Tamtax brings plenty of personality to “Charot”, a bright and entertaining pop song that looks at the confusing side of modern dating with a sense of humor. Inspired by the popular Filipino expression that usually means “just kidding”, while often hiding a…

KEVIN DAVID KAYDEE just gave us a song that sounds like the first warm day after a brutal winter. “You Make Summer Time Beautiful” is his new pop single, and it’s built around something most of us already know but rarely put…

Toronto’s Tyler Ellis has a way of writing about regular people that never feels forced, and his new single “Union Song” is a good example of that. It’s the lead single off his upcoming ninth album, “Hardwarestore”, and it’s the kind of…

KNIGHTRESS is back with “Unbecoming”, the first single off their upcoming debut full-length “The Sentient Condition”, set to arrive this fall from Studio Sainte-Marthe with producer Francis Caste behind the board. For anyone who hasn’t crossed paths with this Paris band yet,…

Betty Moon is back, and she didn’t waste any time reminding people why she’s stayed a cult favorite since her days on Toronto’s 90s rock and alt scene. Her new single “Want Me To” is the first taste of her upcoming six-track…

Tyler Ellis lets you in the door with “Hardwarestore”, his ninth album, and it plays out like catching up with an old friend over coffee. The Toronto songwriter has always worn two hats: he’s a working musician and a longtime music teacher,…
