  • Part of me was hoping you'd mention Arcade Fire ... but I'd say that Owen is still a good choice :)

  • @crimsong19 At the time, I actually didn't listen to Arcade Fire all that might. They're also fairly well known worldwide, and I wanted to feature some artists that might not get a lot of attention outside of Canada.

  • this vid was awesome, and it will be very useful for my radio show! :)

  • @zware88 Happy to help! :)

  • Love Owen Pallett ("I'm never gonna give it to you...)

    Ofcourse, thanks to the Arcade Fire, another awesome Canadian band, who introduced him to me :)

  • @Kiwinil Yes! Three cheers for Canadian music!

see all

  • You litterally just listed every band (with the exception of Library Voices, thanks!) in regular rotation on my mp3 player... Awesome! I highly recommend Amelia Curran, Matt Mays & El Torpedo, Said the Whale and Hey Ocean! There is so much great canadian indie music it's hard to keep up.

  • theres Royal wood and Catherine macellan

  • <3 Danny Michel and the Weakerthans, two great picks, good job!

  • @shakes1327 Mmm, I see your point. :)

  • @shakes1327

    you not only reply to comments, but you were also my first commenter on my "channel" jajaj (lol)

    thanks a bunch.
