Summer is here, and so is a fresh soundtrack from Calgary’s incredible music community. Throughout the season, we’ve had the chance to discover artists from across the city, each bringing their own sound, story, and perspective to the Calgary Guardian’s playlist.
Now, we’ve brought those discoveries together in one playlist. From emerging voices to established local talent, these tracks offer a snapshot of the artists who caught our attention this summer—and a chance to keep their music playing long after you’ve finished reading their stories.
