London Morning’s associate producer, Ryan Soulliere, listens to a lot of music for his role picking tunes for the show. In any given week, that’s about 25 songs. Here are his top three local and Canadian picks from last week.
Pony Gold – Montreal
WATCH | Montreal:
Montreal by Pony Gold will help you ease into your weekend mornings. Built on a slow jam with an essence of Blue Rodeo, this guitar and keys driven track is made complete with silky and warm vocals from Theresa Anne Bromley. Montreal is an ideal daystarter song that will also work well when it’s time to unwind.
Mélisande & Jacobus – Francos d’Amérique
WATCH | Francos d’Amérique:
Quebec’s Mélisande blends traditional french folk sounds with electronic music that makes for some high-energy, foot-stompin’ fun. Francos d’Amérique featuring Jacobus is a glowing example of Mélisande’s mastery combining both genres. Try Francos d’Amérique on your next party mix or when you need an energy boost.
Charlie Houston – Lewps
WATCH | Lewps:
Charlie Houston’s Lewps is a fresh mid-tempo track with notes of 90’s electronica. From her album Big After I Die, Lewps is a real earworm that will have you singing along by the second chorus. The low key vocals from Houston are the icing on the cake, making Lewps a great song to play for your next gathering.
