It's hard not to enjoy Sloan, one of Canada's most popular bands.

Their debut album back in '92 , "Smeared", is on several critics lists as one of the best albums you've never heard.

Here's "underwhelmed", still a fave of mine.

If you enjoy blues style rock, Matt Minglewood might appeal to you.

If you're from the east coast of Canada, you know every word and every note in "Can't You See", which tells the familiar story of missing your woman after going our west to look for work.

Ron Sexsmith desrrves to be more than a critic's favorite down here.

There's a guy named Fred Eaglesmith who's a great singer-songwriter, too.
