A quick re-up here. The Barr Brothers debut came across my desk halfway through last year, and it was a jaw dropping collection set of songs. "Beggar in the Morning" was probably my favorite song of 2010, and the album has aged like vintage wine or single malts. Secret City made the smart move to distribute this beautiful record. Rather than review it again, I just wanted to bring attention to the re-release. Grab this now, folks. You won't be sorry. At the end of the day, it's too easy to [...]
There was a special Polaris Salon listening session presented by CHARTattack's Aaron Brophy about this album back in April. Can't say it blew me away as I listened to it down there back then. Repeat listens once it made the Long List didn't sway me from that initial opinion either but maybe some of y'all might feel differently than I did?

Photo by National Capital Commission It's pre-Canada Day today but here goes. Happy Canada Day 2011! Hope everyone will be enjoying their weekend and celebrate Canada's 144th birthday. I decided to make a mixtape which all the acts are Canadian. I know some of the songs don't have Canada as a theme but just wanted people to have fun to the songs on Canada Day. Enjoy!

Frank Yang One crucial way that NXNE has become more like its bigger, cooler acronym-a-like cousin SXSW is the increase of day shows to go along with the official evening showcases. Of course, I didn't actually go to any of these new daytime events - the only afternoon party I hit up was one that had been happening for the last few years, the Kelp Records BBQ at the Global Village hostel, this year co-presented by the Brits at The Line Of Best Fit . After all - they [...]
Anton Corbijn It only took about six minutes via Twitter to announce the forty albums long-listed for the sixth edition of the Polaris Music Prize , we'll have the next three weeks to argue over their relative merits and come July 6, when the ten record-strong short list is announced, another couple months to hash those out before the September 19 gala in Toronto when a yet-to-be-determined grand jury declares their pick for the best Canadian album of the past year. And there's more at stake this year than in the past, [...]
Every year the biggest and best indie bands, fans and media alike flock to Toronto, Canada for the acclaimed summer music festival known as North by North East (NXNE) now in its 17 th year running. Modeled after American festivals such as South by Southwest, Bonnaroo and Lollapalooza , NXNE is dedicated to new and upcoming music bringing the finest emerging musicians to the GTA, what some may call the Canadian Mecca for fresh, innovative and inspiring new music. NXNE has grown significantly [...]
Daniel Boud To say that it has been an improbable year and a half since Fucked Up's second album The Chemistry Of Common Life won the 2009 Polaris Music Prize would be a bit of an understatement. Beyond the long odds of a hardcore record by a band whose name is deemed unprintable by many media outlets earning the title of "best Canadian album" of the 2008-09 season, you have the band's frontman - a big, bearded fellow with a penchant for stripping down to his shorts [...]
May 31, 2011 marks the end of another Polaris Music Prize voting year.

The album Collider from the Sam Roberts Band ( previously featured here) was released this past Tuesday and it is great! Some of the bros and I are headed up to cottage country for the weekend so I thought it would be appropriate to share some dock rock jams with the rest of the blogosphere world. Collider is a masterfully crafted album from the consistently awesome group members of the Sam Roberts Band, providing us with a clean, rhythmically balanced sound that is best appreciated when listening to the album [...]
