Foxwarren: Sunset Canyon

Foxwarren is a group comprising two brothers and childhood friends, Dallas Bryson, Avery Kissick, Darryl Kissick, and Andy Shauf. Formed more than a decade ago, the band was put on hold while Shauf pursued what is now a very successful solo career. Foxwarren reconvened and released an acclaimed debut album last year.

This video is directed by Laura-Lynn Petrick and features actress and comedian, Busy Phillips. Laura-Lynn’s work documents the dynamic aura of individuals and the sublime qualities of nature itself. The visuals for the video are inspired by Italian neo-realism.

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.
