Raquel discusses debut full-length album 'Fixations'

“Everyone's been broken from something. You smoke some weed, you fall in love, they turn out to be a fuckboy, you're with someone shitty, you break up, you ghost them, you still love them, you resign, you meet someone new and there’s hope again.”

2. Chrome Daphne (Chris da Silva and Jay Cherr)

New single “There”

Jay Cherr from Chrome Daphne discusses new single “There”

“Out of all the things in the world, all the things we can experience and feel as humans – why do we feel this need to rush? What is there to rush, honestly? Aren’t we just “there” to feel as close and as amazing as we can?

“Let’s just put aside all of these worries and insecurities for these few moments that we’re in bed together. If it feels this good, let’s make it last for as long as we can.”

3. Mear (Frances Miller and Greg Harrison)

Music video "Second Sight" ****STROBE WARNING****

Forthcoming album Soft Chains (April 22nd).

Mear (Frances Miller and Greg Harrison) discuss new single "Second Sight"

"This song is about someone who is grappling with a memory that holds them back. It's about a confrontation and making it out on the other side."

4. Beth Keeping

New video “I’m not looking for a friend”

Beth Keeping discusses “I’m not looking for a friend”

“It’s about being clear on what you want and intentional about going after it. It recognises that friendships can gradually develop into something more, and this process can be complicated and confusing, but you can’t sit in that space forever - eventually you have to make a decision either way.”

5. Men Without Hats (Ivan & Colin Doroschuk with Sho Murray)

Lyric video "If the World Should End Today,"

Again, Pt. 2

6. Jenny Berkel

New Single "Kaleidoscope"

New album 'These Are the Sounds Left from Leaving' out on May 13th

7. Paul DeRosa

New Single "Champion"

Paul DeRosa discusses new single "Champion"

“During the past two years, I was fortunate to meet with several of Canada’s top Paralympians and these engagements had a profound positive impact on me. It gave me the strength and courage to move forward despite having our world turned upside down due to the pandemic.”

“Witnessing their resilience and determination while they competed at the Tokyo Games last summer, reignited my passion for writing music, I realized that being a champion is far greater than winning a medal. It’s about our inner strength, and the ability to push harder when barriers appear. It is the essence of the Paralympic spirit.”

“Collaborating with the talented Eva Avila, musicians and technicians, and the Canadian Paralympic Team to compose and perform ‘Champion’ has been a remarkable experience I will always be grateful for.”

8. Don Brownrigg

New single "The Same Time"

9. Holy Coves

New single 'The Hurt Within'

10. James Mcleod

New track "Parkdale"

James Mcleod discusses new track "Parkdale"

“All of the seemingly friendly strangers I’d met in my 20s, on closer reflection, more resembled monsters in my 30s. ‘Parkdale’ is about leaning into your vices even when they no longer serve you merely because it’s convenient to.”
