Savannah Jade Hits the Canada Country Airplay Chart With 'More Like It'

The sophomore single from the rising Quebec country singer — one half of the duo Five Roses — arrives at No. 52 on the chart. Kingston's Headstones also debut a new track with City and Colour on Mainstream Rock, "Navigate" at No. 36.

Savannah Jade is belting her way onto the airplay charts this week.

The Quebec singer is maybe best-known as half of the country duo Five Roses, but now she's branching out as a solo singer. Her sophomore single "More Like It" arrives at No. 52 on the Canada Country chart for April 26. It's a barn-burning country-pop track where she sings about what she wants for a date night: no glitz or glamour, just jeans and the local watering hole.
