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 prominent Canadian videos, including this one from an acclaimed singer/songwriter with an honest ethic.


Tim Moxam - Honesty

Consider this a social experiment of sorts. For Honesty, Toronto singer-songwriter, Tim Moxam, already had the video in mind well before the song came to life. Moxam wanted to grow his hair out and wanted to see how he would be judged based on his appearance.

Throughout the video, we see Moxam portraying different characters. It reflects on the idea of trying on different identities or masks to find our true selves. We are the adventurer, entrepreneur, traveller, tourist etc. “We retain bits of each manifestation of our developing personalities, eventually forming a version of ourselves that we choose to present to the world around us. Deep down inside, though, beneath each mask we wear is our honest selves. That, we cannot hide from,” he says.

Shania Twain, Les Cowboys Fringants and The Tragically Hip Hit the Billboard Canadian Albums Chart After Canada Day

In the spirit of patriotism, these classic Canadian acts are re-entering or rising on the charts.

It's the week of Canada Day, and some of the nation’s favourite legacy artists are back on the charts.

On the Billboard Canadian Albums chart dated July 5, L'amerique Pleure, the concert film soundtrack by Quebec rock band Les Cowboys Fringants, reemerges at No. 97. Loosely translating to “America cries,” the soundtrack’s name comes from a track on the group’s 2019 album, Les Antipodes.
