Please join Jex and I today for a repeat of a personal favourite episode from both of us.  This was our 2023 Canada Day celebration, which I am running again today at 1:00 PM EST (July 1, 2025).  When Jex and I did this show originally, it happened to fall on June 30.  I am happy to run it on the actual date of Canada Day in 2025!

If you missed this episode, it was a really special one.  For Canada Day, Jex and I dug through our collections of physical media to present what we think are the Top 11 Canadian Bands that are less known outside Canada.  It was a very popular episode and a great way to re-launch Grab A Stack of Rock list shows.  (You can even see a remnant of the ill-advised “heels era” in Harrison’s art if you look closely!)  Most importantly, this episode showcases a whole bunch of bands that you really need to check out.

Thanks Jex Rambo Russell for a terrific Canada Day celebration.  We wanted to list 11 Canadian bands that we thought you should know.  I think we did a sweet job of it, with plenty of really cool “Show & Tell” on vinyl, cassette and CD.  Loads of rarities and obscurities here to check out, and a music video as well.

HAPPY CANADA DAY!  Below you’ll also see a graph of the cities from which the listed bands originated.  Hamilton won handily!  Check out the show and see who, what, and where!
