Blair Lee – “Torn” (Natalie Imbruglia)
Before releasing her original tunes, Toronto singer-songwriter Blair Lee was a classically trained pianist and attended audio production school. Her tracks sound about as crisp and clean as you might expect, especially when linking up with a producer like ModMaxx, who some of her city’s biggest artists have looked to as well. With a wispy […]
Kaleah Lee – “Dreams” (Stevie Nicks)
Racking up more than 73 thousand followers on her TikTok page – where she continues to post covers – and even earning a shoutout from Taylor Swift after covering one of her tracks, Kaleah Lee‘s indie folk soundscapes, calming energy, and spectacular voice have already landed her some premium Spotify playlist placements and a collaboration […]
Bratboy – “Kiss Me” (Sixpence None The Richer)
The Vancouver punk duo of Bella Bébé and Megan Magdalena (formerly known as bb) recruited drummer Tony Dallas into their ranks and came out of the pandemic swinging as Bratboy. Although the pop punk genre is experiencing a modern-day resurgence, the band offer a decidedly retro spin on things with dizzying tempos, surf-pop elements, playful […]
FIONN – “Little Bit of Red” (Serena Ryder)
It’s a well-established fact that twins are skilled harmonizers, and that’s only further proven by Vancouver folk-pop outfit, FIONN. The duo made up of Alanna and Brianne Finn-Morris have been singing together since their preteen years. Nodding to their roots and mixing in the degree of Celtic inspiration that their band name suggests, the duo […]
Madisyn Gifford – “32 Flavors” (Ani DiFranco)
In her last interview with RANGE, Madisyn Gifford cheekily dubbed her music “bitchy pop,” but we’ve come to realize that she’s covers much more ground than that. Gifford is basically Vancouver’s answer to the cavalcade of mega-popular Gen Z pop stars who combine their ear for a great hook with instrumentation that’s a little heavier. […]
KT Laine – “Always Be My Baby” (Mariah Carey)
Like Marlaena Moore, even having previously played shows together, KT Laine is an Edmonton transplant currently living in Montreal who fits into the indie-pop space. With a folkier flair reminiscent of her prairie upbringing and an appreciation for vintage recording equipment, most of Laine’s compositions are relatively minimal, something that is offset by her haunting […]
Marlaena Moore – “Hands Clean” (Alanis Morissette)
Marlaena Moore’s music spans about as widely as she does across Canada. Originating from Edmonton, currently operating out of Montreal, and a well-known veteran of Calgary’s Sled Island Music Festival, her confessional lyricism recalls her bedroom pop beginnings but has since been applied to an updated package blending together sounds of grunge, jangle pop, and […]
Michaela Slinger – “Insensitive” (Jann Arden)
Port Moody resident Michaela Slinger will tell you that she has been singing before she could talk, even performing the anthem at an NBA game at age three. A passion for storytelling soon caught up to that natural desire to perform, which she now combines with synth-pop and upbeat dance grooves that retain a little […]
