It goes like this: millions of records, a couple dozen hits, a Juno Award for Band of the Year, and ongoing sold-out shows across Canada. Universal Music acknowledges them as "one of Canada's top five selling bands of all time" and the Vancouver Sun has called them "Canadian rock heroes of the first order … the best performing band in Canada". In 2023 they were inducted into both the Canadian Music Hall of Fame and Canada's Walk of Fame.

Then, as now, what makes Trooper what they are is great performances and great pop songwriting.

Trooper's ten studio albums have earned multiple gold and platinum awards and their 6 X Platinum greatest hits, Hot Shots, continues to be one of Universal Music Canada's best selling catalog CDs and one of the country's most enduring party soundtracks. In celebration of the band's 35th anniversary, a totally updated and re-mastered collection - "Hits From 10 Albums" - was released, featuring songs spanning the entirety of their recording career. John Kereiff, writing in Gonzo Magazine, dubbed the collection "THE summer album of 2010."

"We're Here for a Good Time (Not a Long Time)", "Raise a Little Hell", "The Boys in the Bright White Sportscar", "Two For the Show", "Pretty Lady" "Good Ol' General Hand Grenade", "Round, Round We Go", "Santa Maria", "Janine" - just a few of the Trooper hits that, according to writer Ryan Sparks, "have woven their way into the fabric of this country like no other bands have been able to do. Tune into any radio station from Vancouver to St John's and you're bound to encounter one of their dozen hit radio anthems that are still featured in heavy rotation to this day."

Dan Brisbois of canadianbands.com writes, "They've won practically every Canadian music award possible and they've been dubbed 'Canada's Greatest Party Band' … and rightfully so." Bob Mersereau, author of The Top 100 Canadian Albums wrote, "Trooper's Hot Shots has been one of the biggest-selling albums in Canadian music history. It has gone six times platinum, and sells consistently, as do tickets to Trooper gigs. There are shows and festivals across the country where the annual Trooper show is practically an official holiday." Indeed, Trooper continues to consistently sell out shows across the country - often performing for three generations of fans - demonstrating that the band and its music remain borderless, timeless, and ageless.

It's no exaggeration to say that Trooper has become a Canadian legend. They continue to perform their huge collection of hits with the vitality and sense of humor that has served them well on their steady march through the hills and valleys of Canadian Rock and Roll.

For over two decades, Protest the Hero have existed at the outer edge of progressive metal in a place where technical precision collides with razor-sharp lyricism, and an irreverent spirit refuses to play by genre rules. With their latest release Within, the Ontario-born band pushes deeper into uncharted territory, delivering their most sonically expansive and ambitious work yet. Since forming as pre-teen friends, the band has built one of the most respected catalogs in modern progressive metal. The releases of Kezia, Fortress (Certified Gold in Canada), Scurrilous, Volition, Pacific Myth, and Palimpsest have earned them a Revolver Golden Gods Award, multiple Canadian Independent Music Awards, 5 Juno Award nominations and 1 win. Their albums have consistently charted in Canada while cultivating a fiercely loyal global fanbase. Protest the Hero have toured extensively alongside acts like Killswitch Engage, Between the Buried and Me, Tesseract, Periphery, Propagandhi, and appeared on major stages including Vans Warped Tour and Australia’s Soundwave Festival. Praised by outlets like Alternative Press, Decibel, and Guitar World, they remain known for explosive live performances, fearless songwriting, and unwavering commitment to artistic independence.

With a combined 30 nominations, 8 Juno awards a Grammy, Raine Maida (Our Lady Peace) and Chantal Kreviazuk have spent three decades shaping the sound of contemporary music both separately and together. Their partnership extends well past music. They have received multiple humanitarian awards for their work with Warchild and Mental Health and are Order of Canada recipients.

As one of Canada’s most influential couples Maida and Kreviazuk are stepping into a bold new chapter with includes a forthcoming double memoir due out August 5th, a new album together and an exciting fall tour. Their show defies usual concert experiences. Extraordinary musical performances alongside unscripted moments between songs that only a couple who have truly lived and created together could offer. It’s a night that moves you, surprises you and stays with you long after the lights come up.

Twenty-five years after The Fallout launched Default into the forefront of Canadian rock, the band is marking the milestone with a celebratory run of Western Canadian and Ontario tour dates and special 25th Anniversary Edition vinyl and CD releases. Special guests Wide Mouth Mason and Limblifter will join Default on select dates throughout the tour.

Originally released in 2001, The Fallout became one of Canada’s most successful rock records of the era, launching the band’s career with hit singles including the Billboard Mainstream Rock hit “Wasting My Time,” which helped establish the band’s U.S. profile, “Deny,” and “Slow Me Down.” Twenty-five years later, Default will hit the road to perform songs from the landmark album alongside fan favorites from throughout their catalogue.

“It’s hard to believe it’s been 25 years since we released The Fallout,” says Default frontman Dallas Smith. “Those songs changed our lives and opened doors we never could have imagined. We’re incredibly grateful to the fans who have supported this band from the beginning, and we’re excited to celebrate this milestone by getting back on stage and playing these songs together again. The Fallout will always hold a special place in our hearts, and we can’t wait to share these shows with everyone.”
