Want to know what’s new in the Canadian music scene?

Tune in online to CBC Radio 3. In addition to regular music shows and podcasts, the site also has a great “New Music Canada” característica, where you can search for new artists — from blues to pop to world music — and have a listen to their latest works.

Also download BlogTO’s Independent Music Podcasts to hear what’s new in Toronto.

For another take on up-and-coming Canadian musicians, check out writer Jane Tattersall‘s piece, “What People are Listening to in…Canadá,” over at MatadorNights.com.

Just don’t forget to turn down the volume if you’re listening in the office!
