One might say that there has always been a certain gravity about Amelia Curran’s music, and—pun-centric jokes aside—her latest, “Gravity”, would back these claims. Complete with bombastic horns and an earworm of a riff, the Newfoundland singer-songwriter, mental health advocate, and activist wistfully embraces female empowerment with this jubilant leap into the world.

Whitehorse, a go-for-broke duo with a wild imagination and lethal riffs, serves up an anthem for those who get fooled – but only for a time – by the smooth talkers, the social climbers, the neon lighters, the brake squealers, the black and red detailers, the Diesel wearers, the face suckers, and all those boys who live with their mothers. Forever. And Ever. And Ever. And Ever.

Whitney Rose’s upcoming EP, South Texas Suite, is now available to pre-order online here and in the Six Shooter webstore.

Six Shooter Records is proud to announce details of the forthcoming album Watershed, from the acclaimed musician, Amelia Curran. Watershed will be released in North America on March 10, 2017 and is the followup to the widely praised They Promised You Mercy (2014), which earned Curran multiple East Coast Music Awards including Songwriter of the Year and both Polaris Music Prize and JUNO Award nominations.

“Tagaq, who is originally from Cambridge Bay, is getting the appointment for her “contributions to Canadian culture through her avant-garde Inuit throat singing.” The Polaris Prize and Juno Award winning performer released her fourth album, Retribution, this year.

To set the stage for 2017, Whitney Rose announces her plans to bring the sound of South Texas Suite far and wide. Rose’s newly confirmed Canadian tour dates, which include shows in Ontario, Manitoba and Alberta in February 2017, are part of an expansive tour of North America and beyond, with more details to come.

We are proud to have David Suzuki Foundation host a new video for Tanya Tagaq’s song ‘Sulfur,’ from the new album Retribution. Sulfur is the by-product of the processing of bitumen in the tar sands.

Interstellar Rodeo Winnipeg is thrilled to announce that Vanessa Kuzina has joined the team as Community Development Manager.

Hot off a sold-out show with Margo Price in Brooklyn, Sam Outlaw continues to tour until the end of the year with upcoming shows across the southern and mountain states. Angeleno, Outlaw’s debut, was just nominated for AmericanaUK’s International Album of the Year, alongside Sturgill Simpson, Price and Drive By Truckers.

“Drive south with the one you love,” John Hiatt wrote. In a new single, Joe Nolan taps into his own gruff exterior with a new song called “Broken Angel,” one that tells a story of love done and gone. “I drive myself crazy every time I’m passing through the city where you used to be mine,” he sings. It’s a very different kind of road trip.

Last month experimental Inuk throat singer Tanya Tagaq released her fifth studio album, Retribution, addressing politically-charged topics including climate change, the Canadian government’s treatment of indigenous communities, and the continued prevalence of sexual assault (highlighted by a somber cover of Nirvana’s “Rape Me”).
