Unwed Mothers (Edmonton, AB)- Blues, Indie, Rock)

Unwed Mothers (Edmonton, AB)- Blues, Indie, Rock The next stop was the Cadillac Lounge to take in a Canadian band, Unwed Mothers, whose name was neat and resonated with me as an unwed mother myself. The lead singer, Julie Adams,a petite woman with long hair told the crowd that she was here in the big city for the very first time. If she was finding the hustle and bustle of Toronto overwhelming…

Non-Canadians of tumblr!

Attention non-Canadians!

Inspired by this poll on the subject, which (if any) of these other Canadian bands/musicians have you heard of?

(if you recognize more than one, vote for the one you think is the most niche and then tell me in the tags)

I tried to get a decent genre spread, but I almost certainly missed something important. Canadian mutuals if you have any other suggestions hmu, drop your music recs in the tags!

If you get this, answer with your top 5 music artists and send it to the last 7 people in your notifications! 😊💕

i completely forgot about this omg i have the working memory of a goldfish i'm so sorry

okay so i have different answers for like "all time" favourites versus "current" favourites, all time is more like emotional attachment and nostalgia though versus current being actually listening to them a lot, so i'll do current (in no particular order):

- isaac dunbar

- jhariah

- tally hall

- conan gray

- lovejoy

also bonus entry of specifically i can't touch you anymore by the magnetic fields

there's really no rhyme or reason to what i listen to at a given point though. like i've been looping grapes by james marriott and microwave popcorn by bo burnham for like a week and a half. it was no cock like horse cock before that. audial stims go brrr

Jordan Klassen

The El Mocambo was ON FIRE when Jordan Klassen hit the Stage!! Literally. They had to evacuate right after the first song. The evacuation went smoothly, and our cities firefighters showed a great response time. It was only a little kitchen fire though, so they checked to make sure it was out and then hopped back into one of the 8 fire engines out front and drove away. The whole thing took less…

CHARLOTTE CARDIN RELEASES NEW SINGLE “LONELY WITH OUR LOVE” AND ANNOUNCES A WEEK IN NASHVILLE EP DROPPING ON MAY 17

Award-winning Canadian singer-songwriter Charlotte Cardin announces her newest EP, A Week in Nashville, to be released this Friday, May 17th  via Cult Nation. Her new song “Lonely with Our Love” is out now.

A piano-focused track, “Lonely with Our Love” is a somber ballad about a crumbling relationship. Cardin’s powerful vocals are at the forefront of the track as she asks her partner, “Are we even happy anymore?” The single’s reflective nature captures the tone for the rest of the EP, showing her stepping into the personal lyricism that has captivated millions of fans worldwide.

“Loneliness is such a universal feeling, but there's a distinct kind that comes with being with someone. And that's the heart of "Lonely with Our Love,’” shares Charlotte.  “I wrote this song with the extremely talented Gabe Simon, and it was one of those rare, magical sessions where the song just unfolded on its own. We wanted to capture that complex, paradoxical feeling of being alone together.”

The single and upcoming EP follow on the heels of Cardin’s 4-track EP released in November 2023, Une Semaine à Paris. Just a few months prior, she released her sophomore album, 99 Nights, which gained praise from outlets including Billboard, NYLON, Complex, and more and won the 2024 JUNO awards for ‘Pop Album of the Year” and “Album of the Year.”  Looking ahead, next month Cardin will embark on what is set to be an expansive international run of shows, including multiple dates in France and Québec, as well as stops in Luxembourg, Belgium, and Switzerland. Fans can purchase tickets HERE, and a full list of dates can be found below.
