Edmonton Musician Garett Gunderson Shares New Single GRAVITY

Watch/Share Lyric Video HERE

Edmonton singer-songwriter and visual artist Garett Gunderson invites listeners to surrender to love’s natural pull on “Gravity,” the second single from his forthcoming album, Anywhere Anytime, due out August 21.

Warm, playful, and effortlessly romantic, “Gravity” blends a laid-back, tropical Jack Johnson vibe with a modern summer groove. The track features warm vocals and acoustic guitar, along with bubbly electric guitar and carefree percussion. Feel your feet in the sand and the tropical ocean air as this love song takes you on a romantic, sunny vacation.

“‘Gravity’ is a song about the irresistible pull of love,” says Gunderson. “We want love, we dream of love – and when it’s really there, you know it through and through. When I met the love of my life, I wasn't even looking for love. But love found me, and pulled me in.”

The new single offers another glimpse of Anywhere Anytime, an upbeat pop-rock celebration of connection, and a reminder that love can be found wherever we are, whenever we are open to it. Across the album, Gunderson’s clear, emotive vocals and honest lyrics create a sound that feels both deeply personal and universally human.

A visual artist as well as a lifelong songwriter, Gunderson approaches music much like painting, building each song through layers of colour, texture, and feeling. That creative perspective is especially vivid on “Gravity,” where each musical detail contributes to the track’s sunny setting and relaxed romantic mood.

Anywhere Anytime marks Gunderson’s second collaboration with acclaimed producer Stew Kirkwood, known for his work with Juno Award winner Celeigh Cardinal. The album also features an inspired ensemble of musicians, including Bob Tildesley on trumpet, Allison Ochoa on baritone sax, and Rob Shapiro on organ, as well as vocalists Tim Cotton and Stephanie Suchy. Together, they have crafted a record that balances heartfelt intimacy with vibrant, radio-ready energy.

With “Gravity,” Gunderson continues his exploration of life and love in the present moment. Breezy, affectionate, and full of warmth, the single offers a bright soundtrack for summer romance and a simple invitation to trust love when its pull becomes impossible to resist.

“Gravity” is available now on Spotify, Apple Music/iTunes, and other digital retailers and streaming services worldwide. For more information, please visit garettgunderson.com.

Vancouver, BC – Chest Fever and Blind Owl Records are proud to announce The 21st Century Last Waltz – Live at Massey Hall, a new live album capturing the band’s ambitious reimagining of The Band’s legendary farewell concert, recorded at Toronto’s iconic Massey Hall on November 18, 2023. The album will be released on September 18, 2026, on all streaming platforms.

Recorded on the 45th anniversary of Martin Scorsese’s acclaimed concert film The Last Waltz, the five-hour celebration brought together a remarkable cast of Canadian and American musicians spanning multiple generations. Rather than recreating the original concert note-for-note, Chest Fever approached the material through a distinctly modern lens, introducing new arrangements while honouring the collaborative spirit that made The Band’s music so enduring.

Featured performers include Canadian artists Sylvia Tyson, Colin Linden, Devin Cuddy, Skye Wallace, and The Pairs, alongside internationally renowned guests Cindy Cashdollar, Scarlet Rivera, Albert Lee, Marc Ford, Tom “Bones” Malone, Blue Lou Marini, and Bill Avis.

“There’s something very magical about this music,” says Chest Fever co-founder Dan Cervantes. “We’ve just scratched the surface. I don’t think I’ll ever be done playing The Band’s music.”

Leading up to the album release, Chest Fever will unveil a new live single and concert video every week, beginning June 26 with “The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down.” Each release will be available on all streaming platforms, with accompanying videos premiering on YouTube, offering fans a preview of the performances captured during the historic Massey Hall event.

The release also arrives as Chest Fever prepares to celebrate the 50th anniversary of The Last Waltz with select Canadian and U.S. tour dates this fall. See below for complete tour listings. 

The 21st Century Last Waltz – Live at Massey Hall will be released September 18, 2026. For more information, visit chestfeverofficial.com.

Montreal Indie Rock Project Hey Gorgeous Release New Album INTERNATIONAL BREAKTHROUGHS

Montreal-based indie rock project Hey Gorgeous share their debut full-length album, International Breakthroughs, available now on all streaming platforms. Led by multidisciplinary artist Peet Massé, the album arrives after three years of single releases and artistic exploration, marking the culmination of a creative journey that bridges music, visual art, travel, and self-discovery.

Written and recorded while completing a master’s degree in the arts, International Breakthroughs finds Massé blending raw indie rock energy with electronic textures, experimental production, and deeply introspective songwriting. Across eleven tracks, the album explores the tension between movement and belonging, documenting a search for meaning through both external adventure and internal transformation.

As a multidisciplinary artist working across music and visual arts, Massé brings a distinctly interdisciplinary perspective to Hey Gorgeous. International Breakthroughs reflects that approach, blurring the boundaries between artistic mediums while exploring how creative expression can act as a bridge between cultures, communities, and ways of seeing the world.

Inspired by the spirit of travel, the record moves lyrically between physical landscapes and the emotional terrain we carry with us. From moments of restless uncertainty to hard-earned personal breakthroughs, International Breakthroughs embraces imperfection, curiosity, and creative risk, charting a path toward connection beyond both geographical and psychological borders.

"These songs are rooted in the idea of travel and crossing boundaries, whether physical or introspective," says Massé. "They emerge from the pursuit of a forever-moving horizon, while taking the time to feel the ground moving beneath our feet. The lyrics explore the act of transcending one's condition, venturing beyond familiar territories, and embracing the uncertainty that follows. They reflect the experiences, emotions, and transformations that emerge when love, friendship, and self-growth outweigh comfort.

Ultimately, the album is about what can be achieved once we cross to the other side of those boundaries, an intertwined geographical and mental space that I have come to perceive as a series of breakthroughs."

The album arrives alongside the recently released single and video “Rocker on a Club Run,” a restless late-night anthem exploring the intersection of alternative rock and house music culture. The track serves as one of the album’s central statements, examining the search for common ground between seemingly opposing worlds.

Co-directed by Stephanie-Anne Weber Biron and Peet Massé, the “Rocker on a Club Run” video follows a fictionalized version of Massé through a surreal 24-hour odyssey across Montreal’s bars, nightclubs, and art galleries. Featuring appearances from friends, collaborators, and members of Montreal’s creative community, the video transforms the song’s themes into a visual exploration of identity, belonging, and artistic convergence.

Throughout International Breakthroughs, Massé draws from his experiences as a musician, visual artist, and traveler, crafting songs that refuse easy categorization. The result is a debut album that embraces contrasts: analog and digital, movement and stillness, introspection and celebration, rock and electronic music. Rather than choosing between these worlds, Hey Gorgeous finds meaning in the spaces where they overlap.

International Breakthroughs is available now on Spotify, Apple Music/iTunes, and other digital retailers and streaming services worldwide. For more information, please visit heygorgeousmusic.com.

Edmonton Musician Garett Gunderson Shares New Single + Video ANYWHERE ANYTIME

Watch/Share Video HERE

Edmonton singer-songwriter and visual artist Garett Gunderson embraces love, resilience, and the power of finding joy wherever life takes us on his new single and video, “Anywhere Anytime,” available now on all digital streaming platforms. The uplifting pop-rock anthem serves as the title track and lead single from his forthcoming album Anywhere Anytime, due out August 21.

Driven by a soaring chorus, warm-hearted lyricism, and an undeniable sense of optimism, “Anywhere Anytime” was born during one of the most difficult periods of Gunderson’s life. While supporting a close friend and longtime bandmate through a terminal illness, Gunderson found himself searching for light amid heartbreak.

“‘Anywhere Anytime’ is about finding love and joy no matter what circumstances life throws at you,” says Gunderson. “I began writing it while visiting a close friend who was nearing the end of his life. It was a difficult time, but music helped us stay connected and hopeful. I wanted the song to capture that feeling of choosing joy, with the big-hearted energy of an ’80s rock anthem and a modern perspective.”

Produced by Stew Kirkwood (Celeigh Cardinal, King of Foxes), the track blends classic pop-rock sensibilities with polished contemporary production, offering a preview of an album rooted in gratitude, connection, and the transformative power of love.

The accompanying music video, directed by Roberto Estrada and filmed on location in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, expands on those themes through a vibrant visual story of renewal and rediscovery. The video follows a woman as she moves from sadness toward joy through music, art, dance, and meaningful experiences throughout the city.

“I wanted the video to reflect the spirit of Puerto Vallarta, a place my parents loved deeply,” says Gunderson. “As Roberto and I developed the concept, I kept thinking about how music, creativity, and community can bring people back to themselves. My hope is that viewers feel some of that joy and sense of possibility when they watch it.”

The release arrives ahead of Gunderson’s sophomore album, Anywhere Anytime, a collection of nine original songs inspired by recovery, gratitude, and enduring love. Following a serious car accident in 2024 that temporarily sidelined his musical career, Gunderson gradually found his way back to songwriting, emerging with a renewed appreciation for life, connection, and the people closest to him.

Much of the album was inspired by his wife, Ashley, who served as both muse and first audience throughout the writing process. Says Gunderson: “I played each song for Ashley as I wrote it. Just acoustic guitar and voice. If she liked it, I got a kiss – and it made the album.”

Gunderson’s debut solo album Constellations reached #14 on CJSR’s Top Albums of 2023, while his song “Dirty Eyes” earned an Edmonton Music Award nomination in 2019. With Anytime Anywhere, he delivers an uplifting reminder that joy, connection, and love can be found wherever we are, and whenever we choose to embrace them.

“Anywhere Anytime” is available now on Spotify, Apple Music/iTunes, and other digital retailers and streaming services worldwide. For more information, please visit garettgunderson.com.

Vancouver Artist Ché Aimee Dorval Shares New Single FEEL SOMETHING

Watch/Share Live Video HERE

Vancouver artist Ché Aimee Dorval confronts the quiet pull of emotional disconnection on her new single, “Feel Something,” available now on all digital streaming platforms via Fools Game Records. Dreamy, ethereal, and propelled by shimmering electronic production, the song explores the tension between isolation and engagement, and the complicated comfort that can come from shutting the world out.

The third single from her forthcoming EP, due out in September 2026, “Feel Something” follows the release of “Carnal Needs” and 2025’s “Joyride,” further revealing a collection of songs rooted in emotional honesty, atmosphere, and self-examination. While previous singles explored desire, instinct, and freedom, “Feel Something” shifts its focus to the grey area where comfort, avoidance, and dependency begin to blur together, creating a portrait of someone caught between self-preservation and genuine connection.

“‘Feel Something’ was written about the way isolation and emotional numbness can slowly start disguising themselves as comfort or safety,” says Dorval. “It’s about shutting the world out, sleeping too much, dissociating, avoiding difficult feelings, and staying hidden away long enough that it starts to feel easier than actually engaging with life.

It can be both protective and destructive at the same time, constantly pulling things further inward, dimming the light a little more, keeping someone small, disconnected, and comfortably stuck. A lot of the song came from exploring that strange place where avoidance, depression, comfort, and dependency all start bleeding into each other.”

Sonically, “Feel Something” balances weighty subject matter with an uplifting sense of movement. Layers of breezy vocals glide over driving electronic production, creating a tension between melancholy and momentum that mirrors the song’s central themes. The result is a track that feels equally suited for solitary late-night reflection and cathartic release on the dance floor.

Co-produced by Dorval and Matt Harvey, “Feel Something” features performances by Diego Tejeida on synthesizers, Paul Rigby on guitar, and Flavio Cirillo on drums. Together, they help bring the song’s immersive soundscape to life, blending organic and electronic elements into a richly textured listening experience.

Like its predecessors, “Feel Something” showcases Dorval’s continued growth as a songwriter, producer, and sonic architect. Drawing inspiration from artists such as BANKS, London Grammar, Portishead, and Florence Welch, she continues to carve out a distinct artistic identity built on mood, vulnerability, and emotional depth.

To celebrate the release, Dorval will premiere a live performance video for “Feel Something” on her YouTube channel on June 10. Filmed during her May 23 performance at Franklin Commons Studio in Vancouver, the video was directed by Laura Harvey and shot by Lindsay Blane, capturing the song’s emotional intensity in an intimate live setting.

With “Feel Something,” Dorval offers another compelling glimpse into her forthcoming EP, continuing a creative chapter defined by atmospheric production, emotional transparency, and a willingness to explore the complexities of the human experience.

“Feel Something” is available now on Spotify, Apple Music/iTunes, and other digital retailers and streaming services worldwide. For more information, please visit cheaimeedorval.com.
