The Good Brothers are one of Canada's most celebrated Country, Folk and Bluegrass groups, marking more than 50 years of music with eight Juno Awards, multiple Hall of Fame inductions and countless tours across North America and Europe.

Formed by brothers Bruce, Brian and Larry Good in the early 1970s, the trio built a reputation for exceptional musicianship, sibling harmonies and an energetic blend of country, bluegrass, folk and Celtic music. Career highlights include performances with legends such as The Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane and Gordon Lightfoot, headline appearances at Massey Hall and Roy Thomson Hall, and a certified Gold album.

In 2025, The Good Brothers celebrate their remarkable legacy with the release of "Now That You're Gone," a deeply personal tribute written by Bruce Good in memory of his late son, Dallas Good of The Sadies, who also perform on the recording. With new music and live performances, The Good Brothers continue to inspire audiences more than five decades into an extraordinary career.

It all started with a snowstorm. Husband-and-wife duo, Kevin Kennedy (vocals, guitar) and Jane Carmichael (vocals, ukulele, guitar, accordion, bells, kazoo) became The Marrieds in  December 2010 during London, ON’s infamous “Snowmageddon” while snowed in together for 3 days. They wrote a snow song each day, posted them on YouTube, and within hours became one of the most-viewed channels in Canada and garnered national attention from CBC Radio.

Known for their playful folk-pop-roots sound filled with clever lyrics and sweet harmonies, The Marrieds have released several nationally-acclaimed records, including their Snow Song Trilogy (2011), Self-titled (2011), Saving Hope (2013),  Fire In The Flame (2016) and Heavy Hearts (2019).

The couple are also two-time Forest City London Music Award Winners (Folk/Roots), Canadian Folk Music Award Nominees (Vocal Group of the Year), Toronto Independent Music Award Nominees (Folk/Roots & Best Music Video), and the winners of Folk Music Ontario’s “Songs From The Heart” competition in the Roots Category.

Sharing the stage with luminaries including Kathleen Edwards, Rose Cousins, Bahamas, Bedouin Soundclash, The Trews, Danny Michel, Lennie Gallant, Valdy, Ian Thomas, Tommy Cash, Fluke Holland, and many others, The Marrieds perform for audiences across Canada, winning praise for their songwriting, performances, and charm.

Hailing from Six Nations of the Grand River, and fresh from his triumphant performance at the Los Angeles Kia Forum in front of 18,000 screaming fans for ‘Life is a Carnival: A Musical Celebration of Robbie Robertson’, Mohawk artist Logan Staats continues to prove his performance and songwriting ability. Recent highlights include a Juno Award nomination for his album ‘A Light in the Attic’, receiving the TD SOCAN Indigenous Songwriter Award, earning a Native American Music Award win in the U.S., and charting #7 iTunes Rock Chart for his single ‘Deadman’. Logan first rose to national prominence when he won CTV’s ‘The Launch’ and released his debut single ‘The Lucky Ones’ which peaked at #1 in Canada.

As a land defender, a cultural tastemaker, and a sought-after collaborator, he has performed and created with artists such as Allison Russel, Terra Lightfoot and Serena Ryder. He has brought his raw and electrifying performances across Canada, and around the world, with dates in the U.S., Europe and South America, and acted as support for Mumford & Sons, Eric Clapton and Steve Earle.

Fast-rising country singer-songwriter Jade Hilton is making waves with her new single “I Want a Cowboy.”

Written by Hilton during a holiday songwriting retreat at her parents’ farm in Norfolk County, Ontario, she later brought the track south to Muscle Shoals, Alabama, where it was recorded live off the floor. The session was engineered by Craig Alvin, known for his work on Golden Hour by Kacey Musgraves. “I Want a Cowboy” blends Hilton’s classic country influences with a modern edge and offers an early glimpse into the music she is preparing for her upcoming album.

Last year, Hilton’s breakout single “Dive Bar” earned her national attention, including from SiriusXM Canada, Breakfast Television, Global TV’s The Morning Show, CityNews and CTV’s Etalk, who called Hilton “the hottest new talent in country music.” Since then, Hilton has delivered standout performances at Country Music Week (as part of the CCMA Awards weekend) and Folk Music Week (as part of the Folk Music Canada Awards Weekend). She was also named a finalist for the 2025 Boots and Hearts Emerging Artist Showcase and made her debut at Cavendish Beach Music Festival, The CNE, The Royal Winter Fair and Departure Festival. Just last month, she headlined The Rivoli in Toronto for the first time and sold out the venue. In 2026, she will be on the main stage at Ottawa Bluesfest as direct support for Jessie Murph and Cody Johnson, and also at Misty City Music Festival supporting Jon Pardi. She was also nominated for Country Music Ontario’s Breakthrough Artist of the Year and performed at the awards last month.

A versatile performer and community advocate, she appeared in a worldwide Make-A-Wish PSA alongside John Cena. Fearless and driven, Sarina continues to raise the bar for independent female artists.
