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.
Carly Thomas – Train Station
WATCH | Train Station:
London singer songwriter Carly Thomas is one of the pillars in the music community in the Forest City. Known for strong songwriting, solid delivery and catchy tunes, Train Station is no exception. Try Train Station for an upbeat weekend daystarter and keep an eye out for Carly’s next live show on June 5 at London Brewing Co-operative.
SHEBAD – Black Walnut
WATCH | Black Walnut:
One of the best additions to Ontario’s acid jazz music scene in recent years has to be Guelph’s SHEBAD. Ahead of a Sunday afternoon performance in London, CBC’s London Morning played Black Walnut from the band’s 2024 album Music is the Answer. Black Walnut is an entrancing song with strings and horns, interlaced around a driving beat and silky vocals. Black Walnut is a great song for your next party playlist.
Boy Golden – Moontan (featuring Cat Clyde)
WATCH | Moontan:
Boy Golden delivers another great track with Moontan featuring Stratford singer songwriter Cat Clyde. Moontan has a lot going on besides twang, it delves into some low-key funk hiding in the backbeat. Moontan is a versatile song fit for a range of playlists.
