In The Spotlight

Half Moon Run – “Favourite Boy”

Formed in 2009 in Montreal, students Conner Molander, Dylan Phillips and Devon Portielje took their classical training and omnivorous musical influences and created an one-of-a-kind sound. With Isaac Symonds completing their multi-instrumentalist quartet in 2012, they released their debut album “Dark Eyes”. They toured worldwide, opened for Mumford & Sons and played major festivals.

Taken from their third album “A Blemish In The Great Light”, their new single is an euphonic masterpiece, reminiscent of the great soft-rock and AOR bands of the 70s & 80s, such as Survivor and America. With a skillfully layered arrangement of the sleek synths, gentle guitars and a refreshing piano, it’s their harmonious vocals adding a dreamy edge that make this retro-dipped jam irresistible.

Bedhead – “Fight No More”

Born just outside of Toronto as Veronica Racanelli, this Canadian singer and songwriting grew up in an artistic household, sparking her journey into her own creativity. She’s studied painting and photography, as well as music, explaining the vivid imagery of her lyrics, which cover topics like mental health and heartbreak. With her lush, eclectic sound, she debuted with “Bitter” earlier this year.

Lyrically making a statement of the desire to move from a negative, depressing time in your life to a more positive future, her sophomore single is a perfectly produced pop banger. Rich in swanky synths and a rousing rhythm, the crisp melody forges a shimmering soundscape, in which her empowering, purposeful vocals give it a bit of a bite and emanate an auspicious hope for a renewed destiny.
