Avalon Stone, one of Canada’s promising alt-rock talents, has just released her latest single, "Shaking Me Up," and the track, produced by JUNO Award-winning Kevin Dietz, delves into the depths of a toxic relationship, capturing the complex emotions of being both stuck and defiant.

Avalon Stone is a dynamic force in the alt-rock music scene, known for her moody, mysterious, and magnetically passionate sound. With her roots from a young age performing classic rock and blues, and now at 20, her evolution to modern alt rock with grunge and metal influences, Avalon has quickly become a voice for those navigating the complex journey of self-discovery in today’s world. She is also a staunch advocate for mental health.

"Shaking Me Up" features a masterful blend of grungy guitars and impassioned vocals, showcasing Avalon's raw, authentic sound. Following the global streaming success of her debut single "Forget You," Avalon continues to push the boundaries of alt-rock with compelling melodies and powerful lyrics. The track is brought to life by Donovan McKinley on bass, Caleb Bourgeois on lead guitar, a guest appearance by Chris Dimas from Bleeker, and Wes Bartram on drums.

The song narrates a journey from emotional turmoil to a fierce, almost rebellious awakening. It reflects the painful reality of two people amplifying each other’s worst traits—his uncontrollable anger and her profound sadness. Yet, Avalon's delivery is not one of sorrow but a powerful rejection, a bold 'fuck you' to the heartache of being in a toxic love.

"It’s about the moments that test us and the strength we find in facing trauma and betrayal," Avalon explains. "Working with such a talented team helped me channel my experiences into a sound that’s both fierce and reflective. I hope it resonates with those facing similar challenges, providing a voice and a sense of solidarity."

"Shaking Me Up" promises to connect deeply with fans of powerful alt-rock anthems and those who appreciate a candid exploration of toxic relationships. The release will be accompanied by a symbolic lyric video, illustrating Avalon’s emotional breakdown through a stylized drawing that progressively cracks like porcelain. Following this, a highly anticipated official music video produced by Jeff Nedza will showcase Avalon and the band’s passionate performance skills, including drummer Tyler Shea.
