Canadian Places

A musical map of the True North, Canadian Places features songs inspired by the cities, towns, provinces, territories, and regions that define our vast and varied landscape. From small-town anthems to urban ballads, coast-to-coast travelogues to prairie hymns, these tracks celebrate the places we call home—and the stories they hold. Whether it’s St. John’s, Saskatoon, the Yukon, or Vancouver Island, this collection captures Canada through song, one location at a time.
