  1. Three Canadians Talking Texas with Mitch Zorn

    19H AGO

    Three Canadians Talking Texas with Mitch Zorn

    Send us a text Mitch Zorn has been celebrating the release of his debut EP Mitch Zorn. We caught up with him during his Calgary Stampede adventures. Mitch grew up in a town of 1000 people, rural Nakusp, British Columbia, where he joined his family band at just eight years old. It wasn’t long before he was headed South to work in the oil fields in Texas. Mitch would spend five years going between there and Nashville to write songs on his weeks off. We talked a lot about how working in the oil fields really inspired and shaped his songwriting.  Mitch decided to move home after five years down South and really started to work on recording music. A chance encounter with representatives of 604 Records at his show led to him celebrating his first record deal in mid 2024. Since then, Mitch has released singles leading up to his EP, started touring throughout Canada, and participated as a semi-finalist in SiriusXM’s Top Of The Country competition.  Keep up with Mitch Zorn on Instagram, TikTok and Facebook.  We’re so excited to bring back Season 4 of On The Porch with Front Porch Music.

    Rally Around or Ride The Bench with Sully Burrows

    Send us a text Sully Burrows grew up in Parry Sound, Ontario, surrounded by small-town charm and a family that pushed him to pursue music from an early age. Starting out on piano, he shifted to drums before finally picking up a guitar and learning to sing. His first co-write with Owen Riegling opened a whole new world and kicked off his journey into songwriting. He’s big on practice and repetition, always working to sharpen his skills and write songs that feel real and relatable. Sully pulls a lot of inspiration from his own life and his hometown roots, and you can hear it in the stories he tells through his music.  It has been a big year for Sully. And being one of the finalists for the Top of the Country competition, it's clear that he is going to have an even bigger end to the year.  RELATED: Learn more about the Top of the Country competition ...

  3. “From City Kids To Steroes to Delta Sweet” with Pat Kordyback

    “From City Kids To Steroes to Delta Sweet” with Pat Kordyback

    Send us a text Pat Kordyback discovered his voice after losing interest in hockey and skateboarding. Learning to sing in his teens, Pat was inspired by the sounds of motown, which would foreshadow a little ‘doo wop’ in his future. Getting together with Miles Holmwood, Robert Chalifoux, Daniel Johnson, and Aaron Verdonk, Pat would spend his early 20’s as the frontman for Canadian pop punk rock band Stereos. The band blew up after being featured on Much Music’s “disBAND”, and winning over Gene Simmons.  Stereos would teach Pat a lot about life in a band, being a rockstar (and unlearning the rockstar attitude), and hard work rehearsing five day a week paying off. Hits like “Summer Girl”, “Throw Ya Hands Up” and “Butterflies” would send the band up the charts. After his punk rock days would come to a close, Pat decided to lean into his Alberta side, and begin writing and recording country music.  We talked with Pat about his career highs, lows, and more. We talked about the Stereos whirlwind, lessons learned from that exact whirlwind, and how his country music career aims to spark something new. We also talked about the Oilers….and his lifelong dedication to his hometown NHL team. His current single “Drive 85” is out now, which follows previous singles, “Outta Money, Outta Mind”, “Pour A Little My Way” and “Whiskey Like You”.  Follow Delta Sweet on Instagram and TikTok.

    “From The Badlands To Purple Gas And Zach Bryan” with Noeline Hofmann

    Send us a text Noeline Hofmann burst onto the scene in 2024 with the duet release of her single “Purple Gas”, after it caught the attention of Zach Bryan. At just 21 years old, Noeline knows the vitality of building community as a young artist. After playing her local Alberta circuit for a few years, managing jobs at the grocery store and on a ranch, and attending school, Noeline set her sights on a career in music.  In just one year, Noeline has toured with Charlie Crockett, Wyatt Flores, Zach Bryan, Turnpike Troubadours and more. She made her Stagecoach debut this year, and just had a full circle moment at Railbird Festival (find out why in the episode). We talked to Noeline about the whirlwind she’s been on over the last two years, from packing up her car and heading for Kentucky and Tennessee, to a duet with Zach Bryan, her current busy schedule on the road, and more. She also taught us how she manages to keep her schedule straight; a few weeks at a time. Noeline is also Sirius XM Top of the Country finalist and we can’t wait to catch her at the finale in Kelowna this September. Follow Noeline Hofmann on Instagram and TikTok.

    Go Hockey! with Nashville Based Country Artist Melissa Livingstone

    Send us a text On this week’s episode of On The Porch, we’re hanging out with Canadian country artist Melissa Livingstone, and let’s just say—this conversation is as fun as it is heartwarming. Melissa joins us from Nashville, but her roots run deep in the small town of Ucluelet, BC (which she kindly teaches us how to pronounce). Geography isn’t exactly our strong suit, but we get there... eventually. We chat about her journey from coastal Canada to the heart of country music, her early influences—including her mom teaching her to play piano—and the moment she knew music was the path she had to follow. RELATED: Melissa is one of our artists to watch for this year. See the rest of the list ... Melissa shares her hard-earned wisdom from playing in the bars on Broadway, and gives honest, helpful advice for anyone thinking about making the big move to Nashville. Spoiler: it’s okay to not go out every single night—rest is part of the grind, too. We also dive into her catalogue of music, doing a little vibe check on how each release reflected where she was at in life and in her artistry.  Whether you're a fan of Canadian country, dreaming of Nashville, or just here for some good porch talk—this episode has a little something for everyone.
