Emerging Canadian Pop Artists Alicia Moffet and Alex Porat Rise on the Billboard Canadian Airplay Charts

Emerging Canadian pop artists are making moves on the Billboard Canadian Airplay charts this week.

Fresh from playing an UP NEXT showcase at Billboard Canada THE STAGE at NXNE, Montreal’s Alicia Moffet is steadily climbing the Canada CHR/Top 40 chart with "Lay Your Light."

The rising pop artist's single moved up seven spots to No. 32 in its second week on the chart, dated June 21. The dance-pop track boasts Moffet’s soulful vocals to a captivating, steady beat. Released on May 30, the singer-songwriter’s newest album No, I'm Not Crying is out on Cult Nation — the label behind talents like Charlotte Cardin and Lubalin — and it looks like they have another winner on their hands.

Moffet isn't the only budding Canadian pop artist moving up the ranks.

Toronto-based Alex Porat stays on the chart with her track “Face Like Yours.” The single is part of Porat’s forthcoming EP, crushed!, out June 27. Despite being on the chart for 12 weeks, the punchy, upbeat song continues on an upwards trajectory, peaking at No. 20. Porat joined The Beaches at Billboard Canada Managers to Watch last week to pay tribute to their shared manager, Laurie Lee Boutet, who won Manager of the Year. Boutet has a good week with her acts on the Airplay Charts (more on that later).

On the Canada Hot AC chart, some well-established Canadian pop artists are rising with their new hits. Shawn Desman and Jamie Fine’s “BODY” cracks the Top 10 this week, while Avril Lavigne rises 30-33 with her hit “Young & Dumb,” featuring Simple Plan.

Emerging Canadian country singer Jade Eagleson, meanwhile, moves to No.19 with “Worth The Trouble” on the All-Format chart, and Tate McRae's "Revolving Door" arrives on the CHR/Top 40 at No.40.

McRae finds herself at various spots on the chart including No. 2 with "Sports Car" and at No. 29 with her feature on Morgan Wallen's "What I Want."

At the top of the airplay charts, there's minimal movement. Alex Warren’s “Ordinary” (also No. 1 on the Billboard Canadian Hot 100) teeters between No.1 and No. 2 on the All-Format, Hot AC and AC Airplay charts. Tyler Park rises 2-5 on the Country chart with “Park,” and Green Day’s "One Eyed Bastard” moves up to No. 1 on the Mainstream Rock Airplay chart.

Canadian artists are dominating the Modern Rock chart with Toronto band The Beaches holding down No. 1 for the second week in a row with “Last Girls at the Party,” and Vancouver alt-band Hotel Mira’s “Making Progress” moves up to No. 4.

On their way to their first arena show this fall, The Beaches have another hit in their catalogue.
