‘Harry’s House’ – Harry Styles

This one feels obvious. With Harry teasing HS4 for most of 2026 so far, I’ve been fully reminded of just how much I love Harry Styles. As a lifelong Directioner and longtime Harry fan, HS4 truly cannot come soon enough. Yes, Harry’s House is on repeat, but if I’m being honest, it’s been his entire discography. Someone wake me up when HS4 finally drops.

‘Another Picture’ – Blondshell

I’ve had Blondshell’s new album Another Picture on repeat since it came out in November. I’m obsessed with the ’90s alt-rock vibe and her raw, confessional lyrics.

“Cowgirl” – Ora Cogan

I came across this song, Cowgirl by Ora Cogan one day and couldn’t stop listening to it. It is unique, alluring and cinematic through its lyrics and production.

‘Lost in Light’ – Tumble

A psych-rock takeover of Dina’s Tavern this past October introduced me to Toronto’s very own, Tumble. Since forming in 2022, Tumble has been making waves in the Canadian underground rock scene, electrifying audiences across various iconic Toronto venues and opening for acts like PIGSx7 and Crown Lands. Drawing inspiration from heavy-rock acts of the 1960s and 70s, the trio is without a doubt one of my favorite local discoveries of this past year. In 2025 the band released their debut EP, Lost in Light, and toured eastern Canada and the UK. I’m eagerly anticipating what Tumble has in store for audiences in 2026, and I highly recommend that you give them a listen.

“Hando-Chogua” – DAESUNG

I’ve had Hando-Chogua by DAESUNG on repeat. He has returned to his high-energy, trot bangers, and I’m so here for it. His last major hit in this genre was Look At Me, Gwisun back in 2008, so this feels like a long-overdue trot resurgence.

Just like that release, Hando-Chogua is another collaboration with BIGBANG bandmate G-Dragon and leans fully into comedy. The song’s storyline revolves around exceeding the limit on a credit card but also the singer’s heart being over the limit. The music video and the song play into the sillyness of the character with creative wordplay of both love, and finances, being over the limit. 10/10 watch and listen for both a super catchy song and a goofy video.

‘The Canyon Riders’ – Canyon Riders

I recently went to Elevate Music Project in Vancouver and loved Canyon Riders’ performance, so I’ve been listening to a lot from them, specifically “The Canyon Riders” album. If you love country music like I do, this album is a great mix of a rock/country vibe so I would definitely recommend. “Cigarettes and Sunglasses” is definitely on my most played from the album!
