Vancouver bluesman Al “Wailin’” Walker has spent nearly five decades proving that the blues is not a genre you retire from. His eighth self-produced album, 'Bluesman', has landed at #1 on the Roots Music Report Canada chart, the latest chart-topper in a catalogue that stretches back to 1978, and a career built almost entirely on his own terms.

The new album from acclaimed singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Maiah Wynne is out. Alongside the album release, Maiah has shared a new video and new single titled ‘Girl Dinner’.

Shoegaze has always been built on a handful of towering reference points. My Bloody Valentine set the genre's blueprint with 1991's 'Loveless,' Slowdive carried the sound into flowing, emotional territory on 'Souvlaki,' Ride pushed it faster and more melodic on 'Nowhere,' and the Jesus and Mary Chain laid the noise-pop groundwork the whole movement grew out of. AloneKitty, the Toronto based project of Michelle K, works from that same lineage, layering distortion-heavy walls of guitar over songs that never lose their melodic centre, closer in spirit to the genre's founders than to any of its softer modern imitators.

Crank the amps, roll down the windows and point the car straight toward the horizon. Junkhouse, the Hamilton, Ontario roots rockers whose ferocious blend of blues, folk and rock 'n' roll helped shape a golden era of Canadian music, are back with "Hot Hot Sun," the first new single of their exciting 2026 chapter, released on High Or Hurtin. Gritty, groove-soaked and radiating summer heat, the track finds singer, songwriter and guitarist Tom Wilson in thrilling form, leading one of the country's most celebrated rock acts into a bold new era of fresh songs and fierce energy. The band will bring that energy to one of their biggest stages yet when they headline the OLG Stage at Fallsview Casino in Niagara Falls on Saturday, November 21 at 8 p.m.

More than 40 years after they gave the world permission to dance, Men Without Hats are bringing the party back to stages across North America. The Montreal New Wave trailblazers are hitting the road on the "You Can Dance If You Want Tour," celebrating more than four decades of synth-soaked smash hits with a live show that turns every room into a party, in support of their new album 'On the Moon,' out now.

The "You Can Dance If You Want Tour" kicks off Nov. 27 in Mount Dora, FL and sweeps through the U.S. East Coast and Midwest in December. It rings in New Year's Eve in Palm Springs, crosses Canada through January and February 2027, and then carries the celebration all the way to Australia in May.

Candles glowing across a front lawn, neighbours dancing beneath the open sky and a cherished voice that follows you everywhere you go. Denver indie pop duo Cherokee Social open their hearts on "Maya," a shimmering, soul-stirring new single out now that honours the full circle of a life lived with joy, courage and a house overflowing with friends. Written by frontman Julian Navarro in tribute to his late mother, the song wraps dreamy, reverb-kissed guitar around soaring walls of harmony that feel like they could lift the roof clean off the room.
