New & Upcoming Canadian Albums: Lights Announces 'A6,' Plus New Releases from Marie Davidson, Pierre Kwenders & More

We're back with a newly updated calendar of Canadian music, and it's filling up with new entries.

This week, Polaris Prize winner Pierre Kwenders releases his new album Tears On The Dancefloor, while playful Quebec electronic artist Marie Davidson puts out City of Clowns on Soulwax's new DEEWEE label. Yves Jarvis, whose then-untitled album made our most anticipated list for 2025, today puts out his new album All Cylinders.

Other Canadian artists with albums this week include country hitmaker Brett Kissel, prolific hip-hop artist Moka Onlyl queer-pop rising artist CJ Wiley, Albertan singer-songwriter JJ Miller, country singer-songwriter Don Amero, post-rock combo XIA-3, and, with reissues of earlier work, Filmmaker, The Hylozoists and hHead.

Meanwhile, electro-pop star Lights (readying a summer North American tour) has announced her new album A6, while '70s/'80s Canadian rock supergroup Envy of None (featuring Alex Lifeson and Andy Curran) releases their new album Stygian Wavz.

Other artists with new release dates include acclaimed roots singer-songwriter Suzie Ungerleider, alongside Melanie Fiona, Michael Cloud Duguay, Salin, Richard Moody, Vivienne Wilder, Two Hours Traffic and David Celia.
