Song Of The Day – Hey Rosetta! – “Red Heart”

Hey Rosetta! is a Canadian indie band out of St John’s, Newfoundland.  This song is another CBC2 find for me (I love that station).  The music this band creates has a very layered sound.  They remind me of many current bands that are enjoying success out of Canada, like Arcade Fire .  At the same time, they put into the layers some sounds that remind one of a Coldplay. They have been around since the mid 2000’s, releasing 3 albums and 5 EP’s.  This song “Red Heart” is off their 2008 album “Into Your Lungs“.

Talent Tuesday – Canadian Releases – February 14, 2012

A slow week for releases here in the Great White North (snowed here today).

Hey Rosetta!

The first band we will take a look at is “Hey Rosetta!“, who released an EP today titled “Sing Sing Sessions”.  This is a set from this group of very talented musicians from Newfoundland.  Just a bunch of Canadians doing what they like to do, play.  The EP is a selection of the bands past songs done  acoustically.  I think you will agree, good stuff.

Welcome

The second artist (and final) for the week is Toronto singer/song-writer Emma-Lee.  This is her 2nd album release and is titled “Unsung Heroine”.  Listening to the featured song, I am taken by the strength in the structure of the song.  She has a great voice, and, if she keeps writing material as strong as this, she could easily become a force on the Canadian music scene.
