Story
Streaming numbers surged, with our monthly Spotify listenership doubling to over 100,000. Our latest album Be Kind. Rewind. hit one million streams in its first week, driven by consistent content, national touring, and strong traction on digital platforms.
With FACTOR’s support, we had the opportunity to provide direct support to Dear Rouge on their Canadian tour, perform at major festivals, and maintain a steady release schedule to keep momentum building. Our music was also featured in the Stanley Cup Finals broadcast, giving us national exposure and reinforcing the global reach of independent Canadian artists.
FACTOR funding gave us the ability to create strategically, perform consistently, and grow sustainably as full-time musicians. We’re incredibly grateful for the continued support.
