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 Saskatchewan band whose lineup features rising star Andy Shauf.


Foxwarren - Lost on You

This group of siblings and childhood friends from the Prairies is now based out of Regina, Saskatchewan. Members include Andy Shauf, Dallas Bryson, and brothers Darryl Kissick, and Avery Kissick.

Shot by Mark Klassen and Hope Little, the video is set in Nevada's Death Valley as they light up the desert with experimental lighting effects and LED tubes.

Shauf looks back on the group's debut release in an interview: “So much time and effort went into making this album; it's something I think we're all really proud of … Making the album was such an enjoyable time - the collaboration and frustration of it all. All of us are trying to make something better than we previously had. We've been a band for 10 years or so and never properly released an album, so this is special for the four of us.”

Of note: Shauf is currently receiving international success as a solo singer/songwriter.

Canada Announces $600 Million Investment in Music and Media Amidst Online Streaming Act Controversy

As the U.S. government and major online streamers like Spotify and Apple Music push back against the so-called "streaming tax," the Canadian federal government will make its own investment to "provide stability and immediate support to Canada’s audio and audiovisual sectors."

The Canadian government is stepping in to support Canadian music and media amidst debates around the Online Streaming Act.

This morning (June 3), the government announced that it will offer immediate financial support for music, audio and audiovisual media with a $600 million yearly investment. The release says funding will "provide stability and immediate support to Canada’s audio and audiovisual sectors and keep our culture accessible and affordable for all Canadians."
