In The Spotlight

Kristian North – “Halfway To Heaven”

Hailing from Montreal, this eclectic Canadian singer and songwriter spent over a decade as the frontman of punk band Babysitter. With a passion for exploring new musical genres and lyrical themes, his solo sound is an organic amalgamation of Warren Zevon’s soft-rock, Marvin Gaye’s downtempo groove and Roxy Music’s art pop. He released his solo debut album “The Last Rock N Roll Record” in 2018.

Fusing upbeat pop, lively soul and an excess of charisma, his new single binds the best elements of 80s music into one polished package. Taken from his new album “Passion Play”, it’s the mellow rhythm and the titillating horns that entice you in, where the neon-lit guitars and his suave, Bowie-esque vocal chops will enchant you. Showcasing his lyrical skills and musical mastery, this retro jam is superb.

In The Spotlight

Only Bricks – “Big Girl Shoes”

While both are practicing lawyers, this husband and wife duo finds their true calling in music. Anne DiGiovanni and Joseph Lewczak got married in 2017 and they debuted with their EP “Foundation” only a year later. Named after the lyrics of “Risk It All” by The Vamps, they build their indie-pop sound inspired by ABBA and Billy Joel, as well as contemporary artists such as FRANKIE and The Mowgli’s.

Shining a light on the continued inequality between men and women in the workplace, their new single blends upbeat indie-pop with a touch of classic punk. Starting off with bouncy guitar plucks and almost seductive vocals, this track explodes in the chorus. With 90s-touched, sonic TNT bursting out and Anne’s fiery and empowering voice, this inspiring, anthemic tune is as joyous as it is powerful.
