\n\t<\/figure>\n\n\t\t\tOWEN RIEGLING SIGNE AVEC LE LABEL AM\u00c9RICAIN BIG LOUD\t<\/h3>\n\t
The rising (Ontario) Canadian country star revealed that the influential country label Big Loud Records – which recently expanded its\u00a0marketing leadership team\u00a0– has signed on as his U.S. label partner, joining forces with his home label Universal Music Canada.<\/p>\n
Depuis sa victoire en 2022\u00a0Concours des artistes \u00e9mergents du festival Boots & Hearts<\/a>, Riegling has established himself as one of Canada’s emerging voices in country music, and the goal is to expand his reach south of the border.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\tLire la suite\n\t\t\t\t Last year, the Mildmay, Ontario native earned two Canadian Country Music Association (CCMA) Awards, one of which was for his track “Old Dirt Roads,” which peaked at No. 69 on the\u00a0Billboard Canadian Hot 100<\/a>\u00a0et num\u00e9ro 2 sur le\u00a0Billboard Canada Country Diffusion<\/a>\u00a0chart. He’s currently charting on Country, with “Coming Home To You (Bigger House),” his duet with Mackenzie Porter. Not to mention opening stints for country stars Brett Young, Jake Owen, Tyler Hubbard of Florida Georgia Line and Chase Rice.<\/p>\n Source : Billboard Canada (MODIFI\u00c9)<\/p>\n “‘I Know You’re Gonna Leave’ is about that gut feeling you get when you know someone’s slipping away. It’s painful, but there’s also a strength in admitting the truth to yourself instead of holding on to something broken. We wrote this song to capture both the heartbreak and the release that comes with letting go of something that was never meant to be.”<\/p>\n Source : Soumission des membres (MODIFI\u00c9E)<\/p>\n Unapologetically fun and brimming with singalong energy, “Can’t Put A Price On A Good Time” is a Country-Rock anthem celebrating the timeless truth that memories outweigh money. Breakout Country artist Andy Colonico (Revive The Rose) teams up with rising four-piece powerhouse Small-Town Strip Club to deliver a gripping, feel-good and catchy hit built on soaring guitar riffs, powerful harmonies, and a classic country melody.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\tLire la suite\n\t\t\t\t Written while reminiscing on a long drive, the song reflects Colonico and Small-Town Strip Club’s mutual small-town roots and the priceless nights spent with friends. Colonico and Small-Town Strip Club frontman Johann Yundt penned this tune based on a Country hook, filling in the gaps on why good company, even on a limited budget, is more fulfilling than the flashy living commonly amplified on social media.\u00a0The second verse tips its hat to Canadian icons like The Tragically Hip and April Wine, with a call-and-response that feels like belting out lyrics shoulder-to-shoulder in a crowded bar. With its stadium-ready sound, “Can’t Put A Price On A Good Time”\u00a0is an instantly relatable track that emphasizes that while money comes and goes, the best moments in life are truly priceless and unforgettable.<\/p>\n Source : Soumission des membres (MODIFI\u00c9E)<\/p>\n Retrouvez Julian Taylor en tourn\u00e9e en Ontario cet automne !

Rising artist Janna Leduc, from Milverton and now based in Stratford, Ontario, is gearing up to release her debut album ‘Long Time Comin’ this fall, with the single “That’s How” out now.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\tLire la suite\n\t\t\t\t Janna’s music is unapologetically country. It blends the storytelling heart of the genre with a rock edge that keeps her sound bold and fresh. Her shows aren’t just concerts-they’re rowdy, line-dancing, crowd-singing parties where authenticity and energy are front and centre.<\/p>\n Her new single “That’s How” was recorded in Nashville with an all-star team of musicians, including Andy Leftwich on fiddle and Doug Frasure on drums. It’s a no-nonsense anthem about living life on your own terms, wrapped in a high-energy sound that’s destined to get fans singing along.<\/p>\n Source : Soumission des membres (MODIFI\u00c9E)<\/p>\n Le 4 septembre, la chanteuse, compositrice et multi-instrumentiste dynamique, Jessica Sevier, qui m\u00e9lange les genres, a \u00e9t\u00e9 nomm\u00e9e iHeartRadio Future Star pour septembre et octobre, marquant une \u00e9tape importante avec son nouveau single\u00a0“Good To Drive”<\/a>\u00a0(The Orchard). Le titre sera diffus\u00e9 sur six stations de radio Pure Country au Canada.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\tLire la suite\n\t\t\t\t Co-\u00e9crit par Sevier, auteur-compositeur multi-platine Robin Ottolini<\/a> et producteur laur\u00e9at d'un prix JUNO Derek Hoffman<\/a> (Tyler Shaw, The East Pointers), who also produced the track, “Good To Drive” delivers a powerful mix of raw storytelling and bold, gritty vocals. The track’s anthemic, hook-driven sound is a heartfelt ode to the kind of all-consuming, unshakeable longing that keeps you on standby-always ready for the next call.<\/p>\n When I first wrote ‘Good to Drive’, I knew it was a special song, and seeing the way people have connected with it since its release has been incredible. The opportunities this song has opened up are things I’ve only ever dreamed of, ”\u00a0says\u00a0Sevier. Thank you to everyone who has supported me along the way, and a massive thank you to the entire Pure Country and iHeartRadio team for believing in this song and my story.”<\/p>\n Source : Soumission des membres (MODIFI\u00c9E)<\/p>\n The album, out now via Universal Music Canada, is packed with 12 fresh tracks that capture the band’s signature energy, irresistible hooks, and heartfelt, relatable storytelling.<\/p>\n They kicked off the year with the lead single “You Didn’t Hear It From Me,” which shot to No. 1 at Canadian country radio, setting the tone for what was to come. “You Didn’t Hear It From Me” was followed by a string of fan favourites including “Caught Me At A Good Time,” “I Don’t See Why Not,” “Somebody I Know,” and the anthem at the heart of this album, “One Of Us.”<\/p>\n Source : Soumission des membres (MODIFI\u00c9E)<\/p>\n Artiste country originaire d'Ottawa,\u00a0Brea Lawrenson,\u00a0<\/strong>dirige l'offensive des artistes ind\u00e9pendants depuis plusieurs ann\u00e9es, avec de nombreuses sorties qui ont atteint les charts \u00e0 la radio.
