Congratulations on the nomination! I wonder how artists come to be considered for this? I must see a hundred new local releases every year, and I don't see any of those names in the nominations.

Probably. But in what way, in particular?

That is super cool. Congratulations. So cool seeing people out there doing stuff.

Not my thing but I actually enjoyed the song.

Good job.

What is your favourite Calgary album? What constitutes the best (or even what constitutes a “Calgary album”) was left up to the individuals. Some of the answers are well known while others are beyond obscure. Some can be found at Calgary’s finer record shops while others will take a miracle to unearth. One way or another though the following is our stab at compiling the best records in Calgary history.

Look for theYYSCENE in a monthly print form beginning September 1

We’re excited to announce that what was once planned for April 1 will now come to fruition Sept. 1 when we drop Issue No. 1 of what we hope will be an important part of Calgary’s long-term recovery. You’ll be able to find it a businesses and boxes throughout the Beltline and core, with a reach into the further afield communities.

What can you expect?

Well, much the same as the website — arts, music, lifestyle, culture and more — albeit with more consistency and diversity in our coverage and from our writers

It was derided at the time but I always thought Colour Me Psycho's follow up record was a masterpiece.

Now I need to dig out my "It Came from Canada" records!

Hey pals!

Hope everyone is doing well these days! My band, betaboys, just dropped a new song today. This one, along with “So Shy”, are now available on all music platforms. We’re going to be releasing our first EP on May 7. I’m so excited to get these songs out there, it’s been 4 years in the making. Hope you enjoy!

Thanks for sharing this! The EP (and essentially my tribute to Ric Ocasek) is out today. It would mean the world to me if you pals have the songs a spin. I hope you enjoy the songs and thanks for the ongoing support!

A Calgary teen (and close family friend) has become a global pop sensation, and most people in Calgary over 25 have probably never heard of him:
