About The Sheepdogs:

The Sheepdogs are Canada’s leaders in rock ’n’ roll entertainment. Four-time JUNO Award winners from Saskatoon, with multiple Gold and Platinum records to their name, they blend killer harmonies, dual-guitar wizardry, and a stage presence that turns audiences into true believers.

The Sheepdogs deliver the real goods: rock music that’s loud, loose, and full of soul. They’ve taken their unmistakable sound from bars and roadhouses to festival fields and arenas around the world, earning a well-deserved reputation as one of the most electrifying live bands today.

With 13 releases — including the recent companion EPs Paradise Alone and Hell Together — the band continues to prove that the spirit of classic rock will never die. Now, thanks to their own label, Right On Records, they are masters of their own destiny. Their new single, “Nobody But You,” is the first taste of new music to come and proof that The Sheepdogs are charging full steam ahead into 2026 and beyond.

About Chloë Doucet

“Toronto singer-songwriter Chloë Doucet makes winsome pop that owes just a little bit to jazzy ’60s pop, but what her 2024 album Sincerely, really reminds me of is late-’90s The Cardigans. The songs are lithe, breezy and very catchy with an undercurrent of melancholy to cut the sweetness just a little.” -Brooklyn Vegan

This collection of songs is gutsy and assertive, exploring themes of emotional sincerity in the melodic and refreshingly honest musical language that is uniquely Doucet’s own. The past few years have been spent touring; opening for Canadian indie legend Hayden, and playing showcases It’s A School Night in LA, and New Colossus in New York City. Her next project takes her on a cross-Canada family band tour with Whitehorse; her dad and step mom’s spaghetti-western tinged rock band. The family band is complete with the youngest Doucet, Chloë’s 11 year old brother Jimi who’ll be playing keys for the full tour.
