Lydia Sutherland has had a whirlwind year - or a few, to say the least.
This year, she released her EP pretty girls donât cry, has written with some her favourite songwriters - and got dropped from her first major record deal.
Lydia reached out prior to the release of her latest single âNashville, Nashvilleâ to talk about her year.
In the best place sheâs ever been mentally, with a healthy routine, writing the best songs sheâs written, losing her record deal turned out to be something she needed.
We talked about the lessons sheâs learned through this journey, the investment in her mental health, and what she has in store as she continues to make her way as a songwriter.

Sarah Vanderzon grew up south of Montreal, Quebec. Blending her influences and style, Sarahâs sound infuses folk, pop, and country music.
Being very shy growing up, stepping out of her shell has been a process. We talked about Sarahâs journey to the spotlight at center stage - even if she still hides behind her instruments.
In 2023, Sarah was a finalist on Quebecâs spin off of The Voice, âLa deuxième voixâ and was coached by Quebec icon Roxane Bruneau. She used this experience to grow her fanbase, increasing her presence on social media and releasing her EP âSame Sad Eyesâ.
This year, Sarah took to the stage at Boots and Hearts Music Festival for the Emerging Artist Showcase. Not only did she make it to Sunday and perform on the main stage before Nate Smith, but she took home the title for the year.
We chatted more with Sarah about growing up, leaning into her creative side, âLa deuxième voixâ, Boots and Hearts, her adorable corgi, and more!

This week on the podcast we have the busiest touring band that we are aware of in Canada ... the country duo Nice Horse.
Brandi and Katie, otherwise known as Nice Horse, joined us ahead of the release of their self-titled album.
We started with talking about our morning routines ... and teetered on the edge of becoming a beverage podcast. But once we were all well caffeinated (except for Katie ... she somehow doesn't drink caffeine) we dug in to the music.
Katie and Brandi have been friends for years.
Bonded through their love for music and writing, these two exude passion and it remains the pillar in the band. This band has gone through a couple of evolutions, but it all led them to this point. The release of their album.
We hope you love this episode as much as we loved recording it.
