Broken Social Scene's next record, Remember the Humans, their first since 2017, is set to come out this April. And, last week, their hit song "Anthems For A Seventeen Year-Old Girl" was certified gold in Canada. Today, they share a new single titled ''Not Around Anymore''.

The Toronto indie rockers have also called on some of their contemporaries, including Metric, who also have a new record in the works, as well as Montréal's Stars, for a nostalgic North American tour.

The tour will begin in Austin, TX in early June before concluding in Toronto at the RBC Amphitheater August 8th. Remember The Humans is due out May 8th via Arts & Crafts, the storied Canadian label which has had all three bands on its roster over the years.

Grammys 2026: The Complete Winners List

The wait is officially over: The biggest night in music is finally here! On Sunday, the top names in the industry gathered for the 68th Grammy Awards.

This year’s competition is stiff, with Kendrick Lamar, Lady Gaga, and Bad Bunny leading the pack as nominees. All three will face off for Album of the Year, and Lamar will also compete for Song and Record of the Year. Gaga was also nominated in the three big categories — Album, Song, and Record of the Year — for Mayhem and “Abracadabra,” while Bad Bunny picked up his second Album of the Year nod, for DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS, as well as his first nod as lead artist for Song and Record of the Year for “DtMF” (he was previously nominated in the latter category for “I Like It” with Cardi B and J Balvin).

ICE Out at the Grammys: Bad Bunny, Billie Eilish, SZA, Olivia Dean Speak Out

Bad Bunny, Billie Eilish, Shaboozey, and Olivia Dean all took home Grammys Sunday night, and all took a moment during their speeches to speak out on behalf of immigrants or call out ICE as the Trump admin’s brutal and deadly immigration crackdown continues.

Bad Bunny shared arguably the most pointed and poignant words while accepting the Grammy for Best Música Urbana Album, which began: “Before I say, ‘Thank God,’ I’m going to say, ‘ICE out.’”

Grammys 2026: The Best, Worst, and Most WTF Moments

This year’s Grammy broadcast is in the books, and it was another entry in what’s become a refreshing tradition of talent-packed shows that put the music first. We got some memorable performances, some incisive speeches, some well-deserved wins — and a handful of head-scratchers, because that’s a given with any awards show. Here are the best, the worst, and the WTF moments of the 2026 Grammy Awards.

Working for SCA sure looks like fun. For her “Manchild” performance, Sabrina Carpenter came sliding in on a baggage claim belt just in time to pull a dove out of a magician’s top hat and get bleeped for saying “Fuck my life.” The scene saw a surgeon, a magician, a priest, an astronaut, an explorer, and a Hawaiian-shirted dude, among others; they danced and raised questions about the security protocol at the airport, but everybody’s having so much fun (especially Nikki Glaser, who joyously mouthed along with Carpenter’s F-bombs), so who cares. Plus, it ended with Carpenter holding the magician’s dove, which is difficult to do, making this an automatic best.

Lola Young Makes Triumphant Return at Spotify’s Best New Artist Grammys Party

Spotify’s Best New Artist party remained one of Grammy week’s hottest tickets on Thursday night at the Lot at Formosa. Where else can you see eight Grammy-nominated acts perform their biggest songs back-to-back while sipping top-shelf cocktails, surrounded by some of your favorite artists?

After a hiatus last year due to the devastating L.A. fires, the streaming giant returned with its marquee event, bringing together the diverse group of performers up for Best New Artist. The highlight was by far the return of Lola Young, who performed for the first time since stepping away from the stage after fainting at a music festival.
