BAD BUDDY
Tight-as-can-be three-part harmonic explosions wrapped in a gritty, primal, snarling exterior, Bad Buddy (Edmonton, Alberta) is a force to be reckoned with. The electric energy of their live show is only amplified by the exceptional songwriting ability possessed by the band. The female-fronted Motown-surf-punk band commands attention, painting powerful, sonic pictures drawn from real-life inspirations.

SUNGLACIERS
Sunglaciers’ music blurs the boundaries between polished melodicism and opaque experimentation, auspicious romanticism and unbridled dissent. Though anchored in the strange realities of our times, their songs are laced with a certain optimism through well-calculated psych elements and vibrant rhythms, making for a unique strand of kaleidoscopic proto-pop. Following up on critically-acclaimed full-length efforts Foreign Bodies and Subterranea, the Calgary outfit now returns with Regular Nature (March 29th, 2024 via Mothland).
