It’s that in between season of grey where you wish the fall colours would stick around, but here in Toronto, the threat of cold is real… but luckily we have some great music to keep us going as we promote music across Canada.
Lisa LeBlanc’s new album “Why You Wanna Leave, Runaway Queen?” is rowdy and heart-on-her-sleeve and debuted at #8 on the Billboard album charts in Canada in its first week! This 26 year old punk rock banjo player has written an album of relationships, travel, and acknowledgement of her Acadian heritage.

Nick Cave had a devastating tradgedy in recent years, losing his son in an accident. He took time off but there is a new album, a film and, perhaps, some more announcements coming in the future. Here’s one of our favourite tunes from his 2013 release Push The Sky Away:
Laura Sauvage’s debut record piled her love of 90’s bands like Weezer and Pavement and Nirvana all in one place and gained her some unexpected fans.

Just some of the projects we are working on right now!
