just A Girl</strong>—streaming on Netflix now. It was notably produced by Mercury Studios and directed by Joss Crowley. To accompany the film, she also presented the compilation album <strong>Not Just A Girl</strong> (The Highlights) available <a contents="HERE" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://shania.lnk.to/TheHighlightsPR"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>HERE</strong></span></a>. And in other news, this once-in-a-generation Renaissance Woman joined the star-studded cast of Beauty and the Beast: A 30th Celebration in the role of Mrs. Potts, which premiered on ABC on December 15 and is available to stream on Disney+ as of December 16. </p>

It starts from the classic side with instruments and evolves from there.” After racking up nearly 20 million streams independently, he draws a big sound out of small-town roots on singles such as “<strong>Don’t Break</strong> (My Soul)”, and “<a contents="Flowers Need Rain" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://prestonpablo.lnk.tt/FlowersNeedRainPR"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Flowers Need Rain</strong></span></a>” with <a contents="Banx &amp; Ranx" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.banxnranx.com/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Banx & Ranx</strong></span></a>.

<p>Albertan emerging country artists <a contents="Flaysher" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.flaysher.ca/"><span style="color:#996600;"><strong>Flaysher</strong></span></a> dropped their energetic new single “<a contents="Good For You" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/flaysher/1144992775"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Good For You</strong></span></a>” via all streaming services.</p>
<p>Rooted in the influence of their farmland upbringing, <a contents="Flaysher" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.flaysher.ca/"><span style="color:#996600;"><strong>Flaysher</strong></span></a>, born and raised Albertans, take their identifiable grit and edgy tones to a whole new level. You can almost hear the sawdust in their voices from growing up working for the family business. Their single "<a contents="Good For You" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/flaysher/1144992775"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Good For You</strong></span></a>" speaks to the stubborn side in all of us – coming to terms with missing an ex, but refusing to change who we are to go chase them. This song was produced by the incredible <strong>Dan Swinimer</strong> who has worked with some of the best (Billy Currington, Tenille Townes, Madeline Merlo, Tim Hicks, to name a few).</p>
<p><a contents="Flaysher" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.flaysher.ca/"><span style="color:#996600;"><strong>Flaysher</strong></span></a> is a <strong>CMAB Award</strong>-nominated Canadian country duo and Top 12 finalist in Alberta Music's <strong>2021/2022 PROJECT WILD</strong> competition. They have grit in their blood harmonies and unvarnished truths in their lyrics. Inspired by the storytelling in 90s country and the high-octane energy of heartland rock classics, Flaysher’s songs are rooted in the influence of their upbringing. Raised in small-town Airdrie, you can almost hear the sawdust in their voices from growing up on dusty job sites working for the family business.</p>
<p>Flaysher's new single, “<a contents="Good For You" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/flaysher/1144992775"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Good For You</strong></span></a>,” has undeniable hometown country tones, Flaysher’s identifiable edgy tones are taken to a new level. This translates into their most raw single to date. The song speaks to the stubborn side in all of us – coming to terms with missing an ex but refusing to change who we are to go chase them.</p>
<p>“We had a blast recording this one with <strong>Dan Swinimer</strong>. It’s a little more of the rock growl mixed in with classic country music storytelling. The song is introspective while also boldly acknowledging that sometimes a relationship just isn’t the right fit.”</p>
<p>Flaysher’s single, “<a contents="Wild One" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/5k9kGNpX4gbXMBZmlwd1ST"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Wild One</strong></span></a>,” was released in February 2022. It was written by Nashville heavy hitters <strong>Tebey</strong>, <strong>Emma-Lee,</strong> and <strong>Karen Kosowski</strong> and was produced by <strong>Dan Swinimer</strong> (Billy Currington, Tenille Townes, Madeline Merlo, Tim Hicks, to name a few). The track is their highest streaming single to date and increased their Spotify listenership by +11,000%.</p>
<p>Their debut single, “<a contents="Flat Broke Famous" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/5k9kGNpX4gbXMBZmlwd1ST"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Flat Broke Famous</strong></span></a>," was produced by Juno award-winning producer, <strong>Matty McKay</strong> (Brett Kissel) and was released in March 2020. The brother’s February 2021 sophomore single, “<a contents="Ride" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/5k9kGNpX4gbXMBZmlwd1ST"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Ride</strong></span></a>,” was well received by Canadian country radio and garnered the support of Sirius XM/CBC Country. “<a contents="Coastin" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/5k9kGNpX4gbXMBZmlwd1ST"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Coastin</strong></span></a>,” which was released in July 2021, continued this upward trend with adds on 22 radio stations as well as a spot on SiriusXM/CBC Country.

<p>Prior to expanding their sound and leaning into country, <a contents="Flaysher" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.flaysher.ca/"><span style="color:#996600;"><strong>Flaysher</strong></span></a> had their start as a classic rock cover band. They performed over 200 shows in their teens and won the Olds Rock 104.5 star search contest in 2015. They released “<a contents="Starting Over" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/5k9kGNpX4gbXMBZmlwd1ST"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Starting Over</strong></span></a>” in 2016, a rock EP that was bursting at the seams with the unwavering optimism and relentless vitality they had when they hit their 20s.</p>
<p>These true blue-collar boys are known for their high-energy live performances. They’ve performed at Country Thunder and the Calgary Stampede, headlined the <strong>Alberta Summer Games</strong> to an audience of over 6,000 people and sold out the King Eddy (Calgary, AB) multiple times. Every time they hit the stage you can’t help but feel the passion these two brothers have for performing and lifting people up.</p>

<p>''I took a backway home last year and drove by my mom and dad's old farm. The house and barns were gone with just the mailbox left standing, overlooking a large cornfield. I actually said out loud "man, I loved that old house". The line stayed with me and on my next trip to Nashville, after telling friends Sam & Tempy, we wrote <strong>Christmas in the Country</strong>.'' </p>
<p>Dan started playing guitar at the age of seven, beginning with lap steel, and by the time he was ten he was playing acoustic and wrote his first song for his mom; “<a contents="Someone Like You" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/track/2E9U4ymmmk85fmbCApKaEp?si=ZbPFxtfoTrOZZfLKjlkTMA&nd=1"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Someone Like You</strong></span></a>”. His dad integrated him into the band he was playing bass for and by the time he was 13, Dan was the bass player and harmony singer for a local weekend band. His credits include over 200 albums as a singer/songwriter, producer, and bassist. </p>
<p>Dan was bandleader for the late <strong>Colleen Peterson</strong> for several years. He has toured with <strong>George Fox</strong>, <strong>Terry Sheridan</strong>, <strong>Colleen Peterson,</strong> and <strong>South Mountain</strong>. He has guested as a singer/bassist for many gospel shows both live and on television. </p>
<p>Dan has shared the stage on shows with<strong> Emmy-Lou Harris</strong>, <strong>Pirates of the Mississippi</strong>, <strong>Waylon Jennings</strong>, <strong>Toby Keith</strong>, <strong>Marty Stuart</strong>, and <strong>Martina McBride</strong> to name a few. </p>
<p>Dan had great success releasing 5 singles to radio before being asked to audition for award-winning band <strong>South Mountain</strong>. Dan became their lead singer/bassist and spokesperson in Canada, signed to <strong>Stony Plain Records</strong>, and distributed worldwide by <strong>Warner Brothers</strong>. </p>
<p>The band toured Canada and Europe extensively and was in high demand. They had a successful album “<strong>Where There’s A Will</strong>” offering four chart successes and several <strong>Canadian Country Music Association</strong> nominations. </p>
<p>Dan has hosted two television shows for <strong>Cogeco Canada</strong>; highlighting Canadian up & coming talent. He is a much sought after, writer and producer splitting his time between Nashville and home, Stirling, ON Canada. </p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><span class="font_xl"><strong>''<a contents="Made In Mexico" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/made-in-mexico-single/1646242332"><span style="color:#e74c3c;">Made In Mexico</span></a>''</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Music's Journey Podcast INTERVIEW #190 w/ Country Star Eric Ethridge with His Latest Single ''Made In Mexico''</strong></p>
<p>With the release of his dazzling new single, “<a contents="Made in Mexico" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/made-in-mexico-single/1646242332"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Made in Mexico</strong></span></a>,” the acclaimed Canadian country singer-songwriter and part-time Nashvillian confidently charts a new chapter in a career already stacked with accolades, awards, and a devoted fanbase of the sort some artists spend a lifetime building. </p>
<p>Expertly produced by <strong>Lindsay Rimes</strong>, whose work on Kane Brown’s “Heaven” and LoCash’s “I Love This Life” ensured both tracks conquered North American country charts, the propulsive, sun-drenched “<a contents="Made in Mexico" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/made-in-mexico-single/1646242332"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Made in Mexico</strong></span></a>” elevates Ethridge’s crisp, emotive voice and trademark can’t-resist-it melody. It’s the kind of breezy anthem you fully expect to hear pouring out of car speakers at top volume. </p>
<p>“Lindsay was a guest producer on my second record” — 2020’s critically praised <strong>Good with Me</strong>, co-produced by JUNO Award–winning <strong>Brian Howse</strong> — “and I knew I wanted to work with him again. We met during a writing session in Nashville in 2019. It’s like the guy can read my mind,” Ethridge says. “We plan on doing more together.” </p>
<p>Ethridge’s first new music in two years follows a heap of personal and career highs and lows including, in the highs column, getting hitched to long-time love, country singer <strong>Kalsey Kulyk</strong> in 2019 and the birth of their son Wilder in the summer of 2021. Yet despite its rather complex genesis, “<a contents="Made in Mexico" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/made-in-mexico-single/1646242332"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Made in Mexico</strong></span></a>” is a clear snapshot of where Ethridge sits right now both sonically and lyrically. </p>
<p>“I can’t wait for people to hear ‘Made in Mexico.’ It’s been too long, and for a bunch of reasons, not just the pandemic,” Ethridge says, referencing a record and publishing deal that, despite everyone’s best efforts, failed to launch. “This year is all about starting over, rebranding, and planning how to move things going forward. We are full steam ahead now.” </p>
<p>For an artist who admits to “fighting against a music career my whole life; I’m passionate about it but also terrified,” Ethridge has made astonishing inroads in country music on both sides of the 49th parallel. </p>
<p>His self-titled debut EP, issued in 2018, debuted at #1 on the iTunes country charts while producing the smash hit “<strong>If You Met Me First</strong>,” its video achieving more than 10 million views on YouTube. A year later, Ethridge picked up a <strong>CCMA Rising Star</strong> nomination adding to his prestigious <strong>2016 CCMA Discovery Award</strong> win. By the time the before mentioned <strong>Good with Me</strong> album arrived two years later, the Sarnia, ON. native was given a feature spot on country superstar Gord Bamford’s “Rednek Music Fest” national tour. </p>
<p>To date, Ethridge — who describes himself as a spontaneous songwriter with “about a million ideas recorded on my phone” — boasts an incredible 65 million artist streams globally. He is currently registering over 35,000 daily streams in the weeks prior to the September 30 release of “<a contents="Made in Mexico" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/made-in-mexico-single/1646242332"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Made in Mexico</strong></span></a>,” further cementing his status as an independent artist, albeit one with six Top 50 Canadian Billboard hits and over 120,000 social media followers. </p>
<p>And yet, Ethridge almost didn’t pursue this dream. As he explains, his original, “safe” plan was to become a chiropractor. He did, first earning a degree in kinesiology and exercise physiology at Western University in London, ON. </p>
<p>“That’s when I really started cutting my teeth, performing in bars all the time, around 2007, 2008,” Ethridge recalls. “When I graduated in 2011, I had gotten into chiropractor school. A week before I was going to go, I decided to wait and pursue music. My family was, like, ‘Uh… are you sure?’ My buddy, who I also convinced to go to chiro school was like, ‘Dude, really?” Ethridge howls. “I decided to give it a year and ended up really liking it.” </p>
<p>These days, Ethridge sometimes finds himself in the unique position of “greeting patients while a song of mine comes on the radio,” he chuckles. Ethridge has proven equally dexterous at walking the enormously blurry line between country and pop. Both genres strive to grab ears and touch hearts, yet as Ethridge notes, “Pop can be catchy and fun, but country music is about storytelling. The lyrics take you somewhere. </p>
<p>“Funny enough, I wasn’t raised on country music. But I remember hearing ‘If Tomorrow Never Comes’ by Garth Brooks. I was on the bus in college, and I got super-emotional; that was a first. I was like, ‘Whoa, I didn’t know music could do that!’” </p>
<p>Ethridge continues: “I began discovering other country artists and before I knew it, I was immersed in it. When I started playing coffee shops and bars about 15 years ago, people would come up to me and say, ‘You should be a country singer.’ When I started writing songs on my own, the first thing I wrote was a country song. Not that I’d ever want that song to see the light of day now,” he laughs, “but the whole thing was very organic.” </p>
<p>Now, with a new management team in place, a full-time return to Nashville for him and Kulyk on the horizon, the whole of 2023 open to touring and recording, and “<a contents="Made in Mexico" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/made-in-mexico-single/1646242332"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Made in Mexico</strong></span></a>” ready to soar, Ethridge is buckled in for his country music ascension. </p>
<p>“After the last several years I feel like I have a better idea of who I am and how I want to present myself to the world,” he confirms. “Family is number one and that definitely comes across in my new music. I took the last two years to home in on what I want to say and sing about. And I’m so excited for people to hear it.”</p>

<p><a contents="Michelle Wright" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.michelle-wright.com/"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Michelle Wright</strong></span></a> is celebrating the 30th anniversary of her debut album, <strong>Now And Then</strong> on the <strong>Arista label</strong>, which produced a total of six singles including "<strong>One Time Around</strong>," "<strong>Guitar Talk</strong>," "<strong>He Would Be Sixteen</strong>," and the song career-changing hit changed everything, "<strong>Take It Like a Man</strong>."</p>
<p>Released in February of 1992, <strong>Take It Like A Man</strong> made Michelle the first Canadian‐born artist to have a Top Ten hit in the U.S. a #1 video on CMT‐USA and the first Canadian to win a major U.S. music industry award-winning the Academy of Country Music Top New Female Vocalist award in 1992. Michelle’s career skyrocketed with the success of “<strong>Take It Like a Man</strong>” as she garnered a total of twelve music industry awards, including the 1993 Canadian Country Music Association’s Fans’ Choice Entertainer Of The Year award and double platinum awards for <strong>Now & Then</strong> the same year.</p>
<p>The career that followed is one that many artists dream of having. A total of twelve album releases have sold millions of copies and produced twenty‐five Top Ten radio hits. Michelle enjoys an international career that has seen her grace concert stages across North America, Europe, Africa, South America, Australia, and Asia. She has walked to podiums in music centers like Los Angeles and Toronto to accept more than forty major awards, including her 2011 induction into the Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame.</p>
<p>Michelle has released a total of twelve albums, sold millions of records, and produced twenty‐five Top Ten radio hits. Michelle has performed in concert halls and stages across North America Europe, Africa, South America, Australia, and Asia, and in 2011 was inducted into the Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame.</p>
<p>In 2021, when Michelle began work on her tenth studio project, she once again teamed with producer <strong>Bob Funk</strong> (the husband of the newest inductee into the Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame, <strong>Patricia Conroy</strong>). "I'm so happy to be back in the studio working with Bob, and I am very excited about the new music that we are making. 2022 is the 30th Anniversary of the release of my <strong>Now & Then</strong> album. Ironically, that album’s title describes what it is that we are celebrating with this new music, so <a contents="Milestone" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/album/milestone/1631024343"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Milestone</strong></span></a> just seemed to fit.</p>
<p>Michelle describes the new project by saying, "Growing up in Merlin, ON, I spent many Saturday nights watching my mother and father playing music in their country bands. We would also spend long hours working the farm and listening to the sounds of R&B and Motown coming across the border from Detroit on our transistor radio. Making this record, I once again drew on all of my country influences and those R&B/Motown sounds. Blending these influences is a natural, authentic way to express me in my music. It always has been that way and always will be.”</p>
<p>One of the tracks on the new project is "<a contents="Small Town" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/album/milestone/1631024343"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Small Town</strong></span></a>," a song that I co-wrote with <strong>Rick Ferrell</strong> and up-and-coming Canadian singer/songwriter <strong>Danielle Bourjeaurd</strong>. It was our first time writing together, and as we were tossing around ideas, Danielle began to ask me questions about my career. It was fun to reminisce, and at one point, she said, "That's what we need to write. We need to write your story." At first, I wasn't so sure if I wanted to write about myself, but once it started to present itself on the page, the song unfolded organically. In 3 minutes and 38 seconds," <a contents="Small Town" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/album/milestone/1631024343"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Small Town</strong></span></a>" says so much about the road that I've been on all these years. It makes me smile when I listen to it."</p>

Michelle debuted the single she co-wrote with <strong>Danielle Boujeaurd</strong> and <strong>Rick Ferrell</strong> at her <strong>Country Music Association of Ontario</strong> and <strong>CMA Music Festival</strong> performances.</p>
<p>While the song serves as snapshot of her journey, fans have been dancing to this summer country smash with a pavement pounding Motown beat that drives the single. It’s only fitting that Michelle would dial in on the sound of Motor City as she was reared in the border town of Merlin, Ontario, Canada, a farming community of around 700 an hour away from Detroit.</p>
<p>Michelle has been traveling the world this year celebrating the 30th Anniversary release of her breakout album <strong>Now & Then</strong>. That project featured her signature hit <strong>Take it Like a Man</strong> alongside fan favorites, the storytelling, powerful ballad <strong>He Would Be Sixteen,</strong> and party starter <strong>Guitar Talk</strong>.</p>

<p>A hard-hitting anthem speaks of vulnerability, feeling exposed in a world where it is harder and harder to fly under the radar and the raw energy of youth. “<a contents="No Shelter" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/album/no-shelter-single/1624764560"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>No Shelter</strong></span></a>” acts as a visceral reminder to show compassion, and empathy to one another and cherish the people in your life — especially during an era filled with social trauma. It's also about forming strong relationships that make us feel connected. 'No Shelter' takes you on a journey and asks the question ''How long can it last?'' and ''Will you be with me to face what's next''?</p>
<p>Beyond its commentary, “<a contents="No Shelter" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/album/no-shelter-single/1624764560"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>No Shelter</strong></span></a>” is a blistering track that showcases the exceptional musicianship and vocal prowess of each member of <a contents="Taming Sari" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.tamingsariband.com/"><span style="color:#3300cc;"><strong>Taming Sari</strong></span></a>. Listeners are treated to a sonically sophisticated song that is the culmination of Taming Sari’s pent-up creativity and energy during the pandemic; as the band says, “‘No Shelter’ is three minutes of pure mental and physical release that we all so desperately need in these times.” </p>
<p>Drummer<a contents=" Adam Ouellette" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.tamingsariband.com/"><span style="color:#3300cc;"> <strong>Adam Ouellette</strong></span></a> and bassist <a contents="Alex Pellerin-Auprix" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.tamingsariband.com/"><span style="color:#3300cc;"><strong>Alex Pellerin-Auprix</strong></span></a> provide the tight backbone of the new single, while guitarist <a contents="Miguel Kingsberry-Brunette" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.tamingsariband.com/"><span style="color:#3300cc;"><strong>Miguel Kingsberry-Brunette</strong></span></a> rounds out the rhythm section. The earth-shattering vocals of <a contents="Warren Meredith" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.tamingsariband.com/"><span style="color:#3300cc;"><strong>Warren Meredith</strong></span></a> pave the way for Taming Sari’s new lead guitarist, <a contents="Joe Fraser" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.tamingsariband.com/"><span style="color:#3300cc;"><strong>Joe Fraser</strong></span></a>. </p>
<p>“<a contents="No Shelter" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/album/no-shelter-single/1624764560"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>No Shelter</strong></span></a>” effortlessly exudes youthful energy through its meticulous guitar riffs and thunderous drums. “It's also about forming strong relationships that make us feel connected.” Anyone with a penchant for raw, melodic craftsmanship can be assured that the harmonies embedded in the music are as potent as the message. </p>
<p><em>“Let's settle the score <br>know who to blame <br>how long can it last? <br>thing's will never be the same.”</em> </p>
<p>Hailing from across Canada, <a contents="Taming Sari" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.tamingsariband.com/"><span style="color:#3300cc;"><strong>Taming Sari</strong></span></a> is a collection of eclectic artists hell-bent on refining their distinct blend of classic rock and blues. This bilingual band has been on fire since the release of their debut album, <a contents="Thirsty From The Drought" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://open.spotify.com/artist/757QFqe22JPSn4KIxHHY3R?si=8CMolrC3QqavZtxyFNABiQ&dl_branch=1&nd=1"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Thirsty From The Drought</strong></span></a>, in 2019. </p>
<p>They have since performed during the intermission of an Ottawa Senators game, made it on the Canadian Active Rock charts, and racked up 200,000 streams and 70k listeners on Spotify with their last single alone. With a long list of recognitions and accolades, the release of their latest single ensures that Taming Sari is one of the most exciting Canadian acts today. </p>

<p>Mixing the old with the new, <a contents="The Prairie States" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://theprairiestates.com/"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>The Prairie States</strong></span></a> was born out of a desire to put a fresh touch on a classic design. As seven-time <strong>Country Music Alberta Award</strong> recipients, including the<strong> 2018 Rising Star</strong>. In <strong>2019 Horizon Group/Duo Of The Year</strong> and <strong>2020 Songwriters of the Year</strong>, as well as 1st place in the <strong>2018 Project Wild Artist Development Program</strong>, it’s proof that this Edmonton-based band is moving in the right direction. </p>

It started writing songs for its full-length album, <strong>Lost In The Right Direction</strong>. Independently released in June 2018, it was nominated for the <strong>CMAB Album Of The Year</strong> and included three radio singles, which all broke the top 100 Mediabase Canadian Country Chart. Since then, the band has released four more singles, <strong>Every Little Town</strong>, <strong>Low Life</strong>, <strong>High That I’m Riding</strong>, and <strong>Ferris Wheel</strong>, which also cracked the top 100. </p>
<p>To go along with the release of <strong>Low Life</strong>, the band teamed up with Edmonton-based <strong>Sea Change Brewing Co</strong> to create a custom-branded beer called <strong>Low Life Lager</strong>. The brewery made 17000 tall boys of this perfect summer sipper, which included a Spotify QR code so the person enjoying the beverage could also “Scan The Can” to hear <strong>Low Life</strong> instantly. </p>
<p>The band recently signed with <strong>Willing Records/Universal Music</strong> and <strong>Sakamoto Agency</strong>. </p>
<p>The group’s latest release, <a contents="Rebel Phase" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/rebel-phase-single/1618340618"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Rebel Phase</strong></span></a>, is the first song from<strong> <a contents="The Prairie States" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://theprairiestates.com/"><span style="color:#f39c12;">The Prairie States</span></a></strong> to be released by <strong>Willing Records</strong>. It’s about taking a soaring leap of faith, without a parachute, into a lifestyle that rides beyond the horizon of normal. It’s about roots that continue to grow but never stay planted and living a chosen life. </p>
<p>Exploring new technology is also as important to <a contents="The Prairie States" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://theprairiestates.com/"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>The Prairie States</strong></span></a> as expanding their musical palette. They recently became one of the first Canadian bands to release NFTs (non-fungible tokens) of their EP, available via <strong>OpenSea.io</strong>. </p>
<p><a contents="The Prairie States" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://theprairiestates.com/"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>The Prairie States</strong></span></a> have been out on the road, wowing crowds with their undeniable live show. In their short time as a band, they’ve shared stages with Aaron Goodvin, Clayton Bellamy, Brothers Osborne, and Canadian legend Charlie Major while kicking off the 2019 Big Valley Jamboree. </p>
<p>Ready with a stack of new recordings underway, this band shows no signs of slowing down. </p>

Today, he proves why he is one to watch with the release of his new single "<a contents="Cowboy Stay" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/dustin-bird/606522200"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Cowboy Stay</strong></span></a>," available everywhere via <strong>Open Road Recordings</strong>.</p>

In "<a contents="Cowboy Stay" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/dustin-bird/606522200"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Cowboy Stay</strong></span></a>" the lovers have united with a bond so strong that even a wild cowboy will hang up his hat and settle down. </p>
<p><em>"Cowboy Stay tells the story as old as love itself. The wild type, a little rough around the edges, finding that someone who (for the first time) causes a willingness to radically change their perspective and embrace all that love has to offer," Dustin shares.</em> </p>
<p><em>"For me, this song solidifies the realization that love, in its fullness, has the ability to shape every part of my life. It describes the moment when you realize you’ve found someone whose love is so amazing that you’re willing to change that which was the core of your identity because you suddenly realize it has the potential to be so much more. The love to make even a cowboy stay!" </em></p>

<p><strong><a contents="The Buckleys" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.thebuckleys.net/"><span style="color:#27ae60;">The Buckleys</span></a>,</strong> a three-piece sibling band from Byron Bay, Australia. Signing with Chris Murphy’s <strong>Petrol Records</strong> in 2019, the band earned the prestige of being the only other band on the label alongside <strong>INXS</strong>. Under Chris Murphy’s wise tutelage, the band has released five singles from their debut album.</p>
<p><a contents="Daydream" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://uma.lnk.to/daydreamalbum"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Daydream</strong></span></a> scored a #1 single on Australian Country radio in 2019, followed by the second single, “<a contents="I’m Comin’ For Ya (Love)" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://uma.lnk.to/daydreamalbum"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>I’m Comin’ For Ya (Love)</strong></span></a>,” which reached #3 on the same chart. Their third single, “<a contents="Money" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://uma.lnk.to/daydreamalbum"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Money</strong></span></a>,” reached #2, and “<a contents="Breathe" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://uma.lnk.to/daydreamalbum"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Breathe</strong></span></a>,” reached #3. </p>

<p><a contents="Katy Hurt" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.katyhurt.com/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Katy Hurt</strong></span></a> is one of those rare talents that can write and perform with equal impact. Her 2019 single Revved Up prompted Roland Monger, Music Blogger, to say “Hurt’s voice takes Dolly Parton’s twang and Beth Ditto’s soul, wraps it all up in a basket with a bow before setting fire to it and leaving it on your doorstep.” </p>
<p>Building on the success of her first single '<strong>Sounds Good In A Bar</strong>', which debuted at #1 on the UK iTunes country chart along with being added into rotation at <strong>CBC Country Sirius XM</strong> and many other Canadian radio stations; Hurt will release her second single in Canada, <a contents="Wish I Could Give You Up" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/gb/artist/katy-hurt/663086360"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Wish I Could Give You Up</strong></span></a>. </p>
<p>In Katy Hurt’s latest up-tempo single, she pens an open letter to her greatest love and vice, music. With relatable lyrics like, “I don’t need your advice because my vice is something I can’t change” it is a song many people can connect to. <a contents="Wish I Could Give You Up" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/gb/artist/katy-hurt/663086360"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Wish I Could Give You Up</strong></span></a> was released to all major streaming platforms on Friday, May 20th, and released to Canadian radio on June 3rd. </p>
<p><em>“I’ve given my whole life to music since I was a little girl and it’s been an incredible journey of highs and lows. This song sums up my relationship with songwriting and artistry and how throughout the years creativity has become my vice. My go to for when I need an infusion of joy and the thing I turn to when I’m in my darkest hour. The journey of being a musician has brought me such light and sadness in equal measure. Canada is my musical home, and I've written and recorded some of my favorite country songs there, including this one, I can’t wait to share it with everyone and be back in Canada for Canadian Music Week”, explains UK Country Music Spotlight Award Winner, Katy Hurt.</em> </p>
<p>Coming off the sold out 15 date ‘Sounds Good in a Bar’ UK tour including 3 well-received performances at the popular C2C music festival in London, Hurt has been selected to perform at the <strong>2022 Canadian Music Week</strong> held in Toronto, ON. On top of this, there will be additional performances around Ontario announced at a later date. </p>

The song was produced by <strong>Sharp 9 Music</strong>, producer <strong>Pete Lesperance</strong>.</p>
<p>An uptempo barn burner of a track displaying exceptional musicianship and a good ole boy having a good ole time. The song was penned by Quinton and <strong>Jason Blaine</strong>, at Blaine’s Nashville home. <a contents="20 Dollar Bottle" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/quinton-blair/549926472"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>20 Dollar Bottle</strong></span></a> is an upbeat story of small-town Friday nights, moonshine, love, and country gold. The high-intensity track runs like a freight train down a hill featuring some of the countries top drawer musicians masterfully woven together by producer <strong>Pete Lesperance</strong>. From the heavy hook that drives the song, to the swelling fiddle, and tele chase solos, this song is fun, and keeps the listener engaged from the first downbeat.</p>
<p><strong>Quote about the song</strong>: This barn burner of a tune kicks like a mule, puts a hitch in your hobble, it's a whole lotta trouble in a twenty dollar bottle.</p>
<p>Honest as a day spent on a Manitoba tractor, and driven like the drifting Prairie snow, <strong>4-time Manitoba Country</strong> <strong>Music Association award winner</strong>, <strong><a contents="Quinton Blair" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.quintonblair.com/"><span style="color:#3498db;">Quinton Blair</span></a> </strong>is a road running, tale-spinning, songwriter. Silky and smooth like a diesel engine, his beard glistening in the setting sun. Its rodeo mud in his teeth and horses in his blood. </p>
<p>Born with a natural Prairie sensibility, his farming roots running deep in the Pembina Valley and Parkland regions, Quinton is undeniably authentic. He sticks firmly to writing what he knows, and his songs speak to the rural listener with stories of heartbreak, of family, and of farming. As a lifelong outdoors enthusiast, he writes with a strong sense of place and imagery. A student of the great western storyteller Louis L’Amour, Quinton paints with words. </p>
<p>Sharing the stage with countless Canadian and American country acts, Blair has performed his brand of troubadour, storytelling country that carries heavy undertones both of 70’s outlaw country and 90’s dancehall country with fans all over North America. </p>
<p>Wrangling horses is in his blood and has been a part of the Blair family for generations. Blair and his partner Vanessa operate two rural Manitoba properties in Landmark and MacGregor. Here they raise horses, sheep, fainting goats, and chickens along with their combined 4 children. His maturity and sense of family are so effortlessly communicated in both story and song. </p>
<p>Despite all of the unknown, and industry shuffling, the Covid-19 lockdowns have provided him a chance to rethink his musical journey and clarify his goals. This has allowed him to marry his passion for horses, the Manitoba wilderness, and his heartfelt songwriting, all the while building a national team to bring his music to a broader audience.</p>

<p>Breakout Canadian singer-songwriter and <strong>2022 CMAOntario Rising Star nominee <a contents="Alli Walker" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.alliwalker.ca/"><span style="color:#3498db;">Alli Walker</span></a></strong> is ushering in the warmer weather with the release of her new track “<a contents="Home Town Home" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/alli-walker/353940870"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Home Town Home</strong></span></a>,” available everywhere today. Hailing from a small town on Canada’s east coast herself, Walker brings listeners the perfect summertime anthem, invoking memories of young love and the reality of building a life together. </p>
<p>Written by Walker and longtime pal <strong>Dustin Bird</strong>, the track touches on elements of the PEI-native's personal journey, encapsulating a life she has built with her husband of 6 years. Having both moved to Toronto to chase their dreams over a decade ago, the pair met and settled down in the GTA, while never escaping the pull of their small-town roots. “This song tells the story of what’s going on in my life currently, which is always my favourite place to write from,” said Walker on the inspiration for “<a contents="Home Town Home" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/alli-walker/353940870"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Home Town Home</strong></span></a>.” “I’m in the process of moving to my husband’s hometown, so it was easy to look back on the things I loved most about growing up in a small town, like parking lot hangouts and bonfires on Saturday nights. I know as long as I have some of those pieces, I will feel right at home in any new place.” </p>
<p>Teased earlier this year on Walker’s skyrocketing <strong>TikTok</strong> (10M+ views), ”<a contents="Home Town Home" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/alli-walker/353940870"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Home Town Home</strong></span></a>” elicited an overwhelming response from fans, who demanded the track be included on Walker’s upcoming sophomore album. “I was posting demos from my upcoming album, asking fans to help me choose which tracks to include and this song had one of the biggest responses, so I knew I had to record it,” said Walker. “I’ve had thousands of people message me since posting the demo asking where in the world this song was; so I am beyond excited to finally release it!” </p>
<p>Since dropping her debut in 2019 Walker has made quite the mark on the Canadian country music scene, finding her sound and carving her own path in the industry. Boasting over 1M+ streams, Walker has landed spots on some of Canada’s top playlists including covers on both <strong>Apple Music’s ‘Canada’s Country</strong>’ and <strong>Amazon Music’s</strong> ‘<strong>Breakthrough Country</strong>.’ Continuing the momentum from the release of her first track to Canadian country radio with “<a contents="Maybe I’m Still Drunk" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/7nspbN0Rr5jTKLOqJoUnPj?si=wu5DlJB_RuO92QtYJSCvBg&nd=1"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Maybe I’m Still Drunk</strong></span></a>” to kick off 2022, Walker recently garnered her second nomination at the <strong>CMAOntario</strong> <strong>Awards</strong> in the<strong> Rising Star </strong>category and played at the <strong>CMAO Tailgate Party</strong> in London, ON June 5. </p>
<p>Walker will be sharing more new music in the coming months and fans are encouraged to watch for her sophomore album in early 2023.</p>

<p>On the band’s podcast, <strong>The Road Case</strong>, <a contents="Nice Horse" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.nicehorsemusic.com/"><span style="color:#3399cc;"><strong>Nice Horse</strong></span></a> often welcome female guests from the industry, many of whom have similar war stories to share. The podcast is part of <a contents="Be Nice Nation" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.mybenicenation.com/"><span style="color:#ffcc99;"><strong>Be Nice Nation</strong></span></a>, a “lifestyle brand, community, and media empire” the band created during the pandemic that finds them partnering with organizations and spearheading initiatives that support women’s rights, the LGBTQ+ community, and mental health wellness. It gives <a contents="Wodelet" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.nicehorsemusic.com/"><span style="color:#3399cc;"><strong>Wodelet</strong></span></a>, vocalist-bassist <a contents="Brandi Sidoryk" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.nicehorsemusic.com/"><span style="color:#3399cc;"><strong>Brandi Sidoryk</strong></span></a>, guitarist <a contents="Tara McLeod" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.nicehorsemusic.com/"><span style="color:#3399cc;"><strong>Tara McLeod</strong></span></a> and vocalist-guitarist-banjo player <a contents="Katie Rox" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.nicehorsemusic.com/"><span style="color:#3399cc;"><strong>Katie Rox</strong></span></a> a chance to work with communities and issues that are near and dear to them. But there was also a practical motivation for starting it.</p>
<p><em>“One of the reasons we really wanted to develop Be Nice Nation was because we don’t want to have to be constantly hammering these things we believe in into our music,” Wodelet says. “When they come up, they come up organically and that’s great. Cowgirl, obviously, is really alive with our values. It’s not about what you wear, or where you come from, or who you are or who you identify as: Anybody is welcome in country music. When these things come up in our music — and they do, obviously, because we believe in them — that’s great. But we wanted a place where we could purposely be spreading these important social justice messages even when we are promoting a single that doesn’t have a political bent or social justice angle. Because it becomes insincere after a while. If you’re putting out message songs one after another, I think that becomes exhausting. Music for us is also fun and we don’t want to always be sitting down to write and thinking ‘what feminist message can we force into this one?’ Sometimes we just want to write a song.”</em></p>

<p>Signed to <strong>MDM Recordings Inc</strong>. in 2019, Surrey, BC’s <a contents="Tyler Joe Miller" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://tylerjoemiller.com/site.php/"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>Tyler Joe Miller</strong></span></a> quickly began to make a name for himself in Canadian country music and continues his meteoric rise with the release of his latest single ‘<strong>Wild As Her</strong>’. After releasing his <strong>gold-certified</strong> debut single, ‘<strong>Pillow Talkin</strong>’’ at the end of 2019, the catchy tune quickly earned him the title of <strong>iHeartRadio Future Star</strong> and became his first #1 single at Canadian country radio. What followed was an unprecedented and record-breaking climb with follow-up single ‘<strong>I Would Be Over Me Too</strong>’, which steadily rose on the charts and earned Miller the distinction as the first independent Canadian country artist to reach #1 at radio with their first two singles. His debut EP Sometimes <strong>I Don’t, But Sometimes I Do</strong> has amassed over 20 million combined streams to date, with sophomore single ‘<strong>Fighting</strong>’ hitting the Top 10 and title-track ‘<strong>Sometimes I Do</strong>’ reaching the Top 5 respectively. Most recently, Miller was named<strong> SiriusXM’s 2021 Top of the Country winner</strong> and was <strong>nominated</strong> for <strong>four 2021 CCMA Awards</strong> including “<strong>Album of the Year</strong>”, “<strong>Male Artist of the Year</strong>”, “<strong>Rising Star</strong>”, and “<strong>Fan’s Choice</strong>”. Continuing with the momentum from his meteoric rise in 2021, Miller is back in the studio and continuously working on new music to be released later this year.</p>

<p>Kelly is a third-generation singer-songwriter (Daughter of <strong>Tracey Brown</strong> & <strong>Randall Prescott</strong> of Family Brown) and is currently on the “<strong>Some Things Never Change Tour</strong>” with <strong>Dallas Smith</strong>, opening the show across the country! The past year has been a whirlwind for singer-songwriter <a contents="Kelly Prescott" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.kellyprescottmusic.com/"><span style="color:#0099cc;"><strong>Kelly Prescott</strong></span></a> since the release of her acclaimed EP “<strong>Love Wins</strong>.” The self-penned six-song collection earned Prescott her first ever <strong>CCMA Award nomination</strong> for “<strong>Roots Album of the Year</strong>” and two <strong>CMAO nominations</strong> for “<strong>Album of the Year</strong>” and “<strong>Roots Artist of the Year</strong>.” In addition to her current tour with <strong>Dallas Smith</strong>, Prescott has toured all over North America with such acts as <strong>Alan Doyle</strong>, <strong>Kyle Cook</strong> (Matchbox 20), <strong>Terri Clark</strong>, <strong>Dallas Smith</strong>, <strong>Jim Cuddy</strong>, <strong>Colin James</strong>, and <strong>Dean Brody</strong>!</p>
<p>In music as in sports, there are so-called naturals. And then there is <a contents="Kelly Prescott" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.kellyprescottmusic.com/"><span style="color:#0099cc;"><strong>Kelly Prescott</strong></span></a>, whose fate as a country star destined for marquee stages around the globe was pretty much sealed in the womb. </p>
<p>As a third-generation singer-songwriter and bona fide country music blueblood, Prescott’s career choice has always been obvious. But the speed at which the wildly charismatic performer has realized her goals has been extraordinary.</p>
<p>To wit: as Prescott’s dazzling and sonically multifaceted third EP <strong><a contents="Cloud 9" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/kelly-prescott/405400306"><span style="color:#e74c3c;">Cloud 9</span></a> </strong>drops June 30, she will be on-stage in Toronto near the end of a major arena tour alongside Canuck country superstar and long-time pal <strong>Dallas Smith</strong>. </p>
<p>Smith is not only Prescott’s biggest cheerleader but also on her management team. Why? Because <a contents="Kelly Prescott" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.kellyprescottmusic.com/"><span style="color:#0099cc;"><strong>Kelly Prescott</strong></span></a> recently thrilled audiences across Canada supporting <strong>Alan Doyle</strong>. Smith knows towering talent when he hears it. </p>
<p>Also, by the time of Cloud 9’s release, its lead single “<strong>Convertible</strong>” — the rip-snortin’ honky-tonk corker and follow-up to the winning singles “<strong>Trailer Trashed</strong>” from late 2021 and “<strong>Church</strong>” from 2020 — has been igniting country music charts from Nanaimo to Nashville, handily showcasing Prescott’s massively expressive voice.</p>
<p><strong>Warner Music Canada</strong> recording artist <a contents="Kelly Prescott" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.kellyprescottmusic.com/"><span style="color:#0099cc;"><strong>Kelly Prescott</strong></span></a> has released her new single “<strong>Convertible</strong>.” The third-generation singer-songwriter and bona fide country music blueblood will be releasing the unapologetically steamy single everywhere music is available. Prescott will celebrate the release of the new single from the stage where she will be supporting country music superstar <strong>Dallas Smith</strong> on a 24-date Canadian tour. The dates run from May 24 all the way through to June 30 with stops in Winnipeg, Toronto, Kamloops and Saskatoon to name just a few. </p>
<p>Of the new song, Prescott says, “That song came from me wanting to get home to do dirty things with my baby. I am a fast driver, not going to lie, and one day I was in such a rush to get home to my man and there were all these slow drivers and I just kept thinking, ‘Do none of you need to get home to someone you love?’” </p>
<p>If the planets align, at that moment, those lucky enough to have seen Prescott performing in 2018 at the famed <strong>Grand Ole Opry</strong> with brother Kaylen and their parents — a.k.a. two-thirds of the trio <strong>Prescott-Brown</strong>, the sequel to the <strong>Family Brown</strong>, one of Canada’s most successful and longest-running country combos — will realize they witnessed history. </p>
<p><em>“Stepping into that circle where all my heroes have played and doing it with my family and my partner (guitarist-songwriter) Chad Murphy, was indescribable,” Prescott says from her Toronto home, adding that the Opry gig was at the invitation of <strong>Family Brown</strong> super-fan <strong>Terri Clark</strong>. “And now this tour with Dallas?” she adds. “I can’t wait to cross that one off the list.” </em></p>
<p>Yup, Prescott is skyrocketing in the tradition of her kin. <strong>Canadian Country Music Hall of Famers</strong> the Family Brown, featuring Prescott’s mom Tracey, aunt Lawanda, uncle Barry, and late maternal grandfather <strong>Joe Brown</strong>, holds the record for most <strong>CCMA awards</strong> won by any artist (a staggering 18) among countless other achievements. </p>
<p>Not to be outdone, musician dad <strong>Randall Prescott</strong> scored an unprecedented <strong>10 consecutive wins for CCMA</strong> <strong>Country Music Producer of the Year</strong>, also earning a <strong>Grammy nod</strong> for his engineering work on Robbie Robertson’s 1998 album <strong>Contact</strong> from the <strong>Underworld of Redboy</strong>. Mom <strong>Tracey Brown</strong>, meanwhile, has been a chart staple (and multiple Juno Award nominee and winner) both solo and with her bands. </p>
<p>Impressive and inspiring for sure, yet Prescott’s music is her own. And the five tracks on <a contents="Cloud 9" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/kelly-prescott/405400306"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Cloud 9</strong></span></a>, which run the gamut from “70s soul to modern country to a bit of pop,” represent a fraction of Prescott’s musical scope, which she has been developing, often in tandem with brother <strong>Kaylen Prescott</strong>, literally her entire life. </p>
<p><em>“My parents ran a very successful recording studio (Lakeside, in the Ottawa Valley). My playground was between it and a tour bus,” Prescott chuckles. “I always knew this was going to be the life I chose. I loved attention, having an audience, dressing up, singing for anyone who would listen. I begged my parents to let me be on stage which they did from the time I was four or five.” </em></p>
<p>Despite her intense drive — observe two previous solo EPs (2020’s Love Wins and 2016’s Hillbilly Jewels) plus a pair of albums with former band The Claytones (2013’s Reserva and 2012’s Lake in the Night) all cut in a decade — Prescott couldn’t outrun the pandemic, which forced her to slow down and regroup. </p>
<p><em>“Cloud 9 was escapism for me. I was feeling so down, as were many of my peers when we realized that we were the least essential workers on the planet,” she laughs. “We all kind of lost our identities overnight.'' </em></p>
<p><em>“But even though I was down, I didn’t want to listen to sad songs. I wanted something that made me feel good. That’s where this EP came from, insisting that I feel good and dance around and see what cloud nine felt like. The song ‘Cloud 9’ started dark but ended up light.” </em></p>
<p>Indeed, even amid Cloud 9’s considerable sonic splendour, its title track is positively grandiose, opening with a suite of swirling strings and cotton-candy harmonies sailing steadily upwards towards a rousing climax framed by Prescott’s acrobatic voice. The song then dissolves like a rainbow. </p>
<p>The single too, is an absolute scorcher. “That song came from me wanting to get home to do dirty things with my baby,” Prescott howls. “I am a fast driver, not going to lie, and one day I was in such a rush to get home to my man and there were all these slow drivers and I just kept thinking, ‘Do none of you need to get home to someone you love?’” </p>
<p>Prescott continues, “Most of these songs were written last September at Big Bear Lake in California with (acclaimed songwriters) <strong>Brandon Rogers</strong> and <strong>Jason Mater</strong>. At one point, Mater just started playing this moody little ‘do-do-do’ riff and right away, I knew we had a driving song that needed to be called ‘<strong>Convertible</strong>.’” </p>
<p>Another notable track on the new EP is the pleading, mandolin-goosed ballad “<strong>Common Ground</strong>” co-written with Nashville-based <strong>Sadie Campbell</strong> and Halifax’s <strong>Dave Sampson</strong>. “It’s a very personal song, about the impact of the last two years. That’s old-school Kelly,” Prescott says, “very rootsy. </p>
<p>“I just feel so lucky, especially having Dallas in my corner since 2019. He knew I was having a hard time finding a home for <strong>Love Wins</strong>. He just called me one day and said, ‘What do you need to make this EP happen.’ I honestly don’t know where I’d be right now without his involvement. </p>
<p>“All my EPs have told the story of where I am in my life,” Prescott adds. “<strong>Love Wins</strong> was me coming out of a divorce and entering a new relationship. With <a contents="Cloud 9" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/kelly-prescott/405400306"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Cloud 9</strong></span></a>, I’ve been in the same relationship for five years and I’m happier than I have ever been. And now I’m touring with biggest country star in Canada. I mean, I really am living the dream.”</p>

<p>Emerson Drive’s astounding career, spanning over 20 years lands them at a place that few musical groups reach. Since bursting onto the scene in North America in 2001 when they released their debut single via <strong>DreamWorks Records Nashville</strong>, the band's first two singles – “<a contents="I Should Be Sleeping" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1efrXlPhLKv7PvgUxVcqIS?si=m56DwI_RTCOlpdMKVWbPsw&nd=1"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>I Should Be Sleeping</strong></span></a>” and "<a contents="Fall Into Me" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1efrXlPhLKv7PvgUxVcqIS?si=m56DwI_RTCOlpdMKVWbPsw&nd=1"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Fall Into Me</strong></span></a>" - both peaked in the Top 5 on the Billboard Country chart and quickly became fan favorites. The sextet crisscrossed North America for the next four years, playing over 300 shows a year and racking up <strong>Billboard Music Award & Academy of Country Music Association Award</strong> wins for <strong>Top New Country Artist & Top New Group</strong>, respectively. </p>
<p>But, it was the career-changing song "<a contents="Moments" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1efrXlPhLKv7PvgUxVcqIS?si=m56DwI_RTCOlpdMKVWbPsw&nd=1"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Moments</strong></span></a>" that gave the band their first Billboard #1 single in the US in June 2007. The group, which at the time, was comprised of members <a contents="Brad Mates" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.emersondrive.com/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Brad Mates</strong></span></a>, <a contents="Danick Dupelle" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.emersondrive.com/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Danick Dupelle</strong></span></a>, <a contents="Mike Melancon" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.emersondrive.com/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Mike Melancon</strong></span></a>, <a contents="David Pichette" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.emersondrive.com/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>David Pichette</strong></span></a>, <a contents="Dale Wallace" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.emersondrive.com/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Dale Wallace</strong></span></a> & <a contents="Patrick Bourque" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.emersondrive.com/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Patrick Bourque</strong></span></a>, was flying high on success when Bourque decided to step back from the group and leave the road. In September of 2007, <a contents="Patrick Bourque" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.emersondrive.com/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Patrick Bourque</strong></span></a> passed away from suicide, and “<a contents="Moments" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1efrXlPhLKv7PvgUxVcqIS?si=m56DwI_RTCOlpdMKVWbPsw&nd=1"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Moments</strong></span></a>” took on a whole new meaning for the band. </p>
<p><em>“It’s still the song that connects with fans the most. The amount of letters, social media messages, and stories we have heard over the years around ‘Moments’ and how it has saved people’s lives or made a difference in their lives still is crazy to us”, says Dupelle. “That’s why we all do music. It’s to connect with the listeners and leave a mark.” </em></p>
<p> In 2011, ED released their first greatest hits package featuring ten of their hit singles – <strong>Decade of Drive</strong> – and have since gone on to achieve 12 more Top 10 singles in Canada, bringing their total to an astounding 22 Top 10 hits (so far). In 2013, they achieved their first gold single in Canada with “<a contents="She’s My Kind of Crazy" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1efrXlPhLKv7PvgUxVcqIS?si=m56DwI_RTCOlpdMKVWbPsw&nd=1"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>She’s My Kind of Crazy</strong></span></a>” which is still a fan favorite nearly eight years later. Pichette also stepped back from the band in 2013 to spend more time with his family, making ED a quartet with Mates, Dupelle, Melancon, and Wallace still active members. </p>
<p>Over the last five years, while they spend less time on the road, <a contents="Emerson Drive" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.emersondrive.com/"><span style="color:#16a085;"><strong>Emerson Drive</strong></span></a> remains a consistent force in the country music landscape. </p>
<p><em>Mates says, “We are at a place where we know what we want and have a balance between our personal lives and our life on the road. We get the best of both worlds. I don’t think you can ever expect in this industry that you get to have a two decade plus career. It says so much about our fans, radio support, and the ambition we still have to keep going as a group.” </em></p>
<p>As it was for many, 2020 was a year of transition and evaluating what 2021 would look like as <a contents="Emerson Drive" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.emersondrive.com/"><span style="color:#16a085;"><strong>Emerson Drive</strong></span></a> went into their 20th anniversary since the release of “<a contents="I Should Be Sleeping" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1efrXlPhLKv7PvgUxVcqIS?si=m56DwI_RTCOlpdMKVWbPsw&nd=1"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>I Should Be Sleeping</strong></span></a>”. 2020 saw the guys also hit milestones to be celebrated including their second gold record in Canada for “<a contents="Just Got Paid" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1efrXlPhLKv7PvgUxVcqIS?si=m56DwI_RTCOlpdMKVWbPsw&nd=1"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Just Got Paid</strong></span></a>” and “<a contents="She’s My Kind of Crazy" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1efrXlPhLKv7PvgUxVcqIS?si=m56DwI_RTCOlpdMKVWbPsw&nd=1"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>She’s My Kind of Crazy</strong></span></a>” which was officially <strong>certified platinum</strong>. </p>
<p>2021 delivered new music with ''<a contents="Footprints on the Moon" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1efrXlPhLKv7PvgUxVcqIS?si=m56DwI_RTCOlpdMKVWbPsw&nd=1"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Footprints on the Moon</strong></span></a>'' a song full of optimism that is sure to bring a breath of fresh air to the world at this moment! The positive dynamic kicks in the minute the song begins, reassuring us that there is still hope and many wonderful things to happen, so we keep optimistic. The chorus of this hook-laden song says it all. “Don’t tell me the sky’s the limit, when there’s footprints on the moon.” </p>

''Cadence has been a force in Canadian country music from the moment she hit the stage for the very first time. She has a true God-given voice that is so recognizable on country radio today. Cadence has been missed by us all here in the music industry. I had the chance to sit down and have a candid talk about her cancer diagnosis, her dreams in music that were abruptly put on hold, and the next chapter in her inspirational story. Cadence shares some pretty incredible stories about her music journey including writing her new single with her parents, ''<strong>Bruce</strong> and <strong>Cherly Wallace</strong>.'' </p>
<p>Supportive of her career from the beginning, Grace thought writing with her parents would be fun, but she never expected it would spawn her first single back as a solo artist.</p>
<p><em>“I had recently started learning production and as soon as we finished writing it, I produced the demo and then took it to my producer Adam Newcomb, and we finished cutting it together. There was just something about it that re-lit that fire I’ve been missing. Until then, I honestly wasn’t sure if I was going to go back to music as an artist. But it just felt right. It was one of the first songs I’ve gotten to really be the driver on, and it ended up sounding exactly how I Imagined.'' </em></p>
<p>With her second life in front of her and open-ended potential on the horizon, <a contents="Cadence Grace" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.cadencegrace.com/"><span style="color:#ff9999;"><strong>Cadence Grace</strong></span></a> - multi-faceted singer, songwriter, and a person who has bravely kicked cancer to the curb - is aggressively resuming her pursuit of her lifelong dream. </p>

<p><a contents="Cadence Grace" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.cadencegrace.com/"><span style="color:#ff9999;"><strong>Cadence Grace</strong></span></a> is the REAL "comeback kid". Formerly the lead singer of country trio <strong>Runaway Angel</strong>, Grace spent six years building her music career when a surprise leukemia diagnosis shook her world and put her on the sidelines for nearly four years. After undergoing a life-saving stem-cell transplant leaving her literally and figuratively 're-born’, Grace is coming at her career with a whole new outlook and appreciation. "<a contents="Don't" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/dont-single/1624122418"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Don't</strong></span></a>" is just the beginning of a new chapter that she’s starting as a veteran in the business with an entire industry supporting her!</p>
<p><em>"Cancer showed me that I can do anything, even if it scares me to death. It made me want to take risks. I'm not second-guessing myself anymore... I know I can do this. I deserve to do this." ~Cadence Grace </em></p>
<p>With that mindset and a second chance at life, <a contents="Cadence Grace" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.cadencegrace.com/"><span style="color:#ff9999;"><strong>Cadence Grace</strong></span></a> is BACK!!! </p>
<p>"<a contents="Don't" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/dont-single/1624122418"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Don't</strong></span></a>" is a confident goodbye (with a touch of sass) to the past, and an ex that no longer has control. </p>
<p>This song is a stunning showcase of Cadence's unmistakable sound (crisp, clean and powerful vocals) paired with fantastic production making this a brilliant rebirth of Cadence's music career as a solo artist (formerly, the lead singer of Runaway Angel)! </p>

<p>Canadian pop-folk band <a contents="The East Pointers" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.eastpointers.ca/"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>The East Pointers</strong></span></a>, released their powerful new single “<a contents="Stronger Than You Know" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/the-east-pointers/931616893"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Stronger Than You Know</strong></span></a>” via <strong>Nettwerk Records</strong> and all streaming platforms. </p>
<p>“The concept for “<a contents="Stronger Than You Know" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/the-east-pointers/931616893"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Stronger Than You Know</strong></span></a>” came from an epic winter storm that hit Koady’s house on the Eastern shore of Prince Edward Island. We wrote this song a few days later with <strong>Colin MacDonald</strong> (of The Trews) and talked about battening down the hatches when life throws a storm at you (Koady literally had to nail a 2x4 across his door). We were thinking about everyone around the world suddenly dealing with different situations during a pandemic, and the struggles of mental health,” said Jake Charron. </p>
<p>In January this year, the band suffered an unimaginable loss with the sudden passing of beloved band member <a contents="Koady Chaisson" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.eastpointers.ca/"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Koady Chaisson</strong></span></a>. The new music has Koady’s musical footprint on it as the band was well into the new EP sessions just prior to his untimely death. </p>
<p>The new single is a real departure from the band's previous body of work and showcases their undeniable musical chops and reminds listeners that they are stronger than they think even when times get tough. Written by <a contents="Tim Chaisson" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.eastpointers.ca/"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Tim Chaisson</strong></span></a>, <a contents="Jake Charron" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.eastpointers.ca/"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Jake Charron</strong></span></a>, <a contents="Koady Chaisson" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.eastpointers.ca/"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Koady Chaisson</strong></span></a>, and <strong>Colin MacDonald</strong> and produced by <strong>Derek Hoffman</strong> (Arkells, The Trews, Silverstein), the upbeat and decidedly folk/pop tune (with barely a fiddle in earshot!) is on track to reach a wider audience and add to the impressive 20 million career streams they have amassed to date. </p>
<p>“This was one of the first songs that we worked on during our lock-down writing sessions in Charlottetown, with Colin on Zoom from Toronto. We had some of the music worked out from our last tour in Australia and we're piecing together a few pieces. Koady’s tenor guitar riff right off the top, for example, was just waiting for the right song, and it all came together with our wizard of a producer Derek Hoffman”, continued Jake. </p>
<p>Since forming in 2014, the band has continued to be furiously energetic, musically complex, and technically brilliant and now a family grounding as the seventh generation of traditional Prince Edward Island and Ontario-based Celtic players and writers have effortlessly parlayed into the folk-pop arena. </p>
<p>Gaining international recognition as musical trailblazers, the band has continued to rise to success, after releasing their debut album <a contents="Secret Victory" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/the-east-pointers/931616893"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Secret Victory</strong></span></a> in late 2015 and performing in Canada, the United States, and Australia. The band has also received achievements including a <strong>JUNO Award for Traditional Roots Album of the Year in 2017</strong> for <strong>Secret Victory</strong>, the <strong>Canadian Folk Music Award</strong> for <strong>Ensemble of the Year</strong> at the 12th <strong>Canadian Folk Music Awards</strong> in 2016, and nominations for <strong>Instrumental Group of the Year</strong> and <strong>Canadian Folk Music Award</strong> as <strong>Ensemble of the Year</strong> again in 2018. </p>
<p>The multi-award-winning band is back on the road with new music (and a new sound) from their forthcoming EP, as well as a back catalog of the off-the-hook tunes and anthemic songs that have made them festival favourites over the years.</p>

I have two more songs at the end of this interview that you will want to hear as well so enjoy this one. </p>
<p>Katy is a very special soul and storyteller in the music that she releases. She delivers with lyrics that are pure and straight from the deepest part of her heart telling her most personal stories to date with her latest new music. There is a surprise in this interview as well. A sneak peek with Katy playing a snippet of a very personal song you don't want to miss that hasn't been heard or released. There is some pretty special music coming from this artist and I really hope you enjoy this interview as much as I did. </p>
<p>Katy Topham’s newest single “<a contents="The Hurtin’ and the Heart" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/katy-topham/1494771398"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>The Hurtin’ and the Heart</strong></span></a>” was co-written with the accomplished songwriter <a contents="Carrie DeMaeyer" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.carriedemaeyer.com/"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>Carrie DeMaeyer</strong></span></a>. It focuses on both the struggle and the beauty seen in a committed relationship. </p>
<p>“Ultimately it’s a love song about my own marriage; a dedication to my husband.” It’s a song about the joys and the pain of holding on to someone so closely; hard work combined with the mystery of things we can’t quite put our finger on. </p>

<p>In 2019, as <a contents="Ryan McMahon" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://ryanmcmahon.com/"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>Ryan McMahon</strong></span></a> returned from Tonder Festival in Denmark, the opportunity to play with and meet Canadian Country Music singer <strong>Aaron Pritchett</strong> marked the embarking on a new chapter in music. Pritchett took Ryan under his wing and lit a new fire under McMahon’s feet as the pandemic settled into the hearts of people around the world. After a few attempts at telling the story, Ryan wrote “<a contents="One More Fire" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/ryan-mcmahon/278505342"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>One More Fire</strong></span></a>” as a calling card for how his passion for music has been reignited. </p>
<p>Canadian singer/songwriter <a contents="Ryan McMahon" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://ryanmcmahon.com/"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>Ryan McMahon</strong></span></a> has made his mark on the U.S. Country radio market with the upbeat and catchy new single “<a contents="One More Fire" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/ryan-mcmahon/278505342"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>One More Fire</strong></span></a>.”</p>
<p>Produced in Vancouver, British Columbia at <strong>Bryan Adams’</strong> <strong>The Warehouse studio</strong> by <strong>Jordan Pritchett</strong> and <strong>Danielle King</strong>, the track features top-notch talent, including <strong>Scott Smith</strong> on Electric Guitar and Banjo (Aaron Pritchett), Bryan Adams’ veteran <strong>Pat Steward</strong> on Drums,<strong> Jeremy Holmes</strong> on Bass and Mandolin (Steve Dawson), <strong>Darryl Havers</strong> on Organ (Jim Byrnes) and McMahon on Guitar.</p>
<p><em>Up to the place with the craziest views <br>I want to remember what brought me to you <br>One more fire, talking only in truths <br>I want to be happy <br>I want to be </em></p>
<p><em>Light me one more fire <br>sing a song of another time <br>tomorrow's on my mind <br>what's ahead of me is better than what's behind (R. McMahon)</em></p>
<p>McMahon was inspired to write the song midway through the pandemic – when his creativity and “spark” were both lagging. “For a performer, the isolation really had an impact. This is the song that got me motivated again and I’ve been waiting for a chance to get into the hearts of people throughout North America. I want to be a part of what brings love, joy and happiness back into folks’ lives and I believe ‘One More Fire’ is my best chance to do that.”</p>
<p>Over the years, Ryan has shared the stage with <strong>Buffy Ste. Marie</strong> and <strong>Nickelback</strong> to Canadian country artists <strong>Chad Brownlee</strong>, <strong>Brett Kissel</strong>, <strong>Dallas Smith</strong>, and <strong>Aaron Pritchett</strong>. His talent, persona, and musicality opened many doors to the range of genres encompassed in his songs. </p>
<p>"Of course, songs and art are subjective things, but to me 'One More Fire' represents that yearning to obtain connectivity to the human race around me,” says Ryan. “That feeling in my belly that I had when it was the night before the battle of the bands in high school; or that notion that tomorrow I'm going into a new city to meet that community and make 'em sing, laugh, cry or dance or all of it all at the same time.” </p>
<p>Ryan admits that after years of scratching, clawing, winning, losing, and going through a pandemic that put the brakes on the entertainment industry, the fire to create and perform remains burning in his heart -- and won't be extinguished anytime soon. </p>

<p>''I love the new chapter in McMahon's musical journey. McMahon unveils his new song exploring the yearning to connect with the people around him, the communities he visits, and his audience drawing on that inspiration that lits that fire in his belly. We all yearn to connect with one another in our own daily lives and this new single reminds us all of the simplest of things that can bring you that joy. Sometimes we all need a little reminder to get back to our roots and feel inspired about life again and how we are choosing to live it. McMahon has found that inspiration and I am very excited to hear all the new music he has been working on. I can feel great things coming from McMahon and I can wait.'' </p>

<p><a contents="Four Good Years" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/andrew-hyatt/1440483972"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Four Good Years</strong></span></a>, the latest eight-track offering from celebrated award-winning country artist <a contents="Andrew Hyatt" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.andrewhyattmusic.com/"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>Andrew Hyatt</strong></span></a>, is out now via <strong>604 Records</strong>. </p>
<p><em>Says Hyatt of the EP, “when we started working on the EP that would eventually become Four Good Years, the focus was to make a collection that had something for everyone. On my last record, I wanted to build songs that felt like rock and roll in all forms, and while the same could be said for Four Good Years, I also wanted to tap into some lighter topics and melodies. From tracks like ‘Still Somethin’’ to ‘You Ain’t Runnin’ Yet,’ this EP has everything you’ve come to expect from me, as well as a few surprises.” </em></p>
<p>Hyatt debuted lead single ‘<a contents="Close To You" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6L1jfL0BaxCDXCcy51CEcg"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Close To You</strong></span></a>’ earlier this year, with the official video making its broadcast premiere on ETCanada and garnering nearly 75k views in just a few short weeks. The song continues to climb the charts on country radio and of the track shares Hyatt, “for me, ‘<a contents="Close To You" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6L1jfL0BaxCDXCcy51CEcg"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Close To You</strong></span></a>’ is without a doubt a feel-good song. The lyrics, melody, and tempo come together to raise spirits and uplift, while still having enough depth to hold on to.” </p>
<p>Hyatt celebrated the release of <a contents="Four Good Years" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/andrew-hyatt/1440483972"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Four Good Years</strong></span></a> on May 6th, taking to the stage at Toronto’s legendary <strong>El Mocambo</strong>, debuting new music and a selection of hits for his official album release party.

<p>Kissel's charismatic personality, energetic stage presence, and music style have propelled him to the top of the Canadian Country music charts, with two Gold-certified albums, three Platinum (including the album version of “She Drives Me Crazy”), and eight Gold singles, and 15 top-10 radio hits to his credit. 2019-2020 was a storybook year for Brett, winning the JUNO Award (equivalent to the American Grammy) for Country Album of the Year and earning the Canadian Country Music Association's Fans' Choice Award, following a record-breaking 112-date tour that reached every single province and territory. In 2019, he completed two legs of his headlining tour, marked as Canada's most extensive tour ever, selling out venues and electrifying fans from coast-to-coast-to coast. The Canadian Press crowned him "The New King of Canadian Country."</p>
<p>The accolades continued in 2020, when Brett was the big winner of the CCMA Awards, earning four trophies, including Fans' Choice, Male Artist of the Year, and Album of the Year. Kissel launched in the U.S. in the Fall of 2019 with the release of "Drink About Me." The music video for the song featured Bachelor Nation fan favorites Kaitlyn Bristowe and Jason Tartick (view here). The video premiered on Entertainment Tonight and garnered attention from PEOPLE Magazine, OK! Magazine, Bustle, E! News, and many more outlets. The music video received significant airplay on CMT Music, and since its release, it has garnered over 40 million streams in the US and Canada combined. As one of the top acts on the Canadian Country music scene, Brett Kissel is on the brink of becoming a household name across the United States. Having toured with Garth Brooks and Brad Paisley, the young entertainer is no stranger to the stage. Kissel is currently in the studio finishing up his upcoming album, due out later in 2022. </p>

<p>Kelowna country singer <a contents="Teigen Gayse" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://teigengayse.com/"><span style="color:#ff9999;"><strong>Teigen Gayse</strong></span></a> has released a new single, <a contents="Messed Up" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1k8sDryfnPptQu6zMlOrp4"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Messed Up</strong></span></a>. </p>
<p>Teigen's new single "<a contents="Messed Up" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/teigen-gayse/1167054444"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Messed Up</strong></span></a>" was written by Teigen, <strong>Jimmy Thow</strong>, <strong>Jordan Oorebeek</strong> & <strong>Chris Buck</strong> and was produced by <strong>Jimmy </strong>and <strong>Jordan</strong>. </p>
<p><em>Of the release, Teigen says: "This last year has been such an incredible journey for me and I’m so excited and proud of the body of music I’ve been creating with my closest friends. My new single 'Messed Up' is about being so undeniably and unapologetically in love with someone. I hope everyone loves it as much as I do". </em></p>
<p>The single has seen great digital streaming support from Amazon Music's Breakthrough Country, Fresh Country, and Brand New Music, and Spotify's Live Country and New Music Friday Canada</p>
<p><em>“I’ve always been fascinated with the writers — wanting to know who created the song,” she said. </em></p>
<p><em>“There is no better feeling than getting to perform something I wrote in front of my fans – its the connection with them that pushes me to work hard.”</em> </p>
<p>Gayse says the desire to create has continued to be fed by trips to Nashville, as well as co-writes with several industry veterans. </p>
<p>A small-town girl of Métis descent with a big voice and an even bigger message — there’s no better way to describe the power of BC-born producer/singer/songwriter <a contents="Teigen Gayse" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://teigengayse.com/"><span style="color:#ff9999;"><strong>Teigen Gayse</strong></span></a>. </p>
<p>She picked up her first guitar at the age of 13. It wasn’t long before songwriting became a passion. It was the ability to tell her own story, in her own words, that began Teigen’s love for country music. That desire to create pushed her to get an audio engineering degree before striking out on her own as a full-time musician. </p>
<p>“I’ve always been fascinated with the writers — wanting to know who created the song,” she explained. “There is no better feeling than getting to perform something I wrote in front of my fans – it's the connection with them that pushes me to work hard.” </p>
<p>That desire to create has continued to be fed by trips to Nashville, as well as co-writes with several industry veterans, including <strong>Brian Howes</strong>, <strong>Phil Barton</strong>, <strong>Patricia Conroy</strong>, <strong>David Thompson</strong>, <strong>Chris Buck</strong>, <strong>Jimmy Thow</strong>, <strong>Chrystal Leigh</strong>, and <strong>Jordan Oorebeek</strong>, just to name a few. </p>
<p>The fact is people are taking notice.</p>
<p>While her 2021 single <a contents="I Don’t Wanna Fall In Love&nbsp;Anymore" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1k8sDryfnPptQu6zMlOrp4"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>I Don’t Wanna Fall In Love Anymore</strong></span></a> has almost 3 Million <a contents="TikTok" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.tiktok.com/@teigengayse"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>TikTok</strong></span></a> views. It took home the honour of Trending Track from Stingray Radio hitting #43 on the Billboard Country Music charts, and amassing over 350,000 streams. Follow up single <a contents="Blame the Wine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1k8sDryfnPptQu6zMlOrp4"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Blame the Wine</strong></span></a> reached #46 on the Billboard charts and is currently on the rise. </p>
<p>Both songs came from a very real place, and for Teigen, there’s no better inspiration than the real world — especially when that means getting to share her personal journey with her audience. </p>

<p>Music was a constant in Charissa’s home growing up. After singing along to hits by Queen, Allison Krauss, Whitney Houston, Stevie Nicks, and Blue Rodeo, her parents decided to enroll her in vocal lessons where she further developed her passion for music and later started to learn to play the guitar.</p>
<p>The Burlington, ON, native is a storyteller, and the best stories are ones that don’t shy from honesty. She has been honing this thoughtful, meditative approach to songwriting since her formative years, combining lush, flowing arrangements to create a sound that is uniquely her own.</p>
<p><a contents="Charissa" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.thisischarissa.com/"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Charissa</strong></span></a> gets real about heartbreak, true love, pain, and ecstasy, with lyrics that testify to well-earned wisdom far beyond her years. That vulnerability, combined with rich, unconfined arrangements, makes her emotional debut EP, <a contents="Love and Be Loved" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/artist/charissa/417086229"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>Love and Be Loved</strong></span></a>, a deeply affecting introduction to one of the most impressive new voices in roots music.</p>
<p><a contents="Charissa" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.thisischarissa.com/"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Charissa</strong></span></a> bares her heart and soul on <a contents="Love and Be Loved" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/artist/charissa/417086229"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>Love and Be Loved</strong></span></a>, produced by <strong>Colin Cripps</strong> (Blue Rodeo member, Jim Cuddy Band) and supported by an impressive list of collaborators that includes <strong>Jessica Mitchell</strong>, <strong>Tom Wilson</strong>, <strong>Jesse O’Brien</strong>, and <strong>Carrie DeMaeyer</strong>. </p>
<p>The weighty, enchanting title track proves to be the record’s most powerful moment, as Charissa‘s soulful voice rises alongside resonant piano, celebrating the magic of time spent with your person. “How wonderful it is to love and be loved,” she noted. “When I thought about that more, it led me to think about not only romantic love but all kinds of love. That’s a beautiful sentiment to put out into the world – to give love and feel it in return.”</p>

<p>About to step onto the stage for the season finale of <strong>Citytv’s Canada’s Got Talent</strong>, today award-winning artist <a contents="Lindsay Ell" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.lindsayell.com/"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>Lindsay Ell</strong></span></a> is celebrating the release of a new single, “<a contents="Right On Time" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://lindsayell.lnk.to/rightontime"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Right On Time</strong></span></a>.” </p>
<p>Putting a voice to the pressure she feels as a career-focused woman in her 30s, “<a contents="Right On Time" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://lindsayell.lnk.to/rightontime"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Right On Time</strong></span></a>” is an anthem for anyone who has felt pressured to be something or someone they aren’t while working on timelines determined by societal norms. </p>
<p>“I think women spend a lot of time feeling like they might miss their ‘time' in life – their time to be beautiful, to be a mother, to have their dream career, to work their ass off. It’s a constant fear that we might miss the very thing we want by focusing on something else, and I think I’m just done worrying about that," said Ell. "This is a new dawn for me. I’m stepping into my new music, unapologetically feeling that I can be certain I’m right where I want to be. '<a contents="Right On Time" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://lindsayell.lnk.to/rightontime"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Right On Time</strong></span></a>' is my own theme song – I’ve been told I’ve missed my chance more times than I can count. If women in country believed that, we would not triumph in the way we always do. So this song is for anyone who needs to hear and be inspired by the idea that you can’t be late to the party in your own life!”</p>
<p>Speaking directly to fans about her fears of falling behind via<strong> <a contents="TikTok" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.tiktok.com/@lindsayellofficial?lang=en"><span style="color:#f1c40f;">TikTok</span></a></strong> earlier this week, Ell is stepping into this next chapter with a new, unmistakable confidence. Captured perfectly in the single’s official music video, the surety found in Ell’s delivery of every note in “<a contents="Right On Time" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://lindsayell.lnk.to/rightontime"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Right On Time</strong></span></a>” marks the beginning of what is bound to be the biggest year yet for the multi-talented artist.</p>

<p>Canada’s genre-bending <a contents="Manny Blu" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://mannyblumusic.com/"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>Manny Blu</strong></span></a> released a country punk version of his original, fan-favourite track “<a contents="Playback" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/track/0y9SLnB8rMhO7FwjGJNZgN"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Playback</strong></span></a>,” found on his debut EP. Paying homage to his first cross-country tour in 2019, this re-release strongly positions Blu as a trailblazer, bringing a new style of country music to stages across Canada this spring on Dallas Smith’s <strong>Some Things Never Change Tour</strong>. </p>
<p><em>“I first released ‘Playback’ in 2019 as part of the Leave It Like It Is EP, when I was on my first-ever Canadian tour,” explained Blu. “It’s wild to think how much has changed since then, both for me personally and in the music industry. I wanted to celebrate my growth as an artist by putting out a new version of this track that brings back so many great memories for me.”</em></p>
<p><a contents="Country Punk" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/track/0y9SLnB8rMhO7FwjGJNZgN"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Country Punk</strong></span></a> EP takes Blu’s created vibe to the next level. The EP is now available worldwide on all streaming services here. </p>
<p>Consisting of songs written by <strong>Stephen Allbritten</strong>, <strong>Ryan Pattengale</strong>, <strong>Jake Olbauhm</strong>, <strong>David Brown</strong>, <strong>Matt Lukasiewicz</strong>, and <strong>Nathan Dohse</strong>, <strong>Country Punk</strong> EP is five tracks of hard-hitting rhythms and Blu’s created way of capturing the lyrical storytelling of country music in sounds of punk rock. This project is extremely special to Blu because he was able to co-produce the project and showcase his originality. </p>
<p>“The Country Punk EP was one that we were able to have fun creating without too much thinking about ‘how it should go’ or ‘what works’ musically” says Blu. “We let the songs be what they should be, what I wanted them to be, and didn’t have to deal with any pressure or restraints from anyone outside the studio. I wanted to make something for me that represented who I am as an artist and the Country Punk lifestyle. We created a vibe for those that don’t fit the mould and invite everyone to enjoy it along with us as we head out on tour.”</p>
<p>This May, Blu will join multi-award winning artist <strong>Dallas Smith</strong> on the <strong>Some Things Never Change Tour</strong>. Kicking off in Brandon, MB on May 24, the tour will see Blu visit 24 markets across Canada throughout the months of May and June. Blu will light up the stage every night with performances of his hit recent tracks “<a contents="Doin’ Fine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/track/0y9SLnB8rMhO7FwjGJNZgN"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Doin’ Fine</strong></span></a>” and "<a contents="Train" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/track/0y9SLnB8rMhO7FwjGJNZgN"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Train</strong></span></a>," as well as his single “<a contents="Valet" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/track/0y9SLnB8rMhO7FwjGJNZgN"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Valet</strong></span></a>” feat. <strong>Brittany Kennel</strong>l, which is currently on Canadian country radio.</p>
<p>Three tracks released ahead of the EP, “<strong>Doin’ Fine</strong>,” <strong>Too Bad So Sad</strong>,” and “<strong>95</strong>,” have already been drawing attention on streaming platforms and playlists. Some well-known playlists include: Spotify’s New Music Nashville and Country Rocks playlists, Apple Music New in Countryplaylist, Tidal’s Rising and Rising: Country playlists, CMT’s “The Roundup” playlist and more. Along with the buzz on his new EP, Blu also announced that he will start 2022 off on tour with <strong>Dallas Smith</strong> on his ‘<strong>Some Things Never Change</strong>’ tour in Canada. Others to join that tour will be <strong>James Barker Band</strong>, <strong>Shaun Austen</strong>, <strong>Meghan Patrick</strong>, and <strong>JoJo Mason</strong>.</p>

<p><a contents="The Trews" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.thetrewsmusic.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>The Trews</strong></span></a> are getting back to what they do best – hitting the road and playing live. The band have lined up several headlining dates across Canada this spring and summer, alongside support slots in Toronto for <strong>Black Crowes</strong>, and St. John’s, NL for the unrivaled <strong>Stone Temple Pilots</strong>. Excited about hitting the road, guitarist John-Angus MacDonald says, “We can’t wait to bring the songs from Wanderer to stages across Canada this spring & summer. The album is full of great live material that we haven’t had a chance to fully air out yet and it all fits in great with the rest of our catalogue. We said it before and we’ll say it again – we wanna play! “ For tickets visit <a contents="HERE" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.thetrewsmusic.com/live/"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>HERE</strong></span></a>.</p>
<p>After hitting their previously announced dates in Estevan, SK, and in between festival appearances and supporting slots for the <strong>Black Crowes</strong>, the band will play new headlining slots in Manitoba, Alberta, Saskatchewan, BC, Ontario, Newfoundland, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia. The trek begins next month with a show in Winnipeg on the 24th and ends in Antigonish on August 19.</p>
<p><a contents="The Trews" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.thetrewsmusic.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>The Trews</strong></span></a> are keeping their live show going with plans for a bunch of new Canadian concerts this summer. To celebrate their expanded tour schedule, they've also shared a video for "<a contents="Enemy" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.thetrewsmusic.com/"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Enemy</strong></span></a>."</p>
<p><em>The single changes things up for the band with lead-guitarist John-Angus writing and singing lead vocals for this one. An interesting story of how this one came to be, John-Angus explains, “My then 5 year old son Elliott had a hand in inspiring this track. Alone time to work on new material when you’re raising two small children is almost non-existent so I find myself playing music with them, or at least with them in the room, often. One day Elliott suggested that I write a song called “I know what it’s like to be the Enemy”. The melody he came up with was more akin to an Iron Maiden song, or some other heavy metal band, then a Trews song. When I asked him why that lyric he said he wanted to hear a song from the perspective of one of the bad guys in a Marvel movie. Anyway, the lyric brought that chord progression and melody out of me almost instantaneously – they seemed married to each other from the very start. A day or two later I penned the verse and kept with that theme of it being from the perspective of the enemy but more the universal enemy, the one within. “</em></p>
<p>Plenty of grand boasts can be made about<strong> <a contents="Wanderer" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.thetrewsmusic.com/"><span style="color:#e74c3c;">Wanderer</span></a></strong>, the blazing seventh studio album from rock ‘n’ roll heavyweights <a contents="The Trews" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.thetrewsmusic.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>The Trews</strong></span></a> and easily their fiercest and most accomplished, garlanded as it is with enough marquee credits and potential smash-hits to spin even jaded heads. </p>
<p>But the Wanderer’s most striking claim may be this: it could not have achieved its acrobatic feats of sonic power had it not been for the lamentable, awful but also weirdly inspiring and motivational global pandemic which made touring impossible and writing and recording the only games in town. </p>
<p>Talk about a silver lining. At least in retrospect. </p>
<p>“This is a really strong rock record from start to finish. Every song was mulled over extensively,” guitarist John-Angus MacDonald says. “The pandemic bought us more time which you always need with songwriting. There are songs that would not be on this record had it happened another way.” </p>
<p>Adds singer/guitarist Colin MacDonald, “We accidentally honed our recording skills because there was no live show to get to.” </p>
<p>Really, who could have predicted that electrifying recording sessions begun in Nashville in December 2019 with Black Crowes guitarist and long-time Trews friend Rich Robinson would be curtailed by an unprecedented Canada/U.S. border closure, resulting in just three songs being completed? </p>
<p>Or predicted that that maddening roadblock and an ensuing lockdown would fortuitously lead, nine months later, to sessions at Jukasa Studios in Caledonia, Ontario opposite Derek Hoffman, yielding three more songs with the fast-rising producer who brilliantly helmed Civilianaires, The Trews’ widely acclaimed forerunner to The Wanderer. And the story didn’t end there. </p>
<p>With the Robinson/Hoffman sessions banked, six additional songs — including blistering COVID-themed corker and lead single “I Wanna Play” and the barn-burning title track — demanded additional studio time in Toronto in late 2020 with producer Eric Ratz. Yes, he of the Gargantuan Rock Sound as evidenced by his much-lauded work with Monster Truck, Arkells, Big Wreck… and now The Trews, whose playing throughout The Wanderer sounds positively atomic. </p>
<p>“This is very much a guitar record. I mean, all our records have had guitars, but we really put the focus on, forgive the cliché, getting back to our roots with stand-out riffs and solos,” John-Angus MacDonald confirms. “Rich is a walking riff, and Eric is a big guitar guy, so that’s just the way it happened.” </p>
<p>In the end, those three disparate, COVID-dictated sessions forced the chart-topping, globe-trotting crew, which includes bassist Jack Syperek, drummer Chris Gormley, and keyboardist Jeff Heisholt, to cohere as a band as never before. The results speak for themselves. </p>
<p>Indeed, even veteran fans of <a contents="The Trews" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.thetrewsmusic.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>The Trews</strong></span></a> will be flattened by the gale force of the before-mentioned single and storming album opener “<a contents="Where Do You Go" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.thetrewsmusic.com/"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Where Do You Go</strong></span></a>,” both cut with Ratz and featuring unabashedly dweedly (but oh-so-cool and air guitar–worthy) guitar solos. </p>
<p>“I love ‘Where Do You Go,’ which is so out-there for us with its weird time changes. And ‘I Wanna Play’ is perfectly indicative of the times: funny, sad, passionate, and it rocks,” says Colin MacDonald, who test- drove the single with fans during Friday night Instagram Live sessions while in lockdown at home. </p>
<p>No new way of working was off the table during sessions for The Wanderer. For example, the three songs recorded with Robinson in Nashville (“Faith and Fumes,” “Permission,” “Hidden Gem”) were cut without a click track, standard studio procedure and the easiest way of tracking changes but also something of a production safety net. </p>
<p>“The songs with Rich were all about committing to the moment,” John-Angus MacDonald says, “and they sound freer as a result.” </p>
<p>“Our paths had been crossing with Rich’s for years,” Colin MacDonald explains of the genesis of the collaboration. “We opened for his side project, the Magpie Salute in the States in 2017, and he opened for us solo acoustic in Canada in 2016. Plus, the Black Crowes are one of our favourite bands.” </p>
<p>Further underscoring their cohesion, <a contents="The Trews" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.thetrewsmusic.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>The Trews</strong></span></a> cut the songs on <a contents="Wanderer" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.thetrewsmusic.com/"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Wanderer</strong></span></a> together as a band rather than piecemeal which, like the click track, is de rigueur — and very much the way <a contents="Civilianaires" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.thetrewsmusic.com/"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Civilianaires</strong></span></a> was constructed. But that method did not reflect the band’s headspace in 2020 even if trading audio files from home-studio safe havens would have been much easier. </p>
<p>“We toured for two years with <a contents="Civilianaires" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.thetrewsmusic.com/"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Civilianaires</strong></span></a> and we wanted to capture that well-oiled band in studio,” John-Angus MacDonald says. “The older I get, the more I realize strengths like that are not a dime a dozen. We wanted to leverage that chemistry.” </p>
<p>Attentive listeners might also notice that the buoyant, pealing “Enemy” features not Colin MacDonald on lead vocals but John-Angus, a Trews first. “Plus, that song is technically a co-write with my then-five- year-old son Elliott because he’s a killer drummer,” he laughs. “He just bashes away with glee, and he came up with some of the lyrics.” </p>
<p>At the other end of the sonic spectrum is the downcast, mournful “Another Year Zero,” a song Colin MacDonald delivers with such furrowed resignation you can practically smell the bourbon on his breath. </p>
<p>“That song is about things taken for granted because something else seems just around the corner,” the singer says. “Other shows to do, other people to meet… but we didn’t factor in a global pandemic. </p>
<p>“It’s a reminder that you can’t take anything for granted, and it’s a reflection of what happens when you’re forced to sit at home alone with yourself. </p>
<p>“This is a transitional album,” Colin MacDonald continues, “and it encapsulates these twin realms of possibility and impossibility. It’s trying to find light during these massively dark times through music. This record was our safe place. We hope it helps others, too.” </p>
<p>“And we cannot wait to tour in May 2022,” John-Angus MacDonald says. “We just want to play again.” </p>

<p>Multi-million selling Canadian singer/songwriters <a contents="Marc Jordan" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.marcjordan.com/"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>Marc Jordan</strong></span></a> and <a contents="Amy Sky" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://amysky.com/"><span style="color:#9b59b6;"><strong>Amy Sky</strong></span></a> release their first-ever album duet collaboration, <a contents="He Sang She Sang" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://hesangshesang.live/"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>He Sang She Sang</strong></span></a> via <strong>Linus Entertainment</strong>. </p>
<p>A collection of fresh takes on beloved classics alongside newly original compositions, the 13-song release marks the first time this prolific duo — married for 34 years — have recorded an entire album together. </p>
<p>In addition to enjoying hits and accolades all their own, the highly acclaimed singer/songwriters and producers have also penned songs for a teeming roster of A-list artists, including <strong>Rod Stewart</strong>, <strong>Diana Ross</strong>, <strong>Chicago</strong>, <strong>Olivia Newton-John</strong>, <strong>Heart</strong>, <strong>Reba McEntire</strong>, <strong>Joe Cocker</strong>, <strong>Bette Midler</strong>, <strong>Bonnie Raitt</strong>, <strong>Cher</strong>, <strong>Cyndi Lauper</strong>, and more. </p>
<p>While opportunities to collaborate with each other would often arise, the industry power couple decided early on to keep their careers largely separate. “We’d dip our toes in, and loved it,” Amy shares, “but never pursued it further; it meant one parent could always be at home with our two children. Our musical styles were distinct, and our marriage was happy — we wanted to keep it that way.” </p>
<p>Now, empty nesters, the pair found the idea of exploring where their voices and genres overlapped intriguing. </p>
<p>Thankfully, the dynamic duo has overcome earlier reluctance to make an album together. Their first duo record, <a contents="He Sang She Sang" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://hesangshesang.live/"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>He Sang She Sang</strong></span></a> is a superbly curated collection of songs that combines fresh takes on some beloved classics with new original compositions. </p>
<p>The covers include songs by <strong>Tom Petty</strong> (<strong>“Free Fallin’”</strong>), <strong>The Beach Boys</strong> (<strong>“God Only Knows”</strong>), <strong>Smokey Robinson</strong> (<strong>“Ooh Baby Baby”</strong>), <strong>Willie Nelson</strong> (<strong>“You Were Always On My Mind”</strong>), and <strong>Bonnie Raitt</strong> (<strong>“You”</strong>), all given vibrant new life here by being performed in a duets format by two masterful vocalists. </p>
<p><a contents="He Sang She Sang" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://hesangshesang.live/"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>He Sang She Sang</strong></span></a> has been a long work in progress, with sessions that took place in Nashville and Toronto since 2014. Marc describes the song selection process this way: “We’d be driving in the car together and would just get an idea for a song. When we got home, we’d sing it, and if we liked the way that went, we’d put a session together and demo it. If it passed that test, we put it on the list.” </p>
<p>The results are an enchanting mix of Jordan’s smoky resonance plus Sky’s alto trading lines effortlessly before bringing their masterful vocals into perfect harmony. Add in the impeccable musical contributions of top session players in both cities, and an album of wide and timeless appeal is revealed. </p>

<p>Continuing the momentum from the release of her sophomore EP, <a contents="WE DID" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/2uEreYoQc89UcxvADYQY2u?si=aZqXLx0TRpeuXRDCprj8FA&nd=1"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>WE DID</strong></span></a>, earlier this year, breakout country star <a contents="SACHA" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.iamsacha.com/"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>SACHA</strong></span></a> turned heads in New York City with a takeover of the <strong>Paramount Times Square</strong> billboards, debuting the official music video for “<a contents="Pretty Please" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/sacha/1515245414"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Pretty Please</strong></span></a>” with <strong>CMT</strong>. Just weeks after stepping onto the <strong>CMT Awards Red Carpet</strong> at her first International Awards Show, <a contents="SACHA" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.iamsacha.com/"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>SACHA</strong></span></a> is checking off another bucket list moment with the premiere of “<a contents="Pretty Please" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/sacha/1515245414"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Pretty Please</strong></span></a>”. Fans caught the video exclusively on<strong> CMT</strong> and <strong>CMT Music</strong>. </p>
<p><em>“I’m so humbled by the support I’ve had over the past few years from CMT and especially Leslie Fram,” said SACHA as she reflected on today’s milestones. “From being included in CMT’s Next Women Of Country Class to premiering the most personal piece of work I’ve ever created, I’m truly blown away by everything they have done for me.” </em></p>
<p><em>“From the moment we started corresponding several years ago, I could tell SACHA had an acute sense of herself and personal journey,” said Leslie Fram, SVP Music & Talent at CMT. “She has captured everything in a beautiful and cinematic way with this song and video for ‘Pretty Please’ and we are honoured to support.” </em></p>
<p>The premiere brought SACHA’s fan-favourite track “<a contents="Pretty Please" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/sacha/1515245414"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Pretty Please</strong></span></a>” to life. Directed by <strong>Ben Knechtel</strong>, the cinematic video captures a more emotional side of country music’s newest it girl. Grounded by the journey many young girls take towards self-confidence, the video beautifully captures the importance of always believing in ourselves.</p>
<p><em>“I want this video to reach anyone who feels like they are not measuring up while trying to keep up with today's impossible standards. I want them all to know that their value goes way beyond the reflection of a mirror and that they have the power to no longer allow others to determine their worth,” explains SACHA. </em></p>
<p>A deeply personal release for <a contents="SACHA" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.iamsacha.com/"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>SACHA</strong></span></a>, “<a contents="Pretty Please" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/sacha/1515245414"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Pretty Please</strong></span></a>” opens a small window into the more vulnerable pages of her story as she reflects back on the barriers she’s had to knock down herself throughout her journey.</p>
<p><em>“Watching the dancer bring a younger version of myself to life for this video was the first time I ever had to hold back tears on set,” said SACHA of her experience during the shoot. “I couldn’t help but feel like I was talking to my younger self throughout the filming, telling her how proud I am of how far we’ve come. I hope this video can be equally as healing for everyone who sees it.” </em></p>
<p><a contents="SACHA" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.iamsacha.com/"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>SACHA</strong></span></a> has kept busy since the release of her sophomore EP <a contents="WE DID" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/2uEreYoQc89UcxvADYQY2u?si=aZqXLx0TRpeuXRDCprj8FA&nd=1"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>WE DID</strong></span></a> in February. Earlier this year the rising star walked her first <strong>CMT Awards Red Carpet</strong> in Nashville, stealing the show as the “diamond of the <strong>CMT Awards</strong>” (Entertainment Tonight) and landing on best-dressed lists for multiple publications like Hello!

Directed by Ryan Nolan, I had the idea to set up my own smash room to physically break things and watch them become brand new again, and Ryan completely jumped on board to bring this vision to life. Funny enough, when we started shooting and came to our first “break”, Ryan asked if I could swing hard enough, and all those years of hitting home runs in softball seemed to really pay off, because it exploded! From there, the video was just so fun to shoot, and it’s also so much fun to watch back and see what Ryan pieced together and created!” </em></p>

<p><a contents="Josh Ramsay" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://joshramsay.com/home/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Josh Ramsay</strong></span></a>, lead vocalist of pop-rock band, <a contents="Marianas Trench" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.marianastrench.net/home/"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Marianas Trench</strong></span></a>, released his debut solo album, ''<a contents="The Josh Ramsay Show" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/5lemlzREG6FOAergTgPi9B"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>The Josh Ramsay Show</strong></span></a>'', via <strong>604 Records</strong>. </p>
<p>The record is a masterpiece of songs meticulously put together to cultivate the merging of genres. The tracks are glued together by Ramsay’s definitive vocals as he unifies the stand-out elements of styles across the music.</p>
<p>Writing <a contents="The Josh Ramsay Show" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/5lemlzREG6FOAergTgPi9B"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>The Josh Ramsay Show</strong></span></a> was an opportunity for Ramsay to step outside of his comfort zone and dig deep, reflecting on his experiences of love and loss, and the confusion that can arise when the two coincide. Over the past two years, he’s experienced the pain of losing both his parents, along with the jubilation of getting married. All of those emotions come out in the songs “<a contents="Miles And Miles" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/5lemlzREG6FOAergTgPi9B"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Miles And Miles</strong></span></a>” (featuring Ramsay’s sister Sara), “<a contents="Spellbound" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/5lemlzREG6FOAergTgPi9B"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Spellbound</strong></span></a>” and “<a contents="Like You Do" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/5lemlzREG6FOAergTgPi9B"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Like You Do</strong></span></a>”. </p>
<p>As with every project he takes on, Ramsay wanted to push his personal limitations and challenge himself as a songwriter, singer, player, and producer. In a true solo effort, Ramsay wrote, produced, and played all the instruments on the new album, with the exception of orchestral parts. Ramsay’s hands-on, experimental approach has always been a defining characteristic of his output as with <a contents="Marianas Trench" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.marianastrench.net/home/"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Marianas Trench</strong></span></a>, and in his role as producer and songwriter for artists like <strong>Carly Rae Jepsen</strong>, whose worldwide hit, ‘<strong>Call Me Maybe</strong>’ garnered Ramsay a <strong>Grammy nomination</strong> and a <strong>SOCAN Award</strong> for “<strong>Most Performed Song</strong>" in SOCAN history. </p>
<p>Ramsay has toured with <a contents="Marianas Trench" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.marianastrench.net/home/"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Marianas Trench</strong></span></a> extensively in North America, Europe, Australia, and Asia. When not on the move, the multi-instrumentalist runs his own recording studio, <a contents="The Umbrella Factory" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.facebook.com/Umbrella-Factory-Studio-192550474095092/"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>The Umbrella Factory</strong></span></a>, in Vancouver, BC.</p>

<p>“‘<a contents="Awakening" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/awakening-single/1611798873"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>Awakening</strong></span></a>’ is as much about the evolution, as it is about the arrival. That feeling of ‘I’m here. This is me. Take it or leave it,’” Charles says about the single. “It’s about re-awakening that fiery spirit within, that we can diminish for the sake of others sometimes . . . So, strive for more. Dream big and don’t take no for an answer. Sharks will inevitably circle. And everyone has an opinion. But I realized that just like diamonds, nothing’s stronger than a woman.” </p>
<p>The three-time JUNO-nominated singer-songwriter <a contents="Nuela Charles" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.nuelacharles.com/"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>Nuela Charles</strong></span></a> is infusing her signature alternative/soul elements into the cathartic track, produced by LA’s <strong>Matt Parad</strong> (Selah Sue, William Joseph Cook). </p>
<p>Charles was recently announced by <strong>The SOCAN Foundation</strong> as a winner of the second annual <strong>Her Music Awards</strong>, which supports and celebrates female-identifying, mid-career Canadian music creators who are on the verge of taking their creative careers to the next level. </p>

''Charles is a force to be reckoned with on both Canadian and global charts with her distinctly soulful voice and emotive empowering lyrics.'' </p>
<p>There’s a line in the song that goes “she tried to be a flower, but found her superpower” and it came out of this thought Charles had, about how we as women are constantly seen as these ‘delicate flowers’ and are usually preferred to be seen that way by society – pretty and quiet. Where in fact, women are woven into all aspects of life and should be proud to stand in that power. </p>
<p>I caught up with Nuela to learn more about her background as a performer, her latest single, and what the future holds. </p>

<p>The Alberta-born country artist <a contents="Dan Davidson" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.dandavidsonmusic.com/"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Dan Davidson</strong></span></a> has created undeniable momentum in the last few years. With <strong>6</strong> <strong>CCMA nominations</strong>, <strong>10 ACMA awards</strong>, a <strong>gold record</strong>, a <strong>#1 selling Canadian song</strong> and record, top 20 charting numbers, and hundreds of performances – it's easy to forget that he is still independent. Dan exploded onto the Canadian country scene in 2016 with the release of his second single “<a contents="Found" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/3Av6JdBs0MuhIPnCqPg6EI"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Found</strong></span></a>” (Co-written by Clayton Bellamy of The Road Hammers). Dan became arguably the indie story of 2016/2017 as his single “<a contents="Found" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/3Av6JdBs0MuhIPnCqPg6EI"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Found</strong></span></a>” rocketed up the charts and he became the #1 charting indie artist in Canada. It was also the #1 selling Canadian country song for several weeks and went on to become certified <strong>GOLD</strong> in Canada. He may be only 5 years into his country career, but Dan is far from “green” in the music industry. He spent over 10 years playing in the well-known Canadian indie rock band <strong>Tupelo Honey</strong> (who had several top 40 hits, top-selling iTunes records, and toured with bands like Bon Jovi). </p>
<p>Canadian Country artist, songwriter, and producer <a contents="Dan Davidson" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.dandavidsonmusic.com/"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Dan Davidson</strong></span></a> recently released his latest EP, <a contents="Six Songs To Midnight" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/dan-davidson/281340086"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Six Songs To Midnight</strong></span></a>, and for him, it represents a subtle turning point in his professional career for a few different reasons. It further cements his decision to move into country music as a songwriter and performer and it also is the product of a conscious choice to try to reach out to country music fans in a more global way, finding the elements in his music that can cross borders best. The album debuted at #1 on iTunes country music charts. This album is a must to listen to. </p>
<p>Davidson says that this body of work <em>“marks the beginning of a transition into more of an artist that ‘lets the music do the talking.'”</em></p>
<p><em>“In the past, I’ve made my mark doing really crazy music videos and almost having a ‘pop-punk of country’ kind of vibe, but I decided to put these 6 songs together on this EP because I felt they really represented a very distinct era of my writing and growth as an artist,” </em></p>
<p><strong>Kim: Congratulations on the release of your new EP “6 Songs To Midnight,” debuting at #1 on iTunes country music charts, that's pretty damn cool. What has this EP meant to you and how have you spent days building up to this release?</strong></p>
<p><em>DD: “It’s been wild! The record debuted at #1 on the Canadian iTunes country charts – so that’s super validating for me. Over the last few weeks leading up to this release I’ve been spending a lot of time on the phone with Australian radio stations actually! 2 of the tracks on this record have been big singles down there for me – including my first top 10 song there ‘Roll With It’ featuring The Road Hammers. I was hard at work running contests for fans to win advanced signed physical copies and planning my release party, which is a collaboration with Ferrari of Alberta!”</em></p>
<p><strong>Kim: You have released several of the songs on this new EP that are amazing tracks. How did you decide what tracks made it onto this ep, and can fans expect to hear the songs that maybe didn’t make it onto the project?</strong></p>
<p><em>DD: “I decided to put these 6 songs together on this EP because I felt they really represented a very distinct era of my writing and growth as an artist. The songs have the classic Dan Davidson ‘get drunk and fall in love’ type song, but there also is this theme of ‘keeping a smile on your face no matter what kind of hell life throws at you – which was accidentally a great message for us all during the last couple years!”</em></p>
<p><strong>Kim: This EP marks the start of a new chapter for you in your music. Tell us about that...</strong></p>
<p><em>DD: “Well I think this record sort of marks the beginning of my transition into more of an artist that ‘lets the music do the talking.’ In the past I’ve made my mark doing really crazy music videos and almost having a ‘pop punk of country’ kind of vibe. I just want to do my best to not repeat myself, challenge myself as an artist, and elevate to that international larger than life type act.”</em></p>
<p>''<a contents="Dan Davidson" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.dandavidsonmusic.com/"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Dan Davidson</strong></span></a> is one of my favorite songwriters in Canadian music today,'' says <a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#9900ff;"><strong>Kim Cyr</strong></span></a>, Editor in Chief for <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#9900ff;"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a>, radio host, and host of the International <a contents="Music's Journey Podcast" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.musicsjourney.com"><span style="color:#0000ff;"><strong>Music's Journey Podcast</strong></span></a>. </p>
<p>Dan wasn't always comfortable about co-writing music with other artists. </p>
<p><strong>Kim: What is the biggest difference for you in your songwriting from when you first started writing to where you are now?</strong></p>
<p><em>DD: ''I was kinda skeptical about co-writing in my earlier days. I always thought the collaboration made an artist lose a part of their creative stamp. But the more I did it the more I realized that you aren't losing a percentage you are gaining a percentage. You are unlocking perspective when you hear someone's idea of what you wrote or sing something written. It always leads to something else. That's the beauty of it all. That's a real lesson I have learned over the years all my best stuff comes from being open to letting my ideas change and metamorphosis as they bounce off and through people.'' </em> </p>
<p><strong>Kim: Has your style changed and your approach to songwriting?</strong></p>
<p><em>DD: ''Ya, I think so. In the early days, it was very music-based. It was all based around guitar riffs or just a feeling you know. That was coming more from a band perspective. As I moved into Dan Davidson, the writer, it was more about the lyrics, I suppose. And more about clever ways to tie up choruses and interesting melodies that people haven't thought of before. I like thinking of different ways to spin things on their head. It was a way of looking at 30,000 feet at songwriting than looking at it from a ground-level thing which used to be my mentality.'' </em> </p>
<p><strong>Kim: Do you find it harder to write for the band than for country music?</strong></p>
<p><em>DD: ''No, I think country is harder. There are way more rules writing for country music. Everything needs to be more clever, more familiar, and more digestible than indie rock or folksy stuff. You can do whatever you want. You can write a formulaic song but there is a level of acceptance out there and angular songwriting. Even in rock, you can push the boundaries even more. It's not that I don't like writing country songs. It is that it's just more strategic when you write a country song. And you also know right away when you have written something good. You know this could be a hit kinda thing.'' </em></p>
<p>It is always a good time when I am chatting with Dan. This EP is a must to listen to. Dan has some exciting shows lined up for 2022 in France, the UK, and Australia. Davidson has some new music coming out in May. I can't wait and I have a feeling it is going to be his best yet. Stay tuned... </p>

<p>Recently Davidson has been writing for/with <strong>Hailey Benedict</strong>, <strong>Prairie States</strong>, <strong>Robert Adam</strong>, <strong>Mariya Stokes</strong>, <strong>Tim Hicks</strong>, <strong>W3apons</strong>, <strong>The Congregation</strong>, <strong>Chad Brownlee</strong>, <strong>The Standstills</strong>, and so many more.

Over his 35-year career he has released 62 singles, many of them hits. He’s also known as a great songwriter and if you’ve ever seen him perform live, maybe a comedian!? </p>

<p>Jamie lives in Kitchener Ontario, Canada, but was raised in Hanover Ontario where he pursued an adolescent dream of playing professional hockey in the NHL…with music as a background distraction. When he realized that his natural abilities for singing and playing guitar might make it easier to attract the attention of girls, he hung up his skates. Songwriting was a logical progression for a sensitive guy who wrote poetry and short stories throughout his high school years. </p>
<p>His interest in music was likely genetic since his mother sang and played piano and his father played guitar and mandolin. Jamie had piano lessons at age 5 and guitar lessons at age 8. By the time he was 10 years old, it was tradition for the Warrens to entertain after Saturday night euchre games (a Canadian card-game institution) in their smoke-filled basement. His earliest musical influences were whatever his parents listened to on the radio and the only thing his parent’s radio seemed to play, was country music. To this day he’s still a huge fan of Merle Haggard, Tammy Wynette, and Patsy Cline. Later in high school, his best friend’s older brother exposed him to celebrated vocal groups like The Eagles, America, Poco, and CSNY. Jamie has always had an appreciation for Texas singer-songwriters like Radney Foster, Lyle Lovett, and Rodney Crowell. </p>
<p>Jamie attended Conestoga College to study Broadcasting. His goal was to become the youngest general manager of a mid-market radio station, but he emerged instead with a desire to sing for a living. What changed his mind? Jamie won a regional talent show at London Ontario’s Western Fair which sent him to Memphis Tennessee for an international competition where he placed second. Jamie then stayed in Memphis, while he worked a one-year gig at Libertyland Theme Park as an entertainer. He still feels a connection to Memphis, the city that kicked off his career.</p>

<p><a contents="Mackenzie Leigh Meyer" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.mackenzieleighmeyer.com"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>Mackenzie Leigh Meyer</strong></span></a> is one of the most unique up-and-comer’s in country music today - armed with incredible vocal stylings that reflect her country, folk, and pop influences, captivating talent, authentic lyrics, and strong presence. Meyer’s debut E.P “<a contents="Dive Bar Diva" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/7vIpDPwFrupPH6AqxZNtY6"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Dive Bar Diva</strong></span></a>” garnered her a <strong>CMA Ontario</strong> nomination for “<strong>Roots Artist of the Year</strong>” at the 2019 Awards as well as a spot in the Top 7 of Canada’s famed Boots and Hearts Emerging Artist Showcase. Her latest single “Dial Tone”, an audacious tell-it-like-it-is anthem, has accumulated just shy of 300,000 streams on Spotify alone and is Mackenzie's second single to appear on both Spotify and Amazon editorial playlists. Whether it’s her velvety vocals, or unapologetic lyrics, when <a contents="Mackenzie Leigh Meyer" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.mackenzieleighmeyer.com"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>Mackenzie Leigh Meyer</strong></span></a> sings, people listen. </p>
<p>After spending 2019 touring the EP at festivals like <strong>Boots and Hearts</strong>, <strong>Havelock Jamboree</strong>, and <strong>Lucknow’s Music in the Fields</strong> to name a few, Meyer headed back into the studio to create new music. In October 2020 she debuted dreamy-love-ballad “<a contents="Before You" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/7vIpDPwFrupPH6AqxZNtY6"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Before You</strong></span></a>” produced by <a contents="Jeff Dalziel" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.jeffdalzielofficial.com/"><span style="color:#e67e22;"><strong>Jeff Dalziel</strong></span></a> (2019 CCMA Producer of the Year), who had invited Meyer to work with him after hearing the song at the CMA Ontario’s Demorama event in 2019. The song landed Meyer on her first two editorial playlists (Spotify - Live Country / Amazon - Breakthrough Country) and has garnered over 29,000 views on the accompanying music video. </p>

<p><a contents="ANNIKA" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.annikamusicofficial.com/"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>ANNIKA</strong></span></a> is a storyteller. She is an accomplished musician, vocalist, and songwriter known for her soulful vocals. Her voice transports audiences through a musical journey, filling spaces in our hearts and souls with a rich, nuanced emotion. </p>
<p>ANNIKA’s ability to capture audiences comes not just from her musical charisma, but from a refreshingly authentic and often comedic personality, which has powerfully engaged and entertained audiences around the world as part of the CCMA-nominated ‘Leaving Thomas’ duo, and now, as a highly anticipated solo artist. </p>
<p><a contents="ANNIKA" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.annikamusicofficial.com/"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>ANNIKA</strong></span></a> is taking a new musical direction since moving on from the country-pop duo by releasing her first full-length solo album, <strong>Stand Still</strong>. The project is a departure from her previous work and showcases a more mature, introspective <a contents="ANNIKA" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.annikamusicofficial.com/"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>ANNIKA</strong></span></a>, highlighting her talents as a musician, specifically as a piano player. The project will be broken down into two EPs and one deluxe album, delivering a total of 14 tracks. </p>
<p>“After reviewing all the songs I'd written over the past two years, it just became clear that I needed to record a full album based in the singer/songwriter genre. It's where my heart is right now and I feel it is what is most authentically me as an artist and as a woman.” Born and raised in Calgary, Alberta, and inspired by artists such as Elton John, Carole King, and Alicia Keys, ANNIKA’s new sound combines her love of country songwriting with heartfelt piano playing and melodic vocals. With her upcoming single, “<a contents="The Death Of Me" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/the-death-of-me-single/1603089670"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>The Death Of Me</strong></span></a>,” <a contents="ANNIKA" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.annikamusicofficial.com/"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>ANNIKA</strong></span></a> is taking a page out of Shania Twain’s book and kicking things up a notch by combining classic country with a twist of pop. </p>
<p>"I love this song because it shows a sassier side of me. It’s bluesy, playful, soulful, and energetic. Although the title is “<a contents="The Death Of Me" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/the-death-of-me-single/1603089670"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>The Death Of Me</strong></span></a>,” there’s a lot of life in the song!" The most powerful music comes from a songwriter who can take listeners on a stirring journey, and this is where <a contents="ANNIKA" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.annikamusicofficial.com/"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>ANNIKA</strong></span></a> delivers, revealing raw emotion in her lyrical content and vocal performances. She co-wrote all 14 songs on the project, most of them with her JUNO award-winning husband, <a contents="Spencer Cheyne" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.spencercheyne.com/"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Spencer Cheyne</strong></span></a> who also produced the project. This dynamic musical duo who share a love and passion for music also just welcomed their first child, Levi, in July 2021. </p>
<p>“It is very special that my producer and co-writer is also my husband and life partner. We have a unique connection because we share a life together, and the final result of the album is truly a combined effort. Not only did Spencer bring his production chops to the table, as he does with every project, but he brought his heart. He was able to really bring my vision to life as an artist.” </p>
<p>Taking a page out of Shania Twain’s book, <a contents="ANNIKA" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.annikamusicofficial.com/"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>ANNIKA</strong></span></a> is kicking things up a notch by combining classic country with a twist of pop. “<a contents="The Death Of Me" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/the-death-of-me-single/1603089670"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>The Death Of Me</strong></span></a>” is energetic, bluesy, and showcases a lighter, sassier side to <a contents="ANNIKA" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.annikamusicofficial.com/"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>ANNIKA</strong></span></a>. </p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>JonBatiste took home the trophy for Album Of The Year at the Grammys</strong></p>
<p>It's music's biggest night, and it's time to honor the best of the past year with the 64th Annual GRAMMY Awards! </p>
<p>Hosted once again this year by Trevor Noah, the 2022 GRAMMYs are ready to roll out the red carpet for a star-studded ceremony, celebrating nominees and performers like Olivia Rodrigo, Billie Eilish, Justin Bieber, Lil Nas X, Brandi Carlile, Silk Sonic, BTS and more. </p>
<p>"Whenever people ask me what performances I'm most excited to see, I realize that my answers are almost always lies, because I haven't yet seen the performances," Noah joked ahead of this year's GRAMMYs. "I have ideas of who I think I want to see in my head, but then I'm always surprised on the night. Last year was a perfect example of that... You don't know who's gonna bring something up, you don't know who's gonna do something different, you don't know who's gonna roll out a giant bed and twerk on it, so yeah, this year I'm excited to see anybody on stage. </p>
<p>"That's what makes the GRAMMYs amazing," he continued. "It's basically the year's biggest all-around concert: Everything --- country, hip-hop, jazz, whatever it is -- on one stage, which is what I love."</p>
<p>Jon Batiste leads the nominations this year with 11 nods, while Bieber, Doja Cat, and H.E.R. each earned eight, and Eilish and Rodrigo nabbed seven a piece. </p>

Debuting as the #1 <strong>Most Played Song on Sirius XM 171 CBC</strong> and sitting at over 10K streams and counting, the writing of this track is what inspired the remainder of the album, slated for release in the Spring. “As soon as we locked ‘<a contents="Good Things" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/good-things/1608765778"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Good Things</strong></span></a>’ I knew the direction I wanted to take this debut album,” explained Cooper. “It felt important to ground this record in what is true to me — working hard, taking your time to accomplish something, enjoying the process, and looking forward to what's next.” </p>

<p>In addition to today’s release, Cooper has been busy taking part in <strong>Project WILD</strong>, an intensive artist development program based out of Alberta.

Winners will be announced live on March 26 on <strong>WILD 953</strong>. </p>
<p>Having spent the past three years traveling between Nashville and Calgary, writing songs and performing over 350 shows across Canada, Cooper has taken the time to develop and discover his voice as an artist. At just 25-years old, the Alberta native has already garnered numerous local accolades. Cooper was named <strong>Artist of the Year</strong> at the <strong>Red Deer Entertainment Awards</strong> in 2018 and just this month landed <strong>2022 Country Music Alberta Awards</strong> nominations for <strong>Horizon Male Artist of The Year</strong>, <strong>Interactive Artist</strong>, and <strong>Community Spirit Award</strong>. </p>

<p><strong>ABOUT DEVIN COOPER </strong></p>
<p>As the son of a motorcycle shop owner and custom car builder, Devin Cooper’s childhood was filled with opportunities to be creative. Upon exchanging his toolkit for a guitar, Cooper found an unmistakable niche, reimagining the soul of Southern Rock and down-home country. The result is a genre-bending, driven young artist with a world of possibilities. Devin broke out onto the Canadian country music scene with his first single “<a contents="No Chasing You" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/4K4kyd2OMMEhkCW6nYtCP2"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>No Chasing You</strong></span></a>,” released in April 2018 to numerous local accolades. Shortly thereafter, he was nominated for <strong>Male Artist and Songwriter of the Year</strong> (<strong>YYC Music Awards</strong>) and was the winner of <strong>Artist of the Year</strong> (<strong>Red Deer Entertainment Awards)</strong>. </p>
<p>Since 2018, Cooper has performed alongside some of North America’s top talent including <strong>Aaron Pritchett</strong>, <strong>Gord Bamford</strong>, and <strong>Lou Gramm</strong> of <strong>Foreigner</strong>. Gearing up for his debut record release in spring 2022 (March 25), Cooper has released five singles to date. Most notably, "<a contents="Good Things" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/good-things/1608765778"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Good Things</strong></span></a>," the lead single and title track of the record, was released in March 2021. Just days before making his debut on the Nashville North Stage at the <strong>Calgary Stampede</strong> in July 2021, Cooper released his second single, "<a contents="Country Cliche" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/4K4kyd2OMMEhkCW6nYtCP2"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Country Cliche</strong></span></a>," to all streaming platforms. The newest single ''<a contents="Back Pocket" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/4K4kyd2OMMEhkCW6nYtCP2"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Back Pocket</strong></span></a>'' and his debut album, “<a contents="Good Things" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/good-things/1608765778"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Good Things</strong></span></a>,” are available everywhere now.</p>

<p>''<a contents="Chris Buck" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://chrisbuckband.com/"><span style="color:#e67e22;"><strong>Chris Buck</strong></span></a> is starting a new journey in his career as a solo artist releasing his first new music with his single '<a contents="Can't Beat The View" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/cant-beat-the-view-single/1610785788"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Can't Beat The View</strong></span></a>,'' says<strong> <a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#9900ff;">Kim Cyr</span></a></strong>, Editor in Chief for <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#9900ff;"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a>, radio host, and host for the International <a contents="Music's Journey Podcast" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.musicsjourney.com"><span style="color:#0000ff;"><strong>Music's Journey Podcast</strong></span></a>. His new single is a dedication or love letter to that special person in his life. Buck will be releasing a new music video for the new single. We can't wait for that. There is something really special about his writing right now. You can see the tremendous growth in his artistry and confidence as a great songwriter. </p>
<p>Buck's confidence as a songwriter has turned head's in the music industry with his recently signed publishing deal with <a contents="Anthem Entertainment" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.anthementertainment.com/"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Anthem Entertainment</strong></span></a>, in addition to becoming the first artist signed with <strong>Sakamoto Music</strong> (via <strong>Warner Music Canada</strong>). It is every songwriter's dream to be signed to a publishing deal. Buck is just getting started with the new music that is yet to come later this year with his new EP. There is a lot of exciting things happening for this young artist and we can't wait to see it all unfold. Buck has been working really hard on this new journey in his life and it is all paying off in spades. </p>
<p>''Buck is an artist that is going to be doing some great things,'' says Cyr. I can just feel it. I had the opportunity to catch up with Buck to talk about all the exciting news he has going on. Check out my full interview <a contents="HERE" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.musicsjourney.com/1084946/10334656-music-s-journey-podcast-interview-w-country-music-s-rising-artist-chris-buck-music-s-journey-spotlight-artist-of-the-week"><span style="color:#00ccff;"><strong>HERE</strong></span></a>.</p>
<p>Even from a young age, <a contents="Chris Buck" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://chrisbuckband.com/"><span style="color:#e67e22;"><strong>Chris Buck</strong></span></a> knew he was destined to make waves in the music biz. And the fact is, five years since breaking onto the scene with his self-titled, debut album, the singer/songwriter has continued to make a name for himself on the Canadian country stage, and beyond. </p>
<p>“I've always done country music, I've never done anything else,” he explains with a smile. “I sang Alan Jackson at my first karaoke contest. It’s a genre and a lifestyle that has always just spoken to me. It’s how I’ve always lived.” </p>
<p>Now, with brand-new music on its way, Chris says he’s ready for fans to really experience the kind of artist he’s always wanted to be — one that works hard and says it all on the line. </p>
<p>“I wanted to create an album where every song is something special,” he said. “This album took time, and I think people are really going to be able to see the development, not only as a singer, but a writer, as well. I want everyone to see that hard work does pay off, and this album is the culmination of that.” </p>
<p>One of the fastest rising Canadian country acts since the release of the Billboard Top 20 hit "<strong>That’s When You Know (feat Kira Isabella)</strong>," Chris saw the track hit hard with over 7 million streams, earning him a gold record and a <strong>CCMA Award nomination for Video of the Year</strong>. </p>
<p>Buck went on to release ALL IN in 2019, his second album, adding to his total five Top 40 singles and over 13 million streams. </p>
<p>According to Chris, it’s that slow gradual climb through the ranks which has continued to help him grow over the years, as well as help him understand who he is as an artist and performer — and he wouldn’t have it any other way. </p>
<p>Kicking off this new era is "<a contents="Can’t Beat The View" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/cant-beat-the-view-single/1610785788"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Can’t Beat The View</strong></span></a>," a track written with a very personal love story in mind. </p>
<p>“At that point, I had been dating my girlfriend for about a year and a half, and that’s where the inspiration came from, really,” Chris recalled. “It's basically about how you've seen all the beautiful sights in the world, but your girl beats all of them at the end of the day. I think that’s an idea a lot of people are going to relate to.” </p>
<p>In addition to penning and recording some of the strongest material of his career, Chris recently signed with <strong>Anthem Music Publishing</strong>, as well as the new record label <strong>Sakamoto Music</strong> distributed by <strong>Warner Music Canada</strong>. </p>
<p>“After almost two years of writing and working harder than ever, that’s a really rewarding thing to be able to share,” he said, adding he’s been lucky enough to have a great relationship with the entire Sakamoto Agency Team over the years. “I’m so excited for this next chapter in my career, and I can't wait for everyone to hear some of the new music I've recorded with award-winning producers Jeremy Stover/Julian King and Dan Swinimer.”</p>

<p>The 94th Academy Awards are here, and it's time to celebrate the best of the past year in film! </p>

It was an honor to interview one of the world's top one percent of songwriters '<a contents="Dean Dillon" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.deandillon.com/"><span style="color:#e67e22;"><strong>Dean Dillon</strong></span></a>' who has been at the top as one of the most sought-after songwriters for over thirty-plus years. </p>
<p>I could get lost in all the different stories that make up Dillon's extraordinary career. The opportunity to chat with Dillon has been on my bucket list for many years and I get to share it with you all here. I can't wait to have <a contents="Dean Dillon" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.deandillon.com/"><span style="color:#e67e22;"><strong>Dean Dillon</strong></span></a> back on the show to continue right where we left off with all the stories behind the lyrics and the musical journey that makes him one of the greatest songwriters that Nashville has ever known. </p>
<p><a contents="Dean Dillon" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.deandillon.com/"><span style="color:#e67e22;"><strong>Dean Dillon</strong></span></a> is incredibly humble and he is such a creative genius when it comes to his songwriting. Dillon is not afraid to talk about the struggles he went through trying to make it as a singer/songwriter and all the hard work it took him to reach that level of respect that he has among his peers in the music industry today. When you listen to Dean Dillon's songs is like a therapy session all rolled up into one. Dillon has a way of taking us all on a ride down memory lane reliving all the bad stuff that's happened in our lives, the good times at the same time, and somehow in the end your all good. He writes from that honest place of pain, heartache, and the greatest of highs. Dillon is a truly gifted storyteller when the pen hits the paper delivering the stories in his lyrics we can all relate to instantly. It's extraordinary. The lyrics are raw, real, and honest. It doesn't get any better than Dillon. That is why so many artists turn to Dillon to write the next hit single.</p>
<p>If you ever get the chance to hear <a contents="Dean Dillon" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.deandillon.com/"><span style="color:#e67e22;"><strong>Dean Dillon</strong></span></a> play an acoustic set, you are the very best night of music and stories. There is something special about the way he strips back the song and plays each one in his own way. You can hear a pin drop in the room because we are all glued to every cord and every word. It's just that good. He can deliver a song with the best artists in the world.</p>
<p><span style="color:#7f8c8d;"><em>What is your writing process?</em></span></p>
<p><strong>''I look for a great hook.'' ''It is a pretty safe bet that when I find the hook, whoever I am writing with, we will definitely hammer out something. I still love writing great songs. I really do. Chasing that to me is why I do what I do every day. It is trying to say something that changes the world, something that makes a difference and it matters. I have a lot of songs that are favorites for me that I play that were not big hits but my fans love them but to me, at the end of the day, when I know I have given my all and the song I wrote or whoever I was writing it with is the best that we can write it, then that is the best feeling in the world. Anything past that is just gravy.''</strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#95a5a6;"><em>Do you remember the first time you heard your song on the radio and where you were?</em></span></p>
<p><strong>''I remember being under Fesslers Lane Bridge, in Nashville Tennessee when my song came on the radio. I pulled over and tears came out of my eyes. I have never experienced anything quite like that. Pretty crazy."</strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#7f8c8d;"><em>When I heard you play ''The Tin Man'' as a tribute to Kenney Chesney live at the 2016 BMI Country Awards, it brought me to tears. Do you still like to perform live as much as writing songs?</em></span></p>
<p><strong>I still love to play. As compared to writing, I love them both. I love to still get out and tour. But songwriting to me, that's my life. I live, eat and sleep writing songs. Without the songwriting end of it, I don't have much of anything.</strong> </p>
<p>Dillon shared the stories of his upbringing and how he learned to play his guitar at a very young age and how it became a lifeline of survival to him. He grew to learn how to play the guitar and channel his feelings and the world around him in his songwriting. He has a gift that very few have in this life. He has a natural ability to take the pain and sorrow in life's experiences and the triumphs too, putting them in a song the way that only he can do that is just remarkable. His writing is simple in its lyrics but so profound in the meaning behind every word that says everything all at the same time. </p>
<p>There are so many stories Dillon shared of writing and working with the very best in the music industry. There are so many special stories and one of them is about meeting <strong>Tom Collins</strong>. He heard something special in <a contents="Dean Dillon" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.deandillon.com/"><span style="color:#e67e22;"><strong>Dean Dillon</strong></span></a> and the rest is history. You will hear how Dillon met country superstars <strong>George Strait</strong>, <strong>Toby Keith</strong>, <strong>Kenny Chesney</strong>, <strong>Hank Cochran</strong>, <strong>Scotty Emerick</strong>, and so many more. I know you will love listening to them all as much as I did.

New Single Sweet Dreams of Otherness and New Music Video Out NOW!!<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/139421/71da854f91c17b70c1b6f3ff68ae76cdbf6e6f07/original/single-art-5.jpg/!!/meta:eyJzcmNCdWNrZXQiOiJiemdsZmlsZXMifQ==/b:W10=.jpg" class="size_l justify_center border_" /><strong><span class="font_xl">Alexis On Fire</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><span class="font_xl">New Single</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><span class="font_xl">"Sweet Dreams of Otherness''</span></strong></p>
<p><strong>Alexisonfire</strong> announce <strong>Otherness</strong>, the first album in 13 years from the band Rolling Stone declared “put Canadian post-hardcore on the map”. <strong>Otherness</strong> is out June 24 via Dine Alone and features the explosive first single, “<strong>Sweet Dreams Of Otherness</strong>”. The video, directed by actor/director <strong>Jay Baruchel</strong> (Goon, This Is The End), premieres via the <strong>Alexisonfire</strong> Youtube out now. </p>
<p><strong>Alexisonfire</strong> produced the new album themselves, is the most cohesive and self-actualized record to date, and marks 20 years since the release of their self-titled debut album! </p>
<p>AOF released four hugely successful Platinum-certified albums, now with over 200 Million global streams. As Revolver Magazine noted: “It’s hard to overstate the influence Alexisonfire had through the mid-2000s.” Five guys playing aggressive rock grew to an arena headlining phenomenon while pushing and pulling between spirited guitar leads, melodic might, and emotional weight. </p>
<p>“As much as we love playing the old songs, we don’t want to be a nostalgia act. The only reason to come back is if we feel we still have something to say,” Pettit insists. “We spent so much time on the road thinking that if we stopped, people would lose interest. But when we went away, it only got bigger. We all carved new paths for ourselves, so coming back to Alexisonfire is a purely enjoyable creative venture. Something special happens when we get in a room together.”</p>
<p>A continuous thread through the fabric of <strong>Alexisonfire</strong> is the state of otherness. Otherness drew us all to spaces where a band like this could be formed. We attract the type of individuals that have all felt the sensation of being strange or unique. Perceived or otherwise, otherness has followed us through childhood, adolescence, and into our adult lives. It drives our tastes and proclivities. It bonds us with ourselves and others. And make no mistake, even at our most domestic and mundane moments, we are true outliers. - Otherness mission statement </p>

<p><strong>Arkells</strong> share brand new single “<strong>Reckoning</strong>” out today on Universal Music Canada, the country’s leading music company. Following the release of their most recent studio album, Blink Once, “Reckoning” emerges to kick off 2022, while teasing a new album, <strong>Blink Twice</strong>, due later this year. </p>
<p>As <strong>Arkells</strong> stayed busy making music during the last two years, they always knew they would come out of the pandemic with two distinct records. “The title of Blink Once was born from the song “<strong>Reckoning</strong>,” and lyrics “blink twice, there’s gonna be a reckoning” explains frontman Max Kerman. “If you listen to the outro track of Blink Once - “<strong>Last Night I Heard Em’ Sing</strong>” - we hint that there’s more coming. Kind of like a post-credits scene in a movie. “<strong>Reckoning</strong>” is the beginning of what’s next.” </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Arkells - Reckoning (Official Music Video)</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><iframe class="justify_inline" data-video-type="youtube" data-video-id="SLhY7kIoBo4" data-video-thumb-url="https://img.youtube.com/vi/SLhY7kIoBo4/mqdefault.jpg" type="text/html" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/SLhY7kIoBo4?rel=0&wmode=transparent&enablejsapi=1" frameborder="0" height="180" width="320" allowfullscreen="true"></iframe></strong></p>
<p>At first listen, “Reckoning” is decidedly an “eat the rich” song. “The song is about privileged people who bury their heads in the sand. It’s also about the admiration for those who lead by example, and want justice for people beyond their own kin. We wanted the song to be big and cinematic - something that felt like walking through the streets at night time. We were inspired by everything from Justice to Run The Jewels. At this point in our career as musicians, we only wanna go where inspo takes us.” </p>
<p>Earlier this week, it was announced that <strong>Arkells</strong> will be performing at the <strong>2022 JUNO Awards</strong>, as they pick up nominations for <strong>Group of the Year and Rock Album of the Year</strong> categories. </p>
<p><strong>Arkells</strong> had two major headline grabbing live events in 2021, pivoting from their three once-in-a-return-from-pandemic history making nights at Toronto’s Iconic Budweiser Stage, to headlining the 108th Grey Cup Halftime show in their hometown of Hamilton, ON. Performing a medley of their top hits to over 26,000 people - an all-time Tim Hortons Field attendance record - they were joined by special guests The Lumineers & K.Flay. Watch the performance here. </p>
<p>Their 6th studio album, <strong>Blink Once</strong>, a bi-coastal project which was recorded in LA and completed in Toronto, includes hit single, “<strong>You Can Get It</strong>” featuring <strong>K.Flay</strong>, their fifth #1 at the format. “<strong>You Can Get It</strong>” was prominently featured in the E3 launch of the <strong>Forza Horizon 5</strong> video game trailer last summer. <strong>Blink Once</strong> also includes #1 track “<strong>Years In The Making</strong>,” and “<strong>All Roads</strong>,” which serves as the soundtrack to <strong>#TogetherAgain</strong>, a national vaccine awareness PSA to combat vaccine hesitancy. </p>
<p>Stay tuned for much more coming from <strong>Arkells</strong> this year.</p>

<p>About <strong>Arkells</strong>: <br>Hailed by The Globe and Mail as “the right kind of band for this decade,” <strong>Arkells</strong> are widely considered one of the most passionate, exuberant and in-demand live bands working today. As radio mainstays, sports-sync shoe-ins and curious students of culture, Arkells have remained ever present – building awareness and personal community experiences around their live shows and new music at every turn. The most emblematic example of this being The Rally, Arkells' hometown concert that was hailed as one of the biggest headline shows in the country, and is slated to return in 2022. <strong>Arkells</strong> continue to unleash new music and tour dates as the band and their fans return to live in-person festivities. Their hotly anticipated new album <strong>BLINK ONCE</strong> is out now, with the recently teased <strong>BLINK TWICE</strong> companion album due later this year.</p>

<p>The band appears as themselves in the feature film, <strong>Moments in Spacetime</strong> (Oct 2020), performing their single, “<a contents="My Bedroom" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/4gAwdjIMja1At8i7tHNpex"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>My Bedroom</strong></span></a>” (2018). “We reconnected with our high school media arts teacher at a local TEDx event where we were both speaking. He had returned from film school in Vancouver and his recent project, Sweet Oil (2017), was featured at the Phoenix Film Festival and the Holly Shorts Film Festival (Hollywood). He had also done some work on episodes of the AMC series, Hell on Wheels,” recalls Shalka. “He had a new project shooting in Cold Lake, Alberta, and asked if he could write us into the movie performing as ourselves. We even have a few lines of dialogue.” The film stars John Rhys-Davies (Indiana Jones, James Bond, Lord of the Rings), Patty Srisuwan (Misfortune), and Sam Gittins (EastEnders, Call The Midwife, Await Further Instructions). </p>

<p>What an exciting year 2021 has been for acclaimed, Calgary-based country artist <a contents="ANNIKA" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.annikamusicofficial.com/"><span style="color:#99ccff;"><strong>ANNIKA</strong></span></a> both professionally and personally. She has been engaging and entertaining audiences around the world since 2014 as the lead singer of the <strong>CCMA-nominated</strong> country-pop duo <strong>Leaving Thomas</strong>. <a contents="ANNIKA" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.annikamusicofficial.com/"><span style="color:#99ccff;"><strong>ANNIKA</strong></span></a> has been taking a new musical direction as a solo artist and has already seen incredible success with hit singles released earlier this year.</p>
<p><a contents="ANNIKA" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.annikamusicofficial.com/"><span style="color:#99ccff;"><strong>ANNIKA</strong></span></a> has been named the<strong> iHeart Radio Future Star</strong> (July / August 2021). There is so much to celebrate this year including the release of her new single “<a contents="Encore" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://bfan.link/LLLY"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Encore</strong></span></a>” released on September 17, a duet with chart-topping, <strong>Platinum-selling, JUNO, and CCMA award-winning</strong> Canadian country star <a contents="Brett Kissel" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.brettkissel.com/"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>Brett Kissel</strong></span></a>. The extraordinary tune showcases ANNIKA’s and Kissel’s breathtaking harmonies in this black and white production, creating the ideal mix of simple melodies and lyrics that make it timeless. I love the striped back instrumental in the tune allowing the listener to feel every emotionally driven note showcasing the powerhouse vocals of both <a contents="ANNIKA" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.annikamusicofficial.com/"><span style="color:#99ccff;"><strong>ANNIKA</strong></span></a> and <strong><a contents="Brett Kisse" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.brettkissel.com/"><span style="color:#f39c12;">Brett Kisse</span></a>l</strong>. This isn't the normal type of song for Brett and I can honestly say that it brought out the range and depth to his voice that I haven't heard before. I love everything about this tune.</p>
<p>In addition to releasing “<a contents="Encore" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://bfan.link/LLLY"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Encore</strong></span></a>,” <a contents="ANNIKA" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.annikamusicofficial.com/"><span style="color:#99ccff;"><strong>ANNIKA</strong></span></a>, released her single “<a contents="Love Looks Like You" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://bfan.link/LLLY"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Love Looks Like You</strong></span></a>” as a “twingle” on the same date, giving fans a double dose of new music. This song is a romantic ballad that showcases a softer side of ANNIKA’s voice and highlights heartfelt lyrics in a timeless love song. </p>
<p>Congratulations to you and your husband, <strong>Spencer Cheyne</strong>, on becoming a new mom and dad to Levi on July 12.</p>
<p><a contents="ANNIKA" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.annikamusicofficial.com/"><span style="color:#99ccff;"><strong>ANNIKA</strong></span></a> has been busy working on her writing for some new music coming out in early 2022. She also celebrated the new single '<strong>I'm In It</strong>' that she co-wrote with pop sensation '<strong>Kaiya Gamble</strong>'. </p>

<p>“I think working with these guys and honestly meeting them, has been one of the highlights of my career,” Hoot tells <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a>. “‘Cause they’re some of the nicest guys that you could ever meet, and some of the most professional — I don’t understand how they have the ears for music that they do, because they’re absolutely professionals. Great guys, and incredible people.”</p>
<p>''An emotional ballad, the 4-and-a-half minute-long song finds the trio and Hoot singing about what makes the holiday season so special,'' says Cyr. ''It gives me goosebumps every time I hear it. This is truly a special very song that is timeless. If this one doesn't pull on your heartstrings to remember what the true meaning of the holiday season is, I don't know what will. We have all lost so much this past year and a half and this season we have some form of normalcy with our loved ones. It makes you want to hold on tight to everyone you love just that little bit more.''</p>
<p>"I am so proud of this one. I have always wanted to write a Christmas song, and seeing it finally come to pass is something so special to me," Hoot, tells <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a>. </p>
<p>"Christmas is my favorite time of year, for so many reasons. I love the magic that fills the crisp winter air. The smell of hot chocolate and cinnamon rolls, celebrating the birth of Jesus, having the family all home and the memories we get to make together," he adds. "... I love the tradition of it all, and I feel that this song encompasses so many of the important things of what makes Christmas, Christmas."</p>

<p><em>Said Kaiya, “my parents are both frontline healthcare workers, so during the heat of the pandemic I had to watch them walk out the door each day to face the dangers ahead. It was quite stressful for me and my sister, and I can only imagine how it was for them! That’s when it hit me. I asked myself: How can I help, the best way I know how? That’s how KAIYA LIVE was created. This show has been almost a year in the making, and you wouldn’t believe how much work, joy, sweat, tears, laughter, and love have gone into this concert. I cannot wait for everyone to see it, and to raise awareness for three amazing organizations along the way - Wickfest, A Sound Life, and CINIM.”</em></p>

<p>''With their debut album <a contents="Thirsty From The Drought" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/au/artist/taming-sari/1374260168"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Thirsty From The Drought</strong></span></a> to their killer new single '<a contents="Crazy" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/au/artist/taming-sari/1374260168"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Crazy</strong></span></a>', this could be a mission complete for them with the catchy openings in every track they release. The frontman <strong><a contents="Warren Meredith" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.tamingsariband.com/"><span style="color:#f1c40f;">Warren Meredith</span></a> </strong>has that grit, and range of bringing the tones of Steven Tyler and bands like Thin Lizzy, and the with shredding guitar riffs, <a contents="Taming Sari" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.tamingsariband.com/"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>Taming Sari</strong></span></a> has found their sound.

<p> After making numerous media appearances and safely playing for socially distanced crowds, <a contents="Taming Sari" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.tamingsariband.com/"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>Taming Sari</strong></span></a> is ready to hit the ground running. Live music is making a triumphant return opening up a little more, there is no doubt that these talented performers will grace stages with the same intensity found in their recordings.</p>
<p>Taming Sari’s signature splashy guitar work and thunderous drums guide the listener through a supercharged anthem to inspire hope in the post-pandemic. Bringing us back to when life seemed more straightforward, “<a contents="Crazy" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/artist/taming-sari/1374260168"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Crazy</strong></span></a>” is about the inherent connection we all feel towards one another, and how surreal it can feel to lose touch with our need to just enjoy life. </p>
<p>One listen to “<a contents="Crazy" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/artist/taming-sari/1374260168"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Crazy</strong></span></a>” tells you everything you need to know about Taming Sari’s musical influences, and Toronto’s iconic <strong>Polson Pier</strong> set the backdrop for the band to channel the rock gods on a beautiful summer day and lay down a couple of blazing new tracks. </p>
<p>The sun-kissed harbourfront wasn’t the only inspiration leading into the recording studio: it would be the first time they would record with a new member, accomplished lead guitarist <a contents="Joe Fraser" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.tamingsariband.com/"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>Joe Fraser</strong></span></a>, to create the perfect balance of grit and melody while paying homage to past rock n’ roll legends. </p>

<p>Rising artist <a contents="Kira Lynn" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://kiralynn.ca/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Kira Lynn</strong></span></a> isn’t afraid to step outside the box and deliver the raw emotional lyrics that tell the stories of real life that fans can relate to the most. </p>
<p>This Canadian singer-songwriter from Edmonton, Alberta grew up on the stage dancing competitively, studying musical theatre, vocal training, piano, guitar, and even had the opportunity to have studied the Meisner technique in acting in Santa Monica, CA. </p>
<p><a contents="Kira Lynn" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://kiralynn.ca/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Kira Lynn</strong></span></a> completed her University studies in Canada and then moved to Nashville to pursue her passion after being referred by Irving Azoff’s office which has provided incredible opportunities for her in the music business. Lynn’s singles “<a contents="I Won’t Let You Go" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/7oC3aROFOlCwXmqj3baw6O?si=QplqCOV8SSOKIXoImQ41ag&dl_branch=1&nd=1"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>I Won’t Let You Go</strong></span></a>,” written with the late great songwriter, Ralph Murphy, and “<a contents="Falling For You" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/7oC3aROFOlCwXmqj3baw6O?si=QplqCOV8SSOKIXoImQ41ag&dl_branch=1&nd=1"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Falling For You</strong></span></a>,” caught fire at country radio while heralding a vibrant and fast-rising performer on the contemporary scene. “<a contents="Hey Love" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/7oC3aROFOlCwXmqj3baw6O?si=QplqCOV8SSOKIXoImQ41ag&dl_branch=1&nd=1"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Hey Love</strong></span></a>” was released shortly after which was described as a hit by music director at CISN Country in her hometown. </p>
<p>After a successful release of her last single, “<a contents="Colorado" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/7oC3aROFOlCwXmqj3baw6O?si=QplqCOV8SSOKIXoImQ41ag&dl_branch=1&nd=1"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Colorado</strong></span></a>,” <a contents="Kira Lynn" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://kiralynn.ca/"><span style="color:#2980b9;"><strong>Kira Lynn</strong></span></a> is releasing her newest single “<a contents="Love You No More" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/kira-lynn/473027921"><span style="color:#ff3300;"><strong>Love You No More</strong></span></a>” both digitally and to Country Radio in Canada on November 12th. Kira wrote her song “<a contents="Love You No More" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/kira-lynn/473027921"><span style="color:#ff3300;"><strong>Love You No More</strong></span></a>” about that moment when you realize the person you thought you loved, isn’t treating you the way you deserve. It’s that life-changing decision to accept your worth and close the door. </p>
<p>“At the end of the day, I really hope people get a chance to hear these songs and relate to them.” <a contents="Kira Lynn" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://kiralynn.ca/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Kira Lynn</strong></span></a> says “I am not afraid to be vulnerable with my writing and I hope that touches people.”</p>
<p>''Rising artist <a contents="Kira Lynn" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://kiralynn.ca/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Kira Lynn</strong></span></a> stands out in the enormous Canadian talent pool by staying true to herself writing exactly what she feels and her vocal capability that has such power yet delivered with brilliance,'' says <a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>Kim Cyr</strong></span></a>, Editor in Chief for <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a>, host of the International <a contents="Music's Journey Podcast" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.musicsjourney.com"><span style="color:#0000ff;"><strong>Music's Journey Podcast</strong></span></a>, and radio host/on-air personality on <a contents="91.3 FM" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://bluewaterradio.ca/"><span style="color:#2980b9;"><strong>91.3 FM</strong></span></a>. Every time, Kira has shown the world that she isn’t afraid to step outside the box to follow her dreams. Her artistry and mixing of catchy pop melodies with elements of country and soul make a unique and powerful sound all her own. I can't wait till Kira lets lose on her vocals just once for me because I just want to hear her power under all those gorgeous vocal deliveries we have heard so far. This is purely for my selfish want and needs to hear her sore. Kira is a very talented vocalist and she lets the lyrics breathe holding back on what we all know she can do in her range. That is a true artist.'' </p>

In 2021, Cory unleashed a reimagined, high-energy, rock-heavy single “<a contents="Blame It on the Double" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/artist/cory-marks/598004110"><span style="color:#ff3300;"><strong>Blame It on the Double</strong></span></a>,” a collaboration with <a contents="Tyler Connolly" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.instagram.com/tylerconnollytheory/?hl=en"><span style="color:#cc9966;"><strong>Tyler Connolly</strong></span></a> of <a contents="Theory of a Deadman" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.instagram.com/tylerconnollytheory/?hl=en"><span style="color:#cc9966;"><strong>Theory of a Deadman</strong></span></a> and <a contents="Jason Hook" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.instagram.com/jasonhook/?hl=en"><span style="color:#cc6600;"><strong>Jason Hook</strong></span></a>. Mixing the storytelling tradition of country music and the loud, unapologetic sounds of heavy rock, Cory’s music blasts with an aggressive, soulful edge. With new music in the works and the horror-thriller film <strong>THE RETALIATORS</strong> in which he had an onscreen cameo and a song featured on the original soundtrack, Cory has just begun to make his mark(s) on the music industry.</p>

<p><strong>About David Boyd Janes</strong></p>
<p>Sometimes, clichés prove weirdly true. Take that one about dark clouds having silver linings. Turns out, that stuff can happen for real. Just ask David Boyd Janes. </p>
<p>Were it not for a brutal breakup in 2017, which tore up the floorboards of his life, the fast-rising country music singer/songwriter might still be living the contemporary urban dream, successfully selling heating and air conditioning units and living in a nice condo with a girlfriend beside him and a bunch of suits hanging in his closet. </p>
<p>Yet that breakup — precipitated in part by Janes’ rekindled romance with music via, of all things, singing karaoke in bars — yanked the Toronto-based performer out of his comfort zone and into a suddenly dreary world where the only thing worth doing was making music. </p>
<p>All of which sounds like something you might hear in a country song. Enter Janes’ dazzling debut, Drove Me Country, so named for his experience (as in, she drove him out of the condo and into country music) and delivered in a distinctive voice alternately conjuring honey and sandpaper. </p>
<p>Yet despite Janes’ back story, the album’s eight original compositions are decidedly not sad-sack ballads steeped in gloom and swimming in whisky. Rather, Drove Me Country is an affirmation of what can happen when somebody who has been kicked to the curb gets up, dusts himself off, says… well… screw it. Then follows his dream. </p>
<p>“My main objective as an artist is to inspire people to follow their own dreams,” Janes says. “Four years ago, I was a broken man sitting alone in my condo thinking, ‘Why did this happen to me?’ Now I have this mindset where I can push past things and live my life. Turning my thoughts into reality is not schtick. It’s how I live my life now.” </p>
<p>Evidence of that transformation is scribbled all over the vivid and diverse Drove Me Country, often in surprising ways. Take lead single “Behind Bars,” a gargantuan roadhouse corker propelled by wailing pedal steel, B3 organ, and Janes’ breathtakingly candid (and frankly amusing) lyrics about the aftermath of his split as surveyed from a barstool. </p>
<p>At the other end of the spectrum but no less compelling is the super-melodic, soaring, and anthemic ballad “Fools Gold,” in which our man takes stock of what really matters in this life as an ace group of players garland the background with gleaming steel and guitars. </p>
<p>“The song ‘Fools Gold’ is who I am,” Janes says, adding it’s one of his favourites on the album. “If you want to get to know me in three minutes, listen to that song. As for ‘Behind Bars,’ I’m not a big drinker and this song isn’t about blowing off steam in a bar; it’s about playing in bars, getting back into music and brushing off the bad news. Sometimes you just have to move on.” </p>
<p>He continues: “I went through a lot when that girl up and left. I don’t mean to sound overly dramatic, but it took me four years to rebuild my confidence. I finally realized I couldn’t hold myself down any longer.” </p>
<p>Ironically, had it not been for the abovementioned girlfriend, Janes might still be wearing neckties and slinging HVACs. Though Janes “had been doing music his whole life” and grew up immersed in country music courtesy his mom and dad — smalltown Newfoundland transplants to Toronto — he started out playing rock and roll. When that experience soured, “I turned my back on music for, like 10 years. </p>
<p>“Years later, my girlfriend and I, just for kicks, went to a karaoke bar. I sang a few songs and the reaction I got was amazing. People asked if I was in a band. This happened a bunch of times, and soon enough I was entering karaoke competitions. This was around 2016. </p>
<p>“One night, I said to my girlfriend, ‘I think I should get back into music.’ She looked at me and said, ‘That is not what I signed up for.’ I agreed it sounded ludicrous, but I sensed it was what I should be doing. I just wasn’t happy as this suit-and-tie guy. And for the record, we had a happy relationship; we just lost the spark. She made a plan to move out and left.” </p>
<p>If proof were needed that Janes’ instincts were spot-on, it came two years later in 2019 when, in short order, he won the Next Country Music Star contest hosted by the Havelock Country Jamboree, was named Artist of the Year at the Mississauga Music Awards, won the Country Wild Music Festival in Cobourg, earning a trip to Nashville to record with Grammy-winning producer Jamie Tate and — the crowning achievement — won the Boots & Hearts Emerging Artist Showcase. </p>
<p>In the course of all that, Janes met renowned producer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Jeff Dalziel (see Washboard Union, Jim Cuddy, Thornley) at the CMA Ontario Awards in London; the two hit it off. “I had no idea how decorated he was,” Janes recalls. “Fast-forward eight months, and I sent him some songs. He ended up producing ‘On Tonight’ and that started the relationship. Next, we cut ‘Couldn’t Hurt’ (from 2020 and included on the new album) and that song racked up over three million streams.” </p>
<p>When time came to produce Drove Me Country, Dalziel was the obvious choice as key collaborator. The pair worked alongside a crack team of musicians at Dalziel’s home recording studio in Oshawa, ON. “Everyone on this album is just incredible, and the experience with Jeff was great. </p>
<p>“This record is a perfect reflection of where I am in my life and I’m just so excited to release it,” Janes says. “And I will know it’s a success when someone says they decided to take a swing at something they had been sitting on the fence about, and it brought them to a better place in their life. </p>
<p>“I want everyone to know that nothing is impossible. If some random dude who sold furnaces for a living can chase his dream,” he laughs, “anyone can. That to me is the most important message.”</p>

<p>There’s a saying when life hands you lemons, make lemonade. Ottawa-born brothers, <a contents="Cory" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.lemoncashmusic.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Cory</strong></span></a> and <a contents="Jeff Papineau" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.lemoncashmusic.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Jeff Papineau</strong></span></a> live by this saying. So much so, that they named their band <a contents="Lemon Cash" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.lemoncashmusic.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Lemon Cash</strong></span></a>. The band’s name was inspired by the brother's childhood when they ran a neighborhood lemonade stand. The two brothers would come home each day celebrating their hard-earned lemon cash. </p>
<p>To this day they share similar interests in music and continue to write and record music together. They grew up in a very musical family along with a little sister, Taylor, who would often sing and help write songs in their music room at home. When the 3 siblings were very young, they wrote and recorded a jingle for their answering machine on their home phone line: We can’t take your phone call, we’re busy through and through, but leave your name and number and we’ll get right back to you in acapella with three-piece harmonies. </p>
<p><a contents="Lemon Cash" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.lemoncashmusic.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Lemon Cash</strong></span></a> started out as a cover band, forming an alternative rock band with some local friends from their hometown of Ottawa, Ontario. The band had success playing lots of gigs, receiving radio traction, and formed quite a substantial following for only a couple of years of playing together. </p>
<p>After 3 years of playing as a five-piece band, the members of <a contents="Lemon Cash" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.lemoncashmusic.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Lemon Cash</strong></span></a> decided to part on good terms and ended their days as a rock band. Looking to evolve their music, Cory and Jeff found their sweet spot and transitioned into the country world where they would come to realize this is where their tastes and personalities fit best. The inspiration to switch to the country genre came from their parents: Jeff Sr. and Sandra. They introduced Jeff and Cory to country music at a very young age.</p>
<p>Listening to a wide range of artists such as Patsy Cline, George Jones, George Strait, Dolly Parton, Tim McGraw, and Garth Brooks. These country legends became the inspiration for the brothers beginning to write and perform their own songs with their signature blend of harmonies and a tinge of their love of rock music thrown into the lemonade of <a contents="Lemon Cash" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.lemoncashmusic.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Lemon Cash</strong></span></a>. </p>
<p>“<a contents="Wildside" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/artist/lemon-cash/673365036"><span style="color:#ff3366;"><strong>Wildside</strong></span></a>” is the new single. Written by<strong> <a contents="Jeff" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.lemoncashmusic.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;">Jeff</span></a></strong> and <a contents="Cory Papineau" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.lemoncashmusic.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Cory Papineau</strong></span></a>, it is an homage to your inner child. Every so often we just need to forget about the world’s problems, and grab your “Bonnie or Clyde”, step out of your comfort zone, and just let go. <a contents="Lemon Cash" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.lemoncashmusic.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Lemon Cash</strong></span></a> is busy writing, writing, performing at shows (drive-in’s these days), and getting ready to head into the studio with <a contents="Dan Swinimer " data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.instagram.com/danswinimer/?hl=en"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Dan Swinimer</strong> </span></a>(JoJo Mason, Sacha, Tyler Joe Miller, Madelaine Merlot ) to continue their artist development and turn those lemons into sweet lemonade.</p>

<p>Canadian pop-country artist <a contents="Alex&nbsp;Hughes" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.alexhughes.com/"><span style="color:#27ae60;"><strong>Alex Hughes</strong></span></a> is back with her beautiful new music video for “<a contents="After 31" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/album/after-31-single/1590588529"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>After 31</strong></span></a>”, which you can watch below.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>After 31- Official Music Video- Alex Hughes</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><iframe class="justify_inline" data-video-type="youtube" data-video-id="l3ryv0a6Qcg" data-video-thumb-url="https://img.youtube.com/vi/l3ryv0a6Qcg/mqdefault.jpg" type="text/html" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/l3ryv0a6Qcg?rel=0&wmode=transparent&enablejsapi=1" frameborder="0" height="180" width="320" allowfullscreen="true"></iframe></p>
<p>Shot by<strong> Aaron Reimer</strong> in Fish Creek Provincial Park, mere steps from where Hughes grew up, the “<a contents="After 31" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/album/after-31-single/1590588529"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>After 31</strong></span></a>” video is simple and reflective. With the intention of connecting with the viewer, Hughes locks eyes with the camera, singing lyrics that are both raw and true to her story while still relatable to anyone at any stage of life. Shots of Hughes sitting in solitude and reminiscing over old photos from throughout her life and journey as a musician are meant to be a visual representation of the overall sentiment of this coming of age and contemplative song. </p>
<p>“It meant a lot to me to sing these lyrics and share the story of “<a contents="After 31" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/album/after-31-single/1590588529"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>After 31</strong></span></a>”. We kept the imagery simple to let the lyrics and message of the song do the talking. It was such a pleasure to work with videographer Aaron Reimer who came up with the visual concept using a backdrop to add interest to an otherwise modest scene of contemplation,” said Hughes.</p>
<p>Fueled by an equal love for Shania Twain and Snoop Dogg, <a contents="Alex Huges" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.alexhughes.com/"><span style="color:#27ae60;"><strong>Alex Hughes</strong></span></a> take on pop-country has a bit more soul and grit than her petite 5’2” frame might suggest. With a voice described as a combination of Linda Ronstadt and LeAnn Rimes, Alex has practically been singing since before she could talk. Her distinct sound weaves R&B runs into classic country melodies with pop-driven beats that leave audiences in awe. With multiple sold-out shows in 2021, a Country Music Alberta “<strong>Horizon Female Artist of the Year</strong>” nomination, and a selection as a <strong>Project WILD</strong> - Country Artist Development Program Top 12 Finalist, Alex is making her presence undeniable in Canadian Country Music. </p>
<p>After the release of her current project’s debut single, “<a contents="Strong As You" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6iL96eq4EA2eoFI9CzyJgI"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Strong As You</strong></span></a>”, in 2019, Alex has been making waves in the Alberta music scene; collaborating with artists within her Country music community and beyond. Notable collaborations include a feature vocal performance on Canadian Pop artist, Fayence Dream’s album, “<strong>Hang up on Me</strong>” and <strong>The Blue Jay Sessions</strong> group collaborative song, “<strong>Sitting on Top of The World</strong>”. Alex is also highly commended as a songwriter with credits on Leaving Thomas’ acclaimed album, “Nothing Comes for Free” as a writer on the song, “<strong>Lie to Me</strong>”, as well as Ryan Lindsay’s CCMA nominated album, “<strong>The Ride</strong>” as a writer on fan favourite, “<strong>Darlin’ You’re Classic</strong>”. </p>
<p>When some might’ve been discouraged by the cancellation of shows in 2020, Alex saw an opportunity to develop and continue to hone her craft. She kept herself busy, co-writing over 50 songs with writers from Calgary, Nashville, Chicago, and even the UK. She released her follow-up single, “<a contents="Gentleman" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6iL96eq4EA2eoFI9CzyJgI"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Gentleman</strong></span></a>”, a female-empowering song with nods to 90’s girl-power country, and grew her fan base by almost double, utilizing social media and participating in multiple live streams and virtual appearances. Alex is a driven learner and used the pandemic as a chance to study vocal production, a skill she used to self-record all the vocals for her next single, “<a contents="After 31" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/album/after-31-single/1590588529"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>After 31</strong></span></a>”, released in November of 2021. Produced by Nashville-based producer, <a contents="Shannon McArthur" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.shannonmcarthur.com/ar-work"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Shannon McArthur</strong></span></a>, this special song are a true coming-of-age moment and the most honest and raw of Alex’s releases to date. After finding what she believes to be her truly authentic and distinctive sound, Alex is making the music she was born to give the world. </p>
<p>With plans to record and release her debut full-length album in 2022 and tour it across Canada, Alex has never been clearer in her vision and is focused and driven to see it through. With a desire to honor the classic country songs she loved to sing in her youth and inspired by the bass-heavy songs she’d playback when she learned to drive, Alex promises to deliver something that is as sincere and fun as she is. This is Country music for the modern ear that still loves to play their grandparent’s records.</p>

<p>The talented Vancouver-raised songstress <a contents="Molly Annelle" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://mollyannelle.com/"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>Molly Annelle</strong></span></a>, released her new single “<a contents="Dior" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/molly-annelle/1339271789"><span style="color:#ffff99;"><strong>Dior</strong></span></a>” on November 12 via <a contents="604 Records" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.604records.com/"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>604 Records</strong></span></a>. </p>
<p>At 18 years old, <a contents="Molly Annelle" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://mollyannelle.com/"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>Molly Annelle</strong></span></a> relocated to Toronto and is armed with a mesmerizing voice that is well beyond her years and impossible to ignore. Thanks to a distinctive flair for bending language to fit the melody, the young musician is ready to take the world by storm — combining the essence of R&B jams, Bossa Nova bops, and Yé Yé girl pop that results in a tone all her own. </p>
<p>“This song was the product of one of the most fun writing sessions I've ever had. Parker Bossley, Louise Burns, and I were just goofing around, we always have such a great time when we're together. We wanted to write something that was lyrically and melodically sweet. This song dives into our wildest fantasies of being rich and lavish, backed by an instrumental heavily inspired by the glittery pop and R&B hits of the early 2000s,” said Molly of the track. </p>
<p>Molly’s journey is one that began at the tender age of five when the Vancouver-based songstress penned her very first song — the uncannily entitled Obscure Bird. Four years later, at just nine years old, she was named Young Composer of the Year, writing four-part harmonies for the Vancouver Chamber Choir. Encouraged by family and teachers alike, the young musician found her voice in the kind of honest lyricism and devoted storytelling which has continued to set her apart. </p>
<p>It was also the kind of drive and ambition that happened to catch the attention of<a contents=" 604 Records" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.604records.com/"><span style="color:#f39c12;"> <strong>604 Records</strong></span></a>’ <a contents="Jonathan Simkin" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.604records.com/"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>Jonathan Simkin</strong></span></a>, resulting in Molly’s label debut, <strong><a contents="Winter Waves" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/3mgxzlrTPRjDZ5qn93i5vz"><span style="color:#2ecc71;">Winter Waves</span></a>,</strong> a Christmas anthem that garnered almost 345,000 streams on Spotify alone. </p>

<p>Katy spent time in Canada, which she considers her second home, writing and recording a host of songs including her latest single.

<p>TORONTO, ON – <strong>JUNO award-winning R&B singer-songwriter</strong> <a contents="Sean Jones" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.seanjonesmusic.com/"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>Sean Jones</strong></span></a> is back with a brand-new album titled <a contents="Weekend Lover" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/sean-jones/438745452"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Weekend Lover</strong></span></a>. The album features a set of songs that are reminiscent of 90’s R&B and will be released November 5 via all streaming platforms. </p>
<p>Produced by <strong>Murray Daigle </strong>(Keshia Chante, Serena Ryder, BRDGS), the album has something for everyone with its mix of fast and mid-tempo tracks and just the right amount of awesome slow jams added to the mix. <a contents="Love Will" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/album/0ekCxxh06VT7nax0XGdYLB?si=UnY14OnhShiFGas0dhUJaw&nd=1"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Love Will</strong></span></a>, a bass-heavy mixture of classic house and 90’s R&B, written by Jones, Daigle, and Adrian X, was the first release from the album and speaks to the theme of love in a real and honest way. </p>
<p><em>“I am so excited about this record. This album is a coming home of sorts for me. While I have truly enjoyed creating and performing music in multiple genres over the years, 90's R&B has always been my first love. This record is just an extension of my heart. There is no filler. Every song is special and unique in its own way. And the tunes will undoubtedly take you back in time. Murray and I made sure to add in just enough modern-day elements to keep this fresh and in line with the sound of music today. I am super proud of this body of work. If you are a lover of 90's R&B I can most certainly guarantee that you will not be disappointed.” </em></p>
<p>Opening with the album's title track, listeners are immediately transported to a nostalgic scene of young lust and seduction. “<a contents="Weekend Lover" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/album/0ekCxxh06VT7nax0XGdYLB?si=UnY14OnhShiFGas0dhUJaw&nd=1"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Weekend Lover</strong></span></a>” is a throwback anthem that sets the album’s tone, bringing it back to Sean’s roller-skating days. “<a contents="Drink" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/album/0ekCxxh06VT7nax0XGdYLB?si=UnY14OnhShiFGas0dhUJaw&nd=1"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Drink</strong></span></a>” is an infectious earworm and this entrancing track flutters through the materialistic wonders of life, and lands on the remaining fact that staying grounded in what is really important - the human connection - is the key to living a meaningful life. </p>
<p><strong><a contents="Weekend Lover" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/sean-jones/438745452"><span style="color:#e74c3c;">Weekend Lover</span></a> </strong>has been in the works for quite some time, a fact that is especially evident with “<a contents="Hooked" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/album/0ekCxxh06VT7nax0XGdYLB?si=UnY14OnhShiFGas0dhUJaw&nd=1"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Hooked</strong></span></a>”, the song marking the halfway point of the album, featuring a rhythmic guitar progression that was written by Sean back in 2010. It took just over a decade for Sean to find the right melody and lyrics to accompany the track, preciseness that is indicative of the singer-songwriter’s dedication to his craft. </p>
<p>In 2015, Sean became the first artist to secure a solo summer residency at the historic <a contents="Casa Loma" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://casaloma.ca/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Casa Loma</strong></span></a> in downtown Toronto. The Monday night revue titled <strong>Soul in The City</strong> gave Jones and his nine-piece band, <a contents="The Righteous Echo" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/album/0ekCxxh06VT7nax0XGdYLB?si=UnY14OnhShiFGas0dhUJaw&nd=1"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>The Righteous Echo</strong></span></a>, the chance to showcase his original songs as well as their take on popular old-school R&B and soul hits. The show would also give emerging artists a stage to share their talents. </p>
<p>The night's overwhelming success led to <strong>WestJet</strong>, Canada’s second-largest airline, handpicking Sean to create a musical experience for the passengers aboard their flights. For the project titled, <strong>The WestJet Boarding Sessions</strong>, Jones recorded new versions of classic Canadian hits such as <a contents="These Eyes" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/album/0ekCxxh06VT7nax0XGdYLB?si=UnY14OnhShiFGas0dhUJaw&nd=1"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>These Eyes</strong></span></a> by <strong>The Guess Who</strong>, <a contents="The Weight&nbsp;by The Band" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/album/0ekCxxh06VT7nax0XGdYLB?si=UnY14OnhShiFGas0dhUJaw&nd=1"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>The Weight by The Band</strong></span></a>, and <a contents="Angel" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/album/0ekCxxh06VT7nax0XGdYLB?si=UnY14OnhShiFGas0dhUJaw&nd=1"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Angel</strong></span></a> by <strong>Sarah McLachlan</strong> and flew across Canada to interview some of these cherished musical icons. </p>
<p><em>“Growing up, my parents played all the classics, Temptations, Marvin Gaye, Otis Redding, The Supremes... the list goes on and on. I loved all of it then and to this day. However, the music of the late ‘80s and ‘90s is what sparked my interest in performing. There was something about the musical energy of that time. The R&B/Pop songs were infectious and well-written. I was truly missing that vibe and started writing songs in that vein. It’s taken a couple of years to finish, but I’m excited to start sharing it with everyone.”</em> </p>
<p>Sean continues his long-time working relationship with manager <strong>Laura van Leest</strong> of <a contents="Bellefair Artists" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.bellefairartists.com/"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>Bellefair Artists</strong></span></a> and will spend the better part of 2022 promoting the new album, performing select shows across Canada, and continuing to grow his acting resume with <strong>Hero Artists</strong>. </p>

<p>Dan exploded onto the Canadian country scene in 2016 with the release of his second single “<a contents="Found" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/3Av6JdBs0MuhIPnCqPg6EI"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Found</strong></span></a>” (Co-written by <strong>Clayton Bellamy</strong> of <strong>The Road Hammers</strong>). Dan became arguably the indie story of 2016/2017 as his single “<a contents="Found" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/3Av6JdBs0MuhIPnCqPg6EI"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Found</strong></span></a>” rocketed up the charts and he became the #1 charting indie artist in Canada. It was also the #1 selling Canadian country song for several weeks in July and August 2016. On just his second release ever in country music – he has a <strong>GOLD single</strong>. The following singles helped further his momentum with more top 20 recognition and solidified his name as an artist on the rise – definitely someone to watch as he nears his first platinum record. </p>
<p>Dan is only 5 years into his country career but is far from “green” in the music industry. He spent over 10 years playing in the well-known Canadian indie rock band <strong>Tupelo Honey</strong> (who had several top 40 hits, top-selling iTunes records, and toured with bands like Bon Jovi). </p>
<p>Dan’s country sound came together as he started writing and working on music with Toronto producer <a contents="Jeff Dalziel" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.sharp9music.com/producer-management-2"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Jeff Dalziel</strong></span></a> (Washboard Union, River Town Saints, Autumn Hill, Brett Kissel) and the two spent the better part of a year developing an EP that’s characteristic of Dan’s love of “good time” music. Those “good time” vibes are also a huge part of his personality. </p>
<p>One view of his music videos and you will understand that the fun, sincere energy Dan brings to country music is truly unique. The video for “<a contents="Found" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/3Av6JdBs0MuhIPnCqPg6EI"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Found</strong></span></a>” cost only $500 and yet somehow it was top 20 on <strong>CMT</strong>; the video for “<a contents="Barn Burner" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/3Av6JdBs0MuhIPnCqPg6EI"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Barn Burner</strong></span></a>” involved Dan dressing up as a mixture between John Wayne and Elton John, wandering the streets of Tokyo; and of course we can't forget “<a contents="Say We Did" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/3Av6JdBs0MuhIPnCqPg6EI"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Say We Did</strong></span></a>”, which shows Dan converting his garage into a cardboard version <strong>Star Ship Enterprise</strong>. </p>
<p>Expanding his fan base internationally, Dan played shows in Beijing, China, and Tours, France. He then went on to play in Milan and Budapest to film a music video for his upcoming single “<a contents="These Are My People" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/3Av6JdBs0MuhIPnCqPg6EI"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>These Are My People</strong></span></a>”. The idea for the music video came about when Dan discovered on YouTube that people from all over the world are line dancing to his songs. He has now played over 200 shows across 7 countries (including a record-breaking 120 show tour with Brett Kissel on the most extensive tour in Canadian history). </p>
<p>While on tour with <strong>Brett Kissel</strong> in 2019, Dan’s EP “<a contents="Juliet" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/3Av6JdBs0MuhIPnCqPg6EI"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Juliet</strong></span></a>” was released, and debuted at #1 on the Canadian iTunes Country charts. The album was later <strong>nominated</strong> for <strong>Roots Album Of The Year</strong> at the <strong>2019 CCMA</strong>, and was the album that<strong> won</strong> for “<strong>Producer of the Year</strong>”. </p>
<p>Truly embodying the indie spirit, you’ll never find Dan just waiting on his laurels. When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, he created and hosted Canada’s FIRST live digital music festival “<strong>Diesel Bird Fest</strong>”, which featured some of Canada’s top artists including <strong>Dallas Smith</strong>, <strong>Corb Lund</strong>, and many more. <strong>Diesel Bird</strong> successfully raised $54,000 for charity. He then went on to create and host Canada’s first hotel music festival (<strong>Diesel Bird Hotel Fest</strong>) which sold out in 1 day. </p>
<p>Recently Dan has been writing for/with <strong>Gord Bamford</strong>, <strong>Tim Hicks</strong>, <strong>W3apons</strong>, <strong>The Congregation</strong>, <strong>Chad Brownlee</strong>, <strong>The Standstills</strong>, and so many more. As a songwriter, he has had top 40 songs in 3 genres now and continues to keep the creative momentum rolling alongside his artist career. </p>
<p>Dan’s single “<a contents="Really Shouldn’t Drink Around You" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/dan-davidson/281340086"><span style="color:#ff6633;"><strong>Really Shouldn’t Drink Around You</strong></span></a>” was released in October 2021.</p>

<p>Growing up in Merlin, Ontario, a small Canadian farming community near Chatham, <a contents="Michelle Wright" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.michelle-wright.com/"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Michelle Wright</strong></span></a> heard the rhythm & blues and Motown hits coming out of Detroit, just forty‐five minutes away. But especially, she heard the strains of country music since her parents were both country performers. "My earliest memories of music are singing in the car or spending the weekend with my father after my parents separated and watching him put on a rhinestone‐studded suit to perform in." As a young girl, she tagged along to countless shows. "We were never a family band, but I got a lot of inspiration and encouragement from my mother. That's where my love of country music really began." </p>
<p>In 1988, she teamed with <strong>Savannah Records</strong> President <strong>Brian Ferriman</strong> to release her first CD, <strong>Do Right By Me</strong>, in Canada and set off to tour North America. <strong>Do Right By Me</strong> was a major hit in her homeland, with seven chart singles and sales well over 40,000 copies, and it opened many doors in the United States. The American country music world was impressed, and the new <strong>Arista/Nashville</strong> label made Michelle one of its flagship artists. </p>
<p>The following year she signed with <strong>Arista/Nashville</strong> and in 1990, Michelle released her first U.S. album, <a contents="Michelle Wright" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.michelle-wright.com/"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Michelle Wright</strong></span></a>. American audiences responded immediately and enthusiastically to "that girl singer from up north with the snow in her videos," and her first single, "<strong>New Kind Of Love</strong>," became her first Top Thirty American hit. </p>
<p>In 1992, <strong>Arista</strong> released <strong>Now & Then</strong>, which included the song "<strong>Take It Like A Man</strong>," "<strong>Take It Like A Man</strong>," which was released in February of 1992, the first of seven singles from the project. In less than a year, Michelle became the first Canadian‐born artist in the modern era of country music to have a Top Ten hit in America, a Number One video on <strong>CMT‐USA</strong> (also for "Take It Like A Man") and to win a major <strong>U.S. music industry award</strong> (the <strong>Academy of Country Music Top New Female Vocalist award in 1992</strong>). The song also catapulted Michelle to superstardom in Canada, receiving a total of twelve music industry awards, including the 1993 Canadian <strong>Country Music Association's Fans' Choice Entertainer Of The Year</strong> award and double platinum honors for <strong>Now & Then</strong> the same year. </p>
<p>The Reasons Why followed in 1994. After co‐hosting the <strong>TNN/Music City News Awards</strong> the same year and hosting the <strong>CCMA Awards</strong> in 1995, her ease in front of the camera led to her guest appearance on the syndicated series "<strong>Due South</strong>." <strong>For Me It's You</strong> (1996) marked the first time one of Michelle's own songs, the stirring "<strong>What Love Looks Like</strong>," was made available to her American fans. At the <strong>1997 CCMA Award</strong>s, she delivered a show‐stopping, gospel‐tinged rendition of the Curtis Mayfield hit, "<strong>People Get Ready</strong>," accompanied by a fifty‐voice choir. A personal career highlight for Michelle, she reflects, "I still get goose bumps whenever I hear that version." </p>
<p>"<strong>Your Love</strong>," Michelle's 1998 collaboration with pianist <strong>Jim Brickman</strong>, was named the <strong>CCMA Vocal/Instrumental Collaboration of the Year</strong>, and the video for "<strong>Your Love</strong>" topped the <strong>CMT Canada</strong> charts. The success of "<strong>Your Love</strong>" did not go unnoticed by Brickman's label, <strong>New York-based Windham Hill Records</strong>. The collaboration was included on <strong>Brickman's CD Destiny</strong> and released to U.S. <strong>Adult Contemporary radio</strong> in October 1999. The song became a <strong>Top 20 AC</strong> hit in early 2000. </p>
<p>At the dawn of the new millennium, Michelle marked her ten‐year association with Arista/ Nashville with the international release of her latest American album, <strong>Michelle Wright: The Greatest Hits Collection</strong>. The album contained eleven of the songs that shaped Michelle's career since she signed with the label. They appeared in near‐chronological order, rolling out the soundtrack of Michelle's life: "<strong>New Kind Of Love</strong>," "<strong>All You Really Wanna Do</strong>," "<strong>Take It Like a Man</strong>," "<strong>He Would Be Sixteen</strong>," "<strong>Guitar Talk</strong>," "<strong>Now & Then</strong>," "<strong>One Good Man</strong>," "<strong>Safe In The Arms Of Love</strong>," "<strong>Nobody's Girl</strong>," "<strong>What Love Looks Like</strong>," and "<strong>The Answer Is Yes</strong>." The album also contained five songs never before found on a <strong>Michelle Wright</strong> album: two new songs co‐written by Michelle, "<strong>When I Found You</strong>" and "<strong>I Surrender</strong>," plus "<strong>Your Love</strong>," her gospel version of "<strong>People Get Ready</strong>," and her "<strong>Walkin' After Midnight</strong>" duet with <strong>Patsy Cline</strong>. </p>
<p><strong>Michelle Wright</strong>: <strong>The Greatest Hits Collection</strong> offered listeners a sonic overview of ten magical years punctuated by highlight after memorable highlight. Michelle is proud of the achievement her <strong>Greatest Hits Collection</strong> represents. "It felt great to be at that point in my career. Very early on, when I first hit the road with a bunch of guys crisscrossing North America in an old van, sleeping in the back on top of a couple of Peavey guitar amps, I could only dream about having enough hits to make a greatest hits package. And then there we were." </p>
<p>The twenty‐first century saw five more CDs from Michelle generating more sales and more hits: <strong>Shut Up and Kiss Me</strong> (<strong>Sony/BMG 2002</strong>); her first Christmas album, <strong>A Wright Christmas</strong>, released in Canada in 2005 and internationally on <strong>Savannah Music</strong> at Christmas time, 2008; her first full album of country material in ten years, Everything And More, released in Canada in July 2006, and internationally on <strong>Savannah Music</strong> in late 2008; the <strong>Savannah Music</strong> reissue of a remastered and repackaged edition of <strong>Do Right By Me</strong> across North America in August 2010 and internationally the following October; The Wright Songs: An Acoustic Evening with <a contents="Michelle Wright" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.michelle-wright.com/"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Michelle Wright</strong></span></a>, a 17‐song collection of many of her hits performed on acoustic instruments and recorded live in Alberta at select venues during 2009 and 2010, released in Canada in late 2011 and internationally in early 2012 on <strong>Savannah Music</strong>. </p>
<p><strong>Strong</strong> (2013) highlighted Michelle's remarkable growth as a singer and songwriter ‐ inspired by the perseverance and strength that she has witnessed in friends, family, and strangers over the years. The album was produced by <strong>Jason Barry</strong>, <strong>Eric Silver</strong>, and <strong>Danick Dupelle</strong> and contained 11 songs, 10 of which she co‐wrote. </p>
<p>Michelle continued to divide her time between touring and songwriting, but in late 2016, Michelle knew that it was time to head back into the studio with a new team behind her. "My music is always an extension of me," says Wright, "And each new song is a chance to push a little harder, to dig a little deeper." In 2017, she enlisted producer, friend, and fellow Canadian <strong>Bob Funk</strong> to sort through the mountain of songs she had written, co-written, and received from other writers. The results are an intoxicating mix of contemporary country and the R&B roots that have been the foundation of her musical journey since the very beginning. </p>
<p>The partnership has produced the grooving "<a contents="Attitude Is Everything" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1Kp8PxFfeU5CFHkITQF9sY"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Attitude Is Everything</strong></span></a>" (Daryl Burgess/Joanna Cotton), the gospel-tinged ballad, "<a contents="Lovin' This Day" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1Kp8PxFfeU5CFHkITQF9sY"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Lovin' This Day</strong></span></a>" (Daryl Burgess, Joanna Cotton/Angie Russell) released on Wright's new label, <strong>Navigator Records</strong>. They returned to the studio in 2019 to record Michelle's rendition of the <strong>Christmas Classic</strong>, "<a contents="Silver Bells" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1Kp8PxFfeU5CFHkITQF9sY"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Silver Bells</strong></span></a>," released at the start of her almost three weeks long <strong>A Wright Christmas: 2019 Tour</strong>. </p>
<p>With the pandemic coming to a close, <a contents="Michelle Wright" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.michelle-wright.com/"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Michelle Wright</strong></span></a> is ready for her return to the road and is poised for the next phase of what has already been a stellar international musical career, one that has seen her grace concert stages around the world and earned her twenty‐five Top Ten radio hits, more than forty major awards (including her 2011 induction into the <strong>Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame</strong>). Michelle continues to show her fans that the feisty girl from rural Merlin, Ontario is here to stay. Or, as she says, "What a way to make a living! I plan on making and playing music for a long time to come."</p>

<p>Multiple Juno award-winner <a contents="Colin James" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://colinjames.com/"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>Colin James</strong></span></a> is one of the best blues rockers in the music industry and he is at the top of his game with his brand new album <a contents="Open Road" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/colin-james/149158"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Open Road</strong></span></a>. </p>
<p>Colin James’s music career spans over 30 years and includes <strong>19 studio albums</strong>, <strong>7 Juno Awards</strong>, <strong>27 Maple Blues Awards</strong>, and <strong>multi-platinum record</strong> sales. Inducted into the <strong>Canadian Music Industry Hall of Fame in 2014</strong>, <a contents="Colin James" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://colinjames.com/"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>Colin James</strong></span></a> is a beloved guitarist, singer, songwriter, consistently selling out shows internationally. </p>
<p>From the rolling prairies of Saskatchewan to the <a contents="Open Road" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/colin-james/149158"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Open Road</strong></span></a> of a storied career, multi-award-winning, chart-topping, and multi-platinum-selling guitarist <a contents="Colin James" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://colinjames.com/"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>Colin James</strong></span></a> released his 20th studio album on <strong>November 5th via</strong> <strong>Stony Plain Records</strong>. <a contents="Open Road" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/colin-james/149158"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Open Road</strong></span></a> was mixed at the iconic <strong>Abbey Road Studios</strong> in London. Colin supports the new album, which is being released on both CD and vinyl LP formats, with substantial touring in Canada and the US, including a spot on the <strong>Big Blues Bender</strong> multi-day music extravaganza in Las Vegas that took place in September.</p>
<p>That's abundantly clear on the album’s title track, a song co-written by James and Northey that sets the tone for the album for traveling the highways and byways that are part and parcel of a touring musician’s life. But while the track seems custom-crafted to reflect the road life of traveling musicians, it’s a song anyone can find their own lives and experiences reflected in; all summed up in the lyrics, “every life is an open road.” “It’s definitely got a sense of movement,” James says, “which, I think, is compounded by our lack of ability to travel over the last year and a half.”</p>
<p>For James, <a contents="Open Road" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/colin-james/149158"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Open Road</strong></span></a> is the third in a trilogy of records, a natural follow up to the <strong>2018 JUNO Award-winning <a contents="Miles To Go" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/5OH6mZ9jAWB8UnC1447H1j"><span style="color:#f1c40f;">Miles To Go</span></a></strong>, an album that garnered worldwide attention as it debuted on the <strong>Billboard Blues Chart</strong>, the <strong>iTunes Blues Chart</strong>, and added six new <strong>Maple Blues Awards</strong> to Colin’s running total of 27.</p>
<p><em>“Those two records, in a way they’re almost straight blues, and through them, we found a new audience, especially in America. They also had a fair number of covers; some of them reimagined versions of songs I’ve known since I was 12 or 13 years old. So, on <a contents="Open Road" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/colin-james/149158"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Open Road</strong></span></a> I wanted to try and stay true to that kind of blues, but also to show some growth.”</em></p>
<p><a contents="Open Road" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/colin-james/149158"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Open Road</strong></span></a> mines the past and present for inspiration in equal measure. It’s also a record that finds James looking forward with determination. After 19 months and a change of Covid, everyone feels more than a bit down and done. But while James isn’t immune to that feeling, the variety of blues he presents on Open Road – rather than dwelling on struggle – is meant to lift people’s spirits, encourage them to shake off the shadows, and move forward in a way that’s fiercely hopeful.</p>
<p>Directed by <strong>Cole Northey</strong>, “<a contents="Down On The Bottom" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/colin-james/149158"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Down On The Bottom</strong></span></a>” video opens with <a contents="Colin James" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://colinjames.com/"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>Colin James</strong></span></a> driving a Classic Black ’66 Mustang convertible down a dirt country road as the crack of drums and searing guitar roll in. With soaring vocals, James rocks this cover (Bob Dylan, Jim James) with a sweet, sanctified feel that preaches a loner’s gospel and an arrangement that keeps James’ vocal talent front and center. His guitar tones are crisp and beautiful, embellishing the spaces around his voice creating magic. James displays a master’s touch here and has created one of the finest roots music videos of 2021. The song was produced by <a contents="Colin James" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://colinjames.com/"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>Colin James</strong></span></a> and <strong>Dave Meszaros</strong>.</p>

He’s been following the path Vaughan set out for him that night when Stevie Ray told him, “I’m opening doors for you –walk through them.” </p>
<p>His 1988 self-titled debut, featuring two self-penned hits, “<a contents="Voodoo Thing" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/5OH6mZ9jAWB8UnC1447H1j"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>Voodoo Thing</strong></span></a>” and “<a contents="Five Long Years" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/5OH6mZ9jAWB8UnC1447H1j"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>Five Long Years</strong></span></a>,” was the fastest-selling album in Canadian history, winning him his first of now-seven <strong>JUNOs</strong>, and an opening spot on tour with <strong>Keith Richards</strong>. </p>

An anthem for every small-town truck enthusiast, the new track embodies JBB’s passion and knowledge for trucks and the memories they know so many fans have with their own pick-ups. </p>
<p><em>“We were so surprised no one had written this song yet,” said JBB frontman James Barker on how the track came to be. “When we got in the room to write a few months ago two of us actually came separately with this exact idea so we knew we had something good. When writing songs you always want every lyric to be true but sometimes you have to stretch things a bit. That wasn’t the case with this - every lyric was something one of us had experienced; the first line is actually about my first truck.” </em></p>
<p>Written by <a contents="James Barker" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.jamesbarkerband.com/"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>James Barker</strong></span></a>, <strong>Jordan Minton</strong> (Keith Urban, Dan & Shay), <strong>Hunter Phelps</strong> (Florida Georgia Line), and <strong>Casey Brown</strong> (Russel Dickerson), “<a contents="New Old Trucks" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/new-old-trucks-feat-dierks-bentley-single/1588782354"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>New Old Trucks</strong></span></a>” brought together four of the industry’s top songwriters who also happen to know a thing or two about trucks. Having all grown up in rural country areas across the U.S. and Canada the track came together naturally as they reminisced about their own memories of driving around with their dads on weekends and buying their own first trucks. Anchored in nostalgia from the smell of old leather interiors each remembers so fondly, the track paints a vivid story that so many will relate to whether it’s tied to a truck or not —of the tangible things in life that we hold closest because of the memories they have helped us create. </p>
<p>Today’s release marks a full-circle moment for <a contents="JBB" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.jamesbarkerband.com/"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>JBB</strong></span></a> as they come together with <a contents="Dierks Bentley," data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.dierks.com/beers-on-me-tour"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>Dierks Bentley</strong>,</span></a> an artist that they have looked up to since starting the band in 2015. The four-piece has covered a number of songs by Bentley throughout their sets over the years and had the chance to play with the <strong>multi-ACM</strong> and <strong>CMA nominated</strong> artist in 2016 during a show at <strong>Boots and Bourbon</strong> in Toronto. After just one listen of “<a contents="New Old Trucks" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/new-old-trucks-feat-dierks-bentley-single/1588782354"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>New Old Trucks</strong></span></a>,” Bentley knew he wanted to be a part of the track. While it may sound like the song was written for a JBB and Bentley collaboration from the start, the perfect harmonies were really just the stars aligning. “We’ve looked up to Dierks since we started out and always respected everything he brought to country music. We can’t thank him enough for going so far out of his way to champion us and make us feel like we mattered even when we were still just a band scrapping for tips every night,” said Barker. </p>
<p><em>"I’ve tried to write a few songs over the years that reflect how I feel about my ‘94 Chevy truck, and why I’ve never gotten a new one,” said Bentley. "After hearing this song, however, I knew I’d never try to write one again...this song says it all. I’m honoured that the James Barker Band invited me to be a part of it. It hits home with me big time." </em></p>
<p>Earlier this spring, <a contents="JBB" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.jamesbarkerband.com/"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>JBB</strong></span></a> announced a landmark U.S. record deal with <strong>Sony Music Nashville</strong> and <strong>Villa 40</strong> and released their first track with the new label, “<a contents="Over All Over Again" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/54lUDwCk35ihJuK3yJCqHA"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Over All Over Again</strong></span></a>.” In just a few months the track took its spot on the top of the charts earning them their third #1 on Canadian radio. The <strong>2019/2020 CMA nominees</strong> for International Artist of the Year kept busy this summer with shows across Canada and the U.S. while continuing their unprecedented live stream series on their <strong>Instagram</strong>, <strong>Facebook</strong>, <strong>Twitter</strong>, <strong>YouTube</strong>, and <strong>TikTok</strong> social media channels. The <strong>Live Stream</strong> series culminated with their 150th show on September 27.

<p>East Coast’s very own country-rock band, <a contents="Farewell Town" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.farewelltown.com/"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Farewell Town</strong></span></a> delivers a hard-hitting and captivating performance on stage night after night. </p>
<p><a contents="Farewell Town" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.farewelltown.com/"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Farewell Town</strong></span></a>, consists of four main members: <strong>Michael Lloyd</strong> (Vocals / Guitars), <strong>Shaky White</strong> (Vocals / Bass), <strong>Jordan LeBlanc</strong> (Vocals/ Guitars), and <strong>Scott Musgrave</strong> (Drums / Cymbals). </p>
<p>Years before forming <a contents="Farewell Town" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.farewelltown.com/"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Farewell Town</strong></span></a>, the members grew up in separate small-town communities in Atlantic Canada before saying farewell to their respective towns and joining forces in Halifax, Nova Scotia. </p>
<p>The band was formed in Halifax, Nova Scotia while playing first as a backing band for emerging local country artists on the East Coast of Canada.

Since then, the four-session musicians have combined their uplifting talent and passion for music to form the power-house country-rock band, now known as <a contents="Farewell Town" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.farewelltown.com/"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Farewell Town</strong></span></a>.

I’ve written a lot of songs that weren’t the right fit for OBS, and I’m excited to finally share them beyond jamming in my living room,” said Shane. “It’s a song about reconnecting to music and my creativity as a whole. I hope the lyrics connect with anyone who has had a dream and maybe lost sight of what made it so special to them in the first place.” </em> </p>
<p>Best known as the lead singer and songwriter of the rock band <a contents="One Bad Son" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.onebadson.com/"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>One Bad Son</strong></span></a>, his commanding stage presence and soaring vocal range have put him in a league of his own as a Rock N Roll frontman for the last 18 years. <a contents="OBS" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.onebadson.com/"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>OBS</strong></span></a> has toured with incredible artists such as <strong>Def Leppard</strong>, <strong>Judas Priest</strong>, and <strong>Shinedown</strong>, and landed a coveted spot on the only Canadian stop of the <strong>2019 Rolling Stones tour</strong>. </p>
<p>In embracing the full spectrum of his art, Shane has also embarked on a career as a professional comic book artist. His first series, the medieval noir <a contents="Nottingham" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://madcavestudios.com/?s=nottingham"><span style="color:#9b59b6;"><em><strong>Nottingham</strong></em></span></a> with Florida publisher <a contents="Mad Cave Studios" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://madcavestudios.com/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Mad Cave Studios</strong></span></a>, has already gained great success, shattering all of the company’s previous sales records, with each book receiving multiple printings. </p>
<p>To coincide with the single release Shane will also release a 20-page graphic novel that he created called “<a contents="Shiver" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/7tKf1PLXPWJVXokWP8rLqT"><span style="color:#66cccc;"><strong>Shiver</strong></span></a>”, it can be viewed here and the cover art is below. </p>

<p><em>“You never expect to get such a huge hit your first time out! I am truly honoured and grateful to the Mad Cave team and to the fans.” He says that the success of Nottingham has brought him one step closer to a lifelong aspiration, “I’ve wanted to draw comics my whole life, and I will always love making music. To be able to do both is a dream come true. All I really want is more art all the time!” </em></p>

<p>(Winnipeg, MB) <strong>Country Recording Artist <a contents="Kendra Kay" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.kendrakaymusic.com/"><span style="color:#f1c40f;">Kendra Kay</span></a></strong> is set to release new music. The <strong>2 x MCMA Female Artist of the Year</strong> winner has had the opportunity to spend more time on her family ranch in the past two years than she has in a long time. As a songwriter, she felt naturally inspired to write about it. This is how her next single <a contents="Homegrown Heart" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/55wvuImkFMHjZ1nYmhdXYJ?si=f00BEvRpSV2mHgbJ6aKgkA&nd=1"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Homegrown Heart</strong></span></a> was born. </p>
<p><em>“This song is my story – it is inspired by my roots, life, and family. I wrote it to tell the story of who I am, and from the idea that everyone has that little piece of home, it is a universal feeling. When I am not out on the road touring, I am on the road barrel racing or at home working with my horses and that feels like home for me. I know there are so many people out there that will connect with this song and feeling, no matter where they call home,” says Kendra Kay. </em></p>
<p>When reigning <strong>MCMA Fan’s Choice Award</strong> winner <a contents="Kendra Kay" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.kendrakaymusic.com/"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>Kendra Kay</strong></span></a> was unable to tour with her band, she turned to another passion. She loaded up her horse and hit the road for a different reason. Kendra joined the rodeo circuit which led to winning a <strong>Championship Buckle for Barrel Racing</strong>! </p>
<p><a contents="Kendra Kay" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.kendrakaymusic.com/"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>Kendra Kay</strong></span></a> continues to grow her audiences as she achieves 1 million global streams, has had music videos placed in rotation on <strong>CMT Australia</strong> and embarked on tour dates across Western Canada. She hit the road armed with her 5-piece band, playing major events such as the <strong>Calgary Stampede</strong>, <strong>Red River Exhibition Fall Fair,</strong> and the <strong>Ponoka Stampede</strong> to name a few. </p>
<p>When Kendra isn’t working on the ranch, out on the road with her horse, or touring with her band she is recording new music, cutting tracks from an impressive list of writers including <strong>Carly Pearce</strong>, <strong>Maren Morris,</strong> and <strong>Meghan Patrick</strong>. </p>

''I chat with Theo about 13 years of his musical journey, the industry after Idol hurdles that he has faced personally, over-coming those hurdles and his vulnerability to share his story, and his amazing new music that we cover for you to hear in this interview. You are going to really enjoy this one.'' </p>
<p>''Tams knows how to navigate around lyrics in a song and his creative artistry in his songwriting is the best he has ever been. Tams has always been an artist who focused on the delivery of every note that he sings with precision and his classical training brings that kind of discipline. It is so nice to see this new raspy, soulful side of his voice in his new music this year. I absolutely love this new texture in his voice that brings so much warmth and richness that is straight magic in these new songs. I think we are just seeing the tip of what Theo Tams is capable of. I am really excited to see what the next few years are going to bring from this incredibly talented artist,'' says Cyr.</p>

<p><strong>Saying Goodbye Campaign</strong> </p>
<p>During the COVID-19 pandemic, there were very stringent restrictions on end-of-life visitations which resulted in many people not being able to say goodbye to their loved ones. In reaction to this, the <a contents="Canadian Hospice Palliative&nbsp;Care Association" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.chpca.ca/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Canadian Hospice Palliative Care Association</strong></span></a> (CHPCA) and the <strong><a contents="CHPCA" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.chpca.ca/"><span style="color:#3498db;">CHPCA</span></a> </strong>Champion’s Council announced the launch of the “<a contents="Saying Goodbye" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.chpca.ca/goodbye-concert/"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Saying Goodbye</strong></span></a>” campaign in the spring of 2020. This campaign called on health authorities to implement a more compassionate approach to end-of-life visitations across Canada during the COVID-19 pandemic. </p>
<p>Many people were also unable to have funerals or celebrations of life events during the period of social distancing and isolation, which can have a profound effect on the grieving process. <a contents="Saying Goodbye" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.chpca.ca/goodbye-concert/"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Saying Goodbye</strong></span></a> acknowledges the grief of those who have lost a loved one and are experiencing grief, specifically those affected by loss during the quarantine period of the COVID-19 pandemic. The message also applies to anyone dealing with grief and bereavement. </p>

<p><strong>ABOUT JOJO MASON</strong>: Since breaking into the Canadian country music scene over six years ago, <a contents="604 Records" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.604records.com/"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>604 Records</strong></span></a> recording artist <a contents="JoJo Mason" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.jojomasonmusic.com/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>JoJo Mason</strong></span></a> has been on an incredible journey. In a career already full of highlights, Mason has earned five Top 10 singles, multiple <strong>CCMA Award</strong> and <strong>BCCMA Award</strong> nominations, an impressive 28M global streams to date, and more. This past year Mason was presented with his first <strong>CRIA gold-certified record</strong> for ‘<a contents="Better On You" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/4IXAxCHuarvDtv7K0NS6x6?si=t9p1K4FiQdm4dQodjU19wA&dl_branch=1&nd=1"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Better On You</strong></span></a>’; his highest charting and most streamed single to date, sitting at 6.5M streams and rising. This past August, Mason showcased his ability to capture audiences with his live energy while touring across Canada, including two days at the <strong>Lifted Hotel Festival</strong> in Vancouver BC, a charity benefit for mental health with all proceeds going toward <strong>Lifted, A Dallas Smith Charitable Organization</strong>.

With the release of his latest single ‘<a contents="Broken Umbrella" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/4IXAxCHuarvDtv7K0NS6x6?si=t9p1K4FiQdm4dQodjU19wA&dl_branch=1&nd=1"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Broken Umbrella</strong></span></a>’ and the news of his forthcoming seven-song EP, Mason is looking forward to getting back on the road again, making memorable connections, and entertaining fans. </p>

<p>If you’re craving a bit of relief from the apprehension and uncertainty of our troubled times, <a contents="New Moon Junction" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://newmoonjunction.com/"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>New Moon Junction</strong></span></a> has just what you’re looking for. </p>
<p>Country's hot new trio <a contents="New Moon Junction" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://newmoonjunction.com/"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>New Moon Junction</strong></span></a> has released their second single as a group '<strong><a contents="The Other Side Of Goodby" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/album/the-other-side-of-goodbye/1576559973?i=1576559974"><span style="color:#ff0000;">The Other Side Of Goodby</span></a>e</strong>' that is already charting top 10 downloads on country radio. Hot off the heals of their debut single '<a contents="Real Good Kinda Thing" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1I8ykKQGb4IqMxBlUKTUKt"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Real Good Kinda Thing</strong></span></a>', this incredible trio is delivering exactly what country fans have been waiting for with their dynamic harmonies and killer lyrics that bring us all back home.</p>
<p>With a sound that treads the line seamlessly between new and old school country, the Ontario-based trio of <a contents="Barb Doran" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://newmoonjunction.com/"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>Barb Doran</strong></span></a>, <a contents="Tamara Maddalen" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://newmoonjunction.com/"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>Tamara Maddalen</strong></span></a>, and <a contents="Matt Rogers" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://newmoonjunction.com/"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>Matt Rogers</strong></span></a>, have come together at the perfect time to spread a bit of much-needed positive energy around. </p>
<p>There was no doubt that their debut single, ‘<a contents="Real Good Kinda Thing" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1I8ykKQGb4IqMxBlUKTUKt"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Real Good Kinda Thing</strong></span></a>’, was going to be a huge success with country fans across Canada and with country radio. The stories of life are the common thread with these three solo artists and the fans. </p>
<p>The need for some unbridled positivity was a primary factor in getting <a contents="New Moon Junction" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://newmoonjunction.com/"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>New Moon Junction</strong></span></a> off the ground originally, says Doran: “That was the idea right from the start. Typically, my music is quite serious – even depressing at times – but the great thing about the three of us together is that we very much focus on being positive and upbeat.” </p>
<p>Doran, an established recording artist in her own right, had been looking to make a change in recent years. “I liked the idea of an all-female band, but I wanted to do something different, so I was trying to find two men to work with instead.” Having little success finding the right mix of personalities for the project, however, soon after opening the door to both women and men she found Maddalen and then Rogers. “And when I heard their voices I was immediately like, oh my God, it’s them – no doubt,” she adds. </p>
<p>“We’re all passionate about songwriting, but also about serving the song and supporting each other in that process,” Maddalen adds. “There’s no ego here; we all just want to have fun, grow as songwriters, and see where this takes us.” </p>
<p>The first and most important step in establishing a viable musical partnership is finding like-minded individuals, each of whom brought something unique to the mix that challenges and complements the others; and clearly, <a contents="New Moon Junction" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://newmoonjunction.com/"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>New Moon Junction</strong></span></a> has nailed that part of the equation hands down. </p>
<p>All three are ‘musical lifers’, as Rogers puts it, but what they each have in common outside music is just as important as their shared love of writing, recording, and performing. While vocal and songwriting chops counted heavily in finding the right mix of players for <a contents="New Moon Junction" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://newmoonjunction.com/"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>New Moon Junction</strong></span></a>, being established in the music industry was far less important than being established in life. Period. </p>
<p>The commonality between us only deepens our personal and musical bonds and pushes us forward Rogers says: “That really is the feeling all the way around. We have respect for each other and the project and we’re established people who know what it means to work together with others to get things done.” </p>
<p>That fuels their commitment to the project, to the songwriting and recording process, and to what Maddalen describes as their common goal, “To grow as songwriters and singers, push ourselves out of our comfort zones and get better as artists.” </p>

<p><em>“The idea for the song came to me one morning while I was messing around in the studio. I came across an ‘80s guitar sound and it was like a time machine for me. I started to remember all the great music recorded in the ‘80s and it inspired me to create something similar. The lyrics came from thinking about my three children and realizing that someday my little girl is going to have her heartbroken. It scared me because my job as a father is to protect my children. But I came to the conclusion that life happens and all you can do is try to raise your kids to be strong enough to overcome those situations—and most importantly to have respect for yourself and those around you.” Dave took Chris’ initial demo and reworked it as the song’s producer before handing it over to well-known Canadian producer <strong>Eric Ratz</strong> for his final mix magic. </em></p>
<p><em>(Dave), “We always feel that country music can have some ‘meat on the bones,’ as it is a genre heavily rooted in real-life experiences, trials, and tribulations.”</em></p>
<p><em>That attitude has played a big part in Doc Walker’s longevity, along with an overall drive to explore new musical approaches in order to keep their sound fresh. As Dave says, “We just can’t pretend to be something we are not. The fans that have stuck with us I feel have been rewarded with two of our strongest records in recent years, The 8th and <a contents="Weathervane" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/5PGABhW8oXdQS6nINmDJ53"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Weathervane</strong></span></a>. And now we can’t wait to show the fans what we’ve been up to!” </em></p>
<p><em>As <a contents="Doc Walker" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.docwalker.ca/"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>Doc Walker</strong></span></a> continues to look ahead, they are also celebrating the 20th anniversary of 2001’s <a contents="Curve" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/5PGABhW8oXdQS6nINmDJ53"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Curve</strong></span></a>, their breakthrough album that spawned the hits “<a contents="She Hasn’t Always Been This Way" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/doc-walker/28945152"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>She Hasn’t Always Been This Way</strong></span></a>” and “<a contents="Rocket Girl" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/5PGABhW8oXdQS6nINmDJ53"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Rocket Girl</strong></span></a>,” both of which remain staples of their live show. <a contents="Curve" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/5PGABhW8oXdQS6nINmDJ53"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Curve</strong></span></a> garnered the band its first Juno nominations and first <strong>CCMA</strong> awards, a scenario that has been repeated many times over the ensuing years. Both Chris and Dave point to receiving the <strong>2008</strong> <strong>CCMA Fans’ Choice Award</strong> at that year’s gala in Winnipeg as a particularly significant moment in their lives. </em></p>
<p><em>Dave says, “We’ve had a lot of career highlights, from getting to work with so many amazing writers to playing in every province and territory in Canada, and touring Australia three times. And then there are the personal highlights, like meeting <strong>Willie Nelson</strong> and playing the <strong>Whisky A-Go-Go</strong> in L.A. It’s all incredible to look back on; opening for <strong>Bon Jovi</strong> and having <strong>Eric Church</strong> open for us—something I doubt he’ll be doing again anytime soon!” </em></p>
<p><em>Getting back on tour is something <a contents="Doc Walker" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.docwalker.ca/"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>Doc Walker</strong></span></a> has been eagerly anticipating since the world shut down in early 2020. As Chris says, losing that connection with their audience—albeit temporarily—was something he wasn’t totally prepared to deal with. “I think the lack of live shows has given us time to reflect on the last 25 years and reminded me to never take for granted the support we’ve had from our fans. I also realized how much I missed meat and cheese trays backstage! But seriously, the plan has always been to create music that we are proud of and to spend as much time as we can out on the road playing for the fans.” </em></p>
<p><em>As for what the future holds for <a contents="Doc Walker" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.docwalker.ca/"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>Doc Walker</strong></span></a>, Dave says he expects something to come together following their new tour since the band has always fed off the energy of playing live. “That’s how everything starts. The more we play together, the more we talk and plan and write and record. The ‘snowball’ gets big quickly. It has been very difficult not having that outlet for the last couple of years. There is now a heightened appreciation for it because it was taken away as abruptly as if someone had turned off a tap. If there is any silver lining, it’s that it’s served as a reminder of just how much we love making and playing music.”</em></p>

<p>As the son of a motorcycle shop owner and custom car builder, <a contents="Devin Cooper’s" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.devincoopermusic.com/"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Devin Cooper’s</strong></span></a> childhood was filled with opportunities to be creative. Upon exchanging his toolkit for a guitar, Cooper found an unmistakable niche, reimagining the soul of Southern Rock and down-home country. The result is a genre-bending, driven young artist with a world of possibilities. </p>
<p>With the soul of Johnny Cash and the chops of Stevie Ray Vaughan, <a contents="Devin Cooper’s" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.devincoopermusic.com/"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Devin Cooper’s</strong></span></a> thoughtful songwriting and thundering live show will leave audiences wanting more. His perfected vocal sneer is full of attitude and delivers on the promise. Offstage, Cooper’s energy is unfiltered positivity and humility – an incredible asset for any musician with ambition. </p>
<p><a contents="Devin Cooper's" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.devincoopermusic.com/"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Devin Cooper's</strong></span></a> debut single, “<a contents="Nothing On You" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/4K4kyd2OMMEhkCW6nYtCP2"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Nothing On You</strong></span></a>”, released in April 2018, received numerous local accolades. Shortly thereafter, he was nominated for <strong>Male Artist and Songwriter of the Year</strong> (<strong>YYC Music Awards</strong>); <strong>Best Song</strong>, <strong>Best Video</strong>, and <strong>Fans Choice</strong> (<strong>Alberta Country Music Awards</strong>), and was the <strong>winner</strong> of <strong>Artist of the Year</strong> (<strong>Red Deer Entertainment Awards</strong>). </p>
<p>2020 began with a sold-out headlining slot in Calgary at the King Eddy. Since 2018, Cooper has performed alongside some of North America’s top talent including Aaron Pritchett, Gord Bamford, and Lou Gramm of Foreigner. </p>
<p><em>“He’s only 22 years old, and he’s the real deal.” – says Aaron Pritchett. </em></p>
<p>''<a contents="Devin Cooper" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.devincoopermusic.com/"><span style="color:#00cccc;"><strong>Devin Cooper</strong></span></a> is a jewel here in Canada as a naturally gifted singer-songwriter,'' says <a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>Kim Cyr</strong></span></a>, Editor in Chief for <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a>, host of the International <a contents="Music's Journey Podcast" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.musicsjourney.com"><span style="color:#0000ff;"><strong>Music's Journey Podcast</strong></span></a>, and radio host on <a contents="91.3 FM Bluewater Radio" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://bluewaterradio.ca/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>91.3 FM Bluewater Radio</strong></span></a>. ''It is remarkable to see the accomplishments and focus Cooper has. He knows exactly who he is as an artist and his creativity with the vision of what he wants in his music, to the unique sound in genre influences he has delivered in the songs he has released so far, is truly amazing for someone so young. I love the way he sees lyrics and the simplicity of genuine life experiences to vision by capturing and bringing the listener right into the story. People make life complicated. Cooper has a way of delivering the hooks and melodies that capture the simple magic of seeing life through a positive mindset with a silver lining at the end of every day. Cooper knows exactly how to balance work, life, and quality time with family and friends. He is living in the moment and cherishes what he has by creating memories along the way.'' </p>
<p><a contents="Devin Cooper" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.devincoopermusic.com/"><span style="color:#00cccc;"><strong>Devin Cooper</strong></span></a> has been busy writing a lot of new music for his upcoming debut EP. One of those songs on the new EP is his latest single ''<a contents="Country Cliche" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/country-clich%C3%A9-single/1571444751"><span style="color:#c0392b;"><strong>Country Cliche</strong></span></a>''. </p>
<p>There are many things that come to mind when you hear the phrase “country cliche”, but a cool, country-rock vibing song isn’t one of them...or maybe it may be. Regardless, country singer <a contents="Devin Cooper" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.devincoopermusic.com/"><span style="color:#00cccc;"><strong>Devin Cooper</strong></span></a> keeps things both hilariously stereotypical (with his lyrics) and uber-catchy–while proving his musical depth, especially when it comes to the guitar–in his latest single that oozes care-free summer vibes. </p>
<p>“<a contents="Country Cliche" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/country-clich%C3%A9-single/1571444751"><span style="color:#c0392b;"><strong>Country Cliche</strong></span></a>” takes many of the preconceived notions of living a simple country life and turns them into an anthem meant to help listeners celebrate the simplicity of just having a damn good time. </p>
<p><strong>DEVIN TALKS ABOUT THE SONG</strong>: </p>
<p><em>If you can’t sit down and laugh about some of the things you do, then you’re probably taking life too seriously. Country Cliché is as much of a joke as it is literally the truth. It doesn’t matter how long it’s been since I’ve been back home to hang with my buddies, the same small town country things are happening every weekend: parties by the lake, ripping around town with your buds, shotgunnin’ cheap beer, and staying as far away from the city lights as possible. So, call it a joke, call it a cliche, but it is what it is, and if you’re from a small town or the country, you know what I’m talking about.</em> </p>
<p>Cooper's story is pretty cool...to hear my interview with country artist <a contents="Devin Cooper" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.devincoopermusic.com/"><span style="color:#00cccc;"><strong>Devin Cooper</strong></span></a>, click on the link below!

<p>Toronto, ON - ''<a contents="Ricky Duran" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://iamrickyduran.com/"><span style="color:#ffcc99;"><strong>Ricky Duran</strong></span></a> is such a phenomenal human being, a world-class singer-songwriter, and musician, '' says Kim Cyr, Editor in Chief for <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a>, host of the International <a contents="Music's Journey Podcast" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.musicsjourney.com"><span style="color:#0000ff;"><strong>Music's Journey Podcast</strong></span></a>, and radio host on <a contents="91.3 FM Bluewater Radio" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://bluewaterradio.ca/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>91.3 FM Bluewater Radio</strong></span></a>. ''There is so much more to his story and it was an honor and pleasure to interview Duran.'' </p>
<p>Duran started his musical journey at the age of 6 when his father gave him his first guitar. Duran's father was a musician playing the music scene in Boston. Duran started learning guitar by playing every chord in a song until he had it down perfectly. </p>
<p>''Duran's ability to hear music in the way he does and his ability to interpret the lyrics with the soul and depth that he does is pretty special,'' says Cyr. ''That can't be taught and I believe it's something you are born with.'' </p>
<p>Duran's journey playing live music starting after he finished college at the age of 21 yrs. of age. Duran built a strong following in Boston, Massachusetts, and then he had his big break when he decided to move to Texas to chase his musical dream. It was there that he had the opportunity to audition for <a contents="NBC's The Voice" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nbc.com/the-voice"><span style="color:#6699ff;"><strong>NBC's The Voice</strong></span></a>. </p>
<p>''I wasn't expecting my journey on <a contents="The Voice" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nbc.com/the-voice"><span style="color:#6699ff;"><strong>The Voice</strong></span></a> to turn out as well as it did. It was pretty surreal. I don't think anyone who goes on the show expects to get anywhere near being in the finale. I remember standing on the stage on finale night with the last 3 contestants and we all looked at each other and said, ''I can't believe we have the opportunity to be here on this incredible stage doing something we love. </p>
<p>Duran describes what it was like getting ready to go out on stage to perform in front of the world. </p>
<p>''I think it's pretty normal to be really nervous before going out on a stage like that I like to take a moment before performing to get in the zone. I like to really feel the lyrics and understand what I need to do to make that moment count like it's my last.'' </p>
<p>Duran remembers the advice coach <a contents="Blake Shelton" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.blakeshelton.com/friendsandheroes"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Blake Shelton</strong></span></a> shared with him before his performance on the finale night on season 17 of <a contents="The Voice" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nbc.com/the-voice"><span style="color:#6699ff;"><strong>The Voice</strong></span></a>. He told me to deliver the lyrics so that every word is believable. If I could do that then that was exactly what fans would feel when I sang the songs chosen for the finale. I have always remembered that ever since. I chose my songs wisely. </p>
<p>''My interview with <a contents="Ricky Duran" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://iamrickyduran.com/"><span style="color:#ffcc99;"><strong>Ricky Duran</strong></span></a> was very special,'' says Cyr. ''There is very unique and really special about this young artist that I picked up the moment I saw him perform River in the blind auditions on <a contents="The Voice" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nbc.com/the-voice"><span style="color:#6699ff;"><strong>The Voice</strong></span></a>. The standing ovation he received with that four-chair turn was exactly what we were all feeling cheering and watching it all from around the world. I feel even stronger that there are no bounds to what Duran can do in the music industry. He is gentle in his spirit and has a deep love of what music and lyrics can bring to someone's life. He is special beyond words. I hope that fans can hear the beauty in his music and find hope in what it's like to fight through the toughest moments in life like his sisters and Duran have done. </p>
<p>Duran and his family lost both their parents far too early in life and that journey can be the toughest to get through without pain and darkness. Duran shares his candid feelings about losing his father in 2012 to suicide and the darkness that surrounded that tragedy. That kind of loss is very personal and a topic that is extremely difficult to talk about. He lost his mother too a few years later. That kind of pain and loss can bury you. </p>
<p>''I wanted to talk more openly and unfiltered about his feelings about losing his father and what that dialog was like inside his mind and heart,'' says <a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>Kim Cyr</strong></span></a>. ''I think it is critical to talk more in-depth about what each personals journey was going through something like this. The pain is real, the circumstances in the personal stories of each individual can help someone out there that doesn't know what to do with those feelings of anger, or abandonment that comes with this type of loss. There is a flood of emotions that hit at different times. Some hit all at once. It can be pretty overwhelming and without a support system in place, a person can feel lost and trapped in that pain for life. The more raw the conversation, the more hope people have to understand what works and doesn't work for those who have lost someone to suicide.'' </p>

<p>This is the time to raise awareness on this stigmatized, and often taboo, topic. In addition to shifting public perception, I want to use this platform to shine a light on this month to spread hope and vital information to people affected by suicide. Our goal is to ensure that individuals, friends, and families have access to the resources they need to discuss suicide prevention and to seek help. </p>

The new EP is classic Hammers with some new twists, packed with some surprise guest appearances.</p>
<p>The new EP <a contents="Back At It" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/back-at-it-ep/1572439993"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>Back At It</strong></span></a> delivers what fans have come to expect from <a contents="The Road Hammers" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.theroadhammers.com/"><span style="color:#009999;"><strong>The Road Hammers</strong></span></a>, says <a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>Kim Cyr</strong></span></a>, Editor in Chief for <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a>, host of the International <a contents="Music's Journey Podcast" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.musicsjourney.com"><span style="color:#0000ff;"><strong>Music's Journey Podcast</strong></span></a>, and radio host on <a contents="91.3 FM Bluewater Radio" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://bluewaterradio.ca/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>91.3 FM Bluewater Radio</strong></span></a>.

<p>The Hammers release music only when the time is right. They have always been very strategic in their new music releases. After being on a hiatus during the lengthy pandemic break, the band hit the stage at the <strong>Calgary Stampede</strong> for their first live performance. <a contents="The Road Hammers" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.theroadhammers.com/"><span style="color:#009999;"><strong>The Road Hammers</strong></span></a> were among artists like <strong>Dean Brody</strong>, <strong>Aaron Pritchett</strong>, <strong>Jess Moskaluke</strong>, <strong>Brett Kissel</strong>, <strong>The Hunter Brothers</strong>, <strong>The Reklaws</strong>, <strong>Devin Cooper</strong>, and more playing the Calgary Stampede’s raucous <strong>Nashville North</strong> stage.'' </p>
<p><span style="color:#999999;"><em>''Playing hard and bringing the rock, it’s kind of what we do,” McCoy says. </em></span> </p>

<p>Multi-Platinum award-winning entertainer <strong><a contents="Tim Hicks" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.timhicksmusic.com/"><span style="color:#16a085;">Tim Hicks</span></a> </strong>released his latest <a contents="Campfire Troubadour" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://rgk.lnk.to/CampfireTroubadour"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>Campfire Troubadour</strong></span></a>, a seven-song collection available May 21st via <a contents="Open Road Recordings" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://openroadrecordings.com/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Open Road Recordings</strong></span></a>. While Hicks has cemented deep roots in Canadian country music, his genesis as an artist began with humble beginnings, charming bar patrons nightly with a vast repertoire of solo acoustic material designed to please a crowd. <a contents="Campfire Troubadour" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://rgk.lnk.to/CampfireTroubadour"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>Campfire Troubadour</strong></span></a> pulls from this model, reimagining Hicks’ chart-topping sound for a more intimate setting, as much at home in a fireside jam as it would be in the unassuming rooms he once played. </p>
<p>Take for instance lead track ‘<a contents="Slow" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://rgk.lnk.to/CampfireTroubadour"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>Slow</strong></span></a>’ – injecting harmonica and gang vocals reminiscent of unabashed late-night singalongs with friends, setting the tone for an EP suggesting Hicks’ diversity as an artist knows no bounds. The reinterpretation of current single ‘<a contents="The Good, The Bad And The Pretty" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://rgk.lnk.to/CampfireTroubadour"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>The Good, The Bad And The Pretty</strong></span></a>’ is a stripped back offering to pay homage to the fans and experiences that shaped Hicks as a person, artist, and performer, while ‘<a contents="Last Can" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://rgk.lnk.to/CampfireTroubadour"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>Last Can</strong></span></a>’ delivers on his beloved tongue-in-cheek writing, sure to take the backyard party well past the last call. </p>
<p>‘<a contents="The Good, The Bad and The Pretty" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://rgk.lnk.to/CampfireTroubadour"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>The Good, The Bad and The Pretty</strong></span></a>’ is the first new release from the <strong>four-time JUNO Award nominee</strong> and <strong>multi-Platinum</strong> selling <strong>CCMA Award winner</strong> since the June 2020 release of his <strong>Wreck This</strong> EP, which garnered his second #1 single with ‘<a contents="No Truck Song" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/05kfnkzu8HdqnCdHHkJeci"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>No Truck Song</strong></span></a>’. His top 5 single ‘<strong><a contents="Loud" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/05kfnkzu8HdqnCdHHkJeci"><span style="color:#2ecc71;">Loud</span></a>’</strong> from his album <strong>New Tattoo</strong>; which also featured his first #1 hit ‘<a contents="What A Song Should Do" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/05kfnkzu8HdqnCdHHkJeci"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>What A Song Should Do</strong></span></a>’; was licensed to the <strong>NHL for the 2020 Stanley Cup Playoffs </strong>and was chosen as the goal song for <strong>team Canada during the 2020 IIHF World Junior Hockey Championships</strong>.</p>
<p>Delivering track after track with unparalleled quality and consistency, Hicks’ ascent as an elite chart-topping act since making his country label debut in 2013 is undeniable. His vast catalog of highly praised releases including <strong>Throw Down, 5:01</strong>, 5:01+, <strong>Shake These Walls</strong>, <strong>New Tattoo,</strong> and <strong>Wreck This</strong>, have earned the four-time <strong>JUNO Award nominee</strong> and <strong>CCMA Award winner three PLATINUM selling singles</strong>, <strong>nine GOLD singles</strong>, <strong>one GOLD album</strong>, and <strong>eighteen Top 10 radio hits</strong>, in addition to over <strong>87 million collective streams</strong>, multiple sold-out headlining dates and back to back national tours. Hicks, now a three-time consecutive winner, was also the first recipient of the <strong>Nielsen Compass Award</strong>, which recognizes an artist for the most total content plays including streams, single and album sales as well as total social media following. </p>

''Songs like <a contents="Horses and Hearts" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://rgk.lnk.to/CampfireTroubadour"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>Horses and Hearts</strong></span></a> and <a contents="Annaleigh" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://rgk.lnk.to/CampfireTroubadour"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>Annaleigh</strong></span></a> bring that real love of classic country home for us all. ''</p>
<p>I got the chance to catch up with Tim to talk about this special EP<strong> <a contents="Campfire Troubadour" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://rgk.lnk.to/CampfireTroubadour"><span style="color:#f39c12;">Campfire Troubadour</span></a></strong> and how the pandemic inspired him to write some new music and finish songs that he had already started that he really wanted to showcase at the right time for the right project. <a contents="Campfire Troubadour" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://rgk.lnk.to/CampfireTroubadour"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>Campfire Troubadour</strong></span></a> was the right project for these songs. </p>
<p>''It's all about family right now and taking the time to make the memories with the ones we care about the most,'' says Hicks. ''Getting together and remembering the good times, making some new ones with friends and family is what it is all about and <a contents="Campfire Troubadour" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://rgk.lnk.to/CampfireTroubadour"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>Campfire Troubadour</strong></span></a> is that for me. I love camping with my family and spending time in the great outdoors. The songs on this 6 track EP are about family, friends, and having a good time. Sitting around the campfire is something both Amanda and I love to do with the kids. We do it every year.'' </p>
<p>Hicks talks about paying attention to what he was really missing out on the road touring. He didn't realize the gravity of what it takes to care for the family meals, the day-to-day life of looking after the children, the house and all that his wife, Amanda does on a daily basis while being a first responder as a nurse on the front lines. ''</p>
<p>''I look at things much differently going through all of this in the past year and a half,'' says Hicks. "I have always been out on the road performing most of my life and when the world stopped and I had that time to be here for my family on the day-to-day schedules and things that needed to be done, I learned how tough that really is. I sure learned in a hurry the things that I am not so good at. Laughs... I am good at fixing things and looking after my family through my music but not so good at cooking and household chores.''</p>
<p>I talked to Hicks about the special songs he chose for this latest EP and what it meant to him to finally put this one together with music that means a lot to him.

<p><a contents="Big Loud Records" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://bigloudrecords.com/"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Big Loud Records</strong></span></a> breakout artist <a contents="Larry Fleet" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://larryfleet.com/"><span style="color:#d35400;"><strong>Larry Fleet</strong></span></a> is set to drop the needle on his full-length album, announcing September 24 for the release of <a contents="STACK OF RECORDS" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://larryfleet.lnk.to/StackOfRecords"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>STACK OF RECORDS</strong></span></a>. Pre-order/pre-save <a contents="here" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://larryfleet.lnk.to/StackOfRecords"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>here</strong></span></a> now.</p>
<p>Produced by Canada's <strong>Joey Moi</strong> and steeped in Fleet’s organic Country, Southern Rock, and Soul influence, the album follows 2019’s <a contents="WORKIN’ HARD" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6MWr1SmTaCU5BJzOZxwJEw?si=3pomCz8bQY-l99dOMv4FVA&nd=1"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>WORKIN’ HARD</strong></span></a> and the success of his “<a contents="Where I Find God" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6MWr1SmTaCU5BJzOZxwJEw?si=3pomCz8bQY-l99dOMv4FVA&nd=1"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Where I Find God</strong></span></a>” single, further revealing a classic Country star for the modern era. The vocal stunner credits his eclectic taste to his parent's record collection, and with <a contents="STACK OF RECORDS" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://larryfleet.lnk.to/StackOfRecords"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>STACK OF RECORDS</strong></span></a>, creates his own artistic style. </p>
<p>“My mom and dad had one of those big record players with the big speakers and they had a little cabinet with all the records in it. I just loved Willie Nelson and dad loved Merle Haggard, the Marshall Tucker Band, Waylon and Hank, and all those guys,” says Fleet. “My mom would listen to soul stuff,” he adds, “and then she’d have Ozzy Osbourne and Pink Floyd so I grew up listening to a lot of different artists. My influences were all compiled in this stack of records…Every song on this record is based off a stack of records.” </p>
<p>Featuring 14 songs and leaning into Fleet’s roots, <a contents="STACK OF RECORDS" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://larryfleet.lnk.to/StackOfRecords"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>STACK OF RECORDS</strong></span></a> finds the White Bluff, Tennessee, native and former construction worker coming into his own, and collaborating with Jon Pardi, Jamey Johnson, and Bryan Sutton. </p>
<p>Offering a new take on gritty-yet-heartfelt Country Soul, Fleet co-wrote each song on the project with top-shelf tunesmiths like <strong>Rhett Akins</strong>, <strong>Brett James</strong>, the <strong>Warren Brothers</strong>, and <strong>Connie Harrington</strong>. Harrington splits credit with Fleet on the uplifting single, “<a contents="Where I Find God" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6MWr1SmTaCU5BJzOZxwJEw?si=3pomCz8bQY-l99dOMv4FVA&nd=1"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Where I Find God</strong></span></a>,” which has revealed Fleet as a talented singer-songwriter and family man, raised on the same small-town values as his fans. After its release in 2020, “<a contents="Where I Find God" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6MWr1SmTaCU5BJzOZxwJEw?si=3pomCz8bQY-l99dOMv4FVA&nd=1"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Where I Find God</strong></span></a>” has already racked up more than 32 MILLION on-demand streams, while its official video has been viewed nearly 19 MILLION times on YouTube. </p>
<p>Released today, Fleet’s track “<a contents="Different Shade of Red" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6MWr1SmTaCU5BJzOZxwJEw?si=3pomCz8bQY-l99dOMv4FVA&nd=1"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Different Shade of Red</strong></span></a>” showcases another side of his commanding country style. Written by the rising star with <strong>Lindsay Rimes</strong> and <strong>Michael Whitworth</strong>, the romantic blast of backwoods R&B squeezes every last drop of Soul from Fleet’s voice, all about a country boy changed by love.</p>

<p>“I’m always excited to release music that I think people will like,” Fleet says about the brand-new track. “And this is just a fun one to play that’s about a good ole boy getting his world changed by all those things a woman does.” </p>
<p>Both songs give listeners a taste of the meaningful, lasting connections Fleet hopes to forge with <a contents="STACK OF RECORDS" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/larry-fleet/908842783?uo=4&app=music"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>STACK OF RECORDS</strong></span></a>, and there’s more to come as its release approaches. </p>

<p>Since COVID hit, Ty has taken some much-needed time with family and friends after coming off a west coast tour. Ty routinely performs 150-200 shows a year and spends much of his time in between writing and recording in the studio. </p>
<p>Since the world shut down the opposite happened, and he realized how much he had been missing out on. Birthdays, family get togethers. ''Family is so important and I have learned the trick for many of us will be finding a balance between everything when we are allowed to return to “normal”. </p>
<p>Ty says, “The time off has enabled me to focus my attention on new music and refocus what I want to accomplish moving forward.” </p>

The EP is set to release soon. </p>
<p>We all think we have this thing called 'Life' figure out. Where we think we are going, what's coming up next in the whole life plan thing. We can all relate to these thoughts and feelings when we start out working towards our career goals, dreams of what we see our lives looking like, having a family, and traveling the world. Life rarely works out as we planned because life happens and things change. We are seeing that now in the past year when COVID hit. Life isn't meant to be controlled and the song '<a contents="If I Knew Now" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/album/40AEVyjhoCPqn8MkBA0eEH"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>If I Knew Now</strong></span></a>' reflects that and having those feelings about doing things differently in our lives. The truth is, we probably wouldn't have done them much differently. </p>
<p>Ty and some friends were hanging out throwing song ideas back and forth and started talking about how we thought our first relationship would last forever, our dog would never get old, etc and the song came together pretty quick.'' </p>
<p>Ty is also busy back in the studio working on a second album right now. There is some great music coming out of the Baynton camp so we have lots to look forward to in the upcoming weeks ahead. </p>

All the new Let It Be releases feature the new stereo mix of the album as guided by the original “reproduced for disc” version by <strong>Phil Spector</strong> and sourced directly from the original session and rooftop performance eight-track tapes.

<p>Although the Swedish pop group sang “Me and I” at a private gala in 2016 — their first time performing since 1986 — this marks their first time officially reuniting in 40 years. Ahead of the release, they dropped the reflective ballad “<strong>I Still Have Faith In You</strong>,” with a video montage of the group throughout the years. </p>

<p>Olympic Park’s arena in London. General tickets are available on September 7th. </p>
<p>“It’s been a while since we made music together,” the band said in a statement. “Almost 40 years, actually. We took a break in the spring of 1982 and now we’ve decided it’s time to end it. They say it’s foolhardy to wait more than 40 years between albums, so we’ve recorded a follow-up to The Visitors. We simply call it <strong>Voyage</strong> and we’re truly sailing in uncharted waters.” To pre-order the album, click <a contents="HERE" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://abba.lnk.to/albumpreorder"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>HERE</strong></span></a></p>

<p><a contents="Texas King" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.texasking.ca/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Texas King</strong></span></a> has delivered a fantastic new single ''<a contents="Strange Life" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/strange-life-single/1577428125"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>Strange Life</strong></span></a>'' which is my favorite song on my playlist right now,'' says <a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>Kim Cyr</strong></span></a>, Editor in Chief for <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a>, host of the International <a contents="Music's Journey Podcast" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.musicsjourney.com"><span style="color:#0000ff;"><strong>Music's Journey Podcast</strong></span></a>, and radio host on <a contents="91.3 Bluewater Radio" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://bluewaterradio.ca/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>91.3 Bluewater Radio</strong></span></a>. ''<a contents="Jordan MacDonald" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.texasking.ca/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Jordan MacDonald</strong></span></a> writes the lyrics that hit hard with a vulnerability that demands respect as a songwriter. MacDonald has such an incredible voice that carries the lyrics in this story that make you put this track on repeat all day long. </p>
<p>After the autumn of 2019, <a contents="Texas King" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.texasking.ca/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Texas King</strong></span></a> was poised to break out. They had all the wind in their sails; they had just come off of a 4 month North American tour supporting <strong>Big Wreck</strong>, they had just sold out their hometown holiday show (1000 tickets) and their single <a contents="Chandelier" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/55GkrWxCOER93qGLMiX2cj"><span style="color:#009900;"><strong>Chandelier</strong></span></a> was on the rock charts. </p>
<p>Instead in 2020, they took shelter in a studio during a storm and re-emerged in 2021 from the other side looking to pick up right where they left off with <strong>Changes</strong>, their 6-song EP set for release in December 2021.</p>
<p>"<a contents="Not Myself" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/not-myself-single/1570161945"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>Not Myself</strong></span></a>" is the lead single intended to start the journey - a story the band wants to tell. With powerful lyrics delivered by the band's black Canadian frontman, <a contents="Jordan MacDonald" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.texasking.ca/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Jordan MacDonald</strong></span></a>, as he puts it; “Sometimes you have a bad day, sometimes you have 30 in a row. This song is an alert. Everything is not ok. I’ve not been feeling myself. It’s the first step in the process of change. Which is admitting that there’s something that needs to change. I’m sure you can relate.“</p>
<p>The London-based band,<strong> <a contents="Texas King" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.texasking.ca/"><span style="color:#cc9900;">Texas King</span></a>,</strong> was formed in 2012 by frontman and lead-singer, <a contents="Jordan MacDonald" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.texasking.ca/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Jordan MacDonald</strong></span></a>, with band members <a contents="Colin Gray" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.texasking.ca/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Colin Gray</strong></span></a> as lead guitar and back-up vocals, <a contents="Phil Spina" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.texasking.ca/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Phil Spina</strong></span></a> on bass, and <a contents="Rob Shipway" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.texasking.ca/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Rob Shipway</strong></span></a> on drums.</p>
<p>The band was getting ready to record their latest EP when the pandemic hit. Things came to a halt and <a contents="Jordan MacDonald" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.texasking.ca/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Jordan MacDonald</strong></span></a> kept busy engaging with the fans by doing a live Instagram series and he was doing a live CHIT CHAT show where he was interviewing other artists and friends in the music industry.</p>
<p>''I really love the band <a contents="Texas King" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.texasking.ca/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Texas King</strong></span></a> and all that they have accomplished since I have been covering them from the start of their career interviewing them at <strong>Canadian Music Week</strong> (CMW),'' says <a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#9900ff;"><strong>Kim Cyr</strong></span></a>, Editor in Chief for <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#9900ff;"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a> and the host of the International <a contents="Music's Journey Podcast" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.musicsjourney.com"><span style="color:#0000ff;"><strong>Music's Journey Podcast</strong></span></a>.

<p><a contents="Jaywalker" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://jaywalkercountry.com/"><span style="color:#9900ff;"><strong>Jaywalker</strong></span></a> bolts onto the music scene with a fresh sound that puts a modern twist on 90’s country. Made up of the heartbeat from the award-winning band <strong>Hey Romeo</strong>,<strong> <a contents="JayWalker" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://jaywalkercountry.com/"><span style="color:#9900ff;">JayWalker</span></a></strong> brashly crosses musical boundaries to deliver songs that are catchy, heartfelt, and authentic. </p>
<p><a contents="Darren Gusnowsky" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://jaywalkercountry.com/"><span style="color:#9900ff;"><strong>Darren Gusnowsky</strong></span></a> and <a contents="Rob Shapiro" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://jaywalkercountry.com/"><span style="color:#9900ff;"><strong>Rob Shapiro</strong></span></a> combine their natural chemistry formed over a decade of writing, recording, and performing together to create a musical duo that showcases their outstanding abilities. Since 2006 Gusnowsky (guitars/harmonies /lead vocals) and Shapiro (keyboards/harmonies) have been the driving force of Hey Romeo, penning Top 20 hits and winning <strong>CCMA Group of the Year</strong> twice and <strong>ACMA Song of the Year</strong>. </p>
<p>Individually, Shapiro has captured the <strong>CCMA Keyboard Player of The Year Award</strong> an astonishing five times and Gusnowsky has been nominated 2 times for CCMA guitar player and for the 2017 ACMA Award for the musician of the year. </p>
<p>While members of <strong>Hey Romeo</strong>, the pair wrote songs that didn’t quite fit the band’s mold. “Darren and I had all of these great songs put together that we really loved but we never had an outlet for them,” says Rob Shapiro. “So we decided to go out on our own as JayWalker.” </p>
<p>"The name, <a contents="JayWalker" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://jaywalkercountry.com/"><span style="color:#9900ff;"><strong>JayWalker</strong></span></a> literally came to them in the middle of the street on their way to a show at Rogers Place", says Shapiro. “The traffic opened up and Darren said ‘I’m jaywalking!’ and I looked over at him and said, that’s a great name for a band.” And the name is fitting for Gusnowsky and Shapiro who are crossing into new territory as a duo to make a dash for even more success in the music industry.“ We thought if we were ever going to do this, now is the time,” says Shapiro. </p>
<p>Currently, the Edmonton-based duo is working with producer <a contents="Jeff Dalziel" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.sharp9music.com/producer-management"><span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>Jeff Dalziel</strong></span></a> (Dan Davidson, Washboard Union, Brett Kissel), to produce a new record where modern country, roots, and 90’s country music collide all at the same intersection. The new <a contents="JayWalker" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://jaywalkercountry.com/"><span style="color:#9900ff;"><strong>JayWalker</strong></span></a> album is guaranteed to have music lovers gladly crossing the street to hear.</p>
<p>Darren chimes in on their new single “<a contents="Drawing A Blank" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://ffm.to/drawingablank"><span style="color:#9900ff;"><strong>Drawing A Blank</strong></span></a>”. Everyone has had friends and relationships in their lives that, looking back, we’re incredibly fulfilling but life gets in the way and the connection slowly disappears. You think why did I ever let that person go. Can’t think of a thing.”</p>
<p>''Country music just got that much sweeter with Canadian country's new duo ''<a contents="JayWalker" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://jaywalkercountry.com/"><span style="color:#9966ff;"><strong>JayWalker</strong></span></a>'', says <a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc33ff;"><strong>Kim Cyr</strong></span></a>, Editor in Chief of <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc66ff;"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a>, host of the International <a contents="Music's Journey Podcast" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.musicsjourney.com"><span style="color:#0000ff;"><strong>Music's Journey Podcast</strong></span></a>, and radio host for <a contents="91.3 FM Bluewater Radio" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://bluewaterradio.ca/"><span style="color:#3399ff;"><strong>91.3 FM Bluewater Radio</strong></span></a>.

I missed their hilarious wit and banter that I have grown to know and love. These two creative geniuses have only shown us a sneak peek of what's to come with the forthcoming debut album for <a contents="JayWalker" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://jaywalkercountry.com/"><span style="color:#9966ff;"><strong>JayWalker</strong></span></a>. I can't wait to hear the new album they have been working on with award-winning producer '<strong><a contents="Jeff Dalziel" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.sharp9music.com/producer-management"><span style="color:#f1c40f;">Jeff Dalzie</span></a><span style="color:#f1c40f;">l</span></strong>'. Gusnowsky and Shapiro share some funny stories about their humble beginnings and musical journey that lead them both to the award stage.'' </p>

The former contestant and coach recently reunited to perform “<a contents="I Would’ve Loved You" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/5YhWPIcZ5eNSKxrdwJItS7?autoplay=true"><span style="color:#00cc99;"><strong>I Would’ve Loved You</strong></span></a>” on <a contents="The Kelly Clarkson Show" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.kellyclarksonshow.com/"><span style="color:#3399ff;"><strong>The Kelly Clarkson Show</strong></span></a> and Season 20 of <a contents="The Voice" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nbc.com/the-voice"><span style="color:#33cccc;"><strong>The Voice</strong></span></a>. </p>
<p>Following his record-breaking win on <a contents="NBC’s&nbsp;The Voice" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nbc.com/the-voice"><span style="color:#33cccc;"><strong>NBC’s The Voice</strong></span></a>, Hoot has gone on to release several tracks including charitable song and video, “<a contents="Tennessee Strong" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/5YhWPIcZ5eNSKxrdwJItS7?autoplay=true"><span style="color:#00cc99;"><strong>Tennessee Strong</strong></span></a>,” which reached Top 10 in the iTunes Country Singles chart, debut single “<a contents="Dangerous Thing" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/5YhWPIcZ5eNSKxrdwJItS7?autoplay=true"><span style="color:#00cc99;"><strong>Dangerous Thing</strong></span></a>,” special Father’s Day song, “<a contents="The Best Job I Ever Had" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/5YhWPIcZ5eNSKxrdwJItS7?autoplay=true"><span style="color:#00cc99;"><strong>The Best Job I Ever Had</strong></span></a>” and heartwarming love song, “<a contents="Nadine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/5YhWPIcZ5eNSKxrdwJItS7?autoplay=true"><span style="color:#00cc99;"><strong>Nadine</strong></span></a>.” Drawing inspiration from his childhood in the Dominican Republic, Hoot released a cover of “<a contents="La Bamba" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/5YhWPIcZ5eNSKxrdwJItS7?autoplay=true"><span style="color:#00cc99;"><strong>La Bamba</strong></span></a>” from his debut EP which landed in the <strong>Top 10</strong> on the <strong>iTunes Latin</strong> charts. </p>
<p>Much of Hoot’s sincere humility could be attributed to his unique and adventurous life growing up as the 2nd of 9 siblings to Missionary parents. Born in Texas, Hoot led quite the gypsy childhood having lived in Oklahoma, Haiti, and an 11-year stint in the Dominican Republic where he first learned to play guitar. Fluent in Spanish, Hoot credits his diverse musical influence to his time on the island. The singer/songwriter relocated to Tennessee at 20-years-old where he began gigging and attended Tennessee Tech University as a walk-on football player. </p>
<p>There is no denying that Hoot is a natural philanthropist and gives back as much as possible.

<p><strong><a contents="Bree Taylor" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.breetaylor.com/"><span style="color:#cc33cc;">Bree Taylor</span></a> </strong>channels her superwoman vocals on her latest, instant hit – “<a contents="Kryptonite" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/065PMkjtnywi9FMR8xiLpA"><span style="color:#cc33cc;"><strong>Kryptonite</strong></span></a>”. The singer/songwriter from Mississauga, ON Canada has been churning out country tracks for the better part of the past two years, and now she’s granted an all-access to pass to fans on her contagiously upbeat, diary-reading track about how sometimes love that’s so wrong can feel so incredibly right. </p>
<p>Ever feel like someone is SO good but SO bad for you? That they’re your ultimate weakness yet at the same time you can’t help yourself but feel drawn to them and keep on going back for more? Then this song is for YOU!</p>
<p>Since the age of six, Taylor has been harnessing her impressive vox onto stages and in recording studios. The up and comer has worked with the likes of a vocal coach to the stars, <strong>Bob Garrett</strong> (Los Angeles), and <strong>Lorraine Lawson </strong>(Toronto), notable for her work on <strong>CTV’s</strong> “<strong>The Launch</strong>”. </p>
<p><span style="color:null;">Taylor began penning her own tunes when she was a teen and found early success with her pop debut EP</span><span style="color:#2ecc71;"> </span><a contents="Unbreakable" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/065PMkjtnywi9FMR8xiLpA"><strong>Unbreakable</strong></a>. Shortly after, she switched gears and fashioned herself inside the country genre – and her fans came with her. Taylor’s 2020 drop “<a contents="Cry" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/065PMkjtnywi9FMR8xiLpA"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Cry</strong></span></a>” gained an impressive 70 000+ organic streams, and her most recent single, “<a contents="Burning Bridges" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/065PMkjtnywi9FMR8xiLpA"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Burning Bridges</strong></span></a>” soared to #1 on the Canadian Indie Charts in October of last year (#17 of 50 in Indie Songs ranked overall for 2020). </p>
<p>Never one to shy away from the human experience and singing them into reality, Taylor invited fans to her rawest self, releasing an acoustic, off-the-floor version of “<a contents="Cry" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/065PMkjtnywi9FMR8xiLpA"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Cry</strong></span></a>” this past January. Her intention was to give the listeners a new way to connect with the single, but also draw attention to mental health – a cause she holds close to her heart. </p>
<p>On “<a contents="Kryptonite" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/065PMkjtnywi9FMR8xiLpA"><span style="color:#cc33cc;"><strong>Kryptonite</strong></span></a>”, Taylor unleashes a hell storm on a partner who might have been, could have been, had been, but ultimately shouldn’t have been. And we’ve each been there; from flirting with danger to running directly into the fire, many of us know all too well the perilous doom that awaits us when we exchange love for lust. But doesn’t it just feel too damn good to leave well enough alone? Taylor unashamedly lets that careless whisper do all the talking on this rambunctious, roller coaster ride of the intimate desire of knowing better, but disregarding the consequences anyway. </p>
<p>“You might be the devil in disguise,” Taylor affirms, packing heat on her next punch: “Fill up my head with your sweet lies, can’t tell what’s wrong it feels so right.” Written by Taylor and frequent collaborators <strong>Donny Anderson</strong> and <strong>Murray Daigle</strong>, the song refuses to veer off the path of authenticity, honesty, and real, pure emotional highs and lows. </p>
<p>Taylor’s got a gift beyond singing and songwriting – she’s born with the talent that draws you in and holds you captive till every last grit and grime, every last husky note, every last perfectly pitched crescendo has been placed on your lap. You’ll find yourself at the end of the track, rapidly trying to start it all over again. </p>
<p>With a career and brand built on authenticity, honesty, and resilience, Bree’s creative ambitions have no limitations. No matter what life throws at her, Bree is and always will be a fighter and she will keep writing songs, keep singing, and will remain truly unapologetically Bree!</p>

The band is no stranger to success in Canada with their recent track “<a contents="Just The Way" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/4TshyQDihSYXSWqvclXl3I?si=5oeZ4rJFTSCNeaZ5pmt16w&nd=1"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Just The Way</strong></span></a>” a collaboration with Platinum-certified TrailerTrap creator, <a contents="Blanco Brown" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.blancobrown.com/"><span style="color:#16a085;"><strong>Blanco Brown</strong></span></a>, hitting the number 1 spot on the Canadian Mediabase Country Charts and the song recently being certified Platinum in Canada as well! </p>
<p>Produced by <a contents="David Fanning" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.davidfanningmusic.com/"><span style="color:#f39c12;"><strong>David Fanning</strong></span></a>, the 13-track album demonstrates the band’s contemporary sound with classic ingredients, filled with larger-than-life pop hooks, southern storytelling, and the amplified attitude of Rock ‘n’ Roll. In celebration, the band released two new tracks ahead of the release, a fun collaboration “<a contents="Greatest Hits" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/4TshyQDihSYXSWqvclXl3I?autoplay=true"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Greatest Hits</strong></span></a> (<strong>Feat. <a contents="Fitz" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.fitzandthetantrums.com/"><span style="color:#16a085;">Fitz</span></a></strong>),” as well as the wildly romantic ode “<a contents="Take My Name" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/album/for-you/1574505680"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>Take My Name</strong></span></a>,” which fans have been clamoring to get their hands on for months. </p>
<p>From the anthemic, arena-friendly rush of "<a contents="Only You" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/album/for-you/1574505680"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>Only You</strong></span></a>" to the rugged romanticism of "<a contents="Take My Name," data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/album/for-you/1574505680"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>Take My Name</strong>,</span></a>" For You is country music at its modern-day best.

The track “<a contents="Just the Way" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/4TshyQDihSYXSWqvclXl3I?si=5oeZ4rJFTSCNeaZ5pmt16w&nd=1"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Just the Way</strong></span></a>” is already a multi-national No. 1 hit, and has seen great success reaching more than 300 million streams. Currently, in the Top 25 at Hot AC radio, the song mixes Parmalee's sharp songwriting and vocal harmonies with a modern message of self-love and individuality. </p>

"I think people liked its message, the positivity and the way it made them feel— like it spoke directly to them. That’s when we feel most authentic and our best as a band—when we feel like we’re having a conversation with the audience.

<p>Toronto, ON – Canadian singer-songwriter, <a contents="Terez" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.theterez.com/"><span style="color:#ff99cc;"><strong>Terez</strong></span></a>, has released her brand-new, debut EP “<strong>Sad Girl Summer</strong>”. </p>
<p><a contents="Terez" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.theterez.com/"><span style="color:#ff99cc;"><strong>Terez</strong></span></a> is a fiercely creative artist whose talent knows no boundaries. Still, in her early twenties, the Métis singer-songwriter is also a creative director, women’s rights and LGBTQ+ advocate, and ranks among the 2.1% of female music producers in the industry today. With nearly a lifetime of songwriting and performances under her belt, <a contents="Terez" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.theterez.com/"><span style="color:#ff99cc;"><strong>Terez</strong></span></a> has performed alongside Keith Urban, opened for Canadian artist Ria Mae, and was slated to perform alongside breakout Canadian artist RALPH in the spring of 2020. She has been commissioned to write songs for dozens of artists around the world, creative direct music videos and artist’s brands in Toronto and Calgary, and much more. With her ability to write and perform most genres of music, Terez’s own unique musical style blends pop and R&B with a punk edge and are complemented by her deep and meaningful lyrics and velvety yet powerful vocal tone. </p>
<p>Terez’s debut EP, “<strong>Sad Girl Summer</strong>” directly alludes to her love of contrast and dichotomy between melody and lyrics. “The ‘Sad Girl’ portion of the title is the deeper emotion within the EP, while the ‘Summer’ is the fun, uplifting, and at times light-hearted nature of the project.” Filled with lyrical and </p>
<p>Melodic contrasts, uplifting and relatable songs, “<strong>Sad Girl Summer</strong>” showcases the vast musical talents of an artistically mature multi-instrumentalist who bridges the gap between pop, R&B, and punk. </p>
<p>Following her participation in the <strong>SOCAN Equity X Production Mentorship Program</strong> aimed at narrowing the massive gap between male and female producers, <strong><a contents="Terez" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.theterez.com/"><span style="color:#ff99cc;">Terez</span></a> </strong>served as co-producer on six of the seven tracks on “<strong>Sad Girl Summer</strong>”. The program helped the artist obtain the technical skills needed to more easily craft the sounds she was aiming for on the project, followed by a mentorship with a Canadian producer who also collaborated on the EP, Kelland, to take her skill set to the next level. </p>
<p>The first single off of the EP, “<strong>Hot Mess</strong>”, is an ode to poking fun at oneself. The song turns a night of coincidences and mistakes into a fun, uplifting anthem designed to remind listeners to laugh off all the craziness and chaos of life and enjoy the moment. The song is complimented by a vibrant, imaginative, and colourful video that highlights Terez’s brilliantly creative eye in addition to her ear. From the full spectrum of emotions on the electro-pop stylings of “<strong>This City”</strong>, to the revengeful, cheeky lyrics of “<strong>Cake</strong>” and the vulnerability of “<strong>Lonely</strong>”, "<strong>Sad Girl Summer</strong>” is filled with highly relatable lyrics, powerful, gripping melodies while touching on issues that many people face but find hard to discuss such as, self-love, mental health, the impact of social media, and acceptance. </p>
<p>The EP features the lead track, “<strong>Sad Girl”</strong> – a bubbly pop song that serves as an analogy for social media. With lyrics that directly contrast the melody, “the song seems happy and fun but if you dig into the lyrics you’ll see this person is not okay. That’s what this song is all about - you see it on social media every day”. </p>
<p>With a creative eye that is rarely seen in the industry today, Terez’s debut EP “<strong>Sad Girl Summer</strong>” seamlessly merges her creative, captivating melodies and relatable lyrics with her numerous other artistic talents, namely creative direction and music production. Staying true to her classic sound while showcasing her growth and discussing topics that are often hard to write about, Terez’s “<strong>Sad Girl Summer</strong>” showcases a young and talented artist with an understanding of music and the industry itself that can take most artists decades to cultivate. </p>
<p>“<strong>Sad Girl Summer</strong>” is available everywhere.</p>
<p>Everyone has secrets and unflattering truths; <a contents="Terez " data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.theterez.com/"><span style="color:#ff99cc;"><strong>Terez</strong> </span></a>aims to showcase her truth to make fans feel more accepting of their own. Her deeply vulnerable, and personal lyrics aim to make listeners feel related to and understood, while her pop melodies and dynamic vocals make you want to dance.</p>

<p>TORONTO, ON (AUG, 2021) - Coming off the success of his second #1 at Canadian country radio, <a contents="Jade Eagleson" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.jadeeagleson.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Jade Eagleson</strong></span></a> has teamed up with celebrated Canadian icon <a contents="Dean Brody" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.deanbrody.com/"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Dean Brody</strong></span></a> to bring fans what is sure to be the good-time anthem of the year, “<a contents="More Drinkin’ than Fishin" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/more-drinkin-than-fishin-single/1576389799"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>More Drinkin’ than Fishin</strong></span></a>’.” Celebrating the small-town roots that make them two of country music’s favourite voices, the pair feels completely at home in the familiar twang of this fun, light-hearted track about a couple of good ol’ country boys just enjoying some time on the lake. </p>
<p>Giving every outdoor-loving, country music blasting fan the perfect soundtrack for hangs with their bestie, “<a contents="More Drinkin’ than Fishin" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/more-drinkin-than-fishin-single/1576389799"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>More Drinkin’ than Fishin</strong></span></a>’” provided the perfect opportunity for friends Eagleson and Brody to work together. “Dean has been an incredible mentor to me as my career continues to grow,” explained Eagleson. “As soon as I heard this track I knew we could have a lot of fun with it and I’m so grateful that Dean thought so, too. I hope that this song inspires so many fun adventures for friends who haven’t been able to see each other in person for a long time.” </p>
<p>Recognized as Canada’s most celebrated male voice in country music, Brody did not hesitate when approached by Eagleson for this project. “I haven’t heard a voice as authentic, in recent years, like his,” said Brody. “Jade’s going places and I’m proud to be invited along for the ride on this tune. Proud to be his friend too. I look forward to all the opportunities we’ll have to play this song together live this year.” </p>
<p>While Eagleson and Brody weren’t able to record together due to pandemic restrictions, they were able to gather in Ontario’s cottage country earlier this month to shoot the music video for “<a contents="More Drinkin’ than Fishin" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/more-drinkin-than-fishin-single/1576389799"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>More Drinkin’ than Fishin</strong></span></a>’” with esteemed Canadian director, <strong>Ben Knechtel</strong>. Filmed in the beautiful <strong>Kawartha Lakes</strong> region, it didn’t take long until the pair took full advantage of their surroundings to challenge each other in a “who is more country” duel. The pair took a break during their busy shooting schedule to head to Jade’s family farm to figure out who in fact is more ‘country’. Fans eager to know who takes home the title are encouraged to stay tuned to both Eagleson and Brody’s socials later this summer. </p>
<p>This release follows Eagleson’s recent spot on the top of the charts with his single “<a contents="All Night to Figure it Out" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/2nTzAHwCk0swkDdIPj2FIP?si=YV6UaHqcSTCwK4atgfJ-QQ&nd=1"><span style="color:#16a085;"><strong>All Night to Figure it Out</strong></span></a>,” earning him his second #1 at Canadian radio just last month. No stranger to success, the Ontarian set records with his self-titled debut album, which was the most globally streamed debut album for a Canadian-signed country artist in history. It featured <strong>three</strong> <strong>GOLD-certified</strong> <strong>singles</strong> “<a contents="Got Your Name On It" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/2nTzAHwCk0swkDdIPj2FIP?si=YV6UaHqcSTCwK4atgfJ-QQ&nd=1"><span style="color:#16a085;"><strong>Got Your Name On It</strong></span></a>,” “<a contents="Count The Ways" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/2nTzAHwCk0swkDdIPj2FIP?si=YV6UaHqcSTCwK4atgfJ-QQ&nd=1"><span style="color:#16a085;"><strong>Count The Ways</strong></span></a>'' and “<a contents="Close" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/2nTzAHwCk0swkDdIPj2FIP?si=YV6UaHqcSTCwK4atgfJ-QQ&nd=1"><span style="color:#16a085;"><strong>Close</strong></span></a>,” as well as “<a contents="Lucky" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/2nTzAHwCk0swkDdIPj2FIP?si=YV6UaHqcSTCwK4atgfJ-QQ&nd=1"><span style="color:#16a085;"><strong>Lucky</strong></span></a>,” Eagleson’s first #1 on Canadian country radio. Landing Eagleson on <strong>YouTube</strong>’s ‘<strong>Trending Artist On The Rise</strong>’ list, the video for “<a contents="Got Your Name On It" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/2nTzAHwCk0swkDdIPj2FIP?si=YV6UaHqcSTCwK4atgfJ-QQ&nd=1"><span style="color:#16a085;"><strong>Got Your Name On It</strong></span></a>” also appeared on the website’s homepage. Now boasting 5x more views than any other Canadian country music video released since it dropped on YouTube three years ago (53M+ views), Eagleson’s position on this list was the first time a Canadian-signed artist in any genre received this accolade and paved the way for him to become one of Canada’s most-streamed artists. </p>
<p>With <strong><a contents="Dean Brody" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.deanbrody.com/"><span style="color:#1abc9c;">Dean Brody</span></a> </strong>just coming off the biggest year of his career (2020) it’s no wonder why Eagleson considers him an important mentor in his life. Things show no sign of slowing down for the <strong>17-time CCMA winner in 2021</strong>. In addition to his “<a contents="Boys" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/album/11bJwTNQz1xTHQ3yoy1rhq?utm_source=embed_v2&go=1&play=1&nd=1"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Boys</strong></span></a>” duet with country music’s fastest rising star <strong>Mickey Guyton</strong> reaching #1 earlier this year, he saw his 2020 smash hit “<strong>Can’t Help Myself</strong>” with JUNO-nominated brother-sister duo <strong>The Reklaws</strong> receive <strong>PLATINUM-certification</strong> in Canada less than a year after its release. Brody’s “<strong>Canadian Summer</strong>” also garnered <strong>GOLD certification</strong> and his 2012 anthem “<strong>Canadian Girls</strong>” went <strong>DOUBLE-PLATINUM</strong>. The two-time <strong>JUNO Award-winning</strong> artist holds <strong>five</strong> <strong>GOLD-certified</strong> (<strong>Beautiful Freakshow</strong>, <strong>Crop Circles</strong>, <strong>Gypsy Road</strong>, <strong>Trail In Life</strong>, <strong>Dirt</strong>) and <strong>one PLATINUM-certified album</strong> (<strong>Dirt</strong>) in Canada along with six #1s at Canadian Radio, which includes his last three consecutive singles (“Canadian Summer,” “Can’t Help Myself” ft. The Reklaws, “Boys” with Mickey Guyton). With over 12 years of making music behind him, <strong>30+ Top 10 singles</strong>, and <strong>230+ Million Global Streams</strong>, Brody currently holds the spot for the second most-streamed Canadian artist in 2021, behind only Shania Twain. His current single “<strong>Lightning Bug</strong>” is climbing the charts, sitting within the top 10. </p>
<p>Both artists will be returning to live performances this summer and fall. Fans are encouraged to follow along on socials for the most up-to-date news. </p>

<p><a contents="Harm &amp; Ease" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://harmandease.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Harm & Ease</strong></span></a> is a Rock & Roll band originally founded in Burlington, Ontario made up of: </p>
<p>Founding members <a contents="Danny Lopez" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://harmandease.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Danny Lopez</strong></span></a> and <a contents="Rylan Whalen" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://harmandease.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Rylan Whalen</strong></span></a> originally met in their first year of high school. In the predictable suburbs of Burlington, Ontario is where they swiftly began a musical relationship. <a contents="Harm &amp; Ease" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://harmandease.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Harm & Ease</strong></span></a> was officially formed in 2010 as an acoustic project allowing them to explore a more melodic vibe not present in the metal scene. Eventually, fate would find Lopez, along with his family, being uprooted with little warning finding themselves in <strong>Buenos Aires</strong>, <strong>Argentina</strong>. However, this wasn’t enough to separate the songwriting duo. Dedication, sacrifice, and a hell of a lot of plane rides kept the artistic pair inseparable and propelled them into their next stage. </p>
<p><a contents="Harm &amp; Ease" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://harmandease.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Harm & Ease</strong></span></a> is a Rock & Roll band originally founded in Burlington, Ontario made up of <a contents="Rylan Whalen" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://harmandease.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Rylan Whalen</strong></span></a> (Vocals), <a contents="Danny Lopez" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://harmandease.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Danny Lopez</strong></span></a> (Guitar), <strong><a contents="John Goodblood" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://harmandease.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;">John Goodblood</span></a> </strong>(Bass/Guitar), and <strong><a contents="Alex Hamnett" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://harmandease.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;">Alex Hamnett</span></a> </strong>(Drums). This lineup was formed in Buenos Aires Argentina after several reiterations revolving around Whalen and Lopez (founders). The addition of Goodblood and Hamnett proved proficient in rounding out an already brilliant basis. Recording and debuting their 1st two albums in the bustling, artist hub of <strong>Buenos Aires</strong>. They found themselves reaching an international following as they took over the South American rock scene. </p>
<p><a contents="Danny Lopez" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://harmandease.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Danny Lopez</strong></span></a> and lead singer <a contents="Rylan Whalen" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://harmandease.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Rylan Whalen</strong></span></a> met 12 years ago while attending Burlington’s Central Public. By the time they reached high school, they were writing songs together, with another school chum, <a contents="Alex Hamnett" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://harmandease.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Alex Hamnett</strong></span></a>, on drums. </p>
<p>Lopez, 25, is Columbian by birth. His family fled Columbia as refugees, landing at first in Florida and then moving to Burlington when Lopez was 13. While Lopez was in Grade 12, his family decided to return to South America, making a new home in Buenos Aires, Argentina.</p>
<p>Lopez and Whalen stayed in touch on a daily basis, continuing to write songs together through Skype. After a year, Whalen put together enough money to fly to Buenos Aires. He stayed almost five years.</p>

<p>Connections were soon formed with world-renowned talents such as <strong>Multi-Platinum </strong>and <strong>Juno Award-winning </strong>artist<strong> </strong><strong>Gianni Luminati</strong> of <strong>Walk off the Earth</strong> allowing the recording process to begin and their first Canadian recorded album ‘<strong>Midnight Crisis</strong>’. Produced by <strong>Dominic John David</strong> (known for his work with Jack White, Beck, and Willie Nelson), <a contents="Harm &amp; Ease" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://harmandease.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Harm & Ease</strong></span></a> channels the rock & roll giants of the 60s and 70s and passes it through their modern filter, creating a sound that comes across as fresh yet familiar and steeped in the roots of classical music and songwriting. In 2017, the band released their first album “<strong>Wonderful Changes</strong>”, recorded in a mansion to be demolished in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Showcasing a melodic conceptual brand of songwriting with lush arrangements, and a choral quality to their backup vocals. Their second album “<strong>Black Magic Gold</strong>” cranked up the volume and featured a much more blues rock-driven sound, with swampier darker songs and funeral march horns. They have recently recorded a single with <strong>Grammy award-winning producer</strong> <strong>Joe Cicarelli</strong> (Elton John, The Foo Fighters, Morrisey, The Raconteurs) titled “<strong>Nothing More Than Love</strong>”. </p>

<p><em><span style="color:#999999;">"I first saw the band in a small club in downtown Hamilton ON in the summer of 2019. I was immediately enamoured by their playing and their ability to have the whole club up dancing and rockin' out. After meeting the band after the show I was very intrigued by their story and how the members from 3 different countries were brought together by friendship and a love for music. For many years I had been looking for a band to work with that really inspired me and that had the same passion for music and art. I offered to represent the band as their manager and they were very happy to oblige.

<p>Vancouver-based Country Artist <a contents="Kadooh" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.kadoohmusic.com/"><span style="color:#cc66cc;"><strong>Kadooh</strong></span></a>, released his new single “<a contents="Rattlesnake Bite" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1HKSdVEU3JyvGt45zNQ50V?si=OfgJOe2TS3qzefu6dnjgvA&dl_branch=1&nd=1"><span style="color:#00cc99;"><strong>Rattlesnake Bite</strong></span></a>” today July 30 via <a contents="604 Records" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.604records.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>604 Records</strong></span></a> and all streaming platforms. </p>
<p>The new track features his evolving sound, in a rocking country tune that is sure to make you want to get up and dance this summer! </p>
<p>Kadooh’s close friend, and award-winning musician and songwriter <a contents="Chad Kroeger" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nickelback.com/"><span style="color:#cc9966;"><strong>Chad Kroeger</strong></span></a> of <a contents="Nickelback" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nickelback.com/"><span style="color:#cc9966;"><strong>Nickelback</strong></span></a> provided not only inspiration and influence, but also co-produced the new single. </p>
<p>“Country music is a genre I’ve really grown to love, and I think it’s opened itself up on both the pop and rock side. The parameters have really expanded, and that’s been really great for me,” said <a contents="Kadooh" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.kadoohmusic.com/"><span style="color:#cc66cc;"><strong>Kadooh</strong></span></a>. “This song is a put down your phone, get up, and head to the dance floor anthem! Allowing people to let loose and burn off some much-needed steam!” </p>
<p>Growing up in a small town in Alberta, <a contents="Kadooh" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.kadoohmusic.com/"><span style="color:#cc66cc;"><strong>Kadooh</strong></span></a> always had a passion for music as he recalls listening to Charley Pride and Conway Twitty on the way to hockey trips, leading the would-be guitarist to pour over records by Garth Brooks, John Michael Montgomery, and Brooks & Dunn. He soon would turn his passion into a career, joining the music business known as the guitarist and backing vocalist of the rock band <strong>State of Shock</strong>. </p>
<p>After spending over a decade with the band, <a contents="Kadooh" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.kadoohmusic.com/"><span style="color:#cc66cc;"><strong>Kadooh</strong></span></a> made the decision to cross over to country, a genre he’s grown to love, and step into the spotlight for the first time as a solo artist. In 2018, he won his very first country music award, earning the <strong>Ray McAuley Horizon Award</strong> at the <strong>BC Country Music Association Awards </strong>(BCCMA). In 2019, he released his debut self-titled EP and 3 singles, and the winning streak continued leading to <strong>nominations</strong> for <strong>BCCMA Male Artist of the Year</strong>, <strong>SOCAN Songwriter of the Year</strong>, <strong>Single of the Year</strong>, and <strong>Album of the Year</strong>, and ultimately taking home the <strong>BCCMA award for Video of the Year</strong> for “<strong>Somethin</strong>’ <strong>To Roll On</strong>”. </p>
<p><a contents="Kadooh" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.kadoohmusic.com/"><span style="color:#cc66cc;"><strong>Kadooh</strong></span></a> is gearing up to release his debut EP later this year, which was brought together with the help of producer <strong>Jeff Johnson</strong>. The new EP will continue to reflect Kadooh’s new sound — one that has found influence in not only his everyday life but an ingrained love of music as a whole.</p>

<p>''<a contents="CEVILAIN" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.cevilain.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>CEVILAIN</strong></span></a> has become one of my favorite Canadian hard Rock bands today and they have my full respect and appreciation for their music that will be standing the test of time with their hard hitting lyrics like their new single <a contents="WARS" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/artist/cevilain/1318514178"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>WARS</strong></span></a>,'' says <a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#9900ff;"><strong>Kim Cyr</strong></span></a>, Editor in Chief of <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#9900ff;"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a> and host of the International <a contents="Music's Journey Podcast" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.musicsjourney.com"><span style="color:#0000ff;"><strong>Music's Journey Podcast</strong></span></a>. </p>
<p>''As independent artists, <a contents="CEVILAIN" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.cevilain.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>CEVILAIN</strong></span></a> is a very impressive band. They grind out every show by giving the performances that we all crave and expect from all legendary hard Rock bands that have been on the world stage for years. Here's is the deal, <a contents="CEVILAIN" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.cevilain.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>CEVILAIN</strong></span></a> is a fairly new band and they are earning that same respect from every fan (especially me) one at a time because they live and breathe what music is meant to do. It's not about the fame, it's the lyrics that matter, and the creative genius to write the music that brings us to our knees with the kick ass performances that show they are not afraid to deliver that punch in the gut to wake us all up. I think <a contents="CEVILAIN" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.cevilain.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>CEVILAIN</strong></span></a> will be changing the face of hard Rock from the Canadian stage to the world stage. It is so amazing to see this band come out swinging and delivering the lyrics that are complicated, current, and difficult with the world we live in right now. At a time that has been so explosive, hard and painful for people worldwide for so many different reasons, <a contents="CEVILAIN" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.cevilain.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>CEVILAIN</strong></span></a> has taken on some of the most difficult issues of our time and giving their unique and powerful perspective in their music. There is a methodical approach to everything this band does and that is delivering the music that will keep hard Rock alive for generations to come.'' </p>
<p>''I had such a fantastic talk with<a contents=" Cliff Menzies" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.cevilain.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"> <strong>Cliff Menzies</strong></span></a> and <a contents="Eddy&nbsp;Fox" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.cevilain.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Eddy Fox</strong></span></a> of the band <a contents="CEVILAIN" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.cevilain.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>CEVILAIN</strong></span></a>, sharing the concept behind their forthcoming full-length album <strong>VERSUS</strong>,'' says Cyr. ''I love the meaning behind <strong>VERSUS</strong> that takes important issues that have two different opinions or perspectives on a matter and finding a way to work together on the resolution peacefully. The first single '<a contents="Cure" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/artist/cevilain/1318514178"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>Cure</strong></span></a>' really showcased these points and how frustrating it is to watch our world be on opposing sides with little interest in working together to find a solution. The emotive impact of the visual story behind the video '<a contents="Cure" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/artist/cevilain/1318514178"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>Cure</strong></span></a>' is so powerful and hits the exact point of frustration we all feel watching the world events unfold. The creative process is amazing and to hear how <a contents="Joel&nbsp;Lefebvre" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.cevilain.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Joel Lefebvre</strong></span></a> put this video together so quickly, is just incredible. There are so many stories behind the lyrics of this new album that are just so impressive. . It is amazing to see that <a contents="CEVILAIN" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.cevilain.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>CEVILAIN</strong></span></a> cares enough to use their platform in such an important way by writing lyrics for their new music to drive home the values and the concept of peace and how we can obtain it as a whole. We can work together in all walks of life no matter what our views or positions might be. The images related in the videos are haunting and we need to take a serious look at our own views and see every aspect of what we are doing to each other.'' </p>

<p>There’s a sound that isn’t heard enough on Country radio—the sound of organic, three-part female harmonies, offering stories that speak the language of modern women everywhere. Add in some good-natured brash and sassy attitude and you’ve got Canada’s pop-country queens, <a contents="The Heels" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.theheelsmusic.com/"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>The Heels</strong></span></a>. </p>
<p>That title is now undisputed with the release of the trio’s warmly received 2018 debut album, <strong>Love, Heels</strong> and multiple follow-up singles, alongside <strong>BCCMA Award wins</strong>. Although <a contents="Bobbi Smith" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.theheelsmusic.com/"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>Bobbi Smith</strong></span></a>, <a contents="Brittni Dominelli" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.theheelsmusic.com/"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>Brittni Dominelli</strong></span></a> and <a contents="Kyla Rawlins" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.theheelsmusic.com/"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>Kyla Rawlins</strong></span></a> have spent much of these past three years winning over audiences with a dynamic live show that showcases each of their distinctive voices and personalities, they also found time to write over 100 songs during several trips to Nashville—and at their home base in Vancouver— for upcoming sophomore album titled “<a contents="I Am" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/i-am/1572573568"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>I Am</strong></span></a>”. </p>
<p>By incorporating influences ranging from classic country, gospel and Motown, through to powerful contemporary female artists such as Sheryl Crow, Carrie Underwood and Whitney Houston, <a contents="The Heels" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.theheelsmusic.com/"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>The Heels</strong></span></a>’ music, although it may be categorized as country, display a unique musical vision that transcends the genre. </p>

They know it’s not just because of their seamless “family blend” harmony, but because of the obvious personal chemistry they share. And when that chemistry comes down to spreading positive energy, there is just no limit to how high <a contents="The Heels" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.theheelsmusic.com/"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>The Heels</strong></span></a> will lift us.</p>
<p>“<a contents="I Am" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/i-am/1572573568"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>I Am</strong></span></a>” is titled after the closing closing track —a musical meditation of healing affirmations set to the tempo of a resting human heartbeat while vibrating with the “love frequency” of the 528 Hz - a frequency with proven healing potential, with the intention of raising the listener’s vibration while creating a ripple effect of world healing. </p>
<p>Other themes of empowerment and self-love are shared on the tracks “<strong>High Heels On</strong>,” “<strong>Fools Gold</strong>,” “<strong>Faith Over Fear</strong>,” and the playfully sexy “<strong>Hush Money</strong>,” while the ups and downs of love and joy are explored on “<strong>Symptoms</strong>,” “<strong>Happy After You</strong>,” “<strong>Got You Read</strong>,” and “<strong>Fixer Upper</strong>.” </p>
<p>An emotional spectrum of of a country, pop, rock, soul and spiritual fusion that marks our evolution. </p>
<p>Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, to every single person who was a part of this record. From songwriting, to production, the musicians, to design and everything in between. And a very special thanks to you reading this, for supporting our mission and believing in our music. We love you! </p>

<p><a contents="Jamie Warren" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://jamiewarren.com/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Jamie Warren</strong></span></a> is generally regarded as the most awarded independent country vocalist in Canada (<strong>Junos</strong>, <strong>CCMAs</strong>, <strong>OCMAs</strong>). Over his 35-year career he has released 54 singles, many of them hits. He’s also known as a great songwriter and if you’ve ever seen him perform live, maybe a comedian!? </p>
<p>Jamie lives in Kitchener Ontario, Canada, but was raised in <strong>Hanover Ontario</strong> where he pursued an adolescent dream of playing professional hockey in the NHL…with music as a background distraction. When he realized that his natural abilities for singing and playing guitar might make it easier to attract the attention of girls, he hung up his skates. Songwriting was a logical progression for a sensitive guy who wrote poetry and short stories throughout his high school years. </p>
<p>His interest in music was likely genetic since his mother sang and played piano and his father played guitar and mandolin. Jamie had piano lessons at age 5 and guitar lessons at age 8. By the time he was 10 years old it was tradition for the Warrens to entertain after Saturday night euchre games (a Canadian card-game institution) in their smoke-filled basement. His earliest musical influences were whatever his parents listened to on the radio and the only thing his parent’s radio seemed to play, was country music. To this day he’s still a huge fan of <strong>Merle Haggard</strong>, <strong>Tammy Wynette</strong> and <strong>Patsy Cline</strong>. Later in high school his best friend’s older brother exposed him to celebrated vocal groups like <strong>The Eagles</strong>, <strong>America</strong>, <strong>Poco</strong> and <strong>CSNY</strong>. Jamie has always had an appreciation for Texas singer-songwriters like <strong>Radney Foster</strong>, <strong>Lyle Lovett</strong> and <strong>Rodney Crowell</strong>. </p>
<p>Jamie attended Conestoga College to study Broadcasting. His goal was to become the youngest general manager of a mid-market radio station, but he emerged instead with a desire to sing for a living. What changed his mind? Jamie won a regional talent show at <strong>London Ontario’s Western Fair</strong> which sent him to Memphis Tennessee for an international competition where he placed second. Jamie then stayed in Memphis, while he worked a one-year gig at <strong>Libertyland Theme Park</strong> as an entertainer. He still feels a connection to Memphis, the city that kicked off his career. </p>
<p>Returning to Canada he began a great friendship with producer<strong> J. Richard Hutt</strong> who produced “<strong>All Of The Above</strong>” and all of Jamie’s previous recordings. Rick initially engaged Jamie as a singer for jingles he produced out of his Kitchener-based <strong>CedarTree Studios</strong>. “I didn’t have a clue what I was doing,” says Jamie, “thank goodness he had a lot of patience”. He must have learned something from the experience because his first Top Ten hit came shortly thereafter with “<strong>Take Me Home Mississippi</strong>” and subsequently a win as <strong>New Artist of The Year</strong> at the <strong>1985 RPM Big Country Awards</strong>. </p>
<p>Around this time Jamie was being courted by <strong>Warner Bros</strong> in Nashville. To get a record deal at 25 would have been a great opportunity, but they passed on him in favour of a fellow named, <strong>Randy Travis</strong>. To this day Jamie remains a big fan of Randy and was honoured to be in the running with him. In the late 80s country music became more traditional in flavour so he took some time off from recording. He got married and had two kids and played locally in small clubs to pay the bills. </p>
<p>In 1993 Jamie was convinced that both country radio and Nashville were interested in a more contemporary style of music and might make room for him again. He released “<strong>Fallen Angel</strong>” on <strong>River North/Mercury Records</strong>, which yielded an enduring fan favourite and radio hit “<strong>One Step Back</strong>”. The success of this record was followed closely and even more impressively by the album “<strong>Just Not the Same</strong>” which surrendered several Top Ten singles and led to a handful of <strong>JUNO</strong> and <strong>CCMA nominations</strong> in multiple categories including wins for <strong>Independent Song of the Year</strong> and <strong>Independent Male Artist of the Year</strong>. Since then Jamie has released the critically acclaimed “<strong>Really</strong>” in 2003 and a career retrospective collection of greatest hits in 2005 under the title “<strong>Make Me Believe</strong>”. In 2008, Jamie released the very personal “<strong>Right Here Right Now</strong>” followed by “Howl at The Moon” (2010) and “<strong>I’ve Got A Feeling</strong>” (2013) </p>
<p>For the last four years Jamie has been consistently writing with other artists for their projects as well as his new cd “<strong>All Of The Above</strong>” (2018). He felt it was time to say something with his own voice and his own words at a time when country music was contemporary yet again. He’s about to release his 3rd single “<strong>My Kinda’ Pretty</strong>” (Feb1/19). The irony to Jamie, he added a rootsy and traditional sound to his new cd. Don’t worry, it still rocks!!</p>

<p>'Í had the opportunity to chat with Jordan and Myk,' says <a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>Kim Cyr</strong></span></a>. Here is a few of the questions asked in my interview.

<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">It's always a good day when W3APONS releases new music. You guys have been working hard writing and in the studio recording this new music. Did you have a strategic plan when you wanted to release the new music?</span></p>
<p>Jordan: Yeah, we did have a plan right off the get-go to release it and set ourselves with a pretty strict timeline for how we were going to do this recording and we were fortunate to have it all work out without any hiccups. </p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">Tell everyone how the band came to be?</span></p>
<p>We were three young men forging up the mountains and we came down from the mountain as men. Laughter When we met we were guys that just wanted to play music. We played a bit and jammed. We played a few we know that we had something special. You just know. From there we immediately took it on the road. It was a kinda trial by fire. You play as much as you can and we played a couple of covers too and tried to play as much as we could. </p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">You guys are such a hard-working band grinding out the shows as often as you could. I have never seen a band work so hard and do it because you just loved to play. You guys played so often doing as many shows as you could to get your name known. Then you get discovered by Theory of A Deadman. Tell us how that all came about?</span></p>
<p>Jordan: Being an independent band a lot of the responsibility falls on your bandmates. Like the decision-making process falls on the band which I think is good. For our situation, it was great because we remained in control of our artistry. That being said, there is still a lot of learning and wearing of all the different hats. When we were first getting things going we spent all of our time out on the road. Our first year touring in 2019, when we got back from that tour we were booking the next one. </p>
<p>Myk: Yeah, definitely. We would be out playing one after the next and the next thing you know, two years had gone by. We went from playing 8 people's shows and then, hey we have 28... laughing. then Theory happened and we went whoa ... to every show sold out on big stages. It happened really quickly.</p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">That had to have been a huge shock. I know that when you start out doing the smaller clubs and bar scene you get a real good feel if the sound you have is working. Did you guys know right away that you guys were that good with the response of the crowds?</span></p>
<p>Jordan: That isn't up to us. That is up to the fans and whether they were cool with what we were playing. We opened with the same song during the tour and it seemed to grasp a lot of fans right away. It didn't seem to matter what the age difference was, that song everyone seemed to really like. We didn't have a lot of songs that we had done so we would play shortlists set of 5 songs so we just had to put it out there and give it all we had.</p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">It really shows how much hard work does really pay off doing that grind and playing as many places as your can and as hard as you can. Then you guys a thrown into a 21-day tour with Theory to sold-out crowds. From a smaller stage to a big stage for the first time must have been nerve-wracking as hell? Were you guys worried about not having a big setlist?</span></p>
<p>Myk: Well actually, I don't think it really changes from one stage to the next. I don't think that any band doesn't get nervous before going out. I think everyone has stage fright. It's something that you don't quite get over I think. Leading up to that Theory tour we thought, let's just grind it hard an entire month beforehand and just practice. We would practice the song each three times a day. Then we drove out to Vancouver for our first appearance on stage and then we would go, ''Oh my God'' then we just figured we are here and this is what we are going to do. We are going to hit it hard and make sure the songs we have are done the way we want and play as we like to play. </p>
<p><strong>Band Questions:</strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">Your journey as a musician and when you got bitten by the bug when you know you wanted to take this from a hobby into a full-time musician</span> </p>
<p>We all got our start in high school - and that bug bite has been itching ever since! </p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">How difficult has it been navigating the music industry and how the pandemic has affected your creativity and songwriting?</span> </p>
<p>The music industry was shut down like everything else, and will probably be the last thing to re-open, so we’re sitting tight. However, we’ve used our time away from live-performing to write songs that we’ve recently released and are planning on releasing in the future. </p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">What have been the biggest challenges that you have faced this past year and even now with the pandemic and looking ahead when businesses start opening up and getting back to business for professional musicians?</span> </p>
<p>This whole experience was very testing, very trying. Obviously us not being able to perform live was a big challenge, and we’re glad to see that the remaining business is starting to open their doors again! </p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">Where do you get your inspiration from – do you pull from your own personal experiences or things you hear or observe throughout your life, where does the inspiration come from? </span></p>
<p>I think we all write based off the everyday events that we witness. Sometimes our songs are inspired by news headlines, sometimes they are inspired by a train of thought! </p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">Looking at the music industry today in comparison to a decade ago, no borders today for Canadian artists or musicians. What have the digital and streaming platforms meant to you with your music and the reach you now have? </span></p>
<p>Streaming has meant that we’ve been able to connect with a global audience without having to spread our wings or put our life vests on! </p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">The impact that no borders have on the artist or group being able to make it on their own is really incredible. It is so hard to support yourself as a musician grinding out your music, marketing, producing, promoting it, etc... possibilities as an independent artist/group that hasn't been easy to do before without a label?</span></p>
<p>As independent artists, we enjoy complete artistic freedom and direction for where we want to take the band! </p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">How much of an impact has social media played in your career with all the capability to reach a much bigger audience with streaming platforms, FB, Twitter, Instagram, Tik Tok around the world. Airplay streaming awards and now the awards …</span> </p>
<p>Social media is a complicated algorithm that still stumps us! </p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">What inspired the song or album? </span></p>
<p>The new tracks on this album were entirely written during the pandemic and were inspired by our various life experiences over the last few months. </p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">How has the feedback been after releasing your new music? </span></p>
<p>So far so good! We’ve gotten a lot of positive responses on the songs and are excited to see <strong>Unnecessary Evil</strong> start to creep up the charts! </p>
<p><strong>Burning Questions Portion of the Show:</strong> </p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">Outside of music, what are your hobbies, things you like to do to unplug from the world? </span></p>
<p>Tal: Lifting, holding, putting down </p>
<p>Myk: Video game collecting, auto sport, playing shitty punk music. </p>
<p>Jordan: Video games, cooking, and drinking craft beer! </p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">What’s your favorite food, what do you like to eat, what’s the holy grail for you?</span> </p>
<p>T:Lasagna and “My Cookie Dealer"! </p>
<p>M: Fish and Chips with a bottle of Keiths! </p>
<p>J: Pasta! </p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">Favorite song of all time? </span></p>
<p>T: Sleep Walk - Santo & Johnny </p>
<p>M: Blue Sky - The Allman Brothers </p>
<p>J: You Could Be Mine - Guns N’ Roses </p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">Favorite lyrics of all time? </span></p>
<p>T: “……………………………..” - Sleep Walk - Santos & Johnny </p>
<p>M: “I like my sugar with coffee and cream” - Intergalactic - The Beastie Boys </p>
<p>J: “Your next ex-lover will discover how your mother fucked you up.” Hard to Love - The Trews </p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">Dream destination – bucket list vacation? </span></p>
<p>T: Amsterdam </p>
<p>M: Japan </p>
<p>J: Scotland </p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">The holy grail to partner in a duet or collaboration? </span></p>
<p>T: Jordan Welbourne </p>
<p>M: Tallus Scott </p>
<p>J: Myk Ulan-Hohol </p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">What have you been binge-watching this past year? </span></p>
<p>T: Married… With Children </p>
<p>M: Formula 1: Drive to Survive </p>
<p>J: Buffy the Vampire Slayer </p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">First concert ticket your ever bought? </span></p>
<p>T: Marilyn Manson </p>
<p>M: Anthrax </p>
<p>J: Slipknot </p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">The best part about being a musician? </span></p>
<p>T: Watching everyone around you grow up. </p>
<p>M: Getting payed in beer </p>
<p>J: Truck stop showers. </p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">Favorite characteristic about yourself? </span></p>
<p>T: I try not to take myself too seriously. </p>
<p>M: I also don’t take him too seriously. </p>
<p>J: I also don’t take them too seriously. </p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">What is the biggest misconception about being a musician – people think you have this glamour’s life about being a musician out on tour, lots of money, they don’t realize the grind it takes to make it in this business, the blood sweat, and tears that go into making it? </span></p>
<p>Did we mention the TRUCK STOP SHOWERS? </p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">Artist/Group Attention is the new currency, it used to be talent and it has now become a dance between attention and talent. What are the challenges you face…</span> </p>
<p>We try not to focus on that, and just try to make good music that our fans will enjoy!</p>

<p>Jason Blaine's brand new single "<a contents="When I See You" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/album/go-with-me-ep/1533293085"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>When I See You</strong></span></a>" is off his acclaimed EP - "<a contents="Go With Me" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/album/go-with-me-ep/1533293085"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Go With Me</strong></span></a>" which was released last October. It has now collectively racked up nearly <strong>1.5 million</strong> global streams since its release. The song's infectious guitar riff and vibrant, detailed lyrics paint a picture of a fun kind of love that is the kind of groove we are all needing to feel during these tough times. You can just hear this song coming through the speakers at a festival and it's sure to stay with your listeners long after their first listen! </p>
<p>A multiple <strong>CCMA</strong>, <strong>SOCAN</strong> & <strong>CMAO</strong> award winner with over 20+ radio hits, six full-length albums, and over 10 million digital streams, Jason still feels like he’s just getting started. Writing full-time within Nashville’s publishing community, Jason resides in Hendersonville, Tennessee with his wife Amy and their four children. In 2019, the next chapter of Jason's career began as he started work on "<a contents="Go With Me" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/album/go-with-me-ep/1533293085"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Go With Me</strong></span></a>", which was produced by <strong>Danick Dupelle</strong> (Emerson Drive, Tebey). The project breathes new life while lending itself to what Jason does best; great country music performed by one of Canada’s most distinctive voices, telling stories of home, love, and nights on the town. As a craftsman of songs, Jason found and wrote songs for the project which embody his artistry and move him into the next season of his career. </p>
<p>''<a contents="Jason Blaine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.jasonblaine.ca/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Jason Blaine</strong></span></a> keeps bringing us hit after hit and ''When I See You'' is one of my favorite songs yet,'' says <a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>Kim Cyr</strong></span></a>, Editor in Chief of <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a> and host of the International <a contents="Music's Journey Podcast" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.musicsjourney.com"><span style="color:#3300ff;"><strong>Music's Journey Podcast</strong></span></a>.'' </p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">I know you have been busy writing your new music and so many other artists during COVID. What has been the silver lining for you throughout this past year and a half?</span> </p>
<p>Time with family has been really great. I have been busy recording new music. I have been working on some new stuff, some new recordings that look like it's going to turn into an album. There are seven songs so far for this new EP I am working on. It's going to be nothing like what I have done for you all. Unless you know me, you might know this type of music I really love. I can't say it is completely country either or maybe it's more country perhaps. </p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">I love the stripped-down version of the songwriter feel of the classic country music. Is that what you are doing with your new music?</span> </p>
<p>I think it is more along the lines of what Chris Stapleton is putting out there. The way we recorded this EP is with not a lot of stuff going on. It is Chris Stapleton's kind of feel. It's the kind of music that I love with only four instruments like bass, drums, guitar, organ or keyboard. </p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">I love Chris Stapleton and all his music. It is cool that he has brought back classic country to a new generation of country fans. It's really great.</span> </p>
<p>Yeah, there is nothing modern about it. It's just classic country and the fans love it. In fact, they went out of their way to make it organic and real that you would hear throughout the decades with influences from older country to Americana to blues to rock or southern rock. I just love that stuff. I have loved that style of country for a very very long time. I love the artists like Vince Gill forever and ever. People that know me know that I talk about Vince Gill all the time. I also like the records that John Mayer has made as far back as 2013 like Paradise Valley. Those records sound like bluesy country music. </p>
<p><span style="color:#e74c3c;">I love that type of show where it feels like you are one on one with the artist. I am the first in line for artists like Vince Gill and Chris Stapleton.</span> </p>
<p>I am hoping to come back on here and talk to you some more about the new music that I am set to release in the next month or two. </p>

<p>With a deeply soulful voice and wisdom far beyond her years,<span style="color:#ffcccc;"> </span><a contents="KAIYA" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://kaiyasmusic.com"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>KAIYA</strong></span></a> is a pop singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist based in Calgary, Alberta. Her music has been described as a beacon of light, containing an undeniable message of empowerment, positivity, and hope. </p>
<p>On March 8, 2021 (<strong>International Women's Day</strong>), <a contents="KAIYA" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://kaiyasmusic.com"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>KAIYA</strong></span></a> was honored among the Top 3 in the <strong>Women's Freedom Song</strong> contest, for her debut single, "<a contents="Speak Out" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://smarturl.it/speak-out"><span style="color:#9966ff;"><strong>Speak Out</strong></span></a>." The track was released in December of 2020 and premiered on <strong>CBC</strong> radio. It has since been receiving radio play on several Alberta community and college radio stations. </p>
<p><a contents="KAIYA" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://kaiyasmusic.com"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>KAIYA</strong></span></a> is an actively philanthropic artist, who regularly performs in support of charitable causes. At only 14 years old, she has already performed for thousands of people, at over 40 high-profile events. In the words of producer <strong>Justin Kudding</strong>, “Standing for something and reflecting it in your actions aren’t always aligned. In <a contents="KAIYA" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://kaiyasmusic.com"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>KAIYA</strong></span></a>, however, there’s a perfect synergy between belief and action. She is the perfect antidote to a world where young people are typically burdened with far too much for their age. In this atmosphere of unrealistic expectations, pressure to conform, and a lack of genuine connection, KAIYA’s music seems to ease the burden of youths as they transition into young adults. It doesn’t take an exceptional ability to perceive that <a contents="KAIYA" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://kaiyasmusic.com"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>KAIYA</strong></span></a> lives to bring hope and positivity to a demographic that sorely needs it.” </p>
<p>KAIYA’s performance highlights include opening for <strong>Brett Kissel</strong> at the <strong>2018</strong> and <strong>2019</strong> <strong>#OMGP</strong> <strong>(Oh My GardenParty)</strong> in support of adolescent mental health. <a contents="KAIYA" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://kaiyasmusic.com"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>KAIYA</strong></span></a> performed at <strong>Paul Brandt’s 2018 Prairie Rowdy Concert</strong> in support of the <strong>#NotInMyCity</strong> initiative, and with <strong>Brett Kissel</strong> at his <strong>2018</strong> and <strong>2019</strong> <strong>Christmas</strong> charity concerts in support of veterans, at the <strong>Jack Singer Concert Hall</strong> in Calgary. <a contents="KAIYA" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://kaiyasmusic.com"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>KAIYA</strong></span></a> was the headline event at <strong>Hayley Wickenheiser’s Wickfest 2019</strong> in Calgary and <strong>Wickfest 2020</strong> in BC. In 2019, <a contents="KAYIA" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://kaiyasmusic.com"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>KAYIA</strong></span></a> was honored with the <strong>Women of Inspiration Youth Excellence Award</strong>, for her work in music and philanthropy. </p>
<p><strong>JUNO</strong> award-winning artist, <strong>Brett Kissel</strong>, upon hearing '<a contents="Speak Out" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://smarturl.it/speak-out"><span style="color:#9966ff;"><strong>Speak Out</strong></span></a>' said "I am so excited for <a contents="KAIYA" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://kaiyasmusic.com"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>KAIYA</strong></span></a> to take on the world’s stage. When I first heard '<a contents="Speak Out" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://smarturl.it/speak-out"><span style="color:#9966ff;"><strong>Speak Out</strong></span></a>' I thought I was listening to a 25-year-old artist who has already won 2 Grammys.” </p>
<p>And taking on the world stage she is. <a contents="Kaiya" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://kaiyasmusic.com"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>Kaiya</strong></span></a>, along with <strong>JUNO</strong> award-winning <strong>Brett Kissel’s</strong> band and <strong>Sam Coulson</strong> of <strong>QUEEN’s</strong> “<strong>We Will Rock You</strong>” will be performing “<a contents="Kaiya Live" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://smarturl.it/speak-out"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>Kaiya Live</strong></span></a>”, a virtual concert event happening in the summer of 2021(postponed-stay tuned). </p>
<p>2021 will also see new releases from <a contents="Kaiya" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://kaiyasmusic.com"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>Kaiya</strong></span></a> as she heads back into <strong>OCL studios</strong> with producers <strong>Justin Kudding</strong> and <strong>Spencer Cheyne</strong>.</p>
<p><a contents="Speak Out" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://smarturl.it/speak-out"><span style="color:#9966ff;"><strong>Speak Out</strong></span></a>, an inspiring soulful pop ballad has a different meaning to everyone that listens, but the same astonishing impact. Written solely by <a contents="Kaiya" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://kaiyasmusic.com"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>Kaiya</strong></span></a>, <a contents="Speak Out" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://smarturl.it/speak-out"><span style="color:#9999ff;"><strong>Speak Out</strong></span></a> comes from the heart. </p>
<p>From inception to production, the single has been a long time in the works, but at just over 3 minutes 30 seconds, it won’t take long for a listener to resonate with the story <a contents="Kaiya" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://kaiyasmusic.com"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>Kaiya</strong></span></a> tells. </p>
<p><strong>Spencer Cheyne (JUNO Award Winning Producer) </strong></p>
<p>“I am quite inspired by <a contents="Kaiya" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://kaiyasmusic.com"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>Kaiya</strong></span></a>. She is an extremely hard-working person and usually, people who are that talented aren’t that hard-working and they usually just rely on their talent. What makes <a contents="Kaiya" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://kaiyasmusic.com"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>Kaiya</strong></span></a> so special is that she is that talented and she is also working hard which I think is a recipe for success and it is just a matter of time until things happen” </p>
<p><strong>Brendan Waters (CCMA Award winner) </strong></p>
<p>“What excites me about <a contents="Kaiya" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://kaiyasmusic.com"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>Kaiya</strong></span></a> is that there are certain things that are really hard to teach, or that you can’t experience your way into being good at them. They are a little more innate. She has so much of that. It is fun to be a part of that and work with people like that.” </p>
<p><strong>Hayley Wickenheiser (Multiple Olympic Gold Medalist and soon to be a doctor) </strong></p>
<p>“<a contents="Kaiya" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://kaiyasmusic.com"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>Kaiya</strong></span></a> reminds me of a young <strong>Lady Gaga</strong> with her power and control.” </p>
<p>''<a contents="Kaiya" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://kaiyasmusic.com"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>Kaiya</strong></span></a> is undeniably a force to be reckoned with in the music industry today and for years to come,'' says <a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>Kim Cyr</strong></span></a>, Editor in Chief for <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a> and host for the International <a contents="Music's Journey Podcast" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.musicsjourney.com"><span style="color:#3300ff;"><strong>Music's Journey Podcast</strong></span></a>.

<p>Montreal-based Folk- Pop Artist singer-songwriter <a contents="Oliver Charles" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.olivercharlesofficial.com/"><span style="color:#ffcc00;"><strong>Oliver Charles</strong></span></a> has been working on developing his singing and writing abilities over the past several years. He has been in the studio for the past 2-3 years. </p>
<p>Coming from a musical family, Charles discovered his passion for music in his teens, teaching himself to play piano and the guitar and taking inspiration from artists such as <strong>Jack Johnson</strong>, <strong>Billy Joel</strong>, <strong>Rufus Wainwright</strong>, <strong>Josh Groban</strong>, and <strong>Ed Sheeran</strong>. </p>
<p>After perfecting his sound, Oliver released a handful of singles including “<a contents="Follow Me" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/oliver-charles/193505282"><span style="color:#cccc00;"><strong>Follow Me</strong></span></a>” in 2017 which peaked at #3 and was named “<a contents="Hit of The Week" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/oliver-charles/193505282"><span style="color:#cccc00;"><strong>Hit of The Week</strong></span></a>” on the Quebec English charts. Charles continued to release singles “<a contents="Waiting for My Call" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/oliver-charles/193505282"><span style="color:#cccc00;"><strong>Waiting for My Call</strong></span></a>,” “<a contents="Hypnotizing" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/oliver-charles/193505282"><span style="color:#cccc00;"><strong>Hypnotizing</strong></span></a>,” and “<a contents="Will I See You Again" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/oliver-charles/193505282"><span style="color:#cccc00;"><strong>Will I See You Again</strong></span></a>,” reaching over <strong>1 million</strong> combined digital streams. </p>
<p>After an intense period of writing and recording alongside the well-respected producers <strong>The Grand Brothers</strong> (Pascale Picard, Kevin Parent, Bran Van 3000), Charles is getting prepared to release his debut album in 2021. </p>
<p>I had the opportunity to chat with <a contents="Oliver Charles" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.olivercharlesofficial.com/"><span style="color:#ffcc00;"><strong>Oliver Charles</strong></span></a> about his latest single “<a contents="Let Go Of My Ghosts" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://smarturl.it/letgoofmyghosts"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Let Go Of My Ghosts</strong></span></a>”, music industry challenges, and what’s next. </p>
<p>'<a contents="Let Go of My Ghosts" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://smarturl.it/letgoofmyghosts"><strong><span style="color:#cc9900;">L</span></strong></a><strong><a contents="Let Go of My Ghosts" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://smarturl.it/letgoofmyghosts"><span style="color:#cc9900;">et Go of My Ghosts</span></a></strong> is a pop-folk-infused tune about the attempt to overcome trust issues after an emotional breakup and having the faith to love again. When past experiences outweigh your optimism in romance, the process of falling in love again might uncover trust issues that simply discourage you from committing to someone new.' </p>
<p>'<a contents="Oliver Charles" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.olivercharlesofficial.com/"><span style="color:#ffcc00;"><strong>Oliver Charles</strong></span></a> has a vision that is absolutely beautiful within his artistry with a heart bigger than life and that is what I admire about him and his music,'' says <a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https:///www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>Kim Cyr</strong></span></a>, Editor in Chief of <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https:///www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a> and host of the International <a contents="Music's Journey Podcast" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.musicsjourney.com"><span style="color:#3300ff;"><strong>Music's Journey Podcast</strong></span></a>. 'Charles has the ability to tap into his soul and really feel with his heart and that is what makes him special with the music he writes. The folk singer-songwriter style of writing allows the listener to emotionally go along the journey he takes you on by exposing that raw vulnerability in real-life situations. I get everything he writes. It was my pleasure to get to know Charles and see the bright light that he shines upon us all. Check out my interview with this rising star.' Click the link below. </p>

<p>“I wanted to really incorporate a sci-fi feel for this song, and initially my original idea was pretty far out there. I have always had a fascination with space and the “unknown,” says Doucette. “The lyrics in this song felt like they could be coming from someone that’s never felt a human body, that desire, that want, the craving.”</p>

<p><strong>What made you want to get into music? </strong></p>
<p>''I have always been an artist'', says Doucette. ''I started writing when I was six years old however, what was prevalent was the modeling career. That is what drove me more and put me in the public eye as for the career part. As far as my artistry, I have always loved music and I always was composing music. It was all about timing and when I was ready to show people that other part of myself. Modeling just played a role first because I was really good at it as a career in that moment of my life. Artistry is a very intimate, personal side of yourself and that takes time to master. '' </p>
<p>''I was singing and songwriting at a very early age. My father was a musician and so it was a natural progression for me. It was nice sharing that passion and love of music with him. Over the last ten years, I have really been concentrating on honing in on my craft as a songwriter and what I wanted to share with people. It has been a really fun process and this year I have a lot of music that I am going to be releasing. There are some new and some old.'' </p>
<p><strong>What's your favorite musical memory? </strong></p>
<p>My dad played every kind of music but he loved his rock and roll. Honestly, our place was always full of music and full of instruments. He took me to my first concert when I was ten or eleven. I saw <strong>Amanda Marshall</strong>. For her to be my first real concert was empowering to see. To see a woman perform like that I knew that is what I wanted to do. She captivated the audience and told her story leaving her heart on that stage. She was definitely my influence for sure. I love singing soul and R & B like <strong>Alicia Keys</strong> because I love to play piano as well. They really helped shape me into the artist I want to be.'' </p>

<p>It has no doubt been a while since you have heard any new music from <strong>JUNO Award-nominated</strong> and <strong>multi-Platinum</strong>, Edmonton, AB-based pop band, <a contents="Stereos" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://wearestereos.net/"><span style="color:#3366cc;"><strong>Stereos</strong></span></a>. </p>
<p>The <strong>MuchMusic</strong> fan favorites are releasing their new single “<a contents="Look Good" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/look-good-single/1567630279"><span style="color:#c0392b;"><strong>Look Good</strong></span></a>” on June 10, 2021, via all streaming platforms. Released 12 years after the band’s first single ‘<a contents="Summer Girl" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6TMtMBhcyfl7kY8eocOmpo?si=XHdDrGIxTnWXNRoex8E4uw&nd=1"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Summer Girl</strong></span></a>’, the band was inspired by the pandemic and their personal lives which they turned into an upbeat pop song that will be the anthem for summer 2021. </p>
<p>Said lead vocalist <a contents="Patrick Kordyback" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://wearestereos.net/"><span style="color:#3366cc;"><strong>Patrick Kordyback</strong></span></a>, “everyone who hears ‘<a contents="Look Good" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/look-good-single/1567630279"><span style="color:#c0392b;"><strong>Look Good</strong></span></a>’ will go, ‘yes, it’s a song for the summer.’ It’s an upbeat pop tune. However, when we wrote that song with my buddy, <strong>Dan Davidson</strong>, he had the idea where the chorus was ‘damn you look good’ – kind of a ‘picking someone up’ song, but because of everything we were going through we said, ‘No, let’s make it the flip side of that – let’s make it about self-love in the face of situations that make it difficult to feel good about yourself. Let’s make it about being happy with yourself no matter what.” </p>
<p>“<a contents="Look Good" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/look-good-single/1567630279"><span style="color:#c0392b;"><strong>Look Good</strong></span></a>” comes after the latest track “<strong><span style="color:#1abc9c;">S</span><a contents="unset Gold" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6TMtMBhcyfl7kY8eocOmpo?si=XHdDrGIxTnWXNRoex8E4uw&nd=1"><span style="color:#1abc9c;">unset Gold</span></a></strong>” which was released quietly in February 2020. “<a contents="Sunset Gold" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6TMtMBhcyfl7kY8eocOmpo?si=XHdDrGIxTnWXNRoex8E4uw&nd=1"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Sunset Gold</strong></span></a>'' is a pulsing pop song that has paved the way for <a contents="Stereos" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://wearestereos.net/"><span style="color:#3366cc;"><strong>Stereos</strong></span></a> to introduce their new direction in music. Although the song may sound like a love-tune to fans, Kordyback wrote this song about the band getting back together. When it comes to the lyrics of their upcoming single “<a contents="Look Good" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/look-good-single/1567630279"><span style="color:#3366cc;"><strong>Look Good</strong></span></a>”, each member has a different meaning to the song as it represents how the band feels and the troubles they have experienced throughout this past year. </p>
<p>Founded in Edmonton, Alberta in 2006, <a contents="Stereos" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://wearestereos.net/"><span style="color:#3366cc;"><strong>Stereos</strong></span></a> first gained notoriety after appearing on the <strong>MuchMusic</strong> original series, <strong>disBAND</strong>. Following the release of their self-titled, debut album their popularity exploded. On the strength of singles like ‘<a contents="Summer Girl" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6TMtMBhcyfl7kY8eocOmpo?si=XHdDrGIxTnWXNRoex8E4uw&nd=1"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Summer Girl</strong></span></a>’ (<strong>3XPlatinum</strong>) ‘<a contents="Throw Ya Hands Up" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6TMtMBhcyfl7kY8eocOmpo?si=XHdDrGIxTnWXNRoex8E4uw&nd=1"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Throw Ya Hands Up</strong></span></a>’ (<strong>2XPlatinum</strong>) and ‘<a contents="Turn It Up" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6TMtMBhcyfl7kY8eocOmpo?si=XHdDrGIxTnWXNRoex8E4uw&nd=1"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Turn It Up</strong></span></a>’ (<strong>Platinum</strong>), the band began touring relentlessly and ultimately racked up <strong>JUNO Award nominations</strong> for <strong>Best New Artist</strong> and <strong>Best Pop Album</strong> in 2010. </p>
<p>''<a contents="Stereos" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://wearestereos.net/"><span style="color:#3366cc;"><strong>Stereos</strong></span></a> are back and better than ever with their new single '<a contents="Look Good" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/look-good-single/1567630279"><span style="color:#c0392b;"><strong>Look Good</strong></span></a>', says <a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>Kim Cyr</strong></span></a>, Editor in Chief for <strong><a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;">NOW and THEN Magazine</span></a> </strong>and host of the International <a contents="Music's Journey Podcast" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.musicsjourney.com"><span style="color:#3300ff;"><strong>Music's Journey Podcast</strong></span></a>. ''This song has such a positive message emphasizing the importance of having your own voice and your own place in this world especially during these difficult times that the world is facing right now. The loss of identity is a challenge that so many are struggling with today and this was an opportunity to show unity and acceptance of one another in the lyrics of this song. It's ok to be different and to allow yourself to be comfortable in your own skin and living your life as authentically as you chose. This is a powerful message that '<a contents="Look Good" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/look-good-single/1567630279"><span style="color:#3366cc;"><strong>Look Good</strong></span></a>' stands for. There is nothing more perfect in the visual representation for the <a contents="#LookGood" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/look-good-single/1567630279"><span style="color:#c0392b;"><strong>#LookGood</strong></span></a> single cover, featuring the amazing <strong>Aurora Matrix</strong> and shot by Stereos good friend <strong>LeeZavitz</strong>.'' </p>
<p>''I had an amazing chat with <a contents="Pat Kordyback" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://wearestereos.net/"><span style="color:#3366cc;"><strong>Pat Kordyback</strong></span></a> that left me feeling like no time has passed at all,'' says Cyr. ''The pop group will always and forever have their identity as pop royalty in the Canadian music landscape. The music industry platform has changed a great deal since <strong>MuchMusic</strong> being the source for fans to watch and hear new music. The digital age and streaming platforms evolved allowing fans to hear music in different cultures and countries that they may have never heard before. Kordyback shares the challenges and the silver lining coming back from their hiatus.''</p>

<p>Alberta’s country sensation <a contents="Dan Davidson" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.dandavidsonmusic.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;"><strong>Dan Davidson</strong></span></a> has created undeniable momentum in the last few years. With <strong>6</strong> <strong>CCMA nominations</strong>, <strong>10 ACMA awards</strong>, a <strong>gold record</strong>, a <strong>number 1 selling Canadian song</strong> and record, <strong>top 20 charting numbers</strong> and hundreds of performances – it's easy to forget that he is still independent. </p>
<p>Dan exploded onto the Canadian country scene in 2016 with the release of his second single “<a contents="Found" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/3Av6JdBs0MuhIPnCqPg6EI?autoplay=true"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Found</strong></span></a>” (Co-written by <a contents="Clayton Bellamy of The Road Hammers" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.theroadhammers.com/"><span style="color:#33cccc;"><strong>Clayton Bellamy of The Road Hammers</strong></span></a>). Dan became arguably the indie story of 2016/2017 as his single “<a contents="Found" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/3Av6JdBs0MuhIPnCqPg6EI?autoplay=true"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Found</strong></span></a>” rocketed up the charts and he became the #1 charting indie artist in Canada. It was also the #1 selling Canadian country song for several weeks in July and August 2016. On just his second release ever in country music – he has a <strong>GOLD single</strong>. The following singles helped further his momentum with more top 20 recognition and solidified his name as an artist on the rise – definitely someone to watch as he nears his first platinum record. </p>
<p>Dan is only 5 years into his country career but is far from “green” in the music industry. He spent over 10 years playing in the well-known Canadian indie rock band <strong>Tupelo Honey</strong> (who had several top 40 hits, <strong>top-selling iTunes records</strong> and toured with bands like <strong>Bon Jovi</strong>). </p>
<p>Dan’s country sound came together as he started writing and working on music with Toronto's <a contents="Award-Winning Producer&nbsp;Jeff Dalziel" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.sharp9music.com/producer-management-2"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Award-Winning Producer</strong> <strong>Jeff Dalziel</strong></span></a> (Washboard Union, River Town Saints, Autumn Hill, Brett Kissel) and the two spent the better part of a year developing an EP that’s characteristic of Dan’s love of “good time” music. Those “good time” vibes are also a huge part of his personality. </p>
<p>One view of his music videos and you will understand that the fun, sincere energy Dan brings to country music is truly unique. The video for “<a contents="Found" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/3Av6JdBs0MuhIPnCqPg6EI"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Found</strong></span></a>” cost only $500 and yet somehow it was <strong>top 20 on CMT</strong>; the video for “<a contents="Barn Burner" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/3Av6JdBs0MuhIPnCqPg6EI"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Barn Burner</strong></span></a>” involved Dan dressing up as a mixture between John Wayne and Elton John, wandering the streets of Tokyo; and of course we can't forget “<a contents="Say We Did" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/3Av6JdBs0MuhIPnCqPg6EI"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Say We Did</strong></span></a>”, which shows Dan converting his garage into a cardboard version Star Ship Enterprise. </p>
<p>Expanding his fan base internationally, Dan played shows in Beijing, China and Tours, France. He then went on to play in Milan and Budapest to film a music video for his upcoming single “<a contents="These Are My People" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/3Av6JdBs0MuhIPnCqPg6EI"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>These Are My People</strong></span></a>”. The idea for the music video came about when Dan discovered on YouTube that people from all over the world are line dancing to his songs. He has now played over 200 shows across 7 countries (including a record-breaking 120 show tour with <strong>Brett Kissel</strong> on the most extensive tour in Canadian history). </p>
<p>While on tour with <strong>Brett Kissel</strong> in 2019, Dan’s EP “<a contents="Juliet" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/3Av6JdBs0MuhIPnCqPg6EI"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Juliet</strong></span></a>” was released, and debuted at #1 on the Canadian <strong>iTunes Country</strong> charts. The album was later nominated for <strong>Roots Album Of The Year</strong> at the <strong>2019 CCMA</strong>, and was the album that won for “<strong>Producer of the Year</strong>”. </p>
<p>Truly embodying the indie spirit, you’ll never find Dan just waiting on his laurels. When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, he created and hosted Canada’s FIRST live digital music festival “<strong>Diesel Bird Fest</strong>”, which featured some of Canada’s top artists including Dallas Smith, Corb Lund, and many more. Diesel Bird successfully raised $54,000 for charity. He then went on to create and host Canada’s first hotel music festival (Diesel Bird Hotel Fest) which sold out in 1 day. </p>
<p>Recently Dan has been writing for/with <strong>Gord Bamford</strong>, <strong>Tim Hicks</strong>, <strong>W3apons</strong>, <strong>The Congregation</strong>, <strong>Chad Brownlee</strong>, <strong>The Standstills</strong>, and so many more. As a songwriter, he has had top 40 songs in 3 genres now and continues to keep the creative momentum rolling alongside his artist career. </p>
<p>''<strong><a contents="Dan Davidson" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.dandavidsonmusic.com/"><span style="color:#cc9900;">Dan Davidson</span></a>''</strong> undoubtedly is one of the best entertainers performing on the stage today,'' says <a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>Kim Cyr</strong></span></a>, Editor in Chief for <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine " data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong> </span></a>and host of the International <a contents="Music's Journey Podcast" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.musicsjourney.com"><span style="color:#3300ff;"><strong>Music's Journey Podcast</strong></span></a>. Dan knows how to write great music and he knows the music industry so it is no surprise to me that the country music scene saw what we all heard and knew he was in the rock band <strong>Tupelo Honey</strong>. Country music is such a great fit for him. He is a creative genius with his songwriting and a great producer himself. Dan can wear all the different hats and crank out the hits one after the next. One of the memories I have of meeting Dan in the <strong>Tupelo Honey</strong> era is his confidence as a performer and his genuine positive attitude that made it so much fun to be around him. He is a star and it does my soul good to see him killing it in Canadian country music. He is born to do this and he is only getting better and better.'' </p>

<p>Country music has always felt like home for <a contents="Elyse Saunders" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://elysesaunders.com/"><span style="color:#3399ff;"><strong>Elyse Saunders</strong></span></a>. From the dynamic stages of Toronto to the bright lights of Nashville, the Peterborough, Ontario native has followed a path of steadfast determination and artistic inspiration – regularly captivating crowds with her powerhouse vocals, engaging live show personality, and interactive charm. </p>
<p>Priding herself on being an artist who never stops, Elyse discovered a passion for music early on when she met her first mentor, producer/songwriter <strong>Cyril Rawson</strong> (Keith Urban, Gretchen Wilson). After recording her debut self-titled album with him in Nashville, she released a string of singles to Canadian radio and showcased her music during an opening spot for <strong>ACM</strong> artist <strong>Deric Ruttan</strong> in front of 10,000 attendees. </p>
<p>On stage, she’s performed at over 350 shows with industry showcases like <strong>Canadian Country Music Week</strong>, <strong>Indie Week</strong>, and 2019’s <strong>Canadian Music Week</strong> with <strong>Nice Horse</strong>, <strong>Kira Isabella</strong>, & <strong>David James</strong>. She also rocked 2019’s <strong>Powassan’s Smoke ‘N’ Spurs</strong> ahead of <strong>Eric Ethridge</strong> and <strong>The Washboard Union</strong>, and opened for <strong>Terri Clark</strong> and <strong>Jason Aldean</strong> at <strong>Sunfest</strong>.

The single continues to build momentum today with an upcoming television placement at the <strong>2020 Summer Olympics</strong>. Her 2019 release “<a contents="Feel You Leaving" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1jsGKKtfTZM5XBlT9EhFOk"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Feel You Leaving</strong></span></a>” was selected as a semi-finalist for the <strong>International Songwriters Competition</strong> out of 19,000 submissions globally. </p>
<p>After a series of songwriting trips in Nashville and new recordings in BC with acclaimed producers <strong>Dan Swinimer</strong>, <strong>Paul Shatto</strong>, and <strong>David Wills</strong>, <a contents="Elyse Saunders" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://elysesaunders.com/"><span style="color:#3399ff;"><strong>Elyse Saunders</strong></span></a> released “<a contents="Free”" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1jsGKKtfTZM5XBlT9EhFOk"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Free</strong>”</span></a> in the summer of 2020, the first single and title track from her next album. “<a contents="Free" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1jsGKKtfTZM5XBlT9EhFOk"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Free</strong></span></a>” (produced by <strong>CCMA nominee Dan Swinimer</strong>) marked her successful re-entry into the Canadian radio market which included <strong>CBC Country/Sirius XM</strong> and “<strong>Wild & Free Jamboree</strong>” – a Facebook live concert presented by KX Country FM.

<p>“<a contents="Wine Down" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1jsGKKtfTZM5XBlT9EhFOk"><span style="color:#1abc9c;"><strong>Wine Down</strong></span></a>” was the opening single of 2021 and was a shining light on Elyse's crafty songwriting and stunning vocals.

<p>Alberta’s <a contents="Renegade Station" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://renegadestationmusic.com/"><span style="color:#cccc00;"><strong>Renegade Station</strong></span></a> has embarked on a dynamic musical journey that sees the talented quartet elevating their already impressive reputation for creative excellence and superior showmanship to new heights. </p>
<p>Understanding that sometimes you need to shed elements of your past in order to embrace the wide, wonderful future, the group has revitalized and focused on their musical identity. They have pushed forward with a passion, and unrelenting drive that will see <a contents="Renegade Station" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://renegadestationmusic.com/"><span style="color:#cccc00;"><strong>Renegade Station</strong></span></a> become a name that anyone hearing their unique pop and rock-infused brand of country music is unlikely to forget. </p>
<p>The band came together after meeting and see each other perform at numerous events in their local area. They immediately connected and the band was formed. As they continued on their musical journey together, not only as a band but in friendship too, they became the “go to” group for numerous events across Alberta. Their harmonious energy became contagious among anyone that attended the events. “We just gelled as musicians and our voices harmonized so well together that we all just felt we needed to do more. So, we acquired ourselves a professional manager and began recording some originals and some songs that were pitched by incredible writers to us,” said Luanne. </p>
<p>Their name is symbolic of the group’s unconventional approach to their music and sense of independence. They are unabashed about injecting their original music and the songs presented to them by other noted songwriters with healthy doses of pop and classic rock nuances – with a focus on lushly produced and beautiful layered vocal harmonies which owe as much to Fleetwood Mac as they do to Lady A. </p>
<p>The “Station” part of their name is a nod to the vintage working steam train that is a tourist attraction in <strong>Stettler</strong> and which is a throwback to the region’s pioneering past. Therefore, a name that is reverent towards tradition, but which also alludes to a desire to go one’s own way is ideal for the band as they approach their craft. </p>
<p>As proof of Renegade Station’s commitment to excellence, for the recordings, they worked with respected industry veteran <strong>Johnny Gasparic</strong> at Dave Temple’s <a contents="MCC Recording Studio" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://mccrecording.com/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>MCC Recording Studio</strong></span></a> in Calgary. “We collaborated a lot on the production side which is awesome. Johnny brings an amazing background and experience with him. He knows that we are very much a vocal band and a harmony band, and he really helps to emphasize our vocals. </p>
<p>The lead-off hit single, <a contents="Who’s Gonna Love Me Tonight" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1JCmZN0xpnrFC8bsjIUAdh?autoplay=true"><span style="color:#00cc99;"><strong>Who’s Gonna Love Me Tonight</strong></span></a>, from the album ‘<a contents="Along for the Ride" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1JCmZN0xpnrFC8bsjIUAdh?autoplay=true"><span style="color:#00cc99;"><strong>Along for the Ride</strong></span></a>’ fits into the more adventurous approach that is Renegade Station’s hallmark. Sung by Kent who shares lead vocal duties with Luanne, it’s a mature, somewhat saucy but very true-to-life take on modern romance. </p>
<p>“We were really drawn to the song at first because of the amazing harmonies, but then once we got a sense of the meaning and message we knew we had to record it. It’s a little different and a little more risqué than a traditional country romantic song. It’s not the normal ‘I love you and you love me’ song. It’s a little more mature and realistic. Who is going to go home with who? Who is the strong person in the song, and who is the one going to just give in to the temptation of the moment,” Luanne said. This single garnered the group numerous nominations, Top 50 on the charts and the <strong>ACMA</strong> (now Country Music Alberta) <strong>Single of the Year</strong> (2018). </p>
<p>They have since released favorites like: <a contents="Along for the Ride" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1JCmZN0xpnrFC8bsjIUAdh?autoplay=true"><span style="color:#00cc99;"><strong>Along for the Ride</strong></span></a>, <strong><span style="color:#00cc99;">D</span><a contents="on’t Hold Your Breath" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1JCmZN0xpnrFC8bsjIUAdh?autoplay=true"><span style="color:#00cc99;">on’t Hold Your Breath</span></a></strong> and <a contents="Safe Harbour" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1JCmZN0xpnrFC8bsjIUAdh?autoplay=true"><span style="color:#00cc99;"><strong>Safe Harbour</strong></span></a>, all garnering radio charting plays. </p>
<p>The rock-solid foundation that was built is not being shunted aside as the talented quartet moves forward. Renegade Station’s legacy is etched deep into the firmament of the western Canadian music scene and that can never be taken from them. In recent years they have won back-to-back <strong>Association of Country Music</strong> in Alberta, as <strong>Group of the Year</strong> (<strong>2015 and 2016</strong>) as well as the <strong>ACMA Fan’s Choice of the Year</strong> in 2015. They also garnered a <strong>CCMA nomination</strong> for songwriter of the year for their tune <a contents="2:15" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/1JCmZN0xpnrFC8bsjIUAdh?autoplay=true"><span style="color:#00cc99;"><strong>2:15</strong></span></a> and <strong>Luanne</strong> was also nominated for <strong>CCMA Bass Player of the Year</strong> for 2016. They have numerous nominations under their belt. </p>
<p>The band has shared the stage with a who’s who of Canadian and international country music luminaries, from <strong>George Canyon</strong> and <strong>Carolyn Dawn Johnson</strong> to <strong>David Lee Murphy</strong>, <strong>Emerson Drive</strong>, <strong>Bobby Wills</strong> and <strong>Trooper</strong>. </p>
<p><a contents="Renegade Station" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://renegadestationmusic.com/"><span style="color:#cccc00;"><strong>Renegade Station</strong></span></a> albums are a bold statement by a collection of talented musicians and songwriters that is infused with authenticity, impressive vocal performances and insistent melodies that will stick with you for days. </p>
<p>And with this impressive collection of new songs, a live show that never fails to enchant and entertain, and an unparalleled creative drive, <a contents="Renegade Station" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://renegadestationmusic.com/"><span style="color:#cccc00;"><strong>Renegade Station</strong></span></a> is truly poised to break through to a national and international stage.</p>

''Renegade Station's harmonious energy is contagious with their bold rock-infused songs we have all grown to love. They are the go-to group to play events right across the country. The group has won numerous awards and nominations across the board and they just keep delivering hit after hit. </p>
<p>''Renegade Station's latest release '<a contents="FREE FREE FREE" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/renegade-station/1304666094"><span style="color:#c0392b;"><strong>FREE FREE FREE</strong></span></a>' reminds us all that we’ve all been guilty of taking the little things in life for granted. We all focus on the “big” things (jobs, cars, houses, prestige, etc…) and lose perspective about what’s actually important. It is simple and eloquent in the way that the sentiment is expressed; it says it, without having to spell it out,'' says Cyr. </p>
<p>''There was so much fun and laughter during this interview and I will tell you this, ''No one should ever lay down and go to sleep anywhere that Kent might be present with a sharpy in his hand,'' says Cyr.

The bluesy, soulful sound of the song is uplifting in nature, making it a great tune to jam out to on the piano and I loved that while recording, I could really let loose on the vocals." </p>

<p>''ANNIKA’s ability to capture audiences comes from her refreshing authentic and often comedic personality that I just love from the moment I met her backstage at <strong>Boots and Hearts Music Festival</strong>. She delivers such a powerful vocal that is so engaging and entertaining at the same time. The audiences worldwide just love her as much as I do, ' says Cyr.

<p>''<a contents="Cross Parallel" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.crossparallelmusic.com/"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>Cross Parallel</strong></span></a> deliver the new country wedding song of the year with their new single '<a contents="Better With Time" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/cross-parallel/1454890448"><span style="color:#c0392b;"><strong>Better With Time</strong></span></a>,'' says <a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>Kim Cyr</strong></span></a>, Editor in Chief for <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a> and host of the International <a contents="Music's Journey Podcast" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.musicsjourney.com"><span style="color:#3300ff;"><strong>Music's Journey Podcast</strong></span></a>. ''It is great to hear such a beautiful love song that reminds us all that good things are in our reach during these tough times. We all need the message in this song reminding us all not to take the ones closest to us for granted. It's a story about that special kind of love that just gets better with time.''</p>
<p>''Danielle and Jordan have a chemistry and a connection that is just beautiful to see. Their harmonies are spot on with this amazing tune. I just love it. Danielle had it in her notes for ideas and one of the guys started jamming on a sweet-sounding riff he had. It was one of those writes that was just a blast and the song seemed to write itself. It really is about their relationship but I think it lends itself to other couples that stand the test of time.''</p>
<p>''They wrote this song with <strong>Derek Norsworthy</strong> and <strong>Brandon Green</strong>, very talented dudes! And they actually produced it themselves with the help of a very talented band and crew in <a contents="The Warehouse Studio" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.warehousestudio.com/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>The Warehouse Studio</strong></span></a> in Vancouver.''</p>
<p>''I had such a blast talking with Danielle and Jordan hearing about their special story,'' says Cyr. ''The hearts are flying all around. You can hear that connection in the song and the lyrics. These two are something special and they are both so talented. The sky is the limit for where Danielle and Jordan can take this duo in the music industry. They have everything it takes to make it onto that winning stage and I have no doubt they will.''</p>
<p>I had so many laughs with these two with the <strong>Burning Questions</strong> portion of the show.

<p><span style="color:#999999;"><em><strong>Heidi and Scott:</strong></em></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#999999;"><em>''When I went to Scott with the idea and some of the lyrics, it turned out to be a pretty easy write for us. We knew melodically and instrumentally the direction we wanted the song to take, in order to reflect the driving, gritty and passionate message.</em></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#7f8c8d;"><em>This song came from a place of reflecting on the often mundane and uninspired patterns we find ourselves in, whether in relationships, family, or our goals and bucket lists.</em></span></p>
<p><em><span style="color:#999999;">In the process of writing the song, it took on a very relationship-directed storyline. </span></em></p>

<p>If tragedy and overcoming adversity are the hallmarks of a good country song, the <a contents="River Town Saints" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://rivertownsaints.com/"><span style="color:#00cccc;"><strong>River Town Saints</strong></span></a> have earned their dirt road credibility.</p>
<p>Originally a 5 piece band from the Ottawa Valley, the <a contents="River Town Saints" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://rivertownsaints.com/"><span style="color:#00cccc;"><strong>River Town Saints</strong></span></a> have a lot to show for the last couple of years, including; millions of YouTube views and Spotify streams, a top 10 hit with their single, “<strong>Bonfire</strong>”, <strong>CCMA nominations</strong>, <strong>CMAO</strong> and <strong>Canadian Radio Music Awards</strong>, tours with Tim Hicks, Kip Moore and large-scale festivals. Known for their energetic live show, rich vocal harmonies, and good times, the Saints were just getting started. </p>
<p>When their original singer departed in 2018, and months later their bassist and best friend <a contents="Daniel Di Giacomo" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://rivertownsaints.com/"><span style="color:#00cccc;"><strong>Daniel Di Giacomo</strong></span></a> died tragically at 31, it would have been understandable to throw in the towel.</p>
<p>Not a chance.</p>
<p>The remaining members <a contents="Jeremy Bortot" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://rivertownsaints.com/"><span style="color:#00cccc;"><strong>Jeremy Bortot</strong></span></a>, <a contents="Chris McComb" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://rivertownsaints.com/"><span style="color:#00cccc;"><strong>Chris McComb</strong></span></a> and <a contents="Jordan Potvin" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://rivertownsaints.com/"><span style="color:#00cccc;"><strong>Jordan Potvin</strong></span></a> got to work writing songs and looking for a new lead singer. As fate would have it, newcomer <a contents="Chase Kasner" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://rivertownsaints.com/"><span style="color:#00cccc;"><strong>Chase Kasner</strong></span></a> fit the bill. Kasner hails from Kirkland Lake, Ontario, where he was raised in a large musical family. Country music runs deep in his blood, given his grandmother, <strong>Mary Bailey</strong> was an accomplished Canadian country singer, who also went on to discover and mentor <strong>Shania Twain</strong> early on in her career. Lifelong friend <a contents="Joe Patrois" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://rivertownsaints.com/"><span style="color:#00cccc;"><strong>Joe Patrois</strong></span></a> was the final piece to complete the group. An ally of the band since the beginning and a gifted bassist, it only made sense for Joe to humbly continue on in Dan’s place. </p>
<p>With a powerful, soulful new voice at the helm of the group, combined with a renewed determination to pick up where they left off, RTS is reborn, recharged, and ready.</p>
<p>“<a contents="Long Time Coming" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/long-time-coming-single/1557116924"><span style="color:#ffcc00;"><strong>Long Time Coming</strong></span></a>” was written by <a contents="River Town Saints" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://rivertownsaints.com/"><span style="color:#00cccc;"><strong>River Town Saints</strong></span></a> and multi-award winning artist, <a contents="Jason Blaine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.jasonblaine.ca/"><span style="color:#cccc00;"><strong>Jason Blaine</strong></span></a>. It is the perfect summertime anthem with those signature <a contents="River Town Saints" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://rivertownsaints.com/"><span style="color:#00cccc;"><strong>River Town Saints</strong></span></a> harmonies and catchy guitar riffs.'</p>
<p>''The <a contents="River Town Saints" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://rivertownsaints.com/"><span style="color:#00cccc;"><strong>River Town Saints</strong></span></a> are one of my favorite country groups today,'' says <a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#9900ff;"><strong>Kim Cyr</strong></span></a>, Editor in Chief for <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#9900ff;"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a> and host of the International <strong><a contents="Music's Journey Podcas" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.musicsjourney.com"><span style="color:#0000ff;">Music's Journey Podcas</span></a>t</strong>. ''It was such a pleasure speaking with <a contents="Chris McComb" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://rivertownsaints.com/"><span style="color:#00cccc;"><strong>Chris McComb</strong></span></a> and lead singer <a contents="Chase Kasner" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://rivertownsaints.com/"><span style="color:#00cccc;"><strong>Chase Kasner</strong></span></a> of the <a contents="River Town Saints" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://rivertownsaints.com/"><span style="color:#00cccc;"><strong>River Town Saints</strong></span></a>. I can't say enough about this group. They have really been through so much in the past few years but they never gave up their dream to write and perform great music. The new single '<a contents="Long Time Coming" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/river-town-saints/1042066461"><span style="color:#ffcc00;"><strong>Long Time Coming</strong></span></a>' is exactly the summer anthem we need right now. This is the perfect song to crank up in the car, on the beach, poolside, in the boat, or in the backyard with your closest family and friends,'' says Cyr.</p>
<p>''I have done so many interviews in my career and getting to know so many new artists on the music scene here in Canada is so much fun,'' says Cyr. ''Country music is such an amazing genre for so many reasons and the biggest one is the incredible country community. Canadian country artists will get on all their socials and platforms to give shoutouts and complete support for one another. I love it. The new artists are included in that tight-knit community very quickly.<strong> </strong>The one name that I hear more often for bands that support new artists is the<strong> </strong><a contents="River Town Saints" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://rivertownsaints.com/"><span style="color:#00cccc;"><strong>River Town Saints</strong></span></a>. The songwriting talent in this group is crazy. They truly love the art of making music.''</p>

<p>There’s a sound that isn’t heard enough on Country radio—the sound of organic, three-part female harmonies, offering stories that speak the language of modern women everywhere. Add in some good-natured brash and sassy attitude and you’ve got Canada’s pop-country queens, <a contents="The Heels" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.theheelsmusic.com/"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>The Heels</strong></span></a>. </p>
<p>That title is now undisputed with the release of the trio’s warmly received 2018 debut album,<strong><em> Love, Heels</em>,</strong> and multiple follow-up singles, alongside BCCMA Award wins. Although <strong>Bobbi Smith</strong>, <strong>Brittni Dominelli</strong>, and <strong>Kyla Rawlins</strong> have spent much of these past three years winning over audiences with a dynamic live show that showcases each of their distinctive voices and personalities. They also found time to write over 100 songs during several trips to Nashville—and at their home base in Vancouver— for their sophomore album titled “<strong>I Am</strong>”. </p>
<p>By incorporating influences ranging from classic country, gospel and Motown, through to powerful contemporary female artists such as Sheryl Crow, Carrie Underwood, and Whitney Houston, The Heels’ music, although it may be categorized as country, display a unique musical vision that transcends the genre. </p>
<p>Bobbi, Brittni, and Kyla still get a kick whenever someone assumes they’re sisters. They know it’s not just because of their seamless “family blend” harmony, but because of the obvious personal chemistry, they share. And when that chemistry comes down to spreading positive energy, there is just no limit to how high The Heels will lift us.</p>
<p>''Bobbi, Brittni, and Kyla spent most of 2020 recording an isolation album for 2021 delivering positive messages of self-love and changing lives with their single '<a contents="Happy After You" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6RVPa0femL24thwjQe0yr1"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Happy After You</strong></span></a>', says <a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#ccccff;"><strong>Kim Cyr</strong></span></a>, Editor in Chief for <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#ccccff;"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a> and host of the International <a contents="Music's Journey Podcast" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.musicsjourney.com"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Music's Journey Podcast</strong></span></a>.'' ''It has been an incredible experience speaking with fans and women from all over the world who have been moved to change their life circumstances and beginning the journey back to self-love after hearing '<a contents="Happy After You" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6RVPa0femL24thwjQe0yr1"><span style="color:#00cc00;"><strong>Happy After You</strong></span></a>' by the hottest country trio 'The Heels'. The song is so moving and raw that it sends chills up your spine. The lyrics leave you speechless with emotions that you simply can not ignore. It takes a lot to write a song like this. You have to be able to go to that place that most of us don't want to face or talk about. Even though we know it's hard to face and look at our own circumstances, women can feel isolated and without support when facing domestic violence or intimate partner abuse. Most abuse happens over long periods of time with other types of control and verbal abuse long before physical abuse. The lyrics and moving vocals by Bobbi, Brittni, and Kyla are incredible for this song. </p>
<p>''I had the pleasure of chatting with the girls once again for the release of their single '<a contents="Happy After You" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6RVPa0femL24thwjQe0yr1"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Happy After You</strong></span></a>' and about life during this pandemic,'' says Cyr. </p>
<p>''The importance of the 16 tracks on our new album ''<strong>I AM</strong>'' was so healing for us as a band and as individuals,'' says Bobbi. ''We just couldn't wait to share it all with the fans. Let's face it, this has been so hard on so many for different reasons. We have spent so much time creatively writing during this time that we were ready to release our new music. We are really proud of this body of work. It means everything to us. We just hope everyone likes it as much as we do. We normally take 3-6 months between releases but this time we wanted to do it differently. We have been looking at releasing like once a month to a month and a half. It feels so good to hear and see how the songs have been received by the fans. It feels really good,'' says Bobbi.</p>
<p>''It was hard to choose just 16 songs for this album because we have been working really hard at writing our journeys and there are some pretty special songs in the 100 that we have written during the past 3 years,'' says Kyla. ''Some of the songs that are on the album were written a long time ago. '<a contents="High Heels On" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6RVPa0femL24thwjQe0yr1"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>High Heels On</strong></span></a>' was our first release this year and we knew it was the right one to start the year because it had that song style that fans were used to from us but a message that was so important and that was a message of self-empowerment. We had heard about something called '<strong>The Shadow Pandemic</strong>' with our research and saw how domestic violence had risen in staggering numbers during the pandemic and it's still rising. This song was about empowerment and taking your power back and getting out of a bad situation. It was a message about standing up and loving yourself enough to leave the abusive relationship and living without domestic or intimate partner violence. It's important to recognize when something isn't good for us and not to feel held down in that and living a life where you don't lose that love for yourself. Then we released something fun and grooving like '<a contents="Dump Him" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6RVPa0femL24thwjQe0yr1"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Dump Him</strong></span></a>' which is a personal story,'' says Kyla.</p>
<p>''The lyrics for <a contents="Dump Him" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6RVPa0femL24thwjQe0yr1"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Dump Him</strong></span></a> are sassy and brilliant,'' says Cyr. ''<a contents="The Heels" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.theheelsmusic.com/"><span style="color:#ffcccc;"><strong>The Heels</strong></span></a> are delivering stories that speak the language of modern women everywhere. <a contents="Dump Him" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6RVPa0femL24thwjQe0yr1"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Dump Him</strong></span></a> will have you grooving with retro throwback vibes of Stevie Nicks' Dreams,'' says Cyr.</p>
<p>''We wanted a softer song for our third release and ''<a contents="Happy After You" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6RVPa0femL24thwjQe0yr1"><span style="color:#2ecc71;"><strong>Happy After You</strong></span></a>'' was the perfect choice,'' says Brittni. </p>
<p>''What was it like to get the vocals right in just the right harmony for this song, Kyla?'' says Cyr.</p>
<p>''It's such a delicate song and a very sensitive song too,'' says Kyla. ''With every song that we write, there is a vibe that is just so clear and because the three of us have such different voices that when it blends together, it's magical. Even when we play it back and we look at each other and wonder how we did that. Sometimes we can't even tell who is singing. This song needed a delicate softer lead and we all thought of Brittni right away. She is such a gentle, soft soul and her tone just matched this song so perfectly.'' </p>
<p>''What was it like having<a contents=" Anthony Liam Fiddler" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.fiddlerpro.com/"> <span style="color:#f1c40f;"><strong>Anthony Liam Fiddler</strong></span></a>(<strong>FiddlerProduction</strong>) produce this new album,'' says Cyr. </p>
<p>''Amazing'', says Kyla. ''When we wrote this song with <a contents="Kalsey Kulyk" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://kalseykulyk.com/"><strong>Kalsey Kulyk</strong></a>, she playing the acoustic guitar, and then when Anthony started to introduce the piano and the different types of drums, it became really emotional for us all. Anthony really kept that pureness to it and that vulnerability in the guitar like when Kalsey played it when we were writing. It is really special.''</p>
<p>''You also had the multi-award winning mixer/producer, <a contents="Jeff Diesel" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.sharp9music.com/producer-management-2"><span style="color:#e67e22;"><strong>Jeff Diesel</strong></span></a>(<strong>Sharp9music</strong>) mixing this album for you. What was that like to hear the finished songs?'' says Cyr.</p>
<p>''It was great working with Jeff,'' says Kyla. ''It is so incredible to hear the songs with all the instrumental components added in and to hear everything come to life in the way he does the mastering. He is just amazing.'' </p>
<p>''It has to feel incredible to see the fans from all over the world reacting and posting video messages to you girls thanking you all for writing these songs that are changing lives from every corner of the globe,'' says Cyr. </p>

<p><strong>"High Heels On": </strong> </p>
<p>“You kept me small so that you’d feel tall always looking down on me. You pushed and pulled, tried to break my soul but I broke your hold on me. So truth or dare me. You don’t scare me.” </p>
<p>This is a song about stepping into power. </p>
<p>An anthem about speaking up and standing up. </p>
<p>We wrote this song as an evolution to another song once in our live show called “Blue Lights.” It was one of the first songs we ever sang together written about running and hiding from violence, abuse, manipulation and fear. Inspired by the chaos of personal past traumas and struggles we sang feeling grateful it was no longer our reality. “<a contents="High Heels On" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.fiddlerpro.com/"><span style="color:#00cc00;"><strong>High Heels On</strong></span></a>” is the evolution of our survival -the rebirth and the revolution. </p>
<p>As we have continued to grow and create together we have learned how deeply we are affected by the lyrics and emotions of the music and the power it has to heal when it comes from a place of empowerment. </p>
<p>“<a contents="High Heels On" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.fiddlerpro.com/"><span style="color:#00cc00;"><strong>High Heels On</strong></span></a>” is part of the healing process; a reclamation of unshakable power. This song is the anthem of survival and the manifestation of an escape. </p>
<p>WORLDWIDE 1⁄3 of women experience domestic violence or intimate partner violence in their lifetime. </p>

<p>Domestic Violence Calls In Canada Almost Doubled During COVID-19 Pandemic </p>
<p>Home hasn't been safe for Canadians facing abuse. </p>
<p>Reports of abuse are also more severe, in part because abusers are "leveraging the pandemic" and finding new ways to control their partners. </p>
<p>From the start of the pandemic in March to December, Assaulted Women’s Helpline (AWHL) fielded more than 71,000 calls, compared to its average of 40,000 per year. In British Columbia, Battered Women’s Support Services (BWSS) recorded a total of 32,000 calls, in-person visits, virtual counseling, and legal advocacy appointments—about double from the year before. </p>

<p>APRIL 2021 (Toronto, ON) – Teaming up with multiple <strong>CCMA</strong> and <strong>CMAO</strong> Canadian Country <strong>Producer of the Year</strong>,<strong> <a contents="Jeff Dalziel" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.sharp9music.com/producer-management-2"><span style="color:#cccc00;">Jeff Dalziel</span></a></strong> (who has worked with Washboard Union, David Boyd Janes, Brett Kissel, Meghan Patrick, Nice Horse, and Dan Davidson to name a few), <a contents="Jason Benoit" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.jasonbenoitmusic.com/"><span style="color:#009999;"><strong>Jason Benoit</strong></span></a> takes on a new direction with the release “<a contents="A Lot About A Little" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/0Xi32ldFYxsc4g2vQ7b20w?si=PE7sZVkARgyLaRIXUD2iyw&nd=1"><span style="color:#00ff00;"><strong>A Lot About A Little</strong></span></a>”, a song that draws on inspiration from beloved 90’s country music. Following a year where many artists have had to find new ways of connecting with fans and suddenly finding themselves with more time, Jason had some soul-searching moments where he wanted to be true to the music he loved. Obsessed with the 90’s Country music he grew up on and that good old honkytonk feel, Jason finally decided to follow that passion and record a single with influences from his favourite records. </p>
<p>Jason and his team reached out to Jeff whom they felt would be the perfect fit for this project. Jason and Jeff previously worked together on one of Jason’s recent singles, the Conway Twitty cover “<strong>Slow Hand</strong>” which has now amassed over 1.2 million streams. Upon discussing the project Jeff immediately knew the direction in which Jason was feeling. Jeff reached out to good friend and country artist Aaron Goodvin who had written the perfect song that Jason was looking for. As soon as the team heard the demo version of the song, a session was booked with world-class band members from the<strong> <a contents="Jeff Dalziel" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.sharp9music.com/producer-management-2"><span style="color:#cccc00;">Jeff Dalziel</span></a></strong> team and “<a contents="A Lot About A Little" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/0Xi32ldFYxsc4g2vQ7b20w?si=PE7sZVkARgyLaRIXUD2iyw&nd=1"><span style="color:#00ff00;"><strong>A Lot About A Little</strong></span></a>” was born. The song is written by singer/songwriter, <strong>Aaron Goodvin</strong> (Written for Luke Bryan and Johnny Reid), <strong>Greg Bates</strong> (written for Montgomery Gentry, Terri Clark and the Nashville TV Show) and <strong>Faren Rachels</strong>.</p>

Benoit has opened himself up to a whole new level in his artistry working with <a contents="Jeff Dalziel" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.sharp9music.com/producer-management-2"><span style="color:#cccc00;"><strong>Jeff Dalziel</strong></span></a>. Benoit spoke about working on his vocal range and the exercises that Jeff would have him do. It is pretty cool. The end result is magic. I believe Jason is going to be releasing a whole new side of himself with his songs set to release this year. The fans are absolutely going to love them.''</p>
<p>''I feel now more than ever that I can release the music I always wanted to make,'' says Benoit. ''I am not making music for the hit record anymore. I am making music that I really resonate with personally. I am more grounded today than I have ever felt in the direction I want my music to go and it feels great to be putting out the songs that I hope my fans want to hear. I knew the moment I heard <a contents="A Lot About A Little" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/0Xi32ldFYxsc4g2vQ7b20w?si=PE7sZVkARgyLaRIXUD2iyw&nd=1"><span style="color:#00ff00;"><strong>A Lot About A Little</strong></span></a> that it was exactly the kind of song that I have been searching for and waiting to record. It was perfect for me. What Jeff did with that song and what he did helping me to hit notes that I just didn't know I was capable of helped me to feel more confident than ever before. I have several songs that I am ready to record that I am really proud of. I am hoping to work with <a contents="Jeff Dalziel" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.sharp9music.com/producer-management-2"><span style="color:#cccc00;"><strong>Jeff Dalziel</strong></span></a> on these ones as well.''</p>
<p>''Benoit is one of those rare artists you meet that just sticks to your heart,'' says Cyr. ''I am really excited about Benoit and this new junction in the road that he is taking. He has hit that sound and music that is going to take him far. Benoit is going to keep on climbing the charts with this kind of music.'' </p>

<p>If you’re craving a bit of relief from the apprehension and uncertainty of our troubled times, <a contents="New Moon Junction" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://newmoonjunction.com/"><span style="color:#009999;"><strong>New Moon Junction</strong></span></a> has just what you’re looking for. </p>
<p>With a sound that treads the line seamlessly between new and old school country, the Ontario-based trio of <a contents="Barb Doran" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.barbaralynndoran.ca/"><span style="color:#ff9999;"><strong>Barb Doran</strong></span></a>, <a contents="Tamara Maddalen" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.tamaramaddalen.com/"><span style="color:#ff9999;"><strong>Tamara Maddalen</strong></span></a>, and <strong><a contents="Matt Roger" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.mattrogerscountry.com/music"><span style="color:#33ccff;">Matt Roger</span></a><span style="color:#33ccff;">s</span></strong>, have come together at the perfect time to spread a bit of much-needed positive energy around. </p>
<p>There’s no doubt that their debut single, ‘<a contents="Feel Good Kinda Thing" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/newmoonjunction/real-good-kinda-thing"><span style="color:#00ff00;"><strong>Feel Good Kinda Thing</strong></span></a>’, does that and then some; all while expressing the joy and creative satisfaction these three solo artists have found together since they first got together in late 2019. </p>
<p>The need for some unbridled positivity was a primary factor in getting <a contents="New Moon Junction" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://newmoonjunction.com/"><span style="color:#009999;"><strong>New Moon Junction</strong></span></a> off the ground originally, says Doran: “That was the idea right from the start. Typically, my music is quite serious – even depressing at times – but the great thing about the three of us together is that we very much focus on being positive and upbeat.”</p>
<p>Doran, an established recording artist in her own right, had been looking to make a change in recent years. “I liked the idea of an all-female band, but I wanted to do something different, so I was trying to find two men to work with instead.” Having little success finding the right mix of personalities for the project, however, soon after opening the door to both women and men she found Maddalen and then Rogers. “And when I heard their voices I was immediately like, oh my God, it’s them – no doubt,” she adds. </p>
<p>“We’re all passionate about songwriting, but also about serving the song and supporting each other in that process,” Maddalen adds. “There’s no ego here; we all just want to have fun, grow as songwriters, and see where this takes us.” </p>
<p>The first and most important step in establishing a viable musical partnership is finding like-minded individuals, each of whom brought something unique to the mix that challenges and complements the others; and clearly, <a contents="New Moon Junction" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://newmoonjunction.com/"><span style="color:#009999;"><strong>New Moon Junction</strong></span></a> has nailed that part of the equation hands down. </p>
<p>All three are ‘musical lifers’, as Rogers puts it, but what they each have in common outside music is just as important as their shared love of writing, recording, and performing. While vocal and songwriting chops counted heavily in finding the right mix of players for <a contents="New Moon Junction" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://newmoonjunction.com/"><span style="color:#009999;"><strong>New Moon Junction</strong></span></a>, being established in the music industry was far less important than being established in life. Period. </p>
<p>Each of them has spent years on and off stage honing their chops individually – Doran and Maddalen as country and Americana solo recording artists, respectively, and Rogers as a journeyman songwriter and live performer. But all have lives and responsibilities outside of music. “We have a professional mindset. We’ve all put forth effort in the regular world and the music world,” Doran says. “Everyone treats their responsibilities within the band seriously, because they’re old hands at taking responsibility for themselves and others.” </p>
<p>That commonality only deepens their personal and musical bond and pushes them forward Rogers says: “That really is the feeling all the way around. We have respect for each other and the project and we’re established people who know what it means to work together with others to get things done.” </p>
<p>That fuels their commitment to the project, to the songwriting and recording process, and to what Maddalen describes as their common goal, “To grow as songwriters and singers, push ourselves out of our comfort zones and get better as artists.” </p>
<p>Granted, the pandemic has presented some challenges to momentum, but Doran, Maddalen, and Rogers, haven’t let that stop them from finding ways to work together, and – after Rogers posted the raw material for what would ultimately become ‘<a contents="Feel Good Kinda Thing" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/newmoonjunction/real-good-kinda-thing"><span style="color:#00ff00;"><strong>Feel Good Kinda Thing</strong></span></a> – getting their first single finished and down while it was good and fresh. </p>
<p>Although as <a contents="New Moon Junction" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://newmoonjunction.com/"><span style="color:#009999;"><strong>New Moon Junction</strong></span></a> they've written numerous tunes together, given the challenges of recording safely, they wanted to ensure they’d found the ideal track to kick off the process with Multi-platinum selling producer, songwriter, and mixer <a contents="Jeff Dalziel" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.sharp9music.com/producer-management-2"><span style="color:#cccc00;"><strong>Jeff Dalziel</strong></span></a> (Brett Kissel, Jim Cuddy, Lights, Chantal Kreviazuk). </p>
<p>From the moment the song started coming together, they all knew they had something special on their hands. “I was on a work trip last summer and sat down in my hotel room and just started playing,” Rogers says. “I wrote half a verse and half a chorus and posted it, and immediately everyone was like, that’s great.” </p>
<p>“Matt’s omitting some important details; as men typically do,” Doran adds, laughing. “After he posted that little clip, <a contents="Jeff Dalziel" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.sharp9music.com/producer-management-2"><span style="color:#cccc00;"><strong>Jeff Dalziel</strong></span></a> called him immediately and said, ‘That’s the one. Let’s get it finished’. So that’s what we did.” </p>
<p>After polishing the song and recording rough vocals, Dalziel brought them into his home studio individually to record the final track, Maddalen explains, adding that Dalziel’s ability to draw the best performances out of them, as well as the creative freedom he gave them to put their individual stamp on the song vocally, truly enhanced the final recording. </p>
<p>The result is a rarity, a track that sounds and feels like it’s been recorded live off the floor and in the moment – an off-the-cuff quality that’s hard to accomplish even when everyone is in the studio together – a testament to Dalziel’s talents in the studio, and Doran, Maddalen and Rogers’ uniquely striking blend of voices. </p>
<p>Although Doran, Maddalen, and Rogers have taken distinct paths musically and personally in establishing their voices as songwriters and performers, it’s clear that <a contents="New Moon Junction" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://newmoonjunction.com/"><span style="color:#009999;"><strong>New Moon Junction</strong></span></a> have a common goal – to celebrate the moments that make life worth living and encourage their listeners to do the same, which, in and of itself, is a ‘<a contents="Feel Good Kinda Thing" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/newmoonjunction/real-good-kinda-thing"><span style="color:#00ff00;"><strong>Feel Good Kinda Thing</strong></span></a>’.</p>
<p>''I had the chance to chat with Tamara, Barb and Matt about forming the new trio and how important it was that the ideas behind the project for <a contents="New Moon Junction" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://newmoonjunction.com/"><span style="color:#009999;"><strong>New Moon Junction</strong></span></a> were cohesive across the board,'' says <a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#0066ff;"><strong>Kim Cyr</strong></span></a>, Editor in Chief for <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#0066ff;"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a> and host of the International <a contents="Music's Journey Podcast" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.musicsjourney.com"><span style="color:#9900ff;"><strong>Music's Journey Podcast</strong></span></a>. ''<a contents="New Moon Junction" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://newmoonjunction.com/"><span style="color:#009999;"><strong>New Moon Junction</strong></span></a> is the real deal. The experience that the three artists bring to the table along with the understanding of who they are individually and the work it takes to make a trio produce quality music successfully is half the battle but listening to the transitions in the vocals is magic. For three artists to get together and create the kind of harmony that takes years to accomplish, you know you have something special in this new trio called, '<a contents="New Moon Junction" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://newmoonjunction.com/"><span style="color:#009999;"><strong>New Moon Junction</strong></span></a>.''</p>
<p><strong>Cyr</strong>: Can you tell us what the writing process has been for you guys on this project?</p>
<p>Tamara: I think we are really productive every time we get together and it has had its challenges when we started in 2019. The first time we got together we did a writing session for about 3-4 hours and we got a song written. It is the single we have just released. It is the song that got Jeff Dalziel's attention. We all have the same mindset in wanting to be productive with the time we have especially with the challenges that COVID has presented to us. It is so important that we make the best out of what we have and doing some of the sessions virtually, although not the same, but still very productive in getting what we need to get done. Each time gets us further and further along. What started out as a small body of work has turned out to be a large number of songs that have great potential. The writing has gone really well. We have four songs that are done and are performance ready. We are all like minded in that sense. We really want to help each other grow and pushing forward. The more we do it and the more we write the quality of songs we have to release. You touched on the harmonies too. We never preplanned the harmonies at all. We didn't know if we were all going to sit into the pocket. Sometimes the song dictates that. I think we are getting stronger and stronger with every performance. I love the sound.</p>
<p><strong>Cyr</strong>: Barb, what is the weirdest quirk you have? </p>
<p><strong>Barb</strong>: Hmmm, well my current weirdest quirk is that I have a really strange facial twitch going on! I don't know what is happening but I haven't been able to figure out why it keeps happening. Every now and then there is a spot in my cheek that looks like a ghost is sticking a finger in it... </p>
<p>''The magic that multi-award-winning producer <a contents="Jeff Dalziel" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.sharp9music.com/producer-management-2"><span style="color:#cccc00;"><strong>Jeff Dalziel</strong></span></a> does in a studio with each of these artists to create that perfect sound for the debut single ''<a contents="Real Good Kinda Thing" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/newmoonjunction/real-good-kinda-thing"><span style="color:#00ff00;"><strong>Real Good Kinda Thing</strong></span></a>'' is amazing,'' says Cyr. ''Taking a peek inside the studio sessions with this master producer is really interesting when you hear what each artist has to say. From the world-class musicians to the catchy lyrics, and the incredible harmonies that are pitch-perfect, you have the song that uplifts us all making you want to get up, get in your car, roll down the windows, and crank the music. It is the perfect song at just the right time.''</p>

<p>Whether you hear her at an intimate cafe or a massive music festival, you will be amazed at that perfect pitch and powerful voice coming from such a young rising star. </p>
<p>''You can't help but be pretty impressed with Canadian Country's Rising Star <a contents="Abby Stewart" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.abbystewartmusic.com/"><span style="color:#3399cc;"><strong>Abby Stewart</strong></span></a>,'' says <a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#9900ff;"><strong>Kim Cyr</strong></span></a>, Editor in Chief for <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#9900ff;"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a> and host of the International <a contents="Music's Journey Podcast" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.musicsjourney.com"><strong>Music's Journey Podcast</strong></a>. ''Stewart is such a bright light in country music today. She knew her way around a song and how to tap into that singer/songwriter storytelling magic very early on in her life as you can see with her tremendous success on so many different stages with the top of the Canadian Country Superstars roster already. Now that is impressive,'' says Cyr. </p>
<p>''It's nice to strip back all of that success and hear Stewart talk about how much she missed by being in the music industry so young and then to see the flip side of the business and being so grateful for all that she has accomplished. She has been on stage with some of the best and she is just getting started. The stars are the limit for this young powerhouse. The songwriting and navigation around a song and delivering a vocal with the emotion and understanding of the lyrics takes years of practice. Stewart gets every bit of that and what it takes to achieve this with hard work and she is without a doubt, a star in the making,'' says Cyr. </p>
<p>''<a contents="Abby Stewart" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.abbystewartmusic.com/"><span style="color:#3399cc;"><strong>Abby Stewart</strong></span></a> is really connected to her home in Kingston and all the places that support local artists like the market square. She has such a huge fan base within the Kingston music scene. It all starts at the local singing competitions, festivals, and fairs...Abby got out there performing her songs and writing every chance she could. Fans are in love with her beautiful vocals and now we are seeing the next junction in her musical journey. She is all grown up and better than ever! I can't wait for you to hear this interview... Stewart opens up about what was hard for her being in the spotlight so young, missing out on doing things that young girls would be doing, and then being able to appreciate and love what she has learned from starting so young. She has a great head on her shoulders and she appreciates the incredible opportunities she has had to build relationships with so many world-class producers and songwriters in Nashville and in Canada.''

<p>''<a contents="Jeff Dalziel" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.sharp9music.com/producer-management-2"><span style="color:#cccc00;"><strong>Jeff Dalziel</strong></span></a> is the most talented, caring award-winning producer that performs magic with every artist he works with,'' says Cyr. ''I really want to be a fly on the wall for one of these recording sessions. Wait, let me manifest that thought, not to be a fly on a wall but to be invited to watch and film a recording session with Jeff to see what this world-class producer can do. Pray for me and maybe I will get that invite and show you the magic that happens in the studio with Dalziel. Artists go in one way and come out a completely transformed artist with an understanding of exactly what they are capable of. It's insane how he can read an artist and know exactly what to do with their vocals and mold that song into a masterpiece,'' says Cyr. </p>

Emerging into the country music scene with her May 2018 EP “<a contents="Dive Bar Diva" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/dive-bar-diva-ep/1378144547"><span style="color:#00cc00;"><strong>Dive Bar Diva</strong></span></a>”, up and comer <a contents="Mackenzie Leigh Meyer" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.mackenzieleighmeyer.com/"><span style="color:#ffff00;"><strong>Mackenzie Leigh Meyer</strong></span></a> is already getting praise for her unique style and enchanting vocals. </p>
<p>Beginning 2019 with a<strong> <a contents="CMA Ontario" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://cmaontario.ca/"><span style="color:#ffccff;">CMA Ontario</span></a></strong> nomination for “<strong>Roots Artist of the Year</strong>” and rounding it out with slots at <strong>Boots and Hearts</strong>, <strong>Havelock Jamboree</strong>, and <strong>Lucknow’s Music in the Fields</strong> to name a few, you could say she has been making a lot of ground in a short period of time. </p>
<p>Eager to follow the heat of 2019 with new music, Meyer partnered with esteemed producer <a contents="Jeff Dalziel" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.sharp9music.com/producer-management"><span style="color:#3300ff;"><strong>Jeff Dalziel</strong></span></a> (<strong>2018/2019 CCMA Producer of the Year</strong>) and released her latest single “<a contents="Before You" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/before-you-single/1533798318"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>Before You</strong></span></a>” in October 2020, and she released her first music video earlier this year 2021. The song was added to Spotify’s “<strong>Live Country</strong>” and <strong>Amazon</strong>’s “<strong>Breakthrough Country</strong>” playlists and has already garnered over 50,000 streams on <a contents="Spotify" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/7vIpDPwFrupPH6AqxZNtY6"><span style="color:#00ff00;"><strong>Spotify</strong></span></a> alone.</p>
<p>''I had the pleasure of chatting with rising star '<a contents="Mackenzie Leigh Meyer" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.mackenzieleighmeyer.com/"><span style="color:#ffff00;"><strong>Mackenzie Leigh Meyer</strong></span></a>' who has such a bright future in Canadian country music, '' says <a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>Kim Cyr</strong></span></a>, Editor in Chief for <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a> and host for the International <a contents="Music's Journey Podcast" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.musicsjourney.com"><span style="color:#3300ff;"><strong>Music's Journey Podcast</strong></span></a>.

It is a beautiful ballad that shows off her love of poetry in her approach to this song. I love the story and lyrics behind '<a contents="Before You" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/before-you-single/1533798318"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>Before You</strong></span></a>' which is the polar opposite of her incredible song '<a contents="More Than A Memory" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/more-than-a-memory/1378144547?i=1378144555"><span style="color:#33ff00;"><strong>More Than A Memory</strong></span></a>.' My favourite by the way. Mackenzie's new single is a story that comes full circle. A story of love that is built by subtle gestures in everyday life, the emotional and mental support, the stability that builds that perfect friendship and love that is just so easy. The love that lasts a lifetime'' says Cyr.</p>
<p>''I really believe in Mackenzie's ability to tell a story beautifully in her music as a singer/songwriter,'' says Cyr. ''She really has something special and I know there is a real fire within her as an artist,'' says Kim Cyr. ''I can really relate to her artistry and we had a lot of fun in my interview with Mackenzie. I had to ask my favourite question lately in my <strong>Burning Questions</strong> portion of the interview and it did not disappoint. You have to hear what happens at the end of this interview.

<p><strong>Brett Kissel</strong> releases his fifth major-label studio album <strong>What Is Life</strong>? (<a contents="LISTEN HERE" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6VOaUBrKfzd49nIAzjVKmm"><span style="color:#33cccc;"><strong>LISTEN HERE</strong></span></a>). </p>
<p>“That age-old question is one that I’ve really focused on and centered around for this next phase of my career and for my life,” says Brett. “And each and every time, the one thought that is always front and center for me, is doing the best we can with what we have and making the most of our lives. I hope that everyone who hears it not just enjoys it, but is also inspired by it.” </p>
<p>Last month, Brett unveiled the first single, “Make A Life, Not A Living,” accompanied by the official music. “<strong>Make A Life, Not A Living</strong>” set history upon its release, picking up the most adds ever in a single week on Canadian country radio. </p>
<p>Brett recently picked up his fifth career <strong>JUNO Award nomination</strong>. His chart-topping single “<strong>Drink About Me</strong>” is nominated in the prestigious Single of the Year category. </p>
<p>-- </p>
<p>If you’re a fan of country music, you probably already know Brett Kissel’s story – owned his first guitar before he was even in school, released his first album before he could even drive – leading to him becoming Canada’s most dynamic country music artist before he turned 30 years old. The farm-and-ranch-raised artist has 15 top 10 radio singles, 3 #1 songs, and a tractor bucket full of gold and platinum plaques. He set records on his 112-date cross-country tour, played over 20 shows with his hero Garth Brooks, and has won 18 CCMA Awards and 2 JUNO Awards. </p>
<p>While fans were still buzzing about last year’s Now Or Never album, Brett started looking towards his next release, but couldn’t get three words out of his head – What Is Life? The search for something “more” weighed heavily on the country star’s mind and with the new album, Brett Kissel invites fans to take a deep dive with him into songs about love, celebration and gratitude.</p>

Coming off a very busy 300-day touring year to the stillness of not performing live, Brett had to dig deep to see what his heart and soul already knew. He describes flying from one side of the country to the other and feeling his heart pull to the childhood farm he grew up on and left as a teenager. He swore that he would never miss the farm and focus on chasing his dream to play on the stage playing his music as a successful singer/songwriter. He never knew that life would come full circle and his need to ground his life with balance would come from the land that has been in his family for over a hundred years.

Whether you are celebrating love, life, or dealing with facing what hurdles are standing in your way, Brett has delivered some amazing songs on this new project.

<p><a contents="Jordan Hart" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.jordanhartsound.com/"><span style="color:#00ffff;"><strong>Jordan Hart</strong></span></a> debuts his brand-new video for <a contents="Only Pieces of the&nbsp;Truth" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/49sjS8MaTk406DwCr7u0t0"><span style="color:#e74c3c;"><strong>Only Pieces of the Truth</strong></span></a>, the single was released today via <strong>Believe Digital</strong> and all streaming services. Hart is a singer-songwriter from Alberta, now based in Toronto, ON. The single is an emotive, mid-paced, and gentle song with gloriously sweeping arrangements and the video features a beautiful dance performance expressing our desire to communicate but failing to do so. It was directed by <strong>Julia Hendrickson</strong> (Justin Nozuka), produced by <strong>Lucy Camero</strong>n, and choreographed by <strong>Lauren Runions</strong>. </p>
<p>Said Hart. ‘’The central character realizes that all he wants to do is be vulnerable and that he is “holding all the cards, wishing you could see inside his walls.” But even still, and especially because the stakes are so high, he can’t bring himself to take the first steps forward toward repairing the relationship (“staring at your door, I’ll never knock”).’’ </p>
<p>Hart reached out to <strong>Julia Hendrickson</strong> after being impressed by her work on Justin Nozuka’s past videos. The video was filmed in an old, abandoned mansion in Toronto. The concept of the video was to explore the line between the purely natural and slightly distorted or manipulated. The dancers wore little to no makeup and were dressed very simply as to contrast beautifully against this forgotten space that was once such a grand statement of human presence. </p>
<p>‘’The mansion’s decaying paint and old wood make it feel like space is being reclaimed by the natural world,’’ said Hart. ‘’The natural light that quietly exposes the dark abandoned rooms reminds me of our profound impermanence in the face of the vastness of the environment that surrounds us.’’</p>
<p>In 2019, Hart embarked on a <strong>100-day straight busking challenge</strong> in Toronto, through thunderstorms and snowstorms he played on. Every Sunday, 100 percent of the money he raised was donated to <strong>L’Arche Canada</strong>, an organization that helps create communities that support people with intellectual disabilities. Since then, he has secured a record deal with <strong>Believe Digital</strong> and <strong>All Points</strong> (based out of the UK). The momentum from his daily busking also culminated in a sold-out show at the Great Hall in Toronto and his career streams also increased by over a quarter of a million. As a featured artist, his work with <strong>Lucky Rose</strong> on the song ‘’<strong>Lost</strong>’’ has accumulated over 15 million streams across all platforms and the track was top 30 at CHR Canadian radio. He is currently putting the finishing touches on his debut EP, out now.</p>
<p>''Pop artist ''<a contents="Jordan Hart" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.jordanhartsound.com/"><span style="color:#00ffff;"><strong>Jordan Hart</strong></span></a>'' has built his career through his live performances and honing his brilliant artistry and vision as a singer/songwriter,'' says <a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc99ff;"><strong>Kim Cyr</strong></span></a>, Editor in Chief for <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc99ff;"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a> and host of <a contents="Music's Journey Podcast" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.musicsjourney.com"><span style="color:#00ccff;"><strong>Music's Journey Podcast</strong></span></a>. ''Hart describes his debut video for his single Only Pieces of the Truth as a connection to his heart and soul. His vision moves you and connects you emotionally to that feeling we all can find hard to face and allow ourselves to be and that is vulnerable. The dancing in the video drives home that message with softness and the love that is expressed between the two dancers. You can feel the love that can be so strong but can be broken with the walls we build around ourselves that we feel are protecting us but in truth are robbing us of the compassion of what love can bring into our lives. You can't feel love completely or understand it without allowing yourself to be vulnerable a hundred percent of the way. I love this video and the visionary artist that Hart has become. Hart shows his emotive vocals and lyrics to this brilliant song,'' says Cyr. </p>

<p>NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Prolific songsmith and country and Americana singer/songwriter <a contents="Andrew Farriss" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://andrewfarriss.com/"><span style="color:#999900;"><strong>Andrew Farriss</strong></span></a> released his self-titled debut album on March 19th, 2021. Taking fans around the world on a journey through nature, history, love, and cultural spirituality, Farriss has put his whole heart into this work of art and has come up with nothing short of a masterpiece. </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/139421/b95a8b2ff8f2383254c7d8ed5d9baf062938dc5a/original/vinyl-record-cover.jpg/!!/b:W10=.jpg" class="size_l justify_center border_" /></p>
<p>Farriss shares his genuine talents as he shifts into genres that encapsulate all he stands for. Inspired by adventure, exploration, and more, the complete album is now available to download and stream on all digital platforms. With the lead single and music video release of “Run Baby Run” and another album track, “Good Momma Bad” premiering on Cowboys & Indians, there is no containing the potential of this stellar work. </p>
<p>“One of the reasons many people have warmed to country music, is that it isn’t just happy songs,” says Andrew. “It is the sad songs; it is the gritty subjects that some genres of music won’t go near. That is something that attracts me as a songwriter. I don’t want to chase what train everyone else is on, I want to stay true to what I do as a songwriter, and keep a frontier sense of freedom. When I was putting the album together, I steered away from cliches, plus I wanted to put my own personality in it. If my album doesn’t sound like anyone else, then that is good.” </p>
<p>When creating this project, Andrew Farriss left no stone unturned. It was imperative to make a vinyl record like no other that reflects and provides not only a listening experience but a visual one as well. The vinyl, an original work of art in itself showcases a translucent record that comes to life with moving characters and breath-taking animation once it hits the turntable. The cover offers a classic “Western” feel that brings back the traditional qualities that albums once had, yet maintains a fresh new image to keep every collector wanting more. </p>
<p>“As well as digital, I was passionate about wanting my album released on vinyl as I think the music on vinyl is tangible - physically attractive with the right artwork. To me this is important in the current digital music avalanche,” beams Farriss. </p>

<p>Building anticipation, Andrew previously shared three singles from the debut. “<strong>Come Midnight</strong>,” released in 2019, has continued to build a strong following since it first received radio airplay. “<strong>Good Momma Bad</strong>,” released at the start of 2020, solidified Andrew’s new musical direction and garnered further acclaim. His latest single, “<strong>Run Baby Run</strong>,” hit airwaves in March 2021. Prior to COVID-19, Andrew’s solo debut was initially flagged for release in March 2020. However, that was put on hold for 12-months. In that time, Andrew released a five-track EP, ‘<strong>Love Makes The World</strong>’, that spawned two hit singles, the title track which recently took the #5 spot on the Australian country chart, and “<strong>All The Stars Are Mine</strong>.” </p>

Farriss's skills as a songwriter/producer are showcased in this unique visual storyboard of a collection of songs that bring his artistry to life in his self-titled debut album. ''It is a masterpiece,'' says Cyr. Here are some of the questions I asked <a contents="Andrew Farriss" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#3498db;">Andrew Farriss</span></a> in my interview with him.</strong></p>
<p>1. What song makes you emotional and why? </p>
<p><strong>Farriss - “ HURT “ ( Trent Reznor ) - Johnny Cash's version. </strong></p>
<p><strong>About as real and gutsy a song as it gets. </strong></p>
<p><strong>Makes me emotional.</strong> </p>
<p><strong>I felt an instant and heartfelt connection to this song, and as a songwriter myself it pushes all the right buttons.</strong> </p>

<p>2. If you could step into the shoes and mind of any artist past or present, who would it be and why? </p>
<p><strong>Farriss - Bob Marley & The Wailers. Bob was a true master and communicator - a genius. </strong></p>
<p><strong>Love what that group of people achieved, love the Reggae music, love the songwriting, love the attitude to life, and conviction of faith. </strong></p>
<p><strong>After Bob passed, my band INXS was doing another major US tour and Ziggy Marley and the Wailers came out on tour with us for 3 months during the KICK tour. </strong></p>
<p><strong>Later down the road, I recall Ziggy showing me Bob’s bible, as a treasured possession. </strong></p>
<p><strong>I hope they are all well and in good health. </strong></p>
<p><strong>Love to all. </strong></p>
<p>3. What is your biggest life lesson so far? </p>
<p><strong>Farriss - </strong></p>
<p><strong>Treat others as you’d like to be treated, never lose a great opportunity to keep your mouth shut. </strong></p>
<p><strong>You need good food and clean water and shelter. </strong></p>
<p><strong>You can't eat a smartphone.</strong> </p>
<p>4. When you want to shut out all the noise and stress of the world, what is your favorite thing to do? </p>
<p><strong>Farriss - Read books. Think of positive things in life. Take a gentle walk, if possible with a loved one or friend - find a peaceful location. Eat pistachio nuts. </strong></p>
<p>5. What is your most useless talent? </p>
<p><strong>Farriss - I know how to repair a flat tire with a vulcanizing kit.</strong></p>

<p>When it came to penning the tracks for the album, Farriss had looked within and through personal experience, writing a collection of songs that bring to life stories of outlaws, freedom, cowboys, love, and paints vivid imagery of gun-slinging bandits, Australian history, and international cultural spirituality. With no <strong>INXS</strong> touring plans in the immediate future, and an abundance of original material in his songbook, Andrew has now launched a solo career that sees him taking aim at the country and Americana; and this is only the beginning. </p>
<p>“I love writing songs and telling stories that hopefully resonate with people. I have not followed any trends or formulas creating these songs. What I have written and recorded is different. I like different, different is good." </p>

<p><strong>50/50</strong> is a unique take on a love song. It's a love song about you (the listener), versus a breakup song about two people. This homage to self-esteem is timely as taking care of your own emotional needs became paramount in 2021, Kayla reflects on this on her latest track <strong>50/50</strong>. As Kayla explains “Sometimes you need to show yourself some love, even if it means hurting someone else." </p>
<p>Working with <strong>Marty Martino</strong> (Honors, Down With Webster) and her A&R team, the result is one of Kayla’s strongest tracks to date and showcases her dynamic vocal range. </p>
<p>Reflecting on what she wants fans to take from the song Kayla says “Lots of people will hear this song and think it's just about a spoiled relationship, but to me, it's so much more than that. It's about recognizing that you deserve better than what you're being given. It's about removing unwanted toxicity from your life.” </p>
<p>Since the 2017 release of her debut single “<strong>Carnival Hearts</strong>” (which went on to stream over 5 million times) and its follow up Top 10 single, the anthemic “<strong>What You’re Made Of</strong>,” Kayla continues to impress with her talent and determination to spread positivity with her words and music.</p>
<p>''<a contents="Kayla Diamond" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://kayladiamond.com/"><span style="color:#33ffff;"><strong>Kayla Diamond</strong></span></a> has a very unique way of presenting this love story,'' says <strong><a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#9966ff;">Kim Cyr</span></a></strong>, Editor in Chief of <span style="color:#9966ff;"><strong><a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com">NOW and THEN Magazine</a> </strong></span><span style="color:null;">and</span><span style="color:#9966ff;"><strong> </strong></span><span style="color:null;">host for </span><a contents="Music's Journey Podcast" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.musicsjourney.com"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Music's Journey Podcast</strong></span></a>.

This song has a powerful message that can be taken in many different life situations. It is what I love about it. The message to self-love, to recognize when a relationship is toxic and that instead of staying in something that just isn't good for you. Kayla opens up about her recent marriage <strong>Talia Hershon</strong> and the special love they have for one another. I have a chance to ask some cool questions to them both.

<p>TORONTO, ON. (March 17th, 2021) — Hot off the celebration of her second Canadian #1 single (“<a contents="wAnt me back" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/artist/lindsay-ell/309273947"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>wAnt me back</strong></span></a>”), Calgary’s <a contents="Lindsay Ell" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.lindsayell.com/"><span style="color:#ffcc00;"><strong>Lindsay Ell</strong></span></a> has earned her career-first <strong><a contents="JUNO Awards" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://junoawards.ca/"><span style="color:#99ccff;">JUNO Awards</span></a> nomination</strong>. Earning a coveted spot in the Country Album of the Year category, Ell’s nomination highlights the success of her sophomore album, <a contents="heart theory" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/artist/lindsay-ell/309273947"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>heart theory</strong></span></a>, and its ability to connect with audiences globally. </p>
<p>“I am incredibly proud to be a Canadian touring internationally and building my career around the world, but there is something about being nominated for my first<strong> <a contents="JUNO Award" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://junoawards.ca/"><span style="color:#99ccff;">JUNO Award</span></a></strong> ever that is truly so special," said Ell. "I am thrilled and honoured to stand alongside my fellow Canadian artists who I look up to and cannot wait for the <a contents="JUNO Awards" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://junoawards.ca/"><span style="color:#99ccff;"><strong>JUNO Awards</strong></span></a> in May!” </p>
<p>Earning more than 23 million Canadian streams, Ell was the first Canadian female artist to earn a #1 single in more than a decade in 2017 with her chart-topping single “<a contents="Criminal" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/artist/lindsay-ell/309273947"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>Criminal</strong></span></a>.” Following the success of this release, Ell went on to win two <strong>CCMA Awards</strong>, became a <strong>CMA</strong> and <strong>ACM Award nominee</strong> and earned her first #1 in the US alongside <strong>Brantley Gilbert</strong> with “<a contents="What Happens In A Small Town" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/artist/lindsay-ell/309273947"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>What Happens In A Small Town</strong></span></a>” in November 2019. This remarkable achievement made Lindsay the first Canadian artist to earn this status since 2007 and the first Canadian female artist since 2003. </p>
<p>Ell will celebrate her career's first<strong> <a contents="JUNO Award" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://junoawards.ca/"><span style="color:#99ccff;">JUNO Award</span></a></strong> nomination with the release of her next single, “<a contents="good on you" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/artist/lindsay-ell/309273947"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>good on you</strong></span></a>,” which went to radio on March 10th. This single will continue to build Ell’s international success story. It also confirms Ell’s presence on three international charts: Canada, the US — where “<a contents="wAnt me back" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/artist/lindsay-ell/309273947"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>wAnt me back</strong></span></a>” continues to climb — and the UK — where “<a contents="Hits me" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/artist/lindsay-ell/309273947"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>Hits me</strong></span></a>” was recently added to BBC Radio2’s B-List and premiered by Bob Harris. </p>
<p>Kicking off 2021 as an official <strong>CMA Foundation Ambassador</strong>, Ell will continue to create interactive opportunities for youth through music education while connecting with fans via social media, her online guitar course (<a contents="Playing wELL with Lindsay Ell" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.lindsayell.com/playing-well/"><span style="color:#cc0000;"><strong>Playing wELL with Lindsay Ell</strong></span></a>) and a handful of upcoming, socially-distanced shows.</p>

<p><strong>A Message from Lindsay</strong> </p>
<p>Three years ago I sat down with some girls who were victims of rape and sex trafficking. We bonded after sharing our stories together in a way that you could only really feel in that room that day. </p>
<p>That day, I decided that I want to be a place of comfort and empathy for younger girls and boys who have experienced sexual abuse or trauma in their childhoods. I want to be able to talk to disenfranchised youth and help them become more aware of themselves so that they can avoid putting themselves or their friends in situations that would lead to these types of abuse. I want to be able to speak to adults who have been through something similar to my story, to let them know that it is not our past that defines our future, but it is what we decide to do with it that does. </p>
<p>Difficult times in our life don’t make us who we are, but how we learn and act from them does. </p>
<p>When we stand up for what we believe in and use our voices in the power of love and forgiveness to others, I truly believe we have the power to heal each other and heal the world. Love, Lindsay </p>

<p>And so it continues...the story of one of Canada’s most enduring and iconic bands, <a contents="Glass Tiger" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://glasstiger.ca/"><span style="color:#00ffff;"><strong>Glass Tiger</strong></span></a>, roars on. Originally known as Tokyo, the band formed in Newmarket, Ontario in 1981 and spent several years cutting their teeth in the bar scene of the day. With rapidly growing popularity, it didn’t take long for all the major record labels to come courting, culminating in their signing of a worldwide recording deal with Capitol Records in 1985. Changing their name to <a contents="Glass Tiger" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://glasstiger.ca/"><span style="color:#00ffff;"><strong>Glass Tiger</strong></span></a>, their debut album, <strong>The Thin Red Line</strong> quickly became an unstoppable force, rocketing up the charts to become the fastest-selling debut in Canadian history, spawning no less than five hit singles.</p>
<p>Leading the charge, was the now-and-forever iconic, <strong>Don’t Forget Me (When I’m Gone)</strong>, a song that is etched into the very fabric of popular music’s history. <strong>Grammy-nominated</strong> and <strong>five-time award winners</strong> of both <strong>The Junos</strong> and <strong>Canadian Classic</strong>, the band has shared stages and recording performances with some of the world’s leading acts including; <strong>Rod Stewart</strong>, <strong>Tina Turner</strong>, <strong>Bryan Adams</strong>, <strong>Journey</strong>,<strong> Julian Lennon</strong>, and <strong>Cheap Trick</strong> (to name a few). </p>
<p>In 2018, <a contents="Glass Tiger" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://glasstiger.ca/"><span style="color:#00ffff;"><strong>Glass Tiger</strong></span></a> hit the road, touring extensively while promoting the release of their album, <strong>31</strong>- an album of celebration through the reimagining of the classic songs they are best known for. Originally, the record was to be named 30, in celebration of the thirtieth anniversary of <strong>The Thin Red Line</strong>, but life quickly turned to anguish when lead vocalist, <a contents="Alan Frew" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://glasstiger.ca/"><span style="color:#00ffff;"><strong>Alan Frew</strong></span></a>, suffered a stroke in the summer of 2015, causing the band to shut down while Frew spent the next year in recovery. “If you lose your 30th to such a thing, said keyboardist <strong>Sam Reid</strong>, you wait and hope for recovery, then when it happens, you simply celebrate life and what lies ahead...and for us, that was <strong>31</strong>. Simple math!”</p>
<p>Although <strong>31</strong> has been well-received by critics and fans alike, the demand for a new studio recording of unreleased original material remained first and foremost in their minds. Nothing would do it seems, other than a new <a contents="Glass Tiger" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://glasstiger.ca/"><span style="color:#00ffff;"><strong>Glass Tiger</strong></span></a> release. So now, ladies and gentlemen, the celebration of life and music continues with <strong>Glass Tiger</strong>’s latest offering…please welcome “<strong>33</strong>” <a contents="Glass Tiger" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://glasstiger.ca/"><span style="color:#00ffff;"><strong>Glass Tiger</strong></span></a>’s 5th studio album. Produced by <a contents="Glass Tiger" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://glasstiger.ca/"><span style="color:#00ffff;"><strong>Glass Tiger</strong></span></a> founding member <strong>Sam Reid</strong> and UK, singer, songwriter, <strong>Andrew Cole</strong>, “<strong>33</strong>” is an unapologetically raw, mature, eclectic, statement that states simply: “This is who we are today and this is how we see the world around us.” From the rough and tumble, rebellious, This is London, a throwback to their “bar days” when you simply picked up a guitar, started a band, and made raucous loud music, to the ethereal nature of pop with tracks such as, <strong>This is Your Life</strong> and <strong>Keepers of Time</strong>, this EP is, without a doubt, what <a contents="Glass Tiger" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://glasstiger.ca/"><span style="color:#00ffff;"><strong>Glass Tiger</strong></span></a> fans have been anxiously awaiting for over two decades.</p>
<p><a contents="Glass Tiger" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://glasstiger.ca/"><span style="color:#00ffff;"><strong>Glass Tiger</strong></span></a> has always maintained a connection to their rock roots and two new major tracks, <strong>Show Me</strong> <strong>(how to get close to the sun) </strong>and <strong>Ebb & Flow</strong> are both strong evidence of their “pre-synthesizer” days. “Tokyo, says <strong>Frew</strong>, was basically formed out of the remnants of two rock bands and rock out we did! The ’80s found us. Not the other way around.”</p>
<p>Of course, no classic album would be complete without a classic ballad, and the lads have delivered yet again in this department with their haunting and majestic rendition of, <strong>Dying Is Easy (with you)</strong>. “This song epitomizes the grandeur of living a full life,” says <strong>Reid</strong>. This feels like a song that only a band with an almost 40-year history together can deliver and make it believable. From the innocence and “smallness” of the opening vocal to the epic behemoth ending, this song’s statement is destined to be a <a contents="Glass Tiger" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://glasstiger.ca/"><span style="color:#00ffff;"><strong>Glass Tiger</strong></span></a> classic.</p>

<p><strong>SHANTAIA'S STORY </strong></p>
<p><a contents="Shantaia" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.shantaiamusic.com/"><span style="color:#00ffff;"><strong>Shantaia</strong></span></a> is a Country singer & songwriter. Growing up, Shantaia always had a love for country music, entering competitions across the country and performing on stage every chance she had. Already in singing lessons at the age of 3, guitar followed at age 6 and a love for writing songs soon after at age 9 when her great grandpa became ill. <a contents="Shantaia" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.shantaiamusic.com/"><span style="color:#00ffff;"><strong>Shantaia</strong></span></a> wrote her very first song about losing a loved one and what it would be like when they were gone. Writing songs about her life and experiences has been second nature since. </p>
<p><a contents="Shantaia" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.shantaiamusic.com/"><span style="color:#00ffff;"><strong>Shantaia</strong></span></a> was the youngest recipient to ever receive a 10k20 grant from Rawlco Radio at age 13 to record an eight song album featuring all original music. later that same year, <a contents="Shantaia" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.shantaiamusic.com/"><span style="color:#00ffff;"><strong>Shantaia</strong></span></a> won the Big Country Talent show competition in Regina and performed on the Craven Country Jamboree Main Stage. Flash forward to a young girl just of high school, in December of 2015, Shantaia had the opportunity to record 3 original songs in Nashville with <strong>CCMA</strong> and <strong>Juno award</strong> winning artist <strong>Crystal Shawanda</strong>, and in 2016, released her first single “<strong>Crave You</strong>” to radio and after the release of her sophomore single '<strong>Girls Like Me</strong>" had a successful radio & concert tour across western Canada. </p>
<p>A notable memory for the 22 year old, <a contents="Shantaia" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.shantaiamusic.com/"><span style="color:#00ffff;"><strong>Shantaia</strong></span></a> was asked to audition by “The Voice” for season 8, but chose to stay true to her roots and continue on her own path. Since then she has again been asked to audition for "The Voice" by the casting producers. Beginning at a young age, she has had the privilege to have toured the festival circuit, opening for countless Country Artists from <strong>The Bellamy Brothers</strong>, <strong>Charlie Major</strong> & <strong>Kane Brown</strong> to <strong>Ryan Hurd</strong> & <strong>Emerson Drive</strong>, and most recently,<strong> Chris Lane</strong> and <strong>Cold Creek County</strong> and played major festivals such as <strong>Cavendish Beach Music Festival</strong>, <strong>Dauphin's Country Fest</strong>, <strong>North by North East</strong> and <strong>Country Thunder Saskatchewan</strong>. </p>
<p><a contents="Shantaia" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.shantaiamusic.com/"><span style="color:#00ffff;"><strong>Shantaia</strong></span></a> was named Emerging Artist of the Year in 2019 at the <strong>SCMA</strong> awards, and excitedly ended her 2019 touring season with her first ever full band show in Nashville, TN for the major music festival and conference, AmericanaFest. Starting 2020 on a high note, <a contents="Shantaia" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.shantaiamusic.com/"><span style="color:#00ffff;"><strong>Shantaia</strong></span></a> released her new single "<strong>I Wish You Would</strong>" on January 3rd, which curated over 100,000 streams on Spotify in just over 3 weeks. Her highly anticipated EP "Chapter One" (produced by <strong>Doug Oliver</strong>, engineered by <strong>Trevor Macleod</strong>, and mixed by <strong>Scott Cooke</strong> and <strong>Jordan Oorebeek</strong>) was released on April 3rd 2020.</p>
<p>''<a contents="Shantaia" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.shantaiamusic.com/"><span style="color:#00ffff;"><strong>Shantaia</strong></span></a> is a very impressive singer/songwriter,'' says <a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>Kim Cyr</strong></span></a> for <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a> and host of <a contents="Music's Journey Podcast" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.musicsjourney.com"><span style="color:#3300ff;"><strong>Music's Journey Podcast</strong></span></a>. ''To hear how grounded she was as a young girl at the age of 13 years of age and to believe in herself enough to release an 8 song EP of all original songs is pretty incredible. She has accomplished so much already and I can't wait to see the musical journey she has right in front of her. <a contents="Shantaia" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.shantaiamusic.com/"><span style="color:#00ffff;"><strong>Shantaia</strong></span></a> is a natural singer/songwriter with a huge career ahead of her,'' says Cyr. </p>

Listen To The Full Interview HERE!</strong></span></a></p>
<p>Ottawa, ON-based rockers <a contents="Taming Sari" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.tamingsariband.com/"><span style="color:#ff9900;"><strong>Taming Sari</strong></span></a> have just released their fourth single — and very first ballad; the emotional and raw “<a contents="Gone and Run Away" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/757QFqe22JPSn4KIxHHY3R"><span style="color:#00ff00;"><strong>Gone and Run Away</strong></span></a>” is available now! </p>
<p>Between the musical composition, vulnerable lyrics, and blazing vocal delivery, the four-minute, 50 second-spanning ballad was made to convey emotion to the audience. It’s also jam-packed sonic elements similar to that of the Southern rock country scene and some of Canada’s finest modern rock acts — think The Glorious Sons or Rival Sons. </p>
<p>From the powerful drum fills, to the seemingly-endless slide guitar melodies and then an all-round groovy bass line to drive the Lynyrd Skynyrd-reminiscent track home, <a contents="Taming Sari" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.tamingsariband.com/"><span style="color:#ff9900;"><strong>Taming Sari</strong></span></a> has delivered modern-day magic with this one. </p>
<p>According to the eclectic band, “<a contents="Gone and Run Away" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/757QFqe22JPSn4KIxHHY3R"><span style="color:#00ff00;"><strong>Gone and Run Away</strong></span></a>” is a song for “rockers and lovers.” They describe it as a story about jealousy, heartbreak, and “the emptiness one can feel when a person is gone after a relationship comes to an end.” </p>
<p>On why they chose to record a ballad, <a contents="Taming Sari" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#ff9900;"><strong>Taming Sari</strong></span></a> agreed: “We had a desire to dip our toes into this slower tempo and explore the emotions of heartbreak within the soundscape of southern rock.” </p>
<p><a contents="Taming Sari" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.tamingsariband.com/"><span style="color:#ff9900;"><strong>Taming Sari</strong></span></a> is lead singer <strong>Warren Meredith</strong>, drummer and backing vocalist <strong>Adam Ouellette</strong>, guitarists <strong>Joe Fraser</strong> and <strong>Miguel Brunette-Kingsberry</strong>, as well as bassist <strong>Alex Pellerin-Auprix</strong>. During the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the group is based between Ottawa and Gatineau, Quebec. In their short tenure together before the world was swept off its feet by the worldwide health crisis, <strong><a contents="Taming Sari" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.tamingsariband.com/"><span style="color:#ff9900;">Taming Sari</span></a> </strong>was able to play 45 live shows, including some with beloved Canadian bands like <strong>The Lazys</strong> and <strong>Planet Smashers</strong>. </p>
<p>Back in May 2019, the bilingual quintet made their official debut with the pummeling single “<strong>Down with the Devil</strong>,” before releasing another, “<strong>Wake Up Boy</strong>,” that July. The two singles helped the aspiring musicians promote — and build up hype for their soon-to-follow debut album — <strong>Thirsty from the Drought</strong>, which dropped in September 2019. Since then, the blues-inspired five-piece put out their 2020 hit single, “<strong>Loving Way</strong>.” </p>
<p>All 10 songs recorded by <a contents="Taming Sari" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.tamingsariband.com/"><span style="color:#ff9900;"><strong>Taming Sari</strong></span></a> — including “<a contents="Gone and Run Away" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/757QFqe22JPSn4KIxHHY3R"><span style="color:#00ff00;"><strong>Gone and Run Away</strong></span></a>” — were recorded and produced by Toronto-based producer Ross Hayes Citrullo. Commending him for his work and contributions to their success, <a contents="Taming Sari" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.tamingsariband.com/"><span style="color:#ff9900;"><strong>Taming Sari</strong></span></a> said: “our creative relationship grows stronger every time we work on a new single together.” </p>
<p>''<a contents="Taming Sari" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.tamingsariband.com/"><span style="color:#ff9900;"><strong>Taming Sari</strong></span></a> is brilliant with the musical composition for their new single 'Gone and Run Away.' <strong>Warren Meredith</strong> brings the emotional vocals that deliver this powerful ballad but he still brings the energy and powerful performance and I love it,'' says <a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>Kim Cyr</strong></span></a>, Editor in Chief for <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a>.'' ''Drummer and back vocalist, <strong>Adam Ouellette</strong>, shares the story about how the band formed and how bringing <strong>Warren Meredith</strong> and <strong>Alexandre Pellerin-Auprix</strong> into the band felt like the glue that is Taming Sari. It was great to talk with Adam and to hear the vision the band has for moving forward. </p>
<p>''Each band member brings something special and without anyone of the band members, we just wouldn't be complete and have what we have right now,'' says Adam. ''The band has all the makings of a turn-key band ready to sign with any label,'' says Cyr. ''They know what they want and the music they want to bring to the music industry. From the branding, marketing, and music, the band is more than ready. It's not the fame that they are looking for, it's the love of music and hoping that the fans love what they do.'' </p>
<p>''Adam is so talented and very in tune with who he is as an artist and musician and it shows in this interview,'' says Cyr. ''These guys are rock solid and work hard for every fan that follows them. The fans know that they will bring incredible live performances that sell out venues! They had done it before and will do it again.'' To hear the whole interview, click the link below.'' You are going to love it!</p>

<p>There’s a saying when life hands you lemons, make lemonade. Ottawa-born brothers, Cory and Jeff Papineau live by this saying. So much so, that they named their band <a contents="Lemon Cash" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.lemoncashmusic.com/"><span style="color:#ffff00;"><strong>Lemon Cash</strong></span></a>. </p>
<p>The band’s name was inspired by the brother's childhood when they ran a neighbourhood lemonade stand. The two brothers would come home each day celebrating their hard-earned ‘lemon cash”. To this day they share similar interests in music and continue to write and record music together. They grew up in a very musical family along with a little sister, Taylor, who would often sing and help write songs in their music room at home. When the 3 siblings were very young, they wrote and recorded a jingle for their answering machine on their home phone line: “We can’t take your phone call, we’re busy through and through, but leave your name and number and we’ll get right back to you!” in acapella with three-piece harmonies. </p>
<p><a contents="Lemon Cash" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.lemoncashmusic.com/"><span style="color:#ffff00;"><strong>Lemon Cash</strong></span></a> started out as a cover band, forming an alternative rock band with some local friends from their hometown of Ottawa, Ontario. The band had success playing lots of gigs, receiving radio traction, and formed quite a substantial following for only a couple of years of playing together. After 3 years of playing as a five-piece band, the members of Lemon Cash decided to part on good terms and ended their days as a rock band. Looking to evolve their music, Cory and Jeff found their sweet spot and transitioned into the country world where they would come to realize this is where their tastes and personalities fit best. </p>
<p>The inspiration to switch to the country genre came from their parents: Jeff Sr. and Sandra. They introduced Jeff and Cory to country music at a very young age. Listening to a wide range of artists such as Patsy Cline, George Jones, George Strait, Dolly Parton, Tim McGraw, and Garth Brooks </p>
<p>These country legends became the inspiration for the brothers beginning to write and perform their own songs with their signature blend of harmonies and a tinge of their love of rock music thrown into the lemonade of <a contents="Lemon Cash" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.lemoncashmusic.com/"><span style="color:#ffff00;"><strong>Lemon Cash</strong></span></a>. </p>
<p>“<a contents="Wine Tonight" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/artist/lemon-cash/673365036"><span style="color:#ffff00;"><strong>Wine Tonight</strong></span></a>” is the first single from the forthcoming album. Written by Jeff and Cory Papineau and Jeff Armstrong, it is an upbeat, hook-driven song, sure to have you singing along, and craving a cold margarita on a tropical beach. </p>
<p><a contents="Lemon Cash" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.lemoncashmusic.com/"><span style="color:#ffff00;"><strong>Lemon Cash</strong></span></a> is busy recording in the studio with producers such Doug Oliver (Cold Creek County), Chris McComb (River Town Saints) and will be releasing a full-length album later in 2021.</p>
<p><strong>''<a contents="Lemon Cash" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.lemoncashmusic.com/"><span style="color:#ffff00;">Lemon Cash</span></a> has Nashville written all over them,'' says <a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#33ccff;">Kim Cyr</span></a>, Editor in Chief for <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#33ccff;">NOW and THEN Magazine</span></a>. ''<a contents="Cory and Jeff Papineau" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.lemoncashmusic.com/"><span style="color:#ffff00;">Cory and Jeff Papineau</span></a>, have everything they need to rise to the top of Canadian country radio. Their harmonies are killer! <a contents="Lemon Cash" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.lemoncashmusic.com/"><span style="color:#ffff00;">Lemon Cash</span></a> has the same IT factor, that sound that puts them in the same league as other top country duos like Florida Georgia Line, High Valley, and Brooks and Dunn. ''<a contents="Wine Tonight" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/artist/lemon-cash/673365036"><span style="color:#8e44ad;">Wine Tonight</span></a>'' is the first single from the forthcoming album. If this is any indication for what the rest of the new album is going to be, we are in for one hell of a ride right along with them. The blend of harmonies, the hook-driven pop country, the upbeat tune have you wanting to dive right into good times and fun in the sun. The perfect feel-good vibes are exactly what we all need, '' says Cyr. Listen to the full interview below.</strong></p>

<p>7th MARCH, 2021 (TORONTO, ON) – The critically acclaimed duo <a contents="Command Sisters" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.commandsisters.com/"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>Command Sisters</strong></span></a> shared their latest track, “<a contents="Rain On My Parade" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/command-sisters/1021909206"><span style="color:#6600ff;"><strong>Rain On My Parade</strong></span></a>” via 21 Entertainment/Universal Music Canada/Republic Records. </p>

It’s basically a middle finger moment.” </p>
<p>Despite the emotional subject matter, <a contents="Command Sisters" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.commandsisters.com/"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>Command Sisters</strong></span></a> deliver the heavy-hitting lyrics in their undeniable signature style full of boldness, seduction and raw truth.

Bad things happen to good people all the time.” They continued, “Writing “<a contents="Rain On My Parade" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/command-sisters/1021909206"><span style="color:#6600ff;"><strong>Rain On My Parade</strong></span></a>” was the release of all those feelings we had bottled up.” </p>

<p><strong>ABOUT COMMAND SISTERS</strong> </p>
<p><a contents="Command Sisters" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.commandsisters.com/"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>Command Sisters</strong></span></a>—Charlotte and Sarah Command—wield the power to turn popular culture red, the color being a signature feature of a finely-crafted image. After playing together since childhood, the siblings honed on a distinct sound and style that has brought them to what you get today. Sarah drew on a lifelong love of shred gods, such as Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, and Orianthi, as Charlotte nodded to the songcraft of Sia and The Weeknd, cultivating a sharp signature sound steeped in mind-blowing musicality and tight hooks. Their sense of style got just as loud with a crimson take on high fashion. This careful presentation turned heads. Not only did they perform across the United States and Canada, but they attracted partners such as Martin Guitars, PRS Guitars, Marshall Amps, MAC Cosmetics, and Boss/Roland, to name a few. Additionally, they cultivated a fervent social media following through consistently eye-popping posts. Mind you, they impressively did all of this without one official release. After inking a deal with 21 Entertainment, Universal Music Canada, and Republic Records, Command Sisters are primed for a bold breakthrough. </p>

<p>After two years away from the music scene, Canadian singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist <a contents="Katelyn Biehn" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://katelynbiehn.com/"><span style="color:#33ffff;"><strong>Katelyn Biehn</strong></span></a> is sitting mellow with her newly released single: the innately romantic “<a contents="Daydreamin" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/album/daydreamin-single/1549168079?uo=4&app=itunes&at=1001lry3&ct=dashboard"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>Daydreamin</strong></span></a>’” — available now! </p>
<p>Similar to the rest of the Stratford, Ontario-based singer’s discography, the two-minute, 55 second-spanning comeback single is a beautiful blend of the pop and R&B genres. The guitar and bass-driven instrumentals are complimented by Katelyn’s smooth delivery, perfect pitch and mellow demeanor. </p>
<p>“You know that moment when you see a total stranger and in your mind, you imagine walking up to them confidently and introducing yourself and then the ‘rest is history?’ ‘<a contents="Daydreamin" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/album/daydreamin-single/1549168079?uo=4&app=itunes&at=1001lry3&ct=dashboard"><span style="color:#cc00ff;"><strong>Daydreamin</strong></span></a>’ is that idea played out in someone’s mind,” Katelyn says, of her latest creation. “Who doesn’t love a romantic love at first sight story? A first love that lasts the rest of their lives.” </p>
<p>On how she came up with the arrangement, Katelyn said: “I started out with a fun beat just sitting around in my living room, I began making up a story with my friends and then ‘Daydreamin’’ was born.” </p>
<p>To help support the promotion of “Daydreamin’”, Katelyn enlisted producer Roy Hamilton to master the song and create a lyric video for its official release. It features shots of some of the world’s biggest and most popular cities, including London, Los Angeles, New York City and Seattle. There’s even an abundance of beautiful skyline and overhead shots of Toronto — which is just shy of two hours west of Katelyn’s very own hometown. </p>
<p>At the early age of four, Katelyn’s career began as a drummer, surprisingly enough. To this day, she still plays, however, banging those toms and snares led her to pick up a guitar and start writing her own music. She entered an abundance of talent shows and landed herself in the recording studio with a bunch of Nashville-based musicians by the time she was 17 years old. Those sessions inevitably led to her collaboration with Benji and the release of Spark — her highly-successful 2017 debut effort. </p>
<p>As well as Spark, Katelyn’s back-catalogue includes her 2019 debut EP, Ready; it features five original tracks, including fan favourites “Worth Fighting for” and “Supposed to Be.” </p>
<p>The doe-eyed Ontarian’s songs offer vulnerable and heartfelt snapshots with her satiny vocals over-energetic grooves infused by faith. Her inspirations range from John Mayer to H.E.R. to Justin Bieber —whose vocal coach: the Grammy-nominated Mama Jan, is working with Katelyn to draw out the full textures of her voice. </p>
<p>“Daydreamin’” is available now.</p>

<p>Kate Gillespie </p>
<p>With her debut EP racking up over 3.2 million streams on Spotify, 25 year old singer-songwriter Kate Gillespie, is making her mark on the Indie Folk scene. The title track, “Pink & Gold”, has received over 800,000 streams on Spotify, and was noted for its “…make-you shiver vocals, lyrics that stick in your head and tug at your heartstrings……” (Beach Metro June, 2017.) Her two singles, “Not Having Fun” and “New York” was also featured on CBC Radio's "q", with Tom Power. Born and raised in Toronto, Kate made the jump to Nashville in 2014, to pursue her music career. Her latest single, "New York", was released in May 2019, and was noted for taking “Kate’s music (is taken) to new heights with a heavy backbeat, the haunting sounds of echoing guitars and brutal honesty within her storytelling.” (pressparty.com) Kate's music reflects every bit of hope and heartbreak that she’s lived through. Her transparent, vulnerable songwriting, compliments her poetic storytelling, finger picking, and witty persona, to create something truly special. Kate is gearing up for a U.S and Canada wide tour with Sofar Sounds in 2021. She is a graduate of the Belmont University’s School of Music’s Commercial Voice and Songwriting program. </p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Her music has the power to lift people up and heal them, just as it has always done for her.<img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/139421/a583ba824295736bbf3bc29da96834a04bba6766/original/kate-gillespie-cover.jpg/!!/b:W10=.jpg" class="size_l justify_center border_" /></p>

<p>A Toronto, Ontario native, <a contents="David Boyd Janes" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.davidboydjanes.com/"><span style="color:#33ccff;"><strong>David Boyd Janes</strong></span></a> is being recognized as one of country music’s most promising new artists – and he owes everything he has accomplished so far to the decision he made two years ago of quitting his job to focus on music full-time. The valiant move paid off quickly; 2019 was a monstrous year for the budding country star. </p>
<p>“I truly feel like I’m stuck in the greatest dream I’ve ever had and I hope I never wake up,” says David. “I have no idea what’s around the corner but I’m really excited to greet it and embrace it all.” </p>
<p>He emerged out of 100 artists to win <strong>The Next Country Music Star</strong> contest put on by the <strong>Havelock Country Jamboree</strong>, and was named <strong>Artist of the Year</strong> at the <strong>Mississauga Music Awards</strong>. Another win at the <strong>Country Wild Music Festival</strong> in Cobourg, Ontario, earned David a trip to Nashville to record a song with Grammy-winner Jamie Tate. Before David even released the song – <a contents="Ready For A Good Time" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/5GxnWuuTpzdnPb57PFxUHM?si=4h0wFb6AS2SGjqYPOZRxeQ"><span style="color:#33ff00;"><strong>Ready For A Good Time</strong></span></a> – <strong>Montana’s restaurant</strong> chain chose it to be featured in their advertisements airing nationwide on both tv and radio. After winning the <strong>Boots & Hearts Emerging Artist Showcase</strong>, he not only got the opportunity to perform in front of 25,000 country fans on the final night of the festival but with the win came a single release contract through Warner Music Canada. </p>
<p>The song - <strong>Couldn’t Hurt</strong> - was written with country superstar <strong>James Barker</strong>, fellow <strong>CMAOntario</strong> Award nominee <strong>Aaron Alan</strong> and industry veteran <strong>Joe Ernewein</strong>. </p>
<p>2020 has also seen David earn his first <strong>CMAOntario</strong> Award nomination in the Rising Star category, and while plans for a robust tour had to be put on hold, next year is shaping up to be his busiest yet.</p>

<p>Multi-platinum, award winning entertainer <a contents="Tim Hicks" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.timhicksmusic.com/"><span style="color:#ffcc00;"><strong>Tim Hicks</strong></span></a> released his new single ‘<strong>The Good, The Bad and The Pretty’</strong> via <strong>Open Road Recordings</strong>. Self-penned along with <strong>Derek Hoffman</strong> and <strong>Deric Ruttan</strong>, ‘<strong>The Good, The Bad and The Pretty</strong>’ sets the stage for the next chapter in Hicks’ career, and is the first release off his forthcoming EP, out later this year. </p>
<p>Of the song says Hicks, ‘<strong>The Good, The Bad and The Pretty</strong>’ is about that one bar in every town, that welcomes all sorts of characters on any given night. For me, it represents a lot of the bars I played on a nightly basis for years. I made a lot of good friends in places like that. The best people. The kind that’d give you the shirt off their back if you needed it, and they did. I wanted to pay tribute to them.” </p>
<p>‘<strong>The Good, The Bad and The Pretty</strong>’ is the first new release from the four-time <strong>JUNO </strong>Award nominee and multi-Platinum selling <strong>CCMA Award</strong> winner since the June 2020 release of his<strong> Wreck This</strong> EP, which garnered his second #1 single with ‘<strong>No Truck Song</strong>’. His top 5 single ‘<strong>Loud</strong>’ from his album <strong>New Tatto</strong>o; which also featured his first #1 hit ‘<strong>What A Song Should Do</strong>’; was recently licensed to the <strong>NHL</strong> for the <strong>2020 Stanley Cup Playoffs</strong> and was chosen as the goal song for team Canada during the <strong>2020 IIHF World Junior Hockey Championships</strong>. </p>
<p>Building from local acclaim to a nationally recognized name, Hicks has cemented his reputation as an elite chart-topping act since making his country label debut in 2013. His vast catalog of highly praised releases including <strong>Throw Down</strong>, <strong>5:01</strong>, <strong>5:01</strong>+, <strong>Shake These Walls</strong>, <strong>New Tattoo</strong> and <strong>Wreck This</strong>, have earned the four-time <strong>JUNO</strong> Award nominee and <strong>CCMA Award</strong> winner three PLATINUM selling singles, nine GOLD singles, one GOLD album and eighteen Top 10 radio hits, in addition to over 87 million collective streams, multiple sold-out headlining dates and back to back national tours. Hicks, now a three-time consecutive winner, was also the first recipient of the <strong>Nielsen Compass Award</strong>, which recognizes an artist for the most total content plays including streams, single and album sales as well as total social media following. </p>

<p>Awards season started out Sunday night with the 2021 Golden Globes, the 78th version of the annual TV-and-movies ceremony — though it was an unusual one. </p>
<p>Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the ceremony was delayed two months; normally taking place in January as the first awards show of the season, for the first time, this year’s show was held bi-coastally and at the end of February. </p>
<p>Tina Fey hosted live from New York’s Rainbow Room and co-host Amy Poehler broadcasted from the awards’ normal home at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, Calif. Nominees appeared remotely from locations around the world.</p>
<p>Kaluuya won Best Supporting Actor (Movies) for his work in Judas and the Black Messiah, and in his acceptance speech, he emotionally addressed the passing of his friend and costar, Chadwick Boseman. </p>
<p>Boseman later won Best Actor (Movies, Drama) for his performance in Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom. </p>
<p>Boseman’s widow, Taylor Simone Ledward, accepted the award for her late husband, saying “he would thank God, he would thank his parents, he would thank his ancestors for their guidance and their sacrifices.” </p>
<p>Levy accepted the award Sunday night, saying that by its final season, Schitt’s Creek took him and his cast and crew “to places we never thought possible.”</p>
<p>Emma Corrin won Best Actress (TV, Drama) for her portrayal of Princess Diana in Netflix series The Crown, while Jason Sudeikis took home the Globe for Best Actor (TV, Comedy) for Ted Lasso. </p>
<p>Gillian Anderson won Best Supporting Actress (TV, Drama) for her performance as Margaret Thatcher in The Crown. </p>
<p>The Crown also won Best TV Show (Drama). It’s the second best drama award for the show, which also won in 2017. </p>
<p>The Queen’s Gambit won Best Limited Series, while the series star, Anya Taylor-Joy, won Best Actress, Limited Series. </p>
<p>Chloé Zhao became only the second woman (after Barbra Streisand) and the first woman of Asian descent to win the Golden Globe for Best Director; she won for Nomadland. </p>
<p>Jodie Foster won her first Golden Globe in nearly three decades, for best supporting actress for her role in The Mauritanian.</p>
<p>Borat Subsequent Moviefilm won both Best Movie (Comedy or Musical) and its creator and lead actor, Sacha Baron Cohen, took home the Globe for Best Actor. Cohen thanked “comic genius” Rudy Giuliani for his win. </p>
<p>In a surprise win, Andra Day won Best Actress (Movie, Drama) for her transformative performance as Billie Holiday in The United States vs. Billie Holiday. Nomadland took home top prize of the night for Best Picture, Drama.</p>
<p>A year after fielding no female nominees for best director — or best feature film nomination for any movie directed by a woman — the Hollywood Foreign Press nominated more female filmmakers than it had before. </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span class="font_large"><strong>Golden Globe Portraits Jane Fonda Cecil B. deMille Recipient</strong></span></p>

<p><a contents="Jake Hoot" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.jakehoot.com/"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>Jake Hoot</strong></span></a> releases his brand new EP ''<a contents="Love Out Of Time" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://ingroov.es/love-out-of-time-8"><span style="color:#9900ff;"><strong>Love Out Of Time</strong></span></a>'' revealing how vulnerable love can be.</p>
<p>The five-track project was produced by hit songwriter/producer <strong>Danny Myrick</strong> (Jason Aldean, Tim McGraw, Maddie & Tae), <a contents="Hoot’s" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.jakehoot.com/"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>Hoot’s</strong></span></a> debut project features four original songs as well as Hoot’s recently released cover of “<a contents="La Bamba" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://ingroov.es/love-out-of-time-8"><span style="color:#9900ff;"><strong>La Bamba</strong></span></a>.” Hoot collaborated with an all-star lineup of musicians and songwriters for <strong>Love Out Of Time</strong> including <strong>Dean Sams</strong> (Lonestar), <strong>Myrick</strong>, <strong>Jenne Fleenor</strong> (CMA Award-winning musician), <strong>Dave Pahanish</strong> (Keith Urban, Tim McGraw, Toby Keith), <strong>Jamie Floy</strong>d (Ingrid Andress, Lucie Silvas, Ashley Monroe) and more.</p>
<p>The EP <a contents="Love Out Of Time" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://ingroov.es/love-out-of-time-8"><span style="color:#9900ff;"><strong>Love Out Of Time</strong></span></a> also features a collaboration with global superstar and vocal powerhouse <a contents="Kelly Clarkson" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.kellyclarksonshow.com/"><span style="color:#cc0099;"><strong>Kelly Clarkson</strong></span></a> on the emotional ballad, “<a contents="I Would’ve Loved You" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://ingroov.es/love-out-of-time-8"><span style="color:#9900ff;"><strong>I Would’ve Loved You</strong></span></a>.” </p>
<p>“<a contents="I Would’ve Loved You" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://ingroov.es/love-out-of-time-8"><span style="color:#9900ff;"><strong>I Would’ve Loved You</strong></span></a> is a song about the choices we make and the consequences that follow,” Hoot explained of the collaboration. “It is a story about someone who has so much love to give, but due to the other person’s decisions, that love turns into hate that lasts forever. I am so honored to have written this song with <strong>Jamie Floyd</strong> and <strong>Dean Sams</strong>, who are both incredible writers.''</p>
<p>From backstage, side stage to front of the house, the music video finds Hoot and Clarkson wandering around the Wiltern Theatre in Los Angeles, CA. The clip brings the heartstring-pulling story to life in an elegant setting with a flawless visual that is perfect for the track while putting both of their powerhouse vocals on full display center stage.</p>
<p>“More than forever, always, madly / the deepest, unforgettable / With all that I am / with my heart wide open / for the rest of my life I promise you / I’m gonna hate you as long and as much as I would’ve loved you/ And I would’ve loved you,” Hoot and Clarkson sing during the chorus.</p>
<p>''The unveiling of the music video for ''<a contents="I Would've Loved You" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://ingroov.es/love-out-of-time-8"><span style="color:#9900ff;"><strong>I Would've Loved You</strong></span></a>'' is so evocative and powerful,'' says <strong><a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#ff00ff;">Kim Cyr</span></a></strong>, Editor in Chief for <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#ff00ff;"><strong>NOW and THEN Magazine</strong></span></a>.

It is honest and candid. Jake shows how he can project his voice so clearly and with such ease. It is truly incredible. Kelly's voice and vulnerability are stunning in this duet with Jake. There just isn't any other word for it. I get chills every time I listen to it. The lyrics are bold and direct, leaving nothing to the imagination. Artists have to reinvent a new way to write lyrics about heartache and breakups. This song brings it and will resonate with fans around the world.'' </p>

<p>''This one is a very special song to me because of the meaning behind it,'' says Hoot. ''It talks about a love that’s misplaced in time, not run out of love, just wrong timing. And even though it's no one's fault, it's just not the right time. It is about two people who love each other, but the timing just isn’t right. When I came up with the concept of this song, I was in a very interesting time in my life. I really had feelings for this girl but it just wasn’t the right time for either of us. Fast forward a few years, he adds, this girl is now going to be my wife! Timing really is everything! This is also her favorite tune.''</p>

The duo’s new song comes with a message of hope and gratitude to their fans. </p>
<p>Written by the duo’s Dan Smyers and Shay Mooney alongside Ryan Lewis, Tayla Parx and Jordan Reynolds, “<a contents="Glad You Exist" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/us/artist/dan-shay/690319057"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Glad You Exist</strong></span></a>” was announced to fans Tuesday night with a special message from the duo: “<strong>To us</strong>, ‘Glad You Exist’ is more than just a song. It’s a message of gratitude and hope. A message to everyone in our lives: our fans, our friends, our families, to remind them all how grateful we are to be on the planet at the same time. It’s truly remarkable when you think about it. We’ve spent the majority of the past year, like many others, searching for answers and a sense of normalcy, but finding comfort in memories of better days (that we all know will return soon). Concerts, bonfires, road trips with friends, even the simple things like date night at a restaurant, or beers at a bar during a football game. This song has taken on a new meaning not being able to see our loved ones in person, but throughout history, music has always had a special way of bringing people together, even when we are furthest apart. These words hold a special place in our hearts, and hopefully, they will in yours too. We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again (and again). We’re just so glad you exist. Every. Single. <strong>One of you</strong>.” </p>
<p><a contents="Dan + Shay" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.danandshay.com/gladyouexist?ref=https://www.google.com/"><span style="color:#9b59b6;"><strong>Dan + Shay</strong></span></a> were recently announced as Blake Shelton’s Battle Advisors on NBC’s The Voice for the show’s milestone 20th season. “The Battle Rounds are two artists coming together in a battle duet and there’s no one I can think of who could advise better than Dan + Shay for this,” said Shelton. “Their career has exploded over the last several years because of their songwriting and how they are able to harmonize and make music together. And they are naturals at being an advisor and it’s been helpful for me and my team having them here this season.” </p>
<p>The duo has graced The Voice stage in the past for multiple performances, most recently in December 2020 with their original holiday tune “Take Me Home For Christmas.” The announcement came shortly after the duo’s massive global hit “Tequila” received the iHeartRadio Titanium Award for crossing the threshold of one billion total audience spins across iHeartRadio stations. </p>
<p>7x Platinum, multi-week #1 hit “Tequila” laid the groundwork for the enormous success that is Dan + Shay. The duo shattered records with their single “10,000 Hours” with superstar Justin Bieber, with the song claiming the title of the biggest first-week streaming total in country music history. Garnering over 1.5 billion global streams to date. Dan + Shay have earned multiple GRAMMY, CMA, ACM, American Music, and Billboard Music Award wins and nominations, currently up for their 3rd consecutive GRAMMY Award for Best Country Duo/Group Performance. In the seven years since they formed, Dan + Shay have surpassed seven billion global career streams (with over four billion impressions in 2020 alone). </p>

<p>TORONTO, ON (February 5, 2021) — Canada’s MacKenzie Porter has released the official video for her chart-climbing current single “Drinkin’ Songs.” A time-traveling trip through the decades, the video was directed by Justin Clough and shot in Nashville, TN, and shows Porter dating one dud after another time after time, with each love interest throughout the iconic eras becoming “just another one of (her) drinkin’ songs.” Sealed with a martini and an intoxicating hook, “Drinkin’ Songs” delivers with “impressive vocal chops” (Calgary Herald) that have fans “instantly obsessed” (Whiskey Riff).</p>

This year, Porter will deliver more new music produced by Joey Moi, featuring her “girl-next-door vocals” that “cut like a blade” (Billboard). </p>
<p>With Nashville taking notice of her “authentic heart” (American Songwriter) as well as “her mesmerizing vocals and hook-driven songs” (Billboard), Porter was just inducted into CMT’s Next Women of Country Class of 2021, joining an elite sisterhood of trailblazers and tastemakers. Watch Porter take the stage performing “These Days” for their announcement celebration here. </p>

<p><strong>ABOUT MACKENZIE PORTER: </strong></p>
<p>Singer-songwriter MacKenzie Porter is a rising Country talent whose sound knows no borders. Signed to Big Loud Records, Porter is surging now with DRINKIN’ SONGS: THE COLLECTION, an arsenal of two years’ worth of new music produced by Joey Moi. Since moving to Nashville in 2014 from her native Canada, she’s developed a radiant Country style which threads the needle between traditional heart and modern energy, often collaborating with songwriting mainstays like Nicolle Galyon, Craig Wiseman, Natalie Hemby, and Tommy English. Her "mesmerizing vocals and hook-driven songs" (Billboard) have sparked a list of headline-worthy accolades, including multiple Canadian Country Music Award nominations — 4X Female Artist of the Year, Songwriter of the Year and Fans' Choice — as well as a previous JUNO Award nomination for Country Album of the Year. Making her mark, Porter became the first female artist to have three back-to-back #1 singles at Canadian Country radio in 22 years with “About You,” “These Days” and “Seeing Other People” in early 2020, following Shania Twain in 1998. Porter also earned her first crossover Top 10 at Canadian pop-radio — a first since 2003 for a Canadian female country artist — with "These Days (Remix)," and joined CMT’s elite sisterhood of tastemakers and trailblazers as one of their Next Women of Country class of 2021. The Pandora 2021 Country Artist to Watch has toured extensively on her own, also sharing stages with Kenny Chesney, Rascal Flatts, Chris Lane, Blake Shelton and Dallas Smith, and co-starred in the Netflix series, "Travelers."</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>R.I.P. Charley Pride, March 18, 1934 – December 12, 2020</strong></p>
<p>After news broke Saturday that legendary country musician Charley Pride died of complications from COVID-19, musicians and industry professionals took to social media to honor his career and mourn his death. He was 86 years old.</p>

<p>Becoming a trailblazing Country Music superstar was an improbable destiny for Charley Pride considering his humble beginnings as a sharecropper’s son on a cotton farm in Sledge, Mississippi. His unique journey to the top of the music charts includes a detour through the world of Negro league, minor league, and semi-pro baseball as well as hard years of labor alongside the vulcanic fires of a smelter. But in the end, with boldness, perseverance, and undeniable musical talent, he managed to parlay a series of fortuitous encounters with Nashville insiders into an amazing legacy of hit singles and tens of millions in record sales. </p>
<p>Growing up, Charley was exposed primarily to Blues, Gospel, and Country music. His father inadvertently fostered Charley’s love of Country music by tuning the family’s Philco radio to Nashville’s WSM-AM in order to catch Grand Ole Opry broadcasts. At 14 years of age, Charley purchased his first guitar—a Silvertone from a Sears Roebuck catalog—and taught himself how to play it by listening to the songs that he heard on that radio. </p>
<p>By the age of 16, Charley began emerging as a talented baseball player. He first played organized games in the Iowa State League and then professional games in the Negro American League as a pitcher and outfielder for the Memphis Red Sox. In 1953, he signed a contract with the Boise Yankees, the Class C farm team of the New York Yankees. But during that season a shoulder injury hampered his pitching. He was first sent to the Yankees’ Class D team in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, and then released. Over the next several years, Charley rejoined the Memphis Red Sox, moved to the Louisville Clippers, and then was sold, along with another player, to the Birmingham Black Barons in order to fund a replacement for the Clippers’ broken-down team bus. He also played for the El Paso Kings and the Yaquis in Nogales, Mexico. Upon rejoining the Memphis Red Sox in 1956 he won 14 games as a pitcher and earned himself a position on the Negro American League All-Star Team. It was during the 1956 season that Charley transitioned into a knuckleball pitcher—he had cracked a bone in his elbow early in the season but had managed to recover quickly enough to rejoin the team during the latter half of the season. </p>
<p>As an all-star player in 1956, Charley played against a group of major-league players (the Willie Mays All‑Stars) that included Willie Mays and Hank Aaron. At the end of the season, these teams barnstormed together all over the south playing exhibition games that the major-league all-stars almost always won. However, one October night in Victoria, TX, Charley sealed a rare victory for the negro-league all-stars by closing out a game with 4 innings of shutout ball. </p>
<p>In late 1956 Charley was drafted by Uncle Sam and ordered to report to Fort Chaffee, Arkansas for basic training. During Christmas leave from basic training, he married his wife Rozene, whom he had met earlier in the year while playing baseball in Memphis. After basic training, he was stationed at Fort Carson, near Colorado Springs, Colorado, where he was assigned to quartermaster duty and the baseball team. While serving at Ft. Carson, Charley was known to sing in the barracks and occasionally perform at the officer’s club (which was very unusual for a black man at the time). </p>
<p>The fort’s baseball squad was stacked with baseball talent in 1957 and won the “All Army” sports championship at a tournament at Ft. Knox. In addition to Pride, the team included several other players who had been playing or would go on to play professionally, including George Altman (Cubs, Cardinals, Mets), Willie Kirkland (Giants, Indians, Orioles, Senators), Eddie Kopacz, and J.C. Hartman. </p>
<p>Upon receiving his discharge from the US Army in early 1958, Charley rejoined the Memphis Red Sox and returned to doggedly pursuing his dream of becoming a major league baseball pitcher. As an all-star player again that year, Charley pitched against major league all-stars including Al Smith, Gene Baker, and Ernie Banks. </p>
<p>In 1958, he also made his first attempt to launch his singing career. Charley dropped by 706 Union Avenue in Memphis with his guitar and cut a professionally recorded demo at Sun Studio. Several takes were recorded on a song titled “There’s My Baby (Walkin’)”, a thinly disguised adaption of the 1957 pop hit “The Stroll” by the Diamonds. For better or worse, Charley was still trying to find his voice as a singer and the demo didn’t prove very helpful in furthering his aspirations as a music artist at the time. </p>
<p>In 1960, Charley moved to Montana to play for the Missoula Timberjacks in the Pioneer League but ended up working at a smelter operated by the Anaconda Mining Company and playing for its semi-pro baseball team, the East Helena Smelterites. In 1961, he was invited to try out for the Los Angeles Angels during spring training but found himself heading back home to Helena, Montana after just two weeks in camp. </p>
<p>During the first half of the 1960s, Charley continued to work at the smelter and play baseball for its semi-pro team. But he also began making a name for himself as a local performer by singing the national anthem at baseball games and performing at honky-tonks, churches, and nightclubs in the Helena, Anaconda, and Great Falls areas. In 1962, with the help of Tiny Stokes, a local disc jockey, Charley was introduced to Country singers Red Sovine and Red Foley and invited to perform “Lovesick Blues” and “Heartaches By The Number” during one of their shows. This brief initial encounter with Red Sovine would turn out to be crucial in laying the groundwork for Charley’s future music career. </p>
<p>After a disastrous 1963 tryout with the New York Mets in Clearwater, Florida it became clear that a major league baseball career was not in the cards. Charley chose to return to Montana via Tennessee because Red Sovine had told him that if he ever became serious about a singing career and decided to visit Nashville, he should stop by Cedarwood Publishing, the company that booked Sovine’s shows. </p>
<p>From the Greyhound bus station in Nashville, Charley walked over to Cedarwood’s office and by sheer luck ended up meeting Jack Johnson, who had been actively searching for a promising black Country singer. Johnson made a simply produced recording of Charley performing a couple of songs and then drove him straight back to the bus station with the promise of a management contract. Johnson quickly made good on that promise and it was the beginning of a working relationship that would start off slow, but prove to be very fruitful over the next decade. </p>
<p>While Johnson attempted to stir up interest in Nashville, Charley continued to perform in and around the Montana area. Sometimes he performed as a solo artist and other times as a member of a combo or group. One of these groups, The Night Hawks, was an unusually progressive Country music ensemble for the 1960s. Founded by a young guitarist named Jimmy Owen, the group featured Charley on guitar and vocals, Jimmy’s father George on steel guitar, and a 14-year-old girl by the name of Monty Cowles on the drums! </p>
<p>In Nashville, Johnson ran into significantly more resistance than he had anticipated as he shopped around the crude demo recording that he had made of Charley to the record labels. It wasn’t until 1965 that forward progress was made. Charley returned to Nashville and Johnson introduced him to producer “Cowboy” Jack Clement. Clement gave Charley seven songs to learn and within a week they cut two of these songs – “The Snakes Crawl At Night” and “Atlantic Coastal Line” – during a split studio session with top-notch session players. </p>
<p>Even with the professionally produced sides, Johnson and Clement continued to have a difficult time as they shopped Charley around to the Nashville labels. But finally, in 1966, Chet Atkins, the legendary guitarist, and a rising executive at RCA Records, decided to trust his ears, and with his backing RCA signed Charley. Atkins took Charley under his wing, nurtured his talent, and spearheaded a shrewd promotional campaign that addressed the racial challenges of mid-1960s America. </p>
<p>Charley’s first two singles, “The Snakes Crawl At Night” and “Before I Met You”, set the groundwork for “Just Between You and Me”, which caught fire in 1967, breaking into the Top-10 Country chart and garnering Charley his first GRAMMY® nomination. What happened next is Country Music history. Charley Pride quickly became Country Music’s first black superstar. Between 1967 and 1987, he amassed no fewer than 52 Top-10 Country hits and went on to sell tens of millions of records worldwide. In 1971, Charley won two GRAMMY® Awards related to his Gospel album DID YOU THINK TO PRAY–“Best Sacred Performance, Musical (Non-Classical)” for the album, as well as “Best Gospel Performance Other Than Soul” for the single “Let Me Live.” Later that year, his #1 crossover hit “Kiss An Angel Good Morning” sold over a million singles and helped him to win the Country Music Association’s (CMA) “Entertainer of the Year” award and the “Top Male Vocalist” awards of 1971 and 1972. It also brought him a “Best Male Country Vocal Performance” GRAMMY® Award in 1972. Some of Charley’s unforgettable hits from the 1960s, 1970s, and early 1980s include “All I Have To Offer You Is Me,” “Is Anybody Goin’ To San Antone,” “Amazing Love,” “Mississippi Cotton Pickin’ Delta Town,” “Burgers And Fries,” “Roll On Mississippi” and “Mountain Of Love.” After parting ways with RCA Records in 1986, Charley spent the remainder of the decade releasing albums on the 16th Avenue Records label. </p>
<p>Charley wrote an autobiography in the early 1990s, with the assistance of Jim Henderson, called PRIDE: THE CHARLEY PRIDE STORY. That book covers the events of the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s in significantly more detail. </p>
<p>In 1993, Pride was inducted into the Grand Ole Opry, 26 years after he had first played there as a guest. Charley is always quick to point out that he’d always had an open invitation to join the Opry from as early as his first appearance in 1967. “It was purely an economical decision for me. When I was first invited to join the Opry, they had a requirement at the time that you had to perform 26 Saturdays per year. Fridays and Saturdays were the best days for drawing people to shows and making money out on the road–and my career was starting to take off. So I had to politely decline.” </p>
<p>Many of Pride’s other honors clearly underscore his impact on American Music. In 1994, he was honored by the Academy Of Country Music (ACM) with its prestigious Pioneer Award. In 2000, he was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame. And in 2017, The Recording Academy®, renowned for its GRAMMY® awards, honored Charley with a Lifetime Achievement Award. </p>
<p>As an international superstar, Charley has performed all over the world and continues to tour regularly in the United States, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, The United Kingdom, and Ireland. </p>
<p>Interestingly, Charley’s popularity with many of his Irish and UK fans can be traced back to the insurgent territorial conflict known as “The Troubles.” Characterized by bouts of intense political violence, The Troubles were primarily centered in Northern Ireland. And because of the risks, international music acts were routinely skipping Belfast. In 1975, at the height of The Troubles, legendary Irish concert promoter Jim Aiken flew out to a rural Ohio concert and persuaded Charley not to bypass Belfast during his upcoming European tour. In November 1976, Charley’s appearance at Belfast’s Ritz Cinema brought the community together and he subsequently became a hero to both sides of the conflict for helping to break the informal touring ban of Northern Ireland after several other international music acts such as Rod Stewart and The Rolling Stones followed suit. Shortly thereafter, “Crystal Chandeliers” became considered a ‘unity song’ in Ireland and the UK when it was subsequently released as a single. </p>
<p>Although he no longer dominates the Country radio airplay charts, Charley has never stopped recording new music. Since 1990, Pride has released many new studio albums, including MUSIC IN MY HEART in July 2017. </p>
<p>One of the more surprising aspects of Pride’s rise to fame is how easily he was accepted by the Country music audience once they heard him sing. “People often say to me, ‘You must have had it hard,’ and when I say, ‘No, I didn’t,’ they give me that you-gotta-be-lying look. But there was never one iota hoot-call at any of my shows. The big problem early on was that [concert] promoters were reluctant or scared to book me,” says Pride. “But they finally came around.”</p>

<p>November 19, 2020 (Toronto, ON) — Although 2020 has been a year filled with unknowns, one thing Canada can be sure of is the skyrocketing trajectory of its very own <strong>Manny Blu</strong>. Over the course of the past year Blu has earned international recognition for his signature sound and, today he releases his sophomore album New Ink — a 5-track collection that delivers an edgier, matured sound from the Montreal-native. </p>
<p>"<a contents="New Ink" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://sym.ffm.to/newink_mannyblu"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>New Ink</strong></span></a>, sonically, was made with the intention to go back to the reason I picked up a guitar in the first place -- loud melodic guitars and big drums, with purposeful lyrics and storytelling,” said Blu of the new album. “I wanted it to be what you’re looking to play whether you are in a good or bad mood; something to blast through the speakers!” </p>
<p>With an amplified mix of country twang and a heavy rock & roll attitude, <a contents="New Ink" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://sym.ffm.to/newink_mannyblu"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>New Ink</strong></span></a> brings Blu’s rebellious vibe to the forefront, creating an original sound that highlights his blues and rock upbringing. Influenced by the likes of <strong>Brantley Gilbert</strong>, <strong>The Cadillac Three</strong>, and <strong>Jason Aldean</strong>, each of the 5 tracks heard on <a contents="New Ink" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://sym.ffm.to/newink_mannyblu"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>New Ink</strong></span></a> find a home in the “Outlaw Country” genre and are heavy with rock-based instrumentals. Recorded at <a contents="OmniSound Studios" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.omnisoundstudios.com/"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>OmniSound Studios</strong></span></a> in Nashville and produced by <a contents="Aaron Eshuis" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://twitter.com/aaroneshuis"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Aaron Eshuis</strong></span></a>, <strong><a contents="New Ink" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://sym.ffm.to/newink_mannyblu"><span style="color:#3498db;">New Ink</span></a> </strong>speaks directly to what Blu himself calls the “true heart” of the band’s live shows: “There’s more rock, more soul, and more volume this time around. It’s bigger and louder, but it’s still me. And more importantly, it’s still fun.” </p>

<p><strong>Sink </strong></p>
<p><strong>Born To Ride </strong></p>
<p><strong>Ain’t Got You </strong></p>
<p><strong>Old Money</strong> </p>
<p>In the lead-up to today’s debut, Blu has released three tracks from New Ink including “<a contents="Born to Ride" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://sym.ffm.to/newink_mannyblu"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Born to Ride</strong></span></a>,” “<a contents="Old Money" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://sym.ffm.to/newink_mannyblu"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Old Money</strong></span></a>” and “<a contents="Sink" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://sym.ffm.to/newink_mannyblu"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Sink</strong></span></a>.” The most recent of the trio, “<a contents="Sink" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://sym.ffm.to/newink_mannyblu"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Sink</strong></span></a>,” dropped in September and is an infectious song written by <strong>Josh Osbourne</strong>, <strong>Ryan Tyndell</strong> (Eric Church, Jon Pardi) and <strong>Matt Jenkins</strong> (Kenny Chesney, Florida Georgia Line, Old Dominion), about hitting the bottom of a bottle of Jack while "watching it all go down the sink" after a difficult breakup. Despite the context of the song, “<a contents="Sink" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://sym.ffm.to/newink_mannyblu"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Sink</strong></span></a>” delivers a catchy country/rock sound fueled by a dynamic bass line that brings a steady groove throughout as Blu’s gritty vocals cut through with the storyline. </p>
<p>“<a contents="Old Money" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://sym.ffm.to/newink_mannyblu"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Old Money</strong></span></a>,” one of Blu’s favorite tracks on the EP, came just before “<a contents="Sink" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://sym.ffm.to/newink_mannyblu"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Sink</strong></span></a>”. Co-written by fellow rising star <strong>Brandon Lay</strong>, with <strong>Neil Medley </strong>(Luke Bryan, Brent Cobb, Lindsay Ell) and <strong><a contents="New Ink" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://sym.ffm.to/newink_mannyblu"><span style="color:#3498db;">New Ink</span></a> </strong>producer <strong>Aaron Eshuis</strong>, the song perfectly suits Blu’s distinctive, gravelly voice, building on his rock-inspired sound through a storming, anthemic hook. The acoustic-led verses show he’s unafraid to embrace an early influence from blues artists like B.B. King and John Mayer, before Kristen Rogers joins him in the final chorus to drive the track home with their unique blend of vocals. </p>

<p>After months of remaining off the road and refraining from in-person appearances and performances, Blu celebrated the launch of <span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>New Ink</strong></span> with a live, in-person show at <strong>6th & Peabody</strong> in Nashville, on November 17. </p>
<p>With the help of the popular music venue, Blu is excited to experience live show energy that <a contents="New Ink" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://sym.ffm.to/newink_mannyblu"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>New Ink</strong></span></a> was inspired by, saying, "I'm what some may call a 'road dog,' and I'm proud of that. I can't wait to get out on that stage and share this new music with everyone. <strong>6th & Peabody</strong> has been amazing to work with to make sure everything goes smoothly, and everyone is safe." </p>
<p>When it comes to streaming, 2020 has already been a landmark year for the up-and-coming artist, with nearly 1 Million global streams to date. This year also saw Blu's breakthrough borders by building an international team (US, Canada, and the UK), leading to global recognition. He was named <strong>UK's Country Radio Hit's Champion of the Week</strong> with the release of "<a contents="Old Money" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://sym.ffm.to/newink_mannyblu"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Old Money</strong></span></a>" and <strong>TIDAL's Rising Country Star</strong> with the release of "<a contents="Sink" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://sym.ffm.to/newink_mannyblu"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Sink</strong></span></a>." The pre-released tracks from the upcoming album have also landed coveted playlist spots across <strong>Apple Music</strong>, <strong>Amazon Music</strong>, and <strong>Spotify</strong>. </p>
<p>Blu continues to carve his own path in country music with a sound he introduced through Leave It Like It Is, his debut record (2019) that earned him thousands of new fans and presented him with the opportunity to hit the road. Last spring, Blu spent two months crossing Canada while opening for <strong>George Canyon’s “Hit After Hit Tour</strong>” and then headlined his own Canadian tour to close out the year. Earlier this spring, Blu crossed the US and Canada on another headlining tour. </p>
<p><strong>''Manny Blu's new EP 'New Ink'' has 5 tracks, each bringing that vulnerable place in life about love and loss that we all can relate to. Blu brings that rebellious, edgy blues vibe with his gravelly voice and that rock & roll influence that is really hard-hitting that I love, '' says<a contents=" Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#3498db;"> Kim Cyr</span></a>, Editor in Chief for <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#3498db;">NOW and THEN Magazine</span></a>.</strong></p>

The fun side of <a contents="Jenna and Stuart" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.thereklaws.com/"><span style="color:#6600ff;">Jenna and Stuart</span></a> really plays itself out in each one of the songs that really show the growth of these two singer/songwriters. It's infectious. You can't help but feel you are having fun with your toes tapping and singing right along with them.'' </strong></p>
<p><strong>''This is the 2nd full-length album to be released by <a contents="The Reklaws" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.thereklaws.com/"><span style="color:#6600ff;">The Reklaws</span></a> with real-life stories and lyrics that you can feel that really showcase just how much these two both have grown and honed in the craft of real storytelling. They have tapped into that real emotion you need to connect with your audience. They both feel so strongly about representing real-life experiences that they have lived through their music. It is what I loved when I first met these two who had just come off the stage as the Emerging Artists of the Year at the Boots and Hearts Music Festival years ago. <a contents="The Relaws" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.thereklaws.com/"><span style="color:#6600ff;">The Reklaws</span></a> are one of the hottest country acts in Canadian country music today and this EP shows us why.'' </strong></p>
<p><strong>''Jenna has a beautiful voice that lends itself beautifully to storytelling. She knows how to be vulnerable and allow the lyrics to carry her that delivers the heart of the song. It is really nice to listen to. Stuart, well what can I say? From the shy young guy who played guitar at the festival to the frontman singing the words he lives and breaths, I would say he has found his voice,'' says Cyr. </strong></p>
<p><strong>''This EP is really going to be a lot of fun to hear live and is very radio-friendly.

<p>''I love their sound,'' says Cyr. ''Cory has the instinct to navigate a song with his unique voice and his songwriting skills that can tap into that vulnerable side of himself that delivers everything a great song needs to connect with the fans. He is a true storyteller. Jeff brings his own artistry to the table with his creativity, his ability to bring words to life in the music, the harmonies, and vision that brings the unique sound for <a contents="Lemon Cash" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.lemoncashmusic.com/"><span style="color:#ffff00;"><strong>Lemon Cash</strong></span></a>. I am really excited for them both and for country music.

These two have their finger on what is going to work for the new country music genre. I had so much fun talking with them and getting to know Jeff and Cory. They are so talented. They have such a great opportunity with their new single ''<span style="color:#8e44ad;"><strong>Wine Tonight</strong></span>'' that is set to release in January 2021. They are going to really shake things up on the airwaves for country radio with this one. I got to hear it and just love it. They are kicking off 2021 with such a great song. The award-winning producer, <a contents="Jeff Dalziel" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.sharp9music.com/producer-management-2"><strong>Jeff Dalziel</strong></a> really worked his magic bringing out the best in Jeff and Cory for this song. He just has that amazing gift to connect and read the artists he works with and hon in on exactly what they need to make a hit record. There are some really great stories and lots of laughs talking about their experience working with Jeff. You can hear all of that and so much more. I am giving you all a sneak peek of their new single ''<span style="color:#8e44ad;"><strong>Wine Tonight</strong></span>'' at my interview with them <strong>HERE </strong>so check it out.'' </p>
<p>''Cory and Jeff have been working hard during this difficult year writing with many different songwriters bringing more and more to their writing style. Coming from the rock alternative genre, Cory delivers with his tone and range. I love his voice. I think he has something really special. Cory takes his writing very seriously. He has just started to learn what he is capable of and I am really excited to see his own journey writing music. Jeff has been writing for the first time giving his creativity and ability to put music into his own words with the duo's new music that they are releasing very soon.'' </p>
<p>''What an exciting journey to take with your sibling. To share this dream together is pretty special and such a gift in life. They both have so much to bring to the music industry and this is just the start. Hell, I can't wait for you all to hear and see what this duo has in store for us all. </p>

<p><strong>About Lemon Cash</strong></p>
<p>This home-grown band consists of two brothers: <a contents="Jeff and Cory Papineau" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.lemoncashmusic.com/"><strong>Jeff and Cory Papineau</strong></a>. The band's name earned inspiration from their time as kids running a lemonade stand. The two would come home each day celebrating their hard-earned<span style="color:#ffff00;"> “</span><a contents="lemon cash" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.lemoncashmusic.com/"><span style="color:#ffff00;"><strong>lemon cash</strong></span></a>”. As they grew older, so did their interests (thankfully!) and they developed a passion for making music together. </p>
<p><a contents="Lemon Cash" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.lemoncashmusic.com/"><span style="color:#ffff00;"><strong>Lemon Cash</strong></span></a> formed in 2014 as a cover band playing in front of family and friends in their hometown of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Once they gained experience from playing as a band in front of crowds, they decided to create their own original material and play as an alternative indie-rock band. They played numerous gigs and received lots of radio traction all over the province. After three solid years of playing as a five-piece band, they decided to split up on good terms. </p>
<p> Despite the disappointing turn of events, it did not prevent the brothers from continuing to carry the <a contents="Lemon Cash" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.lemoncashmusic.com/"><span style="color:#ffff00;"><strong>Lemon Cash</strong></span></a> brand name. Looking to evolve their music, they would transition to the country genre. </p>
<p>The inspiration to switch to the country genre is thanks to their parents: Jeff Sr. and Sandra. They introduced Cory and Jeff to country music when the brothers were young. Listening to a wide range of artists such as <strong>Garth Brooks, Brooks & Dunn, Tim McGraw, Joe Diffie, George Jones,</strong> and <strong>George Strait,</strong> the warmth and comforting sound of the country music sound resonated with them growing up and inspired them to create music of their own. </p>
<p>Cory, the vocalist and guitar player of the duo, admires singers like<strong> Kenny Chesney, Bryan Adams,</strong> and <strong>John Mayer</strong>. On the drums, Jeff always had an ear for harmonies and beautiful melodies. He appreciates groups such as <strong>Bee Gees, Beach Boys,</strong> and <strong>Eagles,</strong> all-encompassing that easy listening sound. Although the two brothers seem to have their ears set on older music, there is no question that they are still keeping up with the times and remain in the loop for new music and new sounds to support their creativity. </p>
<p><a contents="Lemon Cash" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.lemoncashmusic.com/"><span style="color:#ffff00;"><strong>Lemon Cash</strong></span></a> recently signed a single-song deal with multi-platinum producer <a contents="Jeff Dalziel" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.sharp9music.com/producer-management-2"><span style="color:#6600ff;"><strong>Jeff Dalziel</strong></span></a>, whose accolades include <strong>2018 CCMA, 2018 CMAO, 2019 CCMA, and 2019 CMAO Producer of the Year</strong>. They are currently working together to form their sound, and they will select the most effective song for production, and connect with singers/songwriters in Nashville to help them expand their musical horizons. </p>
<p><a contents="Lemon Cash" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.lemoncashmusic.com/"><span style="color:#ffff00;"><strong>Lemon Cash</strong></span></a> released their latest EP on October 31, 2019, titled <a contents="Scary Sometimes" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/2QgUS0sRpv7kBOad5vhy7n"><span style="color:#6600ff;"><strong>Scary Sometimes</strong></span></a>. to compile the album, they met with their long-time friend and producer James Robertson to record a handful of original songs. Jumping into the world of country music, <a contents="Lemon Cash" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.lemoncashmusic.com/"><span style="color:#ffff00;"><strong>Lemon Cash</strong></span></a> is off to a heck of a start.

<p>After studying jazz at Humber College in Toronto, Laird packed his bags and moved his life down to Nashville with high hopes of furthering his career as a performer and songwriter at the age of 19. After a few years in Nashville, Laird signed his first publishing deal with <strong>Cherry Lane Music Publishing</strong>. </p>
<p>In December 2008, he received recognition and media attention across The United States and Canada after putting up a billboard on Nashville, Tennessee’s famed music row asking Taylor Swift to produce his album. The billboard displayed Laird in a classroom holding a note reading “Hey Taylor – I LOVE your music. Will you produce my album?” When asked about Laird and his billboard on E! News Weekend, Swift said, “I definitely want to meet him … I listened to one of his songs and absolutely fell in love with it, and I think he’s got great melodies and he’s a great writer. I think he could really be great and be huge, so it’ll be really cool to maybe work with him.” </p>
<p><a contents="Laird" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://ryanlaird.com/"><span style="color:#33ff00;"><strong>Laird</strong></span></a> would go on to sign his first recording contract with <strong>CMT (Canada)</strong> and <strong>Sony Music Entertainment Canada</strong> in 2011, with which he released a music video for his single “<strong>I’m Your Man</strong>” which charted at No. 10 on the <strong>CMT Cross Canada Countdown</strong> and peaked at No. 10 on the <strong>BDS Billboard Canada Country</strong> radio chart. </p>
<p>That same year, Laird was nominated for a <strong>Canadian Radio Music Award</strong> and two <strong>Canadian Country Music Awards</strong>. </p>

Delivering uplifting beauty across seven albums, Amero creates a lasting impression, with an artistic focus in making music that he hopes will be medicine for others. Earlier this year, Amero dropped “<strong>Morning Coffee</strong>” and “<strong>Wouldn’t Be Home</strong>”, and his latest single, the upbeat toe-tapper “<strong>Wasn’t The Dress</strong>” was released September 4th.</p>

<p>The much-anticipated single from <a contents="Andrew Hyatt" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.andrewhyattmusic.com/"><span style="color:#66ff00;"><strong>Andrew Hyatt</strong></span></a> is here! Hyatt, whose unique style has struck a chord with country fans in Canada wide introduces <span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>NEVERLAND</strong></span>! </p>
<p>The story in this beautifully crafted recording is about how the character feels shooting for his dreams and failing is better than doing nothing at all. As the lyrics say, "I don't want to be another coulda-shoulda-been. I want to be the one who gave it all he had". Your listeners will be drawn in by Andrew’s sincere tone and magical delivery. <span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>NEVERLAND</strong></span> is also the title of Andrew’s new EP released on October 30th, 2020. </p>
<p>Named an “<strong>Artist To Watch</strong>” by <strong>Entertainment Tonight Canada</strong>, <strong>2018 SiriusXM Top of the Country</strong> and <strong>CMAO Rising Star winne</strong>r, <a contents="Andrew Hyat" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.andrewhyattmusic.com/"><span style="color:#66ff00;"><strong>Andrew Hyat</strong></span></a><span style="color:#66ff00;"><strong>t</strong></span>, is celebrating the release of his latest single “<strong>I Needed That</strong>”, which amassed over 20k streams in its first week of release. Coming on the heels of Top 15 radio hit “<strong>Didn’t Know Me</strong>” (garnering 1.8 Million streams) and previous back to back top 10’s “<strong>On Me</strong>” and “<strong>Do It With You</strong>”, “<strong>I Needed That</strong>” is the second release from Hyatt’s brand new EP <strong>Neverland</strong>. The Sudbury native has kept busy playing some of Canada’s favorites festivals and touring with artists such as <strong>Dallas Smith</strong>, <strong>Dean Brody</strong>, and <strong>Tim Hicks</strong>. Most recently, Hyatt was a presenter during the 2019 <strong>CCMA Awards</strong> national broadcast and was ready to hit the road with <strong>Gord Bamford</strong>, <strong>Jess Moskaluke</strong>, and more on the <strong>#Rednek MusicFest Tour</strong> before Covid hit.</p>
<p>''There is rarely a time that I am at a loss for words when I hear an EP for review. <a contents="Andrew Hyatt" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.andrewhyattmusic.com/"><span style="color:#66ff00;"><strong>Andrew Hyatt</strong></span></a> released his much-anticipated EP ''<span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Neverland</strong></span>'' and all I could say as I was listening to it was WOW!! Talk about striking while the iron is hot from start to finish. Neverland is full of heart, vulnerability, and emotion right through every song on this EP", says <strong><a contents="Kim Cyr" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.nowandthenmagazine.com">Kim Cyr</a>, Editor in Chief for <a contents="NOW and THEN Magazine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.nowandthenmagazine.com"><span style="color:#6600ff;">NOW and THEN Magazine</span></a></strong>.</p>
<p>Hyatt has got a lot of traction in 2020 thanks to "<strong>Didn't Know Me</strong>" which should be a radio staple well into 2021 and beyond. But it wouldn't be a shock if "<strong>Get Away With Anything</strong>" has the same staying power as "<strong>Didn't Know Me</strong>." Here he has a well-crafted song he hits out of the park. If you didn't know Hyatt yet, you will. </p>
<p><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Neverland</strong></span> was released on October 30, 2020, on <a contents="604&nbsp;Records" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.604records.com/"><span style="color:#2980b9;"><strong>604 Records</strong></span></a>.</p>
<p><a contents="Andrew Hyatt" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.andrewhyattmusic.com/"><span style="color:#66ff00;"><strong>Andrew Hyatt</strong></span></a> does emotion as well as anyone in the genre. When he starts laying out his feelings, it never feels like he’s heavy on them. You instantly connect with the lyrics that build up hitting you hard in the heart. . He is right on target with this EP. You can see Hyatt playing these songs on the bigger stage at concerts and festivals with fans eating up every word or he could play it completely stripped-down in an acoustic set. He could pull it all off with this EP. </p>
<p>Neverland‘s collection of songs also feels like it’s telling the story of Andrew Hyatt continuing his journey in life, not just music. These are story songs that seem to fit the narrative of a man moving onto the next phase of his life, through grace and good fortune and all that go with it.</p>
<p>Andrew Hyatt’s vocal performances, the instrumentation, and the content of the songs on this EP all shine. From the rock vibe guitars and the undeniably country tone to the imagery of a sad man drinking and smoking in his truck, to emotive and clear lyrical delivery, it’s all here. </p>
<p><a contents="Neverland" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6L1jfL0BaxCDXCcy51CEcg?si=aT4P3E5CT0aTfvwEUL-hOA"><span style="color:#2980b9;"><strong>Neverland</strong></span></a> is a win for <a contents="Andrew Hyatt" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.andrewhyattmusic.com/"><span style="color:#66ff00;"><strong>Andrew Hyatt</strong></span></a> and his team. </p>
<p>It feels and shares and when it gets just a little more intense and hard-hitting on that last track, it’s a reminder of those sweaty nights we’ve had watching him in packed bars on small stages with a full band. </p>
<p>And when we get that again we’ll all be able to look at each other and say, I needed that.</p>
<p>This is one of those EP's that should be on everyone's playlist. Don't forget fans, this is a perfect stocking stuffer for the early shoppers. It would be a perfect gift that anyone would love. I mean LOVE!</p>

I think it is so important to showcase songwriters. Many fans don't know the songwriters behind the music they love and share on their playlists. I wanted to have two of Canada's most talented singer-songwriters on today's show. <a contents="Jessie T" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://jessiet.ca/"><span style="color:#6600ff;"><strong>Jessie T</strong></span></a> & <a contents="Carrie DeMaeyer" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.carriedemaeyer.ca%2F%3Ffbclid%3DIwAR3oUxnsiZKYTuaXyOltz0K-TQ771mB9yfbysCypLBIvvmO6RsfV9tQmqno&h=AT0P0ohqFQ7CTQaJnVNAI5T0KRD15P8uCPH8J4ZS8WJIi3k-h3cYc755UQr7ENpqCYuvynNlzz4KNpQsfAz52Y89uaskw6c5ZGcmuQrjrFD3EYk8DyKzWsdS0gtzuQu2Ow"><span style="color:#6600ff;"><strong>Carrie DeMaeyer</strong></span></a> have written so many songs together and their personal music journeys are pretty special.'' </p>

The song is called, ''<strong>Beating Blue</strong>''. </p>
<p>''We talk about how music has a way of becoming a coping tool to help us all deal with life's hurdles. Whether you are going through a breakup, facing personal demons like addiction, mental illness, hurdles in life, or the best moments that bring you joy and happiness like love, family, and friendship, music can mark a moment in time in our lives like nothing else can. You can feel it in your soul the moment you hear the first few chords of a song. It is like having an out of body experience in seconds. You can feel that vulnerability and emotion that pain or love can bring. Music is like memories with glimpses in time with friends and family, full of laughter and joy. Music truly is a journey mapping out an entire lifetime from generation to generation.'' </p>

Her desire to sing and write music was present very early in her life. We talk about her songwriting sessions with Carrie that bring out some pretty special moments between these two singer-songwriters when Jessie was just 15.'' </p>

<p>''We talk '<strong>Mamma's Christmas Cookies</strong>', '<strong>Defying Gravity</strong>', '<strong>Brightlights</strong>', '<strong>Traditions</strong>', and many more.'' </p>
<p>''There are some really special moments that you just need to listen to.

<p style="text-align: center;"><span class="font_xl"><strong>"Family for Christmas" </strong></span></p>
<p>"Family for Christmas" from Jason Blaine is a self-penned holiday song that emotes all of the feelings, longing to be with your family during the Christmas season. Being across the border in Nashville these past months and being separated from his parents & extended family in Pembroke, Ontario this year, this song truly fell out of Jason over the summer when thinking about how the holidays would look this year. It's a simple message of family being the most important part of the holidays and has that classic sound that bends the listener's ear. </p>
<p>This song brings the nostalgia and emotion of an "I'll Be Home For Christmas", while still being classic Jason Blaine and painting a perfect picture through lyrics and melody. A perfect addition to your Christmas playlist this holiday season! </p>
<p>Here's a quick behind the scenes note on the song from Jason: https://youtu.be/oKOX0ogpFho </p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/139421/f7dc9323c5f1f7ef9263e7f27577c341e0325641/original/sean-connery.jpg/!!/b:W10=.jpg" class="size_l justify_center border_" /></p>
<p>Connery, Sir Sean Connery—the Oscar-winning Scottish screen icon who originated the role of James Bond in the long-running film franchise—has died about two months after celebrating his 90th birthday, his family told the BBC Saturday. Connery starred as Agent 007 in six official Bond films and one non-canon entry, the underrated Never Say Never Again, which was released in 1983 when he was 52. </p>
<p>The role that made him a star cast a long shadow—but over the course of his almost 50-year screen career, Connery branched out into a wide variety of character roles made indelible by his distinctive voice (one of the most imitated in film), physicality and sexual charisma. As Alec Baldwin, his The Hunt for Red October co-star, observed in Sean Connery Close Up, a 1997 documentary, “He’s the most physically beautiful man to ever stand in front of a movie camera.” </p>
<p>Even at the height of Bond-mania, Connery endeavored to stretch himself as an actor, citing Burt Lancaster as a role model to The New York Times in 1987. “He was more ready to play less romantic parts, and was more experimental in his choice of roles,” he said. “And that's the way I've tried to be. I've tried to be guided by what was different, what was refreshing, stimulating to me.'' </p>
<p>That is how he wound up in the role of King Agamemnon in Terry Gilliam’s 1981 fantasy, Time Bandits. Connery was Monty Python animator Gilliam’s own fantasy choice for the role, but Gilliam did not think he could afford him. In the script, Gilliam joked, “The warrior took off his helmet, revealing someone that looks exactly like Sean Connery, or an actor of equal but cheaper stature." Connery, a Python fan, stepped in when he learned his participation would help get the film financed, he told The Chicago Tribune in 1989. </p>
<p>Connery’s career flagged in the immediate post-Bond years, but he enjoyed a Seanaissance in the 1980s with three of his most legendary roles. In 1986, he portrayed Juan Sanchez-Villalobos Ramierez, mentor to Christopher Lambert’s Connor McLeod in the cult fantasy, Highlander. The next year, he portrayed Malone, a Chicago cop who taught Kevin Costner’s Elliot Ness “the Chicago way” to get Al Capone in The Untouchables, a role which earned him an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. Two years later, in an inspired bit of casting, he portrayed Professor Henry Jones, Indiana Jones’ dad, in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. </p>
<p>Sidney Lumet, who directed Connery in five films—including the gritty war drama The Hill and the star-studded period mystery Murder on the Orient Express—noted in an interview, “Most actors are either leading men or character actors. Sean is one of the few stars who encompasses both.” </p>
<p>Connery was born Thomas Sean Connery on Aug. 25, 1930. In his 2008 book, Being a Scot, he wrote of growing up impoverished in “my two-room Fountainbridge home in the smoky industrial end of Edinburgh opposite the McCowans' toffee factory. There was no bathroom with a communal toilet outside. For years we had only gas lighting.” </p>
<p>His father worked 12-hour days in a rubber mill and his mother worked as a cleaning woman. Connery himself took a job at the age of nine delivering milk. He left school at 13, joined the Royal Navy at 16, and was discharged three years later due to ulcers. The man who would be Bond shoveled coal, worked as a bricklayer and a coffin polisher. He was also an artist’s model at the Edinburgh Art School. </p>
<p>He took up bodybuilding and while competing in London (as the self-proclaimed “Mr. Scotland”), he was discovered by a casting director who wanted him to join the chorus of the musical South Pacific. Connery credited Robert Henderson, one of the show’s stars, with persuading him to consider acting as a career. Though Connery also thought about becoming a professional soccer player, he decided a life in theater offered more longevity. </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/139421/826342f9bda56c422ca8af3d194a85b58bd1caa8/original/20201031-090903.jpg/!!/b:W10=.jpg" class="size_l justify_center border_" /></p>
<p>Encouraged by Henderson, he became an avid reader of the world’s great works of literature and books about acting. </p>
<p>Prior to being cast as Bond, Connery starred in a variety of television and film projects ranging from the title role in Shakespeare’s Macbeth to a singing Dubliner in Walt Disney’s 1959 fantasy, Darby O’Gill and the Little People. His performance in a 1961 television adaptation of Anna Karenina led to an audition for producers “Cubby” Broccoli and Harry Saltzman, who were bringing Ian Fleming’s Agent 007, with his license to kill, to the big screen in Dr. No. </p>
<p>Among others who were considered or who auditioned for the role were David Niven, Trevor Howard, Cary Grant and Richard Burton, whom Fleming himself championed. As for Connery, a 1961 telex Saltzman sent to Broccoli reveals that Connery did not thrill the suits: “New York did not care for Connery. Feels we can do better.” </p>
<p>But Dr. No and Connery were a sensation. A blunt instrument in Fleming’s books, Connery’s Bond brought a rogish charm and sly humor to the character. (Connery said he supplied Bond’s deadpan jokes and double-entendres.) </p>
<p>With its two sequels, From Russia with Love and Goldfinger, he became an international superstar and tabloid target, much to his growing frustration. In her memoir, Connery’s first wife, actress Diane Cilento, whom he married in 1962, said of the couple’s split in 1971, “The whole damn Bond thing took over our lives.” They divorced in 1973. He married his second wife, painter Micheline Roqubrune in 1975. </p>
<p>Connery made some notable films during his Bond years, including Alfred Hitchcock’s psychological drama Marnie and The Hill, but Bond was his bread and butter. In a 1965 Playboy interview, he griped, “Bond’s been good to me, so I shouldn’t knock him, but I’m fed up to here with the whole Bond bit.” After a four-year hiatus following Thunderball, he officially left the franchise after 1971’s Diamond are Forever. </p>
<p>“It took time for audiences to warm up to Sean Connery away from (Bond),” film historian Leonard Maltin toldThe Hollywood Reporter in 2006. A run of successful films in the mid-1970s broke the Bond mold, with memorable performances in the 1974 ensemble mystery Murder on the Orient Express, the sweeping epic adventures The Wind and the Lion and John Huston’s The Man Who Would Be King, both released in 1975, and the elegiac love story Robin and Marian, in which he portrayed Robin Hood to Audrey Hepburn’s Maid Marian. </p>
<p>In 1983, he appeared for the last time as Bond in Never Say Never Again, a loose remake of Thunderball. “Things have been awfully dull around here,” a character greets him. “I hope we’re going to have some gratuitous sex and violence.” With the original Bond, a memorable villain in Klaus Maria Brandauer’s Largo and a beautiful but deadly Bond fatale in Barbara Carrera’s Fatima Blush, the film was the year’s 13th biggest box office hit, according to Box Office Mojo. </p>
<p>Connery continued to work steadily over the next decade. The Hunt for Red October (1990), The Rock (1996)and Finding Forrester (2000), his penultimate film, further cemented his action and dramatic bona fides. He retired after the disappointing The League of Extraordinary Gentleman, having turned down the role of Dumbledore in the Harry Potter series. But though he had retired from the screen, Connery did lend his voice to Bond video games and documentaries. </p>
<p>Connery’s films endure; several, particularly the Bonds, are basic cable staples. But a generation’s perception of Connery’s persona was shaped by Darrell Hammond’s impeccable and ribald impersonation of the actor on Saturday Night Live’s recurring “Celebrity Jeopardy” sketch. One of the most memorable was “Connery’s” response to the question, “This is the sound a doggy make.” “Moo,” he said, directing his retort to Will Ferrell’s Alex Trebek: “Well that’s the sound your mother made last night.” </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/139421/a3c50e4f911a8df7a9e10b1d69cc4cb398b2ea86/original/16041502888567778603751525616208-370191313841489.jpg/!!/b:W10=.jpg" class="size_l justify_center border_" /></p>
<p>In 2000, Connery was knighted. In 2006, he received the American Film Institute’s Life Achievement Award. “I’m more than pleased you like my work,” he said in his acceptance speech. “I have to admit, it looked pretty damn good from where I was sitting.” </p>
<p>That is how he wound up in the role of King Agamemnon in Terry Gilliam’s 1981 fantasy, Time Bandits. Connery was Monty Python animator Gilliam’s own fantasy choice for the role, but Gilliam did not think he could afford him.

<p> </p>
<p>Connery was devoted to his native Scotland and used his stature to press for the re-establishment of a Scottish parliament. When the body reconvened in 1999, 296 years after its last meeting, Connery was invited to address the first session, where he was greeted with a thunderous ovation. The next year, when he was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II — an honor he called “one of the proudest days of my life” — he asked that the investiture be performed in Edinburgh. </p>
<p>Connery published his autobiography, “Being a Scot,” co-written with Murray Grigor, in 2008. Besides his knighthood and his Academy Award, he received many kudos over his long career, including the Kennedy Center Honors in 1999 and the American Film Institute’s lifetime achievement award in 2006. </p>
<p>Connery was married to actress Diane Cilento from 1962-73. The couple divorced in 1973 and Cilento died in 2011. Connery is survived by his second wife, painter Micheline Roquebrune, whom he married in 1975; his son by Cilento, actor Jason Connery; and a grandson from Jason’s marriage to actress Mia Sara.</p>

<p>Michelle Wright ended a hectic 2019 touring season with the overwhelming success of her almost three weeks long A Wright Christmas: 2019 Tour. She once again showed audiences across the Ontario and Alberta provinces of Canada why her expressive voice and her distinctive style has earned her twenty‐five Top Ten radio hits, more than forty major awards (including her 2011 induction into the Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame) and sold millions of records.</p>
<p>Growing up in Merlin, Ontario, a small Canadian farming community near Chatham, Michelle heard the rhythm & blues and Motown hits coming out of Detroit, just forty‐five minutes away. But especially she heard the strains of country music since her parents were both country performers. “My earliest memories of music are singing in the car, or spending the weekend with my father after my parents separated and watching him put on a rhinestone‐studded suit to perform in.” As a young girl, she tagged along to countless shows. “We were never a family band, but I got a lot of inspiration and encouragement from my mother. That’s where my love of country music really began.”</p>
<p>In 1988, she teamed with Savannah Records President Brian Ferriman to release her first CD, Do Right By Me, in Canada and set off to tour North America. Do Right By Me was a major hit in her homeland, with seven chart singles and sales well over 40,000 copies, and it opened many doors in the United States. The American country music world was impressed, and the new Arista/Nashville label made Michelle one of its flagship artists.</p>
<p>The following year she signed with Arista/Nashville and in 1990, Michelle released her first U.S. album, Michelle Wright. American audiences responded immediately and enthusiastically to “that girl singer from up north with the snow in her videos,” and her first single, “New Kind Of Love,” became her first Top Thirty American hit.</p>
<p>In 1992, Arista released Now & Then, which included the song “Take It Like A Man,” “Take It Like A Man” was released in February of 1992, the first of seven singles from the project, and in less than a year Michelle became the first Canadian‐born artist in the modern era of country music to have a Top Ten hit in America, a Number One video on CMT‐USA (also for “Take It Like A Man”) and to win a major U.S. music industry award (the Academy of Country Music Top New Female Vocalist award in 1992). The song also catapulted Michelle to superstardom in Canada, receiving a total of twelve music industry awards, including the 1993 Canadian Country Music Association's Fans' Choice Entertainer Of The Year award and double platinum honors for Now & Then the same year.</p>
<p>The Reasons Why followed in 1994. After co‐hosting the TNN/Music City News Awards the same year and hosting the CCMA Awards in 1995, her ease in front of the camera led to her guest appearance on the syndicated series “Due South.” For Me It’s You (1996) marked the first time one of Michelle's own songs, the stirring “What Love Looks Like,” was made available to her American fans. At the 1997 CCMA Awards, she delivered a show‐stopping, gospel‐tinged rendition of the Curtis Mayfield hit, “People Get Ready,” accompanied by a fifty‐voice choir. A personal career highlight for Michelle, she reflects, “I still get goose bumps whenever I hear that version.”</p>
<p>“Your Love,” Michelle’s 1998 collaboration with pianist Jim Brickman, was named the CCMA Vocal/Instrumental Collaboration of the Year and the video for “Your Love” topped the CMT Canada charts. The success of “Your Love” did not go unnoticed by Brickman’s label, New York based Windham Hill Records. The collaboration was included on Brickman’s CD Destiny and released to U.S. Adult Contemporary radio in October 1999. The song became a Top 20 AC hit in early 2000.</p>
<p>At the dawn of the new millennium, Michelle marked her ten‐year association with Arista/ Nashville with the international release of her latest American album, Michelle Wright: The Greatest Hits Collection. The album contained eleven of the songs that shaped Michelle's career since she signed with the label. They appeared in near‐chronological order, rolling out the soundtrack of Michelle's life: “New Kind Of Love,” “All You Really Wanna Do,” “Take It Like a Man,” “He Would Be Sixteen,” “Guitar Talk,” “Now & Then,” “One Good Man,” “Safe In The Arms Of Love,” “Nobody's Girl,” “What Love Looks Like,” and “The Answer Is Yes.” The album also contained five songs never before found on a Michelle Wright album: two new songs co‐ written by Michelle, “When I Found You” and “I Surrender,” plus “Your Love,” her gospel version of “People Get Ready,” and her “Walkin' After Midnight” duet with Patsy Cline.</p>
<p>Michelle Wright: The Greatest Hits Collection offered listeners a sonic overview of ten magical years punctuated by highlight after memorable highlight. Michelle is proud of the achievement her Greatest Hits Collection represents. “It felt great to be at that point in my career. Very early on, when I first hit the road with a bunch of guys, crisscrossing North America in an old van, sleeping in the back on top of a couple of Peavey guitar amps, I could only dream about having enough hits to make a greatest hits package. And then there we were.”</p>
<p>The twenty‐first century saw five more CDs from Michelle generating more sales and more hits: Shut Up and Kiss Me (Sony/BMG 2002); her first Christmas album, A Wright Christmas, released in Canada in 2005 and internationally on Savannah Music at Christmas time, 2008; her first full album of country material in ten years, Everything And More, released in Canada in July, 2006, and internationally on Savannah Music in late 2008; the Savannah Music reissue of a remastered and repackaged edition of Do Right By Me across North America in August 2010 and internationally the following October; The Wright Songs: An Acoustic Evening with Michelle Wright, a 17‐song collection of many of her hits performed on acoustic instruments and recorded live in Alberta at select venues during 2009 and 2010, released in Canada in late 2011 and internationally in early 2012 on Savannah Music.</p>
<p>Strong (2013) highlighted Michelle’s remarkable growth as a singer and songwriter ‐ inspired by the perseverance and strength that she has witnessed in friends, family, and strangers over the 3 | P a g e years. The album was produced by Jason Barry, Eric Silver, and Danick Dupelle and contained 11 songs,10 of which she co‐wrote.</p>
<p>Michelle continued to divide her time between touring and songwriting, but in late 2016, with a new team behind her, Michelle knew that it was time to head back into the studio. “My music is always an extension of me,” says Wright, “And each new song is a chance to push a little harder, to dig a little deeper.” In 2017, she enlisted the help of producer, friend and fellow Canadian Bob Funk to sort through the mountain of songs she had written, co-written and received from other writers. The results are an intoxicating mix of contemporary country and the R&B roots that have been the foundation of her musical journey since the very beginning.</p>
<p>The partnership has produced the groovin’ “Attitude Is Everything” (Daryl Burgess/Joanna Cotton), the gospel-tinged ballad, “Lovin’ This Day” (Daryl Burgess, Joanna Cotton/Angie Russell) and Michelle’s brand new rendition of the Christmas Classic, “Silver Bells.” All three tracks were released by Wright's new label, Navigator Records.</p>
<p>Michelle Wright is poised for the next phase of what has already been a stellar international musical career, one that has seen her grace concert stages across North America, Europe, Africa, South America, Australia and Asia. Michelle continues to show her fans that the feisty girl from rural Merlin, Ontario is here to stay. Or as she says, “What a way to make a living! I plan on making and playing music for a long time to come.”</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><span class="font_large"><strong>Canadian Country Artist <a contents="Dani Strong" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.danistrong.com/"><span style="color:#ff0000;">Dani Strong</span></a> Released Sophomore Album <span style="color:#6600ff;">''</span><a contents="Undefine" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/album/1161506901?app=itunes&ls=1"><span style="color:#6600ff;">Undefine</span></a><span style="color:#6600ff;">d</span>'' today on Oct. 23 </strong></span></p>
<p>Toronto, ON – Rising country music powerhouse <strong>Dani Strong</strong> is poised to make a lot of noise with the release of her second album, <a contents="Undefined" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/album/1161506901?app=itunes&ls=1"><span style="color:#6600ff;"><strong>Undefined</strong></span></a>, available physically and on all streaming platforms Oct. 23. Working with JUNO-winning producer/engineer Dan Brodbeck, who also produced her 2016 debut album <strong>Time To Breathe</strong>, Dani lives up to her name on this new collection of 13 songs, which offer messages of strength, hope, and empowerment. </p>
<p>Fans received a taste earlier this year when the single “<strong>Wild Summer</strong>” was released in time for the change of season, racking up over 600K streams on Apple Music. Undefined’s opening cut, “<strong>Not Right Now</strong>,” was also featured in the Amazon Prime movie Hometown Holiday. The album’s latest single, “<strong>Mrs. Jones (Evelyn)</strong>,” displays the full range of Dani’s storytelling skills by painting a vivid portrait of a woman whose pursuit of material wealth has left her alone. The single won the title of <strong>Best Country Song at the 2020 Independent Music Awards</strong>. </p>
<p>It’s all part of what made the title <strong>Undefined</strong> the most natural choice for the album, as Dani explains. “The hardest thing for me to do as a songwriter is to define my sound or genre,” she says. “I have always fancied myself a fairly diverse writer. For better or worse, it’s pretty hard to pick just one box to put myself into. So for this record, I said, ‘f$*# it, I’m just going to record songs that mean a lot to me—and hopefully others—and put them all on one record! My goal as a writer is to give the listener something they can relate to, or lean on and I believe there is a lot of potential for that in this album for my listeners." </p>
<p>Splitting her time between B.C. and Ontario over the past several years, Dani has earned consistent praise for her performances at such prestigious events as Boots & Hearts, the Calgary Stampede, Canadian Music Week, and Burlington, Ontario’s Sound Of Music Festival. She has also opened for a wide range of country stars, including Luke Bryan, The Road Hammers, Meghan Patrick, and Tebey. </p>
<p>Dani’s plans to hit the road again this year were set aside after she completed Undefined just before pandemic restrictions were put into place. However, now settled in Kimberley B.C., she embraced having more time to spend with her husband and children, hiking, camping, and generally embracing her new digs, a feeling captured on one of Undefined’s most uplifting numbers, “Mountains.” </p>
<p>Still, rest assured that as soon as she is able, Dani and her longtime band will be back out there, transferring the energy of Undefined to stages, and proving without a shadow of a doubt that she is one of Canada’s most exciting and dynamic country music singer/songwriters. </p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Luke Bryan Thanks His Mother for Crashing His "One Margarita" Video Shoot</strong></p>
<p>Just about ten minutes into Wednesday night’s (Oct. 21) 2020 CMT Music Awards, things started getting really memorable really fast. Luke Combs shotgunned a beer from Kix Brooks. Musicians were wearing masks. And socially distanced fans were watching it go down from the bank along the Cumberland River in downtown Nashville. It was appropriately unprecedented. </p>

<p>1. One of the first artists of the night to win a CMT Music Award was Dan + Shay. <br>When the duo’s video for “I Should Probably Go To Bed” won the Duo Video of the Year award, they were gracious and grateful, as usual. “Thank you, CMT. Thank you so much for being in our corner since day one. It truly means the world,” Dan Smyers said. “To our fans: thank you so much for continuing to support us. You guys change our lives every single day.” Shay Mooney added to that by telling the fans, “We would not be where we are without you guys. And to our families, thank you for supporting and inspiring our music. And it’s amazing to get to do music with my best friend.”</p>

<p>2. Carrie Underwood was the next big winner of the night, when her “Drinking Alone” won Female Video of the Year. <br>“Thank you, CMT, first and foremost for still having this night, still giving us all something to look forward to and still having fun even though we’re not all right there hanging out together like we usually are. Thank you fans so much for voting. I haven’t got to see you guys hardly at all this year. Stuff like this means so much to me and just lets me know you’re still doing what you do, which is just giving the love. And I hope you feel it right back from me, because you guys are so amazing,” Underwood shared. “I don’t deserve you.”</p>

<p>3. Then Jennifer Nettles accepted CMT’s very first Equal Play award. <br>The honor was given to Nettles for her ongoing advocacy for women and for all diverse voices in the music industry, as she works to have more female voices heard on country music radio stations. “I have been so excited about this that I put on eye shadow, and that’s been a while. Thank you so much for this honor, CMT,” Nettles said. “Thank you to all the fans, and especially all the artists — my sisters out there — who continue to burn the holy fire. I am so proud to be a part of this legacy of women in country music with you, and I am so proud of the stories that we tell.”</p>

<p>4. The award for the CMT Performance of the Year went to Chris Young for his heartbreaking CMT Artists of the Year performance of his ballad “Drowning.” <br>“Man, this means so much to me,” Young said. “A huge, huge thank you to anybody who voted for this. This is all because of you. The reason that I’m here is because of you guys. I love y’all so much. CMT, thank you for this opportunity, especially for this song. Anyone who works with me knows not only how much this award means to me, but specifically for this performance of this song. I stepped in for Kane (Brown). He had just tragically lost a really close friend of his and that was really the meaning of this song. I knew a little bit about what he was going through and I know that was super emotional for him. And it was a really difficult moment for me to get up there and play that know that he was watching. But I was honored to step in and play this song.”</p>

<p>5. Luke Bryan’s “One Margarita” won the CMT Music Award for Male Video of the Year, and he was visibly humbled and honored. <br>“Thank you, thank you, thank you. All of the fans out there who voted for the video, all of the people down at Crash My Playa, and my mother,” Bryan said. “I want to thank my mother for crashing my video and being the star. I certainly want to thank my wife Caroline, and Charles Kelley and his wife Cassie. It was such a fun video to do, and it was shot before we all went into quarantine, so it kind of gives us a glimpse of life and having fun before we all had to deal with this pandemic together.”</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><iframe class="justify_inline" data-video-type="youtube" data-video-id="YEq-cvq_cK4" data-video-thumb-url="https://img.youtube.com/vi/YEq-cvq_cK4/mqdefault.jpg" type="text/html" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/YEq-cvq_cK4?rel=0&wmode=transparent&enablejsapi=1" frameborder="0" height="180" width="320" allowfullscreen="true"></iframe></p>
<p>6. Next up was the CMT Music Award for Group Video of the Year, which went to Old Dominion for “One Man Band.” <br>The band’s frontman Matt Ramsey spoke on behalf of the five-man band, saying, “Super excited about this. This song has been so big for us, and this video was so amazing. We’re so proud of it, we’re so thankful for our whole team and to have each other to go through this with. Thank you fans, for supporting us and voting for us.” Then he grabbed the video’s director — Mason Allen — to join the group so that the fans watching at home could see who was behind the scenes of the award-winning video.</p>

<p>7. Shania Twain performing ''Who's Bed Has Your Boots Been Under'' from Switzerland taking the 2020 CMT Music Awards International!</p>
<p>The 55-year-old country icon performed from Switzerland for the awards show that aired on Wednesday (October 21). For her performance, Shania sang one of her classic hits “Whose Bed Have Your Boots Been Under?” while dancing around the Charlie Chaplin museum named Chaplin’s World.</p>
<p>Shania has been quarantining in Switzerland with her husband Frédéric Thiébaud. If you didn’t know, Frédéric is Swiss and he and Shania have a house in Switzerland, where they spend a lot of their time.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;">12. Close to the end of the show, Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani were there to pick up their award for Collaborative Video of the Year for “Nobody But You.” </p>
<p>“We did it,” Shelton said as her hugged his girlfriend. “Absolutely unbelievable. First of all, thank you Gwen Stefani. I told Gwen that when I saw who the other nominees were in our category, literally, it was like, ’Well. It would’ve been cool, but I don’t know what our chances of beating Justin Bieber are.’ (Bieber and Dan + Shay’s “10,000 Hours” was one of the other nominees.) But here we are. So thank you so much, first of all, to the fans. I really do believe that these awards shows are beginning to lose credibility over the last few years, and fan-voted awards to me are really the only stand-up awards shows left in our industry it feels like sometimes. Because you guys are the ones who buy the records, you come to the shows, and you vote on all these things. We love y’all so much,” Shelton said as he and Stefani raised their martini glasses in a toast to their extremely loyal fans.</p>

<p>Guitar at the ready, attitude on point, two women walk into the room in red, black, and white...</p>
<p>If they stepped out of a frame from a Quentin Tarantino flick, no one would question it. The sister duo—Charlotte and Sarah Command—turn life’s ups and downs into alternative music underpinned by live instrumentation and bold production. From music to fashion, the Toronto band makes a statement with everything they do.</p>
<p>“It started with red,” says Sarah. “I wanted a color that would symbolize the power of our last name,‘Command.’ Along with love and heartbreak, red resembles boldness. I needed that. For the majority of my life, I wasn’t a very confident person. Then, we embraced black-and-white, because we are a yin and yang, my sister and I. Our look reflects our synergy; the songs that Charlotte writes partnered with the instrumentation I bring. This is our identity.”</p>
<p>The sisters worked towards crystallizing that identity since childhood in small-town Alberta. As children, they started harmonizing together before eventually performing local shows. In middle school, they cut their teeth on the country music circuit, packing the Bluebird Café in Nashville, touring Asia, emerging victorious at the John Lennon Songwriting Contest, and performing for Yoko Ono during the celebration of John Lennon’s 75thbirthday.</p>
<p>In 2016, they settled in Toronto, and the move represented a turning point. Embedding themselves in the scene, they honed a combination of killer songcraft, social media savvy, and IDGAF style.</p>
<p>“Growing up in a small town, I feel like I wasn’t really being who I am as a person,” admits Sarah. “I was assessing myself due to the culture and the people around me. I dropped out of high school because I was bullied really badly. When we got to Toronto, we were surrounded by so many different types of identities and found support for who we are.”</p>
<p>“In Toronto, you feel like you can be yourself and be accepted,” Sarah continues. “We took all of these pictures in crazy red outfits and would show up to events like that. We decided to share what we were doing, and we found a community on Instagram that supported being loud and being ourselves. Tattoos and piercings were a symbol of us becoming who we are as sisters in a band and not being afraid,” she says, highlighting that many of her musical heroes are represented in her tattoos.</p>
<p>They immediately hit the studio and focused on crafting a scorching sonic style influenced by everyone from 1975 to Alanis Morissette, Hall & Oates to Lenny Kravitz. Sarah drew on a lifelong love of shred gods such as Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, and Orianthi, as Charlotte nodded to the songcraft of Sia and The Weeknd, cultivating a sharp signature sound steeped in mind-blowing musicality and tight hooks.</p>
<p>As they attracted a growing following, they ignited stages on both sides of the border in addition to forming coveted relationships with Martin Guitars, PRS Guitars, Marshall Amps, MAC Cosmetics, and Boss/Roland, to name a few. Along the way, they inked a deal with 21 Entertainment / Universal Music Canada / Republic Records.</p>
<p>“I’m inspired by songwriting that tells a story and resonates on a deeper level,” Charlotte reveals. “I want to display emotion in brutally honest lyrics and disruptive production on a sonic level. A twist of our two loves: alternative and anthemic music.”</p>
<p>They introduce this style on their debut single “I Can Do What I Want To,” recorded in LA with Tim Pagnotta (Walk The Moon, Weezer, Blink 182, Neon Trees). The title says it all -embodying empowerment, standing up for yourself, and not asking for anyone’s permission -something the band knows all too well as they were first coming up in the music industry.</p>
<p>“It really pissed me off,” says Sarah in response to hearing over and over that another girl band would never cut through. “We’ve heard so many times, why should anyone care about another ‘female’ rock duo, but we decided that we weren’t going to listen to anyone else but what our gut told us. This song is about doing what you want and not apologizing for it.”</p>
<p>The song is accompanied by a D.I.Y. music video directed by the band and shot on an iPhone in their apartment during the quarantine. A visual so strong you’d think it was shot on a soundstage by a big name director...but once again the band has proven they can do it themselves, their way, regardless of life’s challenges. “Command Sisters is my sister Charlotte writing these songs while I create the image that embodies our music. We want our world to be something you can’t look away from even if you try to,” Sarah says.</p>
<p>“We’re two sisters who love making music,” Charlotte leaves off. “I want listeners to see that. We pour our hearts and souls into this. Hopefully, it makes you feel something.”</p>
<p>“On a deeper level, this feels like our life purpose,” Sarah concludes. “We try to make our music and career an example of perseverance, staying strong, and continuing to follow your passion.”</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><span class="font_large"><strong>Rocker Eddie Van Halen died Tuesday morning at the age of 65 from throat cancer. </strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Wolfgang Van Halen, 29, posted a message to his Twitter page announcing his father’s death.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/139421/7306a6a93dadbb9721ce3af097574e7c02611740/original/2020-10-06-18-17-43.jpg/!!/b:W10=.jpg" class="size_l justify_center border_" /></p>
<p>The legendary rock star and guitarist had been suffering from cancer for more than a decade. </p>
<p>Van Halen is considered to be one of the greatest guitar players of all time, and one of the kings of the rock genre. The band was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2007. </p>
<p>He is survived by his wife, Janie Liszewski, 50, and his son Wolf, 29, from his previous marriage to Valerie Bertinelli, 60.</p>
<p>Hollywood took to social media to mourn Van Halen’s death. From the likes of Sammy Hagar to Gene Simmons to Jimmy Kimmel, stars are paying tribute to the late musician:</p>

<p>His son also confirmed his death and the cause on Twitter. </p>
<p>"I can't believe I'm having to write this but my father, Edward Lodewijk Van Halen, has lost his long and arduous battle with cancer this morning," Wolfgang Van Halen said in the tweet. </p>
<p>With his distinct solos, Eddie Van Halen fuelled the ultimate California party band and helped knock disco off the charts starting in the late 1970s with his band's self-titled debut album and then with the blockbuster record 1984, which contains the classics Jump, Panama and Hot for Teacher.</p>
<p>Van Halen is among the top 20 best-selling artists of all time and the band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2007. </p>
<p>Rolling Stone magazine put Eddie Van Halen at No. 8 in its list of the 100 greatest guitarists.</p>
<p>Eddie Van Halen was something of a musical contradiction. He was an autodidact who could play almost any instrument, but he couldn't read music. He was a classically trained pianist who also created some of the most distinctive guitar riffs in rock history. He was a Dutch immigrant who was considered one of the greatest American guitarists of his generation. </p>
<p>The members of Van Halen — the two Van Halen brothers, Eddie and Alex; vocalist David Lee Roth; and bassist Michael Anthony — formed in 1974 in Pasadena, Calif. </p>
<p>They were members of rival high school bands and then attended Pasadena City College together. They combined to form the band Mammoth, but then changed to Van Halen after discovering there was another band called Mammoth.</p>
<p>Their 1978 release Van Halen opened with a blistering Runnin' With the Devil and then Eddie Van Halen showed off his astonishing skills in the next song, Eruption, a furious one-and-a-half minute guitar solo that swoops and soars like a deranged bird. The album also contained a cover of the Kinks' You Really Got Me and Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love. </p>
<p>Mike McCready of Pearl Jam told Rolling Stone magazine that listening to Van Halen's Eruption was like hearing Mozart for the first time. "He gets sounds that aren't necessarily guitar sounds — a lot of harmonics, textures that happen just because of how he picks." </p>
<p>Van Halen released albums on a yearly timetable — Van Halen II (1979), Women and Children First (1980), Fair Warning (1981) and Diver Down (1982) — until the monumental 1984, which hit No. 2 on the Billboard 200 album charts (only behind Michael Jackson's Thriller).</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/139421/b428659ac007faecd26868c3e6da56395073ab3f/original/van-halen-performs-beat-it-with-michael-jackson-at-a-concert-in-irving-texas-in-july-1984-carlos-osorio-the-associated-press.jpg/!!/b:W10=.jpg" class="size_l justify_center border_" /></p>
<p>Rolling Stone ranked 1984 No. 81 on its list of the 100 Greatest Albums of the 1980s. </p>
<p>"Eddie put the smile back in rock guitar, at a time when it was all getting a bit brooding. He also scared the hell out of a million guitarists around the world, because he was so damn good. And original," Joe Satriani, a fellow virtuoso, told Billboard in 2015. </p>
<p>Van Halen also played guitar on one of the biggest singles of the 1980s: Jackson's Beat It. His solo lasted all of 20 seconds and took only a half an hour to record. He did it for free, as a favour to producer Quincy Jones, while the rest of his Van Halen bandmates were out of town.</p>
<p>Van Halen received no compensation or credit for the work, even though he rearranged the section he played on. </p>
<p>"It was 20 minutes of my life. I didn't want anything for doing that," he told Billboard in 2015. "I literally thought to myself, 'Who is possibly going to know if I play on this kid's record?"' </p>
<p>Rolling Stone ranked Beat It No. 344 on its list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. Jackson's melding of hard rock and R&B preceded the meeting of Run-DMC and Aerosmith by four years.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/139421/0df1d1e0500e77ab1176d89545fa731c9393dade/original/billy-idol.jpg/!!/b:W10=.jpg" class="size_l justify_center border_" /></p>
<p>But strains between Roth and the band erupted after their 1984 world tour and Roth left. </p>
<p>The group then recruited Sammy Hagar as lead singer — some critics called the new formulation "Van Hagar" — and the band went on to score its first No. 1 album with 5150, More studio albums followed, including OU812, For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge and Balance. Hit singles included Why Can't This Be Love and When It's Love. </p>
<p>Hagar was ousted in 1996 and former Extreme singer Gary Cherone stepped in for the album Van Halen III, a stumble that led to his quick departure. Roth would eventually return in 2007 and team up with the Van Halen brothers, with Wolfgang Van Halen on bass, for a tour and the albums A Different Kind of Truth in 2012 and Tokyo Dome Live in Concert in 2015.</p>

<p>Van Halen's music has appeared in films as varied as Superbad, Minions and Sing as well as TV shows like Glee and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Video games such as Gran Turismo 4 and Guitar Hero have used his riffs. Their song Jamie's Cryin was sampled by rapper Tone Loc in his hit Wild Thing. </p>
<p>Eddie Van Halen was born in Amsterdam and his family immigrated to California in 1962 when he was seven. His father was a big band clarinetist who rarely found work after coming to the U.S., and their mother was a maid who had dreams of her sons being classical pianists. The Van Halens shared a house with three other families. Eddie and Alex had only each other, a tight relationship that flowed through their music. </p>
<p>"We showed up here with the equivalent of $50 and a piano," Eddie Van Halen told The Associated Press in 2015. "We came halfway around the world without money, without a set job, no place to live and couldn't even speak the language." </p>
<p>He said his earliest memories of music were banging pots and pans together, marching to John Philip Sousa marches. At one point, Eddie got a drum set, which his older brother coveted.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/139421/cda7a09588803fd8b6b263fb1dd16cecf975161c/original/tonnyiommi.jpg/!!/b:W10=.jpg" class="size_l justify_center border_" /></p>
<p>"I never wanted to play guitar," he confessed at a talk at the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History in 2015. But his brother was good at the drums, so Eddie gave into his brother's wishes: "I said, 'Go ahead, take my drums. I'll play your damn guitar."' </p>
<p>He was a relentless experimenter who would solder different parts from different guitar-makers, including Gibson and Fender. He created his own graphic design for his guitars by adding tape to the instruments and then spray-painting them. He said his influences were Eric Clapton and Jimi Hendrix. </p>
<p>Van Halen, sober since 2008, lost one-third of his tongue to a cancer that eventually drifted into his esophagus. In 1999, he had a hip replacement.

<p>On the meaning behind the song, Command Sisters say, “‘<a contents="Lonely Lullaby" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://commandsisters.lnk.to/_ICDWIWT"><strong>Lonely Lullaby</strong></a>’ is about those chaotic and addictive relationships most of us have in our early 20s...you know you need to leave, but you stay. It’s toxic, yet you only find comfort from the one that causes you pain. They are your ‘reason and your remedy.’ They are your <strong>‘<a contents="Lonely Lullaby" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://commandsisters.lnk.to/_ICDWIWT">Lonely Lullaby</a></strong>.’” </p>
<p>“<a contents="Lonely Lullaby" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://commandsisters.lnk.to/_ICDWIWT"><strong>Lonely Lullaby</strong></a>” arrives on the heels of their debut single, “<strong>I Can Do What I Want To</strong>” and its follow-up “<strong>I Like It</strong>,” which Billboard praised as “a catchy, guitar-driven track about a fiery, undeniable attraction.” All three tracks were recorded in Los Angeles with award-winning producer Tim Pagnotta (Walk The Moon, Weezer, Blink 182, Neon Trees). “<a contents="Lonely Lullaby" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://commandsisters.lnk.to/_ICDWIWT"><strong>Lonely Lullaby</strong></a>” also sets the stage for their debut EP, slated for the top of 2021. </p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><span class="font_xl"><strong>Julia Michaels </strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span class="font_xl"><strong>"Lie Like This" </strong></span></p>
<p>Grammy® Award-nominated multiplatinum singer and songwriter JULIA MICHAELS is back with her first solo release of 2020 and highly anticipated brand-new single, “Lie Like This,” today. </p>
<p>Produced by The Monsters & Strangerz [Dua Lipa, Halsey, Maroon 5], the track exudes dancefloor energy with a rapid BPM and neon synths. Her intimate delivery builds with the beat towards a hummable hook. With its glossy soundscape and uncontainable spirit, “Lie Like This” shows another side of Julia representative of her penchant for pushing boundaries. </p>
<p>Regarding the song, she shared, “It’s about being hesitant about this new, beautiful thing and just giving in anyway, because you know that it’s really special. There are so many spectrums of love. One minute, you're crying on the floor because you've been broken up with or something didn't work out the way that you wanted to. Then, all of a sudden, you're kissing in a park and you're holding hands with someone new and you've got all these butterflies. It's just such a broad spectrum, such a range of emotions—love—and I wanted to distill its essence into a song.” </p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><span class="font_xl"><strong>''Lightning Dont Strike Twice</strong></span></p>
<p>Award winning country music artist Mike Robins, released his new single “<strong>Lightning Don’t Strike Twice</strong>” October 2nd via all streaming services. The track is a return to form for Mike as he delivers a romantic song about feeling that once in a lifetime kind of love unlike anything else. </p>
<p>Mike exploded on the country music scene in 2013 with his group Autumn Hill, achieving radio success with multiple top 10 and 20 singles including “<strong>Anything At All,” “Mixtape</strong>,” and “<strong>Can’t Keep Waiting</strong>.” The music video for the groups hit single “Blame” also topped the CMT charts reaching #1. Following the success of Autumn Hill, Mike continued to grow working on a side project, East Adelaide. As part of Autumn Hill, Mike has been nominated for 4 <strong>Canadian Country Music Awards</strong>, 2 <strong>JUNO Awards</strong>, and 5 <strong>Country Music Association of Ontario Awards</strong>, and won awards for the <strong>CMAO’s Rising Star</strong> and <strong>Best Group/Duo</strong>. </p>
<p>Mike has shared the stage with incredible artists including Keith Urban, Dierks Bentley, Florida Georgia Line, Dean Brody, Dallas Smith, and Tim McGraw and has performed at major Festivals such as Boots and Hearts, Havelock Jamboree, Country Thunder, Cavendish Beach Fest, The Calgary Stampede, and Big Valley Jamboree. </p>
<p>Now branching out on his own as a solo artist, this accomplished singer/songwriter/guitarist continues to grow and deliver. Often being compared to artists like John Mayer and Keith Urban, Mike’s new music showcases his soulful smooth vocals, raw emotion, and electrifying guitar work. Mike’s songs continue to be deeply rooted in country music’s long tradition of storytelling. His fresh sounding debut single “Lighting Don’t Strike Twice” dropped October 2nd 2020, and is already creating quite a buzz within the industry. Armed with new music, there is no denying that the best is yet to come from Mike Robins.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><span class="font_xl"><strong>THE RECORD-BREAKER FOLLOWS HISTORIC COUNTRY 'THREE-PEAT' WITH A BRAND NEW SINGLE, OUT NOW </strong></span></p>
<p>— </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>PORTER WRAPS A BUSY WEEKEND WITH A TRIO OF CCMA NOMINATIONS, A SHOW-STOPPING CCMA PERFORMANCE & A HEADLINING SLOT ON SIRIUSXM’S TOP OF THE COUNTRY LIVESTREAM EVENT</strong> </p>
<p>— </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>PORTER IS THE #1 MOST PLAYED ARTIST, FOR THE SECOND WEEK, ON BILLBOARD'S TOP 50 CANADIAN CHART WITH "THESE DAYS (REMIX)" </strong></p>
<p>Heading into the final months of 2020, Canada’s <strong><a contents="MacKenzie Porter" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://mackenzieporter.com/">MacKenzie Porter</a></strong> is looking back on an activity-filled year of #1 songs and breaking historical records. On Friday, the breakout country star released her new single, “<a contents="Drinkin’ Songs" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/mackenzie-porter/570849903?uo=4&app=music"><strong>Drinkin’ Songs</strong></a>,” which follows her historic three back-to-back country #1s, and last week's crossover Top 10, with "<a contents="These Days (Remix)" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/mackenzie-porter/570849903?uo=4&app=music"><strong>These Days (Remix)</strong></a>". </p>
<p>Written by Lucas Nord and Big Loud Publishing writer, Griffen Palmer, and produced by Joey Moi and Jacob Durrett, “<a contents="Drinkin’ Songs" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/mackenzie-porter/570849903?uo=4&app=music"><strong>Drinkin’ Songs</strong></a>” channels the transporting moment of hearing the soundtrack to an old relationship post breakup. Reminiscing on everything the verses and choruses used to represent, Porter belts the upbeat anthem as a celebration of getting over him, listening to the addictive tune over and over with changed significance as its now just another one of her “<a contents="drinkin’ songs" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/mackenzie-porter/570849903?uo=4&app=music"><strong>drinkin’ songs</strong></a>.” </p>
<p>“You know when you’re dating someone, and you have ‘your song.’ The one you pick together to be the theme song of your relationship.... the one where every lyric seems to be singing about your love.... this is about THAT song.... after you breakup,” shares Porter. “It’s the one that now magically seems to come on the radio every single time you get into the car just to remind you what was once yours. The song that used to make you feel so secure and whole – but now it’s just another one of your drinkin’ songs.” </p>
<p>Last Friday night, Porter headlined the virtual stage for <strong>SiriusXM</strong>’s Top of the Country Showcase during Country Music Week 2020. Porter’s “mesmerizing vocals and hook-driven songs” (Billboard) have sparked a list of headline-worthy accolades for the Alberta-native since making her return to music in late 2018. </p>
<p>Porter is currently the #1 most played Canadian artist (all genre), for the second week, on Billboard Canada’s All-Format & Top 50 Canadian airplay charts. The re-imagined pop version of her country #1, “<strong>These Days (Remix)</strong>”, previously hit the Top 10 on the Mediabase Top 40 Airplay chart, and is Top 10 this week at Hot AC. This makes Porter the first Canadian country artist to land a crossover Top 10 since 2003, when Shania Twain’s “Up” earned the same recognition. </p>
<p>Earlier this summer, the <strong>3x 2020 CCMA Award nominee</strong> scored a historic '<strong>three-pea</strong><a contents="three-peat" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/mackenzie-porter/570849903?uo=4&app=music">t</a>', as her single "<a contents="Seeing Other People" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/mackenzie-porter/570849903?uo=4&app=music"><strong>Seeing Other People</strong></a>" became her third consecutive country #1. The track’s remarkable success made Porter the second Canadian female in history to have three consecutive country #1s, another record previously held by Shania Twain (1998). </p>
<p>Porter’s catalogue has amassed 80 Million streams, and her tracks have held spots on the largest streaming playlists around the world such as Today's Hits, A-List Pop <a contents="(Apple)" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/artist/mackenzie-porter/570849903?uo=4&app=music"><strong>(Apple)</strong></a>, Fresh Pop, Hot Singles (Amazon), Hot Hits Canada and Hot Country <a contents="(Spotify)" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6nXco5Q3cJJ0ZutnBOsSpq?si=C5wq_PKXSiGax_yP-XKxuA"><strong>(Spotify)</strong></a>.</p>

<p>David co-wrote <a contents="Couldn’t Hurt" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://itunes.apple.com/ca/artist/david-boyd-janes/1374367702"><span style="color:#3498db;"><strong>Couldn’t Hurt</strong></span></a> with country superstar <strong>James Barker</strong>, fellow <strong>CMAOntario Award nominee Aaron Alan</strong> and industry veteran Joe Ernewein.

<p>A Toronto, Ontario native, <a contents="David Boyd Janes" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.davidboydjanes.com/"><span style="color:#66ff00;"><strong>David Boyd Janes</strong></span></a> is being recognized as one of country music’s most promising new artists – and he owes everything he has accomplished so far to the decision he made two years ago of quitting his job to focus on music fulltime. The valiant move paid off quickly; 2019 was a monstrous year for the budding country star. </p>
<p>“I truly feel like I’m stuck in the greatest dream I’ve ever had and I hope I never wake up,” says David. “I have no idea what’s around the corner but I’m really excited to greet it and embrace it all.” </p>
<p>He emerged out of 100 artists to win The Next Country Music Star contest put on by the Havelock Country Jamboree, and was named Artist of the Year at the Mississauga Music Awards. Another win at the Country Wild Music Festival in Cobourg, Ontario, earned David a trip to Nashville to record a song with Grammy-winner Jamie Tate. Before David even released the song – Ready For A Good Time – Montana’s restaurant chain chose it to be featured in their advertisements airing nationwide on both tv and radio. After winning the Boots & Hearts Emerging Artist Showcase, he not only got the opportunity to perform in front of 25,000 country fans on the final night of the festival, but with the win came a single release contract through Warner Music Canada. 2020 has seen David earn his first <a contents="CMAOntario Award nomination in the Rising Star" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://cmaontario.ca/2020-awards/"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>CMAOntario Award nomination in the Rising Star</strong></span></a> category, and while plans for a robust tour had to be put on hold, next year is shaping up to be his busiest yet. </p>

<p><strong>About Shawn Mendes:</strong> </p>
<p>GRAMMY nominated Toronto born multi-platinum singer/songwriter <a contents="Shawn Mendes" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.shawnmendesofficial.com/"><strong>Shawn Mendes</strong></a> released his highly anticipated self-titled third album in May 2018. The certified platinum album debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 Chart as well as multiple additional worldwide markets. It shot to #1 on iTunes in more than 80 countries immediately upon release. The album became one of the top best-selling album debuts of 2018 and made Shawn the third youngest solo artist to ever have three consecutive #1 albums. Shawn was nominated in two categories for the 61st annual <strong>GRAMMY® Awards</strong>, including “<strong>Song of the Year</strong>” for “I<strong>n My Blood</strong>” and “<strong>Best Pop Vocal Album</strong>” for SHAWN MENDES. Most recently, Shawn was nominated for a GRAMMY for “Best Pop Duo/Group <strong>Performance</strong>” for his single with <strong>Camila Cabello</strong>, “<strong>Señorita</strong>.” The song debuted at #1 on <strong>iTunes</strong> worldwide and broke <strong>Spotify</strong>’s record for the biggest debut from a male/female duet in its history, going on to become the most streamed song on <strong>Spotify</strong> in 2019. The hit nabbed the #1 spot on Billboard’s Hot 100 Chart as well as #1 at Top 40 & Hot AC Radio. Last summer Shawn debuted his certified platinum single, “<strong>If I Can’t Have You</strong>,” at #1 on iTunes and #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. With “<strong>Señorita</strong>” at #1 and “If I Can’t Have You” at #2, Shawn is the first male solo artist ever to simultaneously hold the #1 and #2 place on the Top 40 chart. In April 2017, Shawn released his 3x platinum hit “There’s Nothing Holdin’ Me Back.” The track scored Shawn his second #1 single at Top 40 radio and on Billboard’s Pop Songs chart, joining his 7x platinum single “Stitches.” Throughout his career, Shawn has achieved 3 consecutive #1 album debuts, 3 platinum albums, and 11+ consecutive platinum and multi-platinum singles. Worldwide, he has sold over 20 million albums, 175 million singles, and has amassed over 31 billion strong streams and over 8 billion YouTube views. Shawn has completed two sold-out world tours with over one million tickets sold, selling out legendary stadiums and arenas including NYC’s Madison Square Garden and London’s O2 Arena in minutes. On his most recent tour, he sold out his first ever stadium show in minutes at Rogers Centre in his hometown of Toronto. The tour began in March 2019, with over 100 dates across the UK, Europe, North America, Latin America, Asia and Australia/New Zealand. Shawn has nearly 50 Billion global streams and 8.6 billion video views. He topped Billboard’s “21 Under 21” in 2017 and 2018 and has been featured on Forbes “30 Under 30,” Spotify’s “25 Under 25,” and Time Magazine’s “Time 100 Most Influential”. In 2018, ROI Influencer Media recognized Shawn as the #1 <strong>Most Influential Artist</strong> and #1 <strong>Most Influential Teen</strong> across all social media platforms. </p>
<p>In 2019 Shawn launched <strong>The Shawn Mendes Foundation</strong>, which seeks to inspire Shawn’s audience, the youth generation of today—to learn about those causes that they are passionate about, and help empower them to use the voice they have to bring change to the world by taking action & giving back. As part of its ongoing mission, the Foundation provides resources and support to amplify the voices, messages, and platforms of young leaders driving positive change. </p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>WATCH, LISTEN, AND STREAM THE 2020 CCMA AWARDS PRESENTED BY TD SEPTEMBER 27 9 P.M. E.T./P.T. ON GLOBAL, CORUS RADIO, AND THE GLOBAL TV APP </strong></p>
<p>TORONTO, ON (August 31, 2020) – As countless award shows have been postponed or cancelled for 2020, the Canadian Country Music Association (CCMA) has reimagined their biggest event of the year with a multi-city broadcast delivering premium performances and more talent than ever-before for the <a contents="2020 CCMA Awards" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://ccma.org/"><strong>2020 CCMA Awards</strong></a> on Global. With just under a month left until the celebration, the CCMA has produced an intimate and entertaining awards show that will pay tribute to Canada’s fastest-growing genre, country music. </p>
<p>“As we worked to create this show we didn’t want to lose sight that winning a CCMA Award is a monumental experience for an artist and that although it seems like everything has changed, the one thing that remains constant is the hard work and achievements of our artists,” explained CCMA President Tracy Martin. “Every year we hand out awards that reflect the excellence found in Canada within our genre and we couldn’t imagine not doing that this year. We’re so grateful to our broadcast partner Global TV who, without hesitation, stepped in to help us create this incredibly memorable show.” </p>
<p>Filmed in the soaring fields of Burl’s Creek Event Grounds (Ontario) — home to the 4-time CCMA Award-winning Boots and Hearts Music Festival — and against the skyline of Nashville (Tennessee), the 2020 CCMA Awards presented by TD will air on Global and stream live on the Global TV App September 27 at 9pm E.T./P.T.. The show will also broadcast on Corus radio stations Country 105 (Calgary), CISN Country 103.9 (Edmonton), and Country 104 (London/Woodstock). </p>

<p>“This year’s show is truly a passion project,” explained Martin. “The dedication of our team to make a safe space for us to create this musical love letter to our genre is not something I’ll soon forget. We hope the virtual audience loves it as much as we do.” </p>
<p>All eight of the artist based CCMA Awards — Fans’ Choice, Female Artist of the Year, Male Artist of the Year, Group or Duo of the Year, Single of the Year, Album of the Year, Rising Star and TD Entertainer of the Year — will be given out on-air on September 27.

<p><strong>Brittni + Bobbi + Kyla </strong></p>
<p><em><strong>Encouragement and inspiration. Positivity and prowess. Fun and flare. None are in short supply when it comes to high-energy country trio The Heels – and yeah, the music is darn good, too.</strong></em></p>
<p>Our band name was originally <strong>The Heals</strong> and eventually rebranded to the current spelling <strong>The Heels. The band was born with a desire to create music that would heal ourselves, and it worked! We are happier than ever making music that makes us and oth</strong>ers feel and laugh too! </p>
<p>The creative union of<strong> <a contents="Bobbi Smith" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.theheelsmusic.com/">Bobbi Smith</a></strong>, <a contents="Brittni Dominelli" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.theheelsmusic.com/"><strong>Brittni Dominelli</strong></a>, and <a contents="Kyla Rawlins" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.theheelsmusic.com/"><strong>Kyla Rawlins</strong></a> was born of a desire to heal through music, and now they’re carrying that mission forward and sharing it with an ever-growing fanbase. Theirs is a message of optimism and empowerment set to a sweet country soundtrack full of monster hooks and magnetic multi-part harmonies as showcased on their heralded debut LP, 2018’s “<strong>Love, Heels</strong>.” The Heels first came together at a North Vancouver café. Kyla is a co-owner, Brittni worked behind the counter, and Bobbi was a frequent customer. Kyla and Brittni had begun making music together in their downtime and, knowing Bobbi was also an artist, invited her to join the fold. “We all had solo careers in the past and each brought a unique style to the table,” begins Brittni. “So when we first brought it together, it really blended well and we were all inspired by what was happening.” All three were at points in their lives where they were seeking a means to feel better, to heal from things that had taken an emotional toll, and all three knew music had the power to do just that.</p>
<p>“I’ve been making music for a long time, and it takes a lot to move me,” Kyla takes over, “but every time we’d sing something together, I was overflowing with emotion and excitement. I just knew we were onto something.” <br>Inspired by the chart-topping female and female-fronted country acts that blazed trails before them, The Heels wasted little time composing a catalogue of accessible, relatable, arena-ready country anthems. And while they will collaborate with other writers from time to time, nothing they’ve recorded to date has originated outside of their ranks – and they’re rightfully proud of that fact. </p>
<p>Shortly after releasing their debut single “<a contents="Come Around" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://music.apple.com/ca/album/come-around-single/1275446189"><strong>Come Around</strong></a>” to radio in the summer of 2017, they were kicking up a frenzy of deserved attention. Then, when <strong>Love, Heels</strong> saw daylight in May 2018, they toured the country as radio and media darlings, took to major festival stages like the Calgary Stampede and Sunfest Country Music Festival in Cowichan Valley, BC, and racked up over one million streams across the major music platforms. And with eight singles to country radio, they have amassed a lengthily list of <strong>nominations</strong> for the <strong>BC Country Music Awards</strong>. As the ladies tell it, they’re just getting started. “We want people to feel like, no matter what their dream might be, they should go for it,” Bobbi says about what’s driving The Heels forward. It’s a message that hits close to home, as all three members were performing in public at a young age, hit some bumps on their respective roads, and eventually stepped back from the spotlight feeling discouraged. “It felt like we had to grow up, get real jobs, be adults...” Bobbi says candidly. “But The Heels is a rejection of that; this is us grabbing life by the horns and going after our goals, and hopefully inspiring other people to do the same.” </p>
<p>That’s perhaps most apparent in concert, where <a contents="The Heels" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.theheelsmusic.com/"><strong>The Heels</strong></a> deliver a whirlwind of an unforgettable live music experience. The shows are colourful, both figuratively and literally, with each member embodying a unique powerful yet humble presence that, together, comprises their onstage brand. “That’s all about being true to yourself – embracing your true colours and wearing them proudly,” offers Kyla. </p>
<p>Their hard-hitting, high-impact performances have earned them hordes of fans from coast to coast and across borders, often backed by a band with roots in the hard rock scene, even converted some from outside of the country music community. “We’ve played everything from main stages at major festivals to your community festival stage, where there’s really no stage at all,” says Brittni, “and regardless of the size of the stage or the crowd, we’re giving our everything to inspire people with a positive, optimistic outlook.” </p>
<p>After all, the three members of The Heels have grown significantly as artists and as people in their short time together, and knowing first-hand how great music and an empowering message can generate positivity and prosperity, they’re compelled to share both with every single person they encounter on their ongoing journey.</p>

<p><strong>Holy Coast</strong> is a perfect example of our healing through music and also praises our beautiful west coast waters. We all had the privilege of growing up on the water and the ocean remains a huge source of healing for us whenever we need a relax and a reset. The lines “down to the water, the sun and the holy coast” are inspired by the father the son and the <strong>Holy Ghost</strong>.</p>

<p>Our current single. An anthem celebrating the support of great friendship through the ups and downs of life. The song came out April 2020 at the height of the pandemic and the start of the isolation lockdown for all of us and it became even more meaningful to us as we all FaceTimed our pals for some positivity through the uncertainty. We have a couple of videos on our YouTube channel featuring this song the first is a compilation of our friends in lockdown dancing and celebrating the release of our song as all avenues of a single release, video shoot, and promo were canceled, and the other is a live video of us playing our last live show before the pandemic. </p>
