Today we release the grungy alternative banger Ice Tea from Skye Wallace!

"The song itself is about the impossible expectations and definitions of worth pervasive in the music industry (and beyond), and being unafraid of defying them.” The inspiration behind the sentiment comes as Skye announces their first pregnancy, and the pressures and assumptions that come along with that as an artist.

“Architect’s Studio,” the newest release from Tariq Hussain, is out today, alongside the announcement of an EP titled “Scroll Before You Sleep.”

About the song, Tariq shares “This is a story about a poet who doesn’t have a lot of money who sleeps in an architect’s studio. Every morning, they vacate the premises, sneaking out before all the real architects come in to work. Do they have a place to go, friends or anybody who cares about what happens to them?”

A groundswell of gripping slacker rock, non-binary singer-songwriter CJ Wiley doesn’t waste any time. Twirling guitars, a steady drum beat, crunchy bass; ballads twanged slightly country, anthems skewed slightly grunge; a message of love and anger, healing and rancour; all of which are found on their debut LP, So Brand New, set for release on February 28, 2025 via Tiny Kingdom.

Their new single, "Adelaide," is out everywhere you listen to music.

Tariq returns with the new single, “The Ballad Of You And Me”, out TODAY!

STREAM HERE: https://orcd.co/tariq-ballad

FROM THE PRESS RELEASE:
A stalwart of the Canadian indie scene for decades, this release marks the beginning of a new chapter and new sound for the songwriter. Decidedly louder and more immediate, Tariq trades in soft folk harmonies for full-throated wails. The smooth bass and drum groove sets the table, while the chorus is a whirlwind of screeching guitars, pounding drums and fuzzed-out bass. However, Tariq’s lyrical prowess takes center stage as he casts a wish to escape from reality amid personal and global chaos.

“The world feels faulty in so many ways, “ says Tariq on the new song. “The economy is in a slump, your devices keep breaking down, and your relationship is on the rocks. At the same time, a popular TV series you love to watch with your lover is coming to an end. So you imagine an escape from it all, a place that has no endings, where hurt cannot touch you or them.”

Fictionalized, from David Vertesi is available everywhere today! https://found.ee/dv-fictionalized

Fictionalized, is the clearest synthesis of his wide-ranging pop philosophy yet. Effectively a concept album on the collective spiralling of the pandemic years through an intensely personal lens, Vertesi crafts the most potent and memorable melodies of his career. With featured performances from a lineup of some of Vancouver’s brightest talents: Jordan Klassen, Haley Blais, Jill Barber, and Sam Lynch, plus co-production from the likes of Jonathan Anderson (Andy Shauf, Aidan Knight), Klassen (Dear Rouge, Jillian Lake) and Daniel Klenner (Peach Pit, Babe Corner), Fictionalized marks a new and defined landscape for Vertesi. As powerful and personal as he’s ever been, as cathartic and kind as he’s ever appeared.

Today David Vertesi shares his single and video for “My Parents House” which features the exceptionally talented Sam Lynch. About the song, David shares: "In 2020 my place began a renovation, which resulted in my wife and I, along with our 2-year-old, living at my parent's house for a year. We were grateful to be there, but living in someone else's space for that long wasn't easy. This song is about all the hard things we can't control that we go through with the people we love. Sometimes, there's hardly a point in talking about it. We both know it's hard. We just have to get through to the other side."

We are thrilled to announce that the multi-talented David Vertesi has joined the TK family and today shares his newest single ✨Who Am I Now?✨

David share’s about the song: This song was born out of the individual and collective renegotiation of self I have witnessed since 2020. With my band of 15+ years on indefinite hiatus, I was attempting to do this for myself. However, I couldn't help but notice that everyone around me was doing the same: leaving jobs, moving cities, and ending relationships. But whether mourning or celebrating the loss of our old lives, it seemed like we were all asking ourselves the same question.

We’ve been major fans of David throughout our careers and are excited to be working with him to release this next project. Stay tuned, there is much more to come!

Survivor’s Guilt from Haley Blais is OUT NOW.

https://orcd.co/hb_survivorsguilt
\

“Survivor’s Guilt” puts us at the scene of the crime where everything fell apart: the death of the family dog. I originally wrote it as this sad piano ballad, but David Vertesi (Producer) shifted the song towards something more summery and upbeat, contrasting the song’s stark lyrics and showcasing a sweltering slide guitar a la the style of Sheryl Crow’s “All I Wanna Do”. As we get older, inevitably we’ll lose things that are important to us. And when those losses come out of decisions, sometimes you can’t help but blame yourself. Sometimes the death of a childhood dog bursts up out of you, representing so much more than a dog, representing nothing more than a dog.”
