SOJA, the internationally acclaimed, two-time Grammy-nominated eight-piece from Washington D.C., have released their new single “The Day You Came” featuring UB40 and Rebelution. The intensely personal track is a bittersweet breakup song that perfectly captures the confusion of heartache.

Robben Ford is pleased to announce the release of his new single "A Dragon's Tail." About the single, Robben says that “A strong guitar and bassline and a singing melody set up a long, blazing guitar solo. This thing rocks!” The single is off the wildly anticipated album, Pure, to drop August 27, 2021, via earMUSIC (distributed by BFD / The Orchard in North America.) Pure will be the first wholly instrumental studio album since 1997's Tiger Walk, and it's available for pre-order now.

Following up their previously-released single, "My Darlin,'" Victoria, BC's new nostalgic Folk-Americana group, CALICO, are ready to release their debut LP, Under a Sudden Sun.

Named after that magical moment when the first light of the day peaks out from behind the hills, Under a Sudden Sun is a tranquil and meditative experience.

Guided by the soothing voice of lead singer-songwriter, Tony Cecchetti, Under a Sudden Sun seamlessly weaves its listeners in and out of consciousness.
