The 2019 Prism Prize for Best Canadian Music Video was awarded to Kevan Funk, for his clip for Belle Game’s Low. We will continue to profile noteworthy Canadian videos, including this one from a popular Toronto female rock band.


The Beaches: Snake Tongue

Juno-nominated band The Beaches are an edgy rock group from Toronto starring Jordan Miller, Kylie Miller, Eliza Enman-McDaniel, and Leandra Earl. Their single Snake Tongue shows what it means to let go of the unwanted, in this case by lighting it on fire.

Jordan Miller said in an interview, "I wrote Snake Tongue about our own experiences, but hope that it empowers women who are constantly on the receiving end of unwanted attention to take back some control in small but meaningful ways."

A unique aspect of this video is that there is a vertical version to watch on a mobile device. Snake Tongue is off the 2019 EP The Professional.

Influence Media Wins Bid to Acquire Anthem Entertainment’s Music Assets

Sources say the BlackRock-backed company bid slightly above $650 million for the assets, though the deal has yet to close.

Apparently, the third time really can be the charm, as sources say Influence Media Partners has emerged as the winner in the auction for the music assets of Anthem Entertainment, the Canadian music firm that houses music publishing assets and recorded masters royalties from the likes of Rush and Timbaland.

While two earlier efforts to sell the firm in 2017 and 2022 came up short, sources suggest that in the third go-round, the successful Goldman Sachs-shopped deal saw at least two bids come in above the $600 million mark, even though most other bidders were said to be in the $500 million to $600 million range before dropping out. In all, sources suggested that about a dozen suitors kicked the tires on Anthem.
