2011

Calgary's resident musical genius, Jay Crocker, steps out from behind the mixing board, returning with Co-Stars. Hard to pin down? Maybe. Worth giving into? Definitely.

The year starts off right with Deadhorse's, selt-titled debut. This release will get people talking about Calgary's psychedelic revolution.

2010

Light and dark. Exultation and despair. Love and death… Supermodern World Of Beauty, the debut offering by Calgary musician Ryan Bourne, is a kaleidoscopic descent into a realm of contrast.

Rae Spoon is both the hunter and the hunted. His latest album love is a hunter is a pop-infused exploration of identity, contradiction and longing.

Key To The City, the new, slimmed-down version of Calgary popsters Vailhalen, debuts their monster-themed, metaphor-laden album Owls Of Getchü.

The Parkas may be gone, but with the raw rock riffs of You Should Have Killed Us When You Had The Chance as their swan song, they won’t soon be forgotten.

2009

Matthew Swann dons his Extra Happy Ghost!!! persona for his debut EP, How The Beach Boys Sound To Those With No Feelings.

When your sound’s this big, you need three people to fill out your duo. And after one listen, Ultimate Power Duo’s big sound will be your New Normal.

The much-anticipated third solo album from Calgary’s minstrel laureate, Lorrie Matheson, is sure to get under your skin and In Vein.

2008

Our first across-the-ocean collaboration sees us bringing Hospital Bombers’ debut album, Footnotes, to North America.

The inherently indie pioneering spirit of the Prairies lives on in the compilation Saved By Saskatoon.

If you like Ayla Brook’s work with AA Sound System, check out his first solo album, After The Morning After.

The long-awaited debut album from Ghostkeeper, Children of the Great Northern Muskeg, emerges like the first blushes of an Alberta spring.

Likened to both bulldozers and Guinness, Junior Pantherz’ new album Rejoice, Remain is dark, driving and intense.

2007

Kara Keith strikes out on her own (with some backup) on the five-song Kara Keith EP.

The Summerlad’s highly anticipated epic soundscape, City of Noise, makes its way to CD and vinyl.

Relocating to Sudbury for love and learning has given Nathan Lawr new impetus on his musical journeys, now gathered on his third album, A Sea of Tiny Lights.

The Parkas’ long-awaited second album, available on CD and on vinyl, invites you to be adventurous and Put Your Head in The Lion’s Mouth.

The debut album from Calgary’s quietest and most naturally-oriented band, les.petits, collects two earlier EPs in one long-player: the.mighty.antlers.of.song EPs.

Mark Davis figures the time has come to do something new and unpredictable. Like, say, put out two records at once: Don’t You Think We Should Be Closer? and Mistakes I Meant To Make.

2006

AA (that's Double-A) Sound System let it ride on their second full-length CD, Laissez-Faire.

Jay Crocker brings big band arrangements to pop music with Melodies from the Outskirts.
