There is more to Canadian bands and artists than Justin Bieber and Nickleback.
Here are some great Canadian bands to support:
1. Japandroids: The House that Heaven Built took over the alternative radio station but they have other equally talented songs on their 3 albums: Post-Nothing, No singles and Celebration Rock.
2. City and Colour: Another great band with great songs like The Grand Optimist, Save Your Scissors and Sleeping Sickness it’s hard to ignore their talents. Their most recent album Little Hell is definitely one of their strongest.
3. 100 Mile House: A great folk band from Edmonton. They just recently released their second album Wait With Me. Their extremely catchy song Better Still, is one of the top played on my phone. Because they aren’t very well known, they mostly tour around Alberta and often come to Calgary. Plus, you can often talk to them after the concerts.
4. Marianas Trench: Probably the most well known on the list. They put on a great show and have awesome music videos. Their newest album Ever After, has many radio hits like Fallout and Desperate Measures,but all their other songs and earlier albums shouldn’t be ignored.
