Claire's walkabout

I am an avid fan of CBC radio2. It wakes me up and I listen to it all day at work. The best part of it is that I know all these great Canadian bands and artists and nothing about Lady GaGa. Whoever she is. Here are my faves right now:

Melissa McClelland
Beautiful voice. My favorite songs right now are Victoria Day and A Girl Can Dream

Royal Wood
Just listen to this song and try not to become a fan!

Basia Bulat
One of the most unique Canadian voices since Feist.

Great Lake Swimmers
This is the next great Canadian band. You heard it here!

Pulling On A Line is my favorite of theirs.

Happy listening!
