Victoria artist Sam Weber has released a new video for his song "Charlotte" off of the record released this spring called Valentina Nevada.
The video features fellow Victoria-based band Fox Glove, who were on tour recently with Sam & his band.
The touring continues for them now and into November with a show in Vancouver tapped for November 10th - but a venue is still TBA. You can check out the full schedule on his website - HERE.

I have to admit I hadn't heard the original song by Phantogram, but since I love everything that Pup does, I knew this had to be good, and I was right.
Check out the band covering "You Don't Get Me High Anymore" below, and be sure to get your tickets to come see them when they're in Vancouver live on November 23rd, with Meat Wave, at the Cobalt.
Has it really been three years since the last full length album from smoky singer-songwriter Louise Burns??
That will change in a few months with the just-announced Young Mopes, following up '013's The Midnight Mass. The album was produced by Burns herself, and the first single is an upbeat song with darker undertones, "Storms".
Check it out below, and be sure to mark February 3 on your calendar, when the album comes out via Light Organ Records.
I hope you're ready for a good cry, because this one's going to pull on all the heartstrings. Not only for the subject matter of Secret Path, the story of Chanie Wenjack, an Ojibway boy that died after fleeing from a residential school in 1966, but that it comes from Gord Downie.
I've expressed before my huge love of the man, and the Tragically Hip, but between the new music (and coming on-air special on October 23rd on the CBC) and his recent interview with Peter Mansbridge (embedded below), my heart is breaking.
So curl up on the couch for this one, and grab some tissues, because it's beautiful and crushing.
It's been a while since we've heard new music from Adrian Glynn. Since his last album, you may have seen him on TV (Arrow, Supernatural) and movies (a little film called The Revenant).
"Old Cadogan Hotel" is the first single off his upcoming album morelightthannolight coming out this Friday on Light Organ. You can also catch him live at The Emerald on the 27th of this month for his album release show.
Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!
I'm thankful for this new Arkells video from their most recent album Morning Report.
What Canadian band are YOU most thankful for?
The members of My Morning Jacket have been pretty busy of late. Not only did they release a new album last year (with the tease of another one coming shortly after), but guitarist Carl Broemel recently put out a solo album, and now there's a new solo album on the horizon for frontman Jim James.
The fierce protest song "Same Old Lie" is the first tease of the album, titled Eternally Even, out November 4th.
After a couple weeks of teasing, we're finally getting our first aural glimpse of the new album from The Matinée!
"Dancing On Your Grave" is a rootsy rager produced by Jamie Candiloro (who worked with Matinée-favourite Ryan Adams) and rumour has it the album is near complete and will be out later this year!
