Ready? Let's go!
Artist: The Glorious Sons
Hometown: Kingston, ON
Genre: Rock
Related Artists: The Beaches, Arkells, Cage The Elephant
Song: Don't Live Fast
Notes: The Glorious Sons slow it all the way down and send a message in Don't Live Fast. Along with the song's release, Brett Emmons says, "We wrote and recorded this song a few months back, because back then it looked like we might not have the time this year, look at us now. This song is called Don't Live Fast, and I think it means a lot more now." Hit play, sit still, and listen.
Artist: Kip Moore
Hometown: Tifton, GA
Genre: Country
Related Artists: Dustin Lynch, Drake White, Canaan Smith
Song: Wild World
Notes: Fan-favourite Kip Moore is back with the lead track from his upcoming album, Wild World (May 29, 2020), and the country music lovers that are into his sound, style, and storytelling are going to be all in on this one. Wild World is going to fit well in the live show when Moore takes a couple minutes to slow things down and if this is a taste of the new record, I can't wait to hear more.
Artist: Whitney Rose
Hometown: Charlottetown, PEI
Genre: Country
Related Artists: Margo Price, Brandy Clark, Lindi Ortega
Song: In A Rut
Notes: In A Rut is the third release from Whitney Rose's upcoming album We Still Go To Rodeos (April 24, 2020), and it's a beauty. The Texas-based singer-songwriter maintains her signature sound in a track that is begging to be played live and loud with a ringing guitar and fans dancing in front of the stage. Turn this one up.
Artist: FXRRVST
Hometown: Toronto, ON
Genre: Rock
Related Artists: Mia LJ, Courtyards, Grey Glass
Song: The Rough Patch
Notes: Toronto-based duo FXRRVST is here with a new release and video with The Rough Patch. The track is a fun listen with a fantastic pairing of music, lyrics, and vocals. I love the simplicity and impact of the line, "If we try hard enough, we'll get through this rough patch". And it's impossible not to love the underdog story we get in the video too!
Artist: The Darcys
Hometown: Toronto, ON
Genre: Pop / Adult Alternative
Related Artists: Hollerado, Said The Whale, RALPH
Song: Boys Don't
Song: Change
Notes: The Darcys dropped a two-song single on Friday morning with Boys Don't and Change available for music lovers to snack on. The boys are in fine form on both songs, bringing creativity, their unique approach, and dance-ability to go along with lyrics that you want to listen to. Get ready to move once you hit play and listen to these two back-to-back.
