Song(s) of the Day: February 05, 2017 - "This Old Dog" & "My Old Man" by Mac DeMarco

Mac Demarco has a new album coming out on May 5th, and instead of just releasing one single this week, he gave us two!

"This Old Dog" (also the name of the new album) and "My Old Man" are the first two songs on the album. Both are very mellow, acoustic mixed with synth, and definitely melancholy.

Give the tracks a listen, and if you're at Coachella, in Toronto or Montreal, or the states and Europe, you'll be seeing Mac this spring and summer - here are the current tour dates.

Song of the Day: February 04, 2017 - "Get Ready" by The Harpoonist & The Axe Murderer

"Get Ready" for a new album from Shawn 'The Harpoonist' Hall and Matthew 'The Axe Murderer' Rogers. Apocalipstick is out March 24 and features a whole host of great musicians, like Dawn Pemberton, Andrina Turenne, Alexa Dirks, Ben Rogers, Khari Wendell, Erik Nielsen, and Ricardo Khayatte. 

So while you wait for their show at the Commodore (on April 22) and the new album, crank the new single below!

Song of the Day: February 03, 2017 - "Big Love" by Gay Nineties

T-minus one week until the new Gay Nineties album Decadent Days is released, and we have another single from it. 

"Big Love" came out as a single last week, and a music video followed a few days after, showing some behind the scenes videos from the band and live performances from the past year.

According to the press release I have there's going to be a show in Vancouver on Valentine's Day, so we'll keep you posted.

Song of the Day: February 02, 2017 - "High Ticket Attractions" by The New Pornographers

The New Pornographers are back! "High Ticket Attractions" is the first single off their upcoming Whiteout Conditions, and it's exactly what you'd want from the group. 

The album is due out April 7 on Dine Alone Records, and you can check it the single below, or click here for a fancy interactive lyrics video! 

Song of the Day: February 01, 2017 - "No Show" by Real Ponchos

Here's a nice little country song to ease you into your Wednesday morning...

Vancouver's Real Ponchos are set to release their new album To The Dusty World on February 10th with a show at the Wise Hall on the same day.

The first single is titled "No Show" and you can hear it below!

Song of the Day: January 31, 2017 - "Pure Comedy" by Father John Misty

I honestly don't know where to start today. I listened to Father John Misty's new song "Pure Comedy" the day it was released, and absolutely loved it. 
Then was sent the 25 minute short film by the same name and just spent the entire time staring into the computer.

There are so many snippets and bits and pieces in there from the upcoming album that just heighten my expectations on what it could be. We'll find out on April 7th when Pure Comedy is released. (Hopefully we get a few more songs before then!)

Song of the Day: January 30, 2017 - "Blood Alley" by The Matinee

The Matinee have released another new single off of their upcoming album Dancing On Your Grave, which comes out on February 17!

"Blood Alley" is super catchy and I found myself singing along, as I've seen the boys perform it live over the last year or so.

Have a listen below and keep an eye out for the new album in February!

Song of the Day: January 29, 2017 - "Chains" by Rose Cousins

First we received "Freedom" from Rose Cousins, and now we have a new single (and video) called "Chains". If the two singles are any indication of the new album (Natural Conclusion on Feb 3rd), holy moley am I ever excited.

"Chains" is verging on country, which is definitely visualized in the video below, and seems like a new direction, at least for this album. Happy Sunday everyone, have a listen below.
