I had a chance to sit down and chat with Canadian Country Music Icon Terri Clark last week on the heels of her big cross Canada tour announcement “Back To My Roots”. We had a chance to discuss what was going to be special about this tour and why she thought it was time for a tour like this. Terri also cut a few songs for our Mason Jar Sessions and tomorrow we will release the 1st tune. So be sure to check back tomorrow for a killer stripped down, acoustic version of one of Terri’s biggest hits!

Madeline Merlo – Whatcha Wanna Do About It – Mason Jar Session
This past fall we had a chance to sit down and have the very talented Madeline Merlo to cut a couple songs for our Mason Jar Sessions. Here is the 2nd of those songs, her current single Whatcha Wanna Do About It. My personal favourite of the two. Crank it up!

Chase Rice @ Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver
Chase Rice and the JD & Jesus tour hit the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver this past weekend and the place was ELECTRIC. This was the first time seeing Chase Rice & The Cadillac Three perform. I have covered events at the Commodore in the past but this one seemed to just have a bit more energy to it.
River Town Saints – Mason Jar Sessions
These boys may not be a house hold name YET. But let me tell you if you go see them live you will be sold immediately. They are a great group of fellas that love to have a good time. This is their first single at radio and it’s got that real cool groove to it. Get ready to crank this one up cause A Little Bit Goes A Long Way is on the rise! And please share this one, just as the title suggests a little share does go a long way.
Madeline Merlo -Mason Jar Session – Honey Jack
We had a chance to have the very talented Madeline Merlo join us for a fantastic Mason Jar Session on a cool fall morning in Toronto. Madeline currently has this one being played at radio across Canada. Honey Jack is a catchy cut that really showcases the vocals of Miss Merlo. Don’t be shy folks share this one around tell your friends. Heck, tell your friends, friends. Sharing is caring and we care a bunch for Madeline so sit back and crank this one up!
The Road Hammers – Mason Jar Session – Mud
Well, we nailed down one of Canada’s biggest country super groups to hit the stage. The Road Hammers were in Aurora, Ontario a couple weeks back and so kindly cranked out an acoustic session of MUD for us. We want to thank the guys for doing this one. Crank it up! #MUD
