We are over the moon over yet another nomination for one of our artists The Dead South! This is especially exciting since these nominations by BreakOut West reflect to some degree their Juno Awards nominations earlier this year, for which they ultimately got rewarded for their sophomore album “Illusion&Doubt” as Roots album of the year. We are hopeful that The Dead South will receive another award to put under their belt – stay tuned for more news!

Very excited to announce the signing of The Weight Band, and the release of their album “World Gone Mad” on Curve Music. Featuring members of The Band, Rick Danko, Richard Manuel, Garth Hudson and Levon Helms band, The Woodstock based Weight Band is not a tribute to The Band but rather a continuation of where The Band and members left off. Members include Jim Weider, Marty Grebb, Brian Mitchell, Albert Rogers and Michael Bram… Songs written by The Band, Levon Helm… and Colin Linden.
