Song: Zamboni
Notes: Zamboni is about as Canadian as it gets with references to the most popular ice resurfacing equipment in the world, the iconic Tim Hortons brand, and more. The video is a lot of fun, which is to be expected from the country-rock Canadian trio, and features Rogers Hometown Hockey co-host, Tara Slone. Enjoy!

Artist: Hozier
Hometown: Bray County Wicklow, IE
Genre: Pop
Related: James Bay, Vance Joy, The Lumineers
Song: Almost (Sweet Music)
Notes: Hozier’s indie-vibe voice carries Almost (Sweet Music) from start to finish, taking us deep into stop and listen mode. The Irish star’s new album, Wasteland, Baby! drops on March 1, 2019 and if this is a look at what we’re going to get from it, we’re cool with that.

Song: Backsliders
Notes: With Backsliders, the debut single from her upcoming sophomore album, Salt & Honey, King Of Foxes (nee Olivia Street) has given us a quick moving bop that has repeat playability. When asked about the track, the Edmonton songstress said, “I wrote Backsliders about what it’s like to grow up weird. Or at least, to be made to feel like you’re weird”. It works for us.
