Although 2020 will go down in the history books as a steaming turd of a year, there were some things worth praising. One of the few positives was the incredible amount of amazing new music created by folks living in Canada. Coronavirus be damned, musicians across this vast country pulled together and found ways to get their music heard despite all tours and music festivals getting cancelled. This year also saw rapid growth from your most reliable, 100% Canadian, new-music source… us!

Our team of incredible volunteers nearly doubled in size and between them, they published nearly 200 “Pick Of The Week” album reviews and over 200 short-form “Quick Pick” reviews. They did over 100 premieres, highlighted over 50 music videos, conducted multiple interviews, and even churned out some special articles. Tally it all up and the Cups N Cakes Network helped well over 500 independent Canadian artists with some type of coverage.

We are pretty darn proud of that!

Now with the “Year To Forget” drawing to a close, we feel it’s important to remind the lovers of independent music across Canada that there’s plenty worth remembering. Yes that’s right! We will soon be starting to countdown our favourites from 2020. Get excited, because soon our year-end lists will start to emerge and you’ll find yourself looking back on 2020 with fondness… just imagine that!
