Samantha Savage Smith was one of those names I kept hearing over and over again at NXNE. I didn’t a chance to check out any of her live sets back then but I finally checked out her self-titled album that was released back in March. From Calgary, the singer-songwriter effectively communicates some rather tongue and cheek songs emotionally. I love that it isn’t just an acoustic background to underly her track but rather a gritty guitar and at times heavy rhythm, but her voice can still carry through. I know you might be skeptical about checking out yet another female folk-sounding singer but she has a charisma that will fail to disappoint.

The Fight is an alternative rock group from Edmonton, Alberta. Their chords strum and rhythms sound very North American alternative but their voices almost have a tinge of something else. The soulful rock band is set to release an album in July on 180 gram vinyl. The album will be titled New Young Electric. Take a listen to Broken from the album. You can also stream 2 other songs Disconnected and Electric Avenue via Bandcamp.
