Six Shooter Management is ecstatic to welcome July Talk to the roster. “We have been following July Talk for years as both friends and fans,” says Six Shooter’s Shauna de Cartier. “We love their music, we align with their social and political views, and we adore them as people.  We are over the moon to be working with this band.”

A condemnation disguised as a benediction, Ensign Broderick’s BloodMyth speaks out against hate, pernicious nationalism and vainglorious self-destruction through characters that embody these, the very worst, ways of being. The album is an inverse/reverse/perverse excavation of 2018’s BloodCrush, a meditation on frailty and fallibility that edged ever closer to the brink.

anya Tagaq is one of Canada’s most written about, celebrated and original artists. As comfortable on world stages in couture as she is steering a quad over the land in her home of Cambridge Bay, Nunavut, Tagaq’s complexity, originality, strength, gentleness and humour is not easily captured in word or video. With studio albums, collaborations across classical, indie rock and metal worlds, a Giller Prize long listed debut novel and countless other multi-disciplinary projects in the works, Tagaq’s art is a universe unto itself.

The wait for The Dead South’s third full-length album is nearly over. Today, the band announces extensive SERVED COLD tour dates in Canada, Ireland and the UK along with a clip that hints at the direction of the forthcoming album, due this fall via Six Shooter Records.

Six Shooter Records, Weber Shandwick and West End Phoenix present the second edition of the New Voices Scholarship for young music writers. Any individual 18 and under living in Toronto is encouraged to submit a short personal essay (no more than 400 words) on the question:

Welcome to our live album. As we recorded it – that is, as we dragged two digital tape machines and a mixing board across the country and unboxed them nightly, often in haste and with minutes to spare before hitting the stage – we had no idea that, upon reflection, this would turn out to be a defining recording for us.

From the land that never melts comes a sound that radiates life, youth and promise. Riit, from majestic Panniqtuuq, Nunavut, Canada, is a new artist making space for herself in the electropop world with deep rhythmic throat singing layered over gemological synth cuts and sticky, staticky electronic textures.

Trip the light iconoclastic, Interstellar Rodeo’s 2019 lineup brings dazzlingly creative forces together from July 26-28, 2019. For its eighth edition, Interstellar Rodeo offers a lineup for the musically adventurous and socially engaged. This year, and as annually expected, Interstellar Rodeo’s lineup is a sonically serpentine, genre gambolling convergence of excellence and eclecticism.

CIMA’s announcement of its 2019 Award Recipients is big news for Six Shooter Records. Six Shooter President, the inimitable Shauna de Cartier, will receive this year’s Entrepreneur Award in recognition of the success, longevity and vision of the label and its related companies, which include Six Shooter Management, Girl On A Horse (publishing) and Interstellar Rodeo.

Environmental, historical, futuristic, experimental: Tanya Tagaq’s Toothsayer, out today, conveys the extreme and deadly elements of winter in the High Arctic. From the nightmarish shards of “Icebreaker” to the crystalline delicacy of the title track to the terrifying serenity of “Hypothermia,” Tagaq also describes physiological sensations of snowblindness and fatal exposure to the cold in exquisitely unnerving detail.

Six Shooter Management is extremely pleased to welcome William Prince to the artist roster. “We have been fans of William for several years and it feels like the perfect fit to finally be working together,” says Helen Britton, president of the management company. “The whole team at Six Shooter can’t wait to get started on this journey with him.”
