Little Brown Jug Brass honours family legacy in heartfelt new single “My North Star Home” featuring Ashley Ghostkeeper
“My North Star Home,” a deeply moving new single featuring famous Métis artist Ashley Ghostkeeper, is the return of Little Brown Jug Brass, who are known for their lively mix of funk, jazz, and roots. The song is a heartfelt tribute to family, legacy, and the lasting advice of loved ones.
The group’s trademark brassy reinventions are mixed with introspective lyrics about hard work, love, and wisdom passed down through generations in “My North Star Home.” The song narrates the tale of a father whose lessons and dedication endure even after his demise. The lyrics paint a picture of family, strength, and the “north star” that guides us all the time, from long summer days in the fields to the values he taught his kids.
Ashley Ghostkeeper’s singing adds warmth and closeness to the song, which goes well with Little Brown Jug Brass’s lively, funk-infused music. The song is both heartfelt and impossible to stop listening to because it has a perfect mix of soulful storytelling and the group’s signature high-energy arrangements.
Little Brown Jug Brass has been called “bringing the party” because their sound combines funky jazz, roots influences, and brassy reinventions into something both familiar and new. “My North Star Home” adds a deep, reflective layer to the band’s music that shows how versatile they are while still keeping the positive energy that fans love.

Amanda Fagan unveils lost love and regret on latest release “Forever Yearn”
Amanda Fagan‘s latest release, “Forever Yearn,” is a tragic love story of pride, lost opportunity, and the harrowing knowledge that some mistakes can never be undone. A young couple at heart, wild and almost in love, but whose pride prevents the relationship from flowering. Their story doesn’t end with seeing what went wrong. It hurts more because you don’t see it for years.
“It’s a song about breaking cycles, but the characters are caught in the consequences of their choices. They learn from their mistakes, but knowledge cannot change the past. What remains is the longing for each other, which gives the song its emotional weight and its title, “Forever Yearn.”
Inspired by Emily Brontë’s Wuthering Heights, the song feels like a love story that never gets old. Fagan’s premise blends regret and longing, showing how pride can linger long after an alternative decision could have changed everything. So “Forever Yearn” is less about lost love than about two people wondering what might have been.

iLLLACAT brings sharp bars and catchy production with latest release “Like Dat”
iLLLACAT drops “Like Dat,” a Hip-Hop cut with punchy production, percussion, and synths that give the record movement. Bookie comes on the track and sets the tone immediately with the hard lines, “Get out of my face with the gas, we’re on the chase for the cash, if you’re moving fake I’ll pass, I’ll pack it, and I’ll put it in a bag.” The delivery is right there in the money, the movement, and staying away from anything fake.
The production leaves plenty of space to land those words. Percussion powers the track with synths adding another layer to the beat, a backdrop for the straight-up vocal approach. “Like Dat” maintains tight energy and, instead of overcomplicating its message, lets the verses do the work in terms of personality.
The line, “Steady making money while smoking a pain killer” provides another memorable moment and an insight into the attitude that runs throughout the record. iLLLACAT brings us “Like Dat”, a pure hip-hop joint with Bookie on the track. A catchy production that stays sharp, an assertive voice, memorable lines, and enough rhythmic punch to keep the record moving.
