GENTLE – “Introvert Anthem”
Country: Canada
Genre: Indie Rock
Words From the Artist: “If you’ve ever seen that meme where the guy is at a party, standing in the corner watching others dance and having fun while he laments “They don’t know about ___”, this song is about that guy. Social anxiety sucks, but sometimes you can spend too much time in your own head judging everyone around you. I am constantly struggling with this. I often have trouble in social situations and end up cowering in the corner, but then I catch myself thinking condescending thoughts as a self-defense mechanism and it’s a rabbit hole I hate going down. I try my best to convey this with the line “oh my god he’s just like me, secretly a comedy”. I’m identifying with Robert Deniro’s character in Taxi Driver by thinking I come off as a mysterious lone wolf, but really I’m just a punchline who can’t get through a conversation.”

The Mesa – “Settle Down”
Country: US
Genre: Indie Rock
Words From the Artist: I recorded this song in 2019 and planned a much earlier release. Then 2020 happened. Things didn’t go as planned. Looking back on it now, the chorus lyrics “time doesn’t wait for me” have a new significance to me. In the spirit of this song, I’m releasing this to be enjoyed because life is too short and there may never be a perfect time.

Alic Ward – “Wooden Army”
Country: Canada
Genre: Alt Rock
Words From the Artist: “I wrote Wooden army in 2011 in the midsts of a very long battle mentally with my life. Essentially I was hitting rock bottom emotionally yet forced to wear a smile everyday in my personal, and professional life. The lyrics flip between first, and third person dialogue; taking you on a journey through the daily struggles of a person who fears asking for help but knows it’s the only way to survive… The Wooden Army itself represents a game “life” a hard game to play, such as chess (wood pieces) Essentially it’s saying make the right move…”

Patrick Krief – “Eloise”
Country: Canada
Genre: Indie Rock
Words From the Artist: His self-reflective song, “Eloise,” is about meeting someone at the wrong time, and looking back years later, wondering what might have been. The lyrics feel like a love letter to a long lost love, asking when the two lovers might meet again. It was partly inspired by his own parents’ love story. “My father followed my mother from Morocco to several other countries as her family moved from place to place in search of a better life,” Krief explains. “Ultimately they found a life together in Montreal in the early 60s. I imagined what it might have been like had my father lacked such persistence. And in that character, I imagined the longing he might feel for the rest of his life.”
