Hail to the North - Not by Myself


Hail to the North, emerging from Montreal, Canada, is the creative venture of close friends Jordan and Roy, with pianist Ian. Born out of the lockdown era, their debut single "Not by Myself" resonates as a strong expression of their collective musical fervor. The track serves as a symbol of defiance against the government-imposed lockdowns and restrictions in Canada. Crafted at Avbury Studios with the skilled production of Matt Noztez, the single blends unbridled passion with polished musicianship.

Not by Myself starts with melodic guitars, preceding a high-octane riff and energetic drumming. I really like the pace and the mood of the song, with catchy and energetic vocals (I love the message of the lyrics), a very solid rhythm section, and very inspired guitars (the solo is fantastic, both in terms of sound and performance). A very cool song, it will make you bang your head! Give it a go by clicking on the Spotify player below and remember to follow Hail to the North on social media.
