Song of the Day: December 15, 2016 - "People" by Little Scream

Little Scream has released a b-side from her recent (totally awesome) album Cult Following. "People" is a political anthem that, despite being written a few years ago, is perfectly timed and appropriate for all the turmoil that is going on.

Of the song she says: 
“When simplistic rhetoric and misleading sloganeering helped award a sociopathic demagogue the highest office in my home country, I heard a collective sigh of exasperation, and it resembled something like 'Come on, People!!!' What more could we say?”

Song of the Day: December 14, 2016 - "What Light (Never Goes Dim)" by Aidan Knight

Just like the Hannah Georgas video recently released, one of my favourite people, Aidan Knight, appears in a video with several versions of themselves. Aidan's for everyone!

The new video for "What Light (Never Goes Dim)" was shot on an active submarine, directly by Ft. Langley (who also did the awesome video for Aidan's song "All Clear"). Check it out:

Song of the Day: December 13, 2016 - "Freedom" by Rose Cousins

Rose Cousins has released a new single, "Freedom", and announced a new album Natural Conclusion, due out February 3rd 2017!

"Freedom" is a beautiful song that instantly reminded me of early 90's Tragically Hip ("Grace, Too"), and represents the idea of choice, and giving up something in order to get something.

The record has an all star lineup from producer Joe Henry, to the band (Gord Tough, and Kinley Downing to name a few), and a choir that includes the likes of Jill Barber, and Miranda Mullholland. Have a listen to "Freedom" below.

Song of the Day: December 12, 2016 - "The Virus" by A Tribe Called Red

I have been pretty obsessed with A Tribe Called Red's recent album We Are The Halluci Nation, so every time they release a new single or video I get excited. More reasons to share and spread the awesomeness of this record.

The latest is "The Virus", which features Saul Williams, and Chippewa Travellers, and has a brand new video - check it out below.

Song of the Day: December 11, 2016 - "Homeless" by Julie & The Wrong Guys

I feel like I shouldn't even need to tell you anything more about Julie & The Wrong Guys other than the members; Juno-winning Julie Doiron, Cancer Bats members Mike Peters and Jaye Schwarzer, and Eamon McGrath. 

Their new songs gives me some "House of the Rising Sun" vibes, and considering it's called "Homeless" is probably no coincidence. It's off their new 7" and you're going to want to crank this one loud. 

Song of the Day: December 10, 2016 - "Keys" by The Age Of Electric

The pair of brothers have returned. Ryan & Kurt Dahle and Todd & John Kerns, better known as The Age of Electric have recently been on a reunion tour, and now announced a brand new EP which will be out February 17 next year on We Are Busy Bodies. 

"Keys" is the first single, one of 4 previously unreleased songs that were recorded during the Make a Pest a Pet session. Check it out below!

Song of the Day: December 09, 2016 - "Paradise" by Chersea & Project Limelight

Just last week, they released a video for a new song called "Paradise" which was written by Chersea and the girls of Project Limelight, giving them the chance to write, record, and perform their own song. Check it out below!
