Youth in Revolt

Years ago, being young and talented was more than enough to pave a road to eternal happiness, wealth and good health. But alas, the world has changed and youth today are faced with more ruin than remedy.

Pulling inspiration from this destruction, UK’s itoldyouiwouldeatyou presents a musical repertoire full of gripping poetry atop opposing playful beats, creating a moving blend of indie-pop, punk, and emo.

ITYIWEY vocalist, Joey Ashworth, takes us through how they perfectly encapsulated the hopelessness-riddled angst that plagues youth today in their new EP, Get Terrified (April 20).

Feeding Ambition

Life as an independent musician is hard enough. Now try being a mother-and-father folk duo raising three young kids, between writing, recording and running an organic grain farm in rural Manitoba. That’s the unique challenge that Kenton’s The Young Pixels, conquers to continue creating the music they love.

On the cusp of releasing their fifth record, ‘Fever of Becoming,’ (Out April 13) we spoke with Tricia Turner, one half of the married musical duo, about balancing life, internal turmoil, and the inextinguishable voice from your inner dreamer.
