Toronto roots-rock ensemble The Strumbellas release a new single, "Salvation," on Nov. 30, on their own imprint, Underneath A Mountain Records, which is under exclusive license to eOne Music for Canada. 


The partnership with eOne is new, and Chris Taylor, Global President, Music, Entertainment One, pledges in a press release stated that “we are going to take very, very, very good care of them. Their manager has too many incriminating photos of me to do anything less!” He adds that "The Strumbellas are a global force of nature and we are so excited that they have honoured us with the opportunity to work with them on this new music,”

“We are thrilled to be calling The Strumbellas partners,” stated Chris Moncada, General Manager, eOne Music Canada. “Even with all the success the band has enjoyed over the last few years, we feel like they are just getting started, and are very excited to be a part of the next phase.” 

The band is in the studio, working on its fourth album, is riding high on the success of its last project, Hope, which came out in 2016 on the Six Shooter Records imprint in Canada, and Glassnote Records internationally. "Spirits" became a runaway hit for The Strumbellas, hitting No. 1 on the Billboard Alternative Songs chart in the US, and cracking the international charts in countries including Germany, Italy and France.

Our Early — But Not All That Early — 2027 Grammy Nominations Preview

Last year at this point, four of the eight albums that were later nominated for album of the year had been released and a fifth was just weeks away.

The 68th annual Grammy Awards were presented just nine days ago, so how can we already be thinking ahead to next year’s awards? Well, even though many execs who flew out to L.A. for the Grammys haven’t even filed their expense reports yet, we’re nearly halfway through the eligibility year for the 69th annual Grammy Awards – Aug. 31, 2025 through Aug. 30, 2026.

Last year at this point, four of the eight albums that were later nominated for album of the year had been released – Leon ThomasMUTT, Tyler, the Creator’s CHROMAKOPIA, Kendrick Lamar’s GNX and the eventual winner, Bad Bunny’s Debí Tirar Más Fotos. A fifth eventual nominee, Lady Gaga’s MAYHEM, was just weeks away from its March 7 release. The other three nominated albums were both released during the summer: Clipse’s Let God Sort Em Out and Justin Bieber’s Swag (both released on July 11) and Sabrina Carpenter’s Man’s Best Friend (on Aug. 29, just one day before the close of the eligibility year).
