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 fast-rising Montreal indie rock trio.

Caveboy - Landslide


Caveboy is an indie pop group from Montreal composed of Michelle Bensimon, Isabelle Banos, and Lana Cooney. The band stated that landslide is about desire, attraction, and the urgent and unavoidable need to connect with someone at that very moment.

“We wanted to make a music video that would elevate the raw sensuality and electricity of the lyrics. And working with D.W Waterson was a no brainer. Her fierce passion and artistic talent were hard to ignore. Landslide speaks of an insatiable hunger to see real progress for equality in our industry and the world”. The music video finds the group moving through a steamy, sweaty, hot yoga session which then evolves into a neon lit party.

Executive of the Week: FACTOR's Meg Symsyk on Why Supporting Canadian Music Means Supporting Cultural Sovereignty

The president and CEO of FACTOR, one of Canada's most crucial music funders, explains why it's more important than ever to support homegrown culture and give it the opportunity to compete on the global stage.

When it comes to supporting Canadian music, FACTOR's influence is immeasurable. One of the most crucial funders of art in the country, the non-profit's impact is seen with its logo across countless acclaimed records and its name shouted out at concerts and award shows. But for president & CEO Meg Symsyk, it's not just about supporting Canadian music or even Canadian artists: it's about the sovereignty and identity of the country itself.

“Buying locally is more important than ever because of that consumer awareness and structural support. Canadians need to be encouraged to be more intentional. This last year and a half with the tariffs and the trade wars has put that on everyone's front burner,” she explains.
