There are many rock bands Jen & Drew grew up listening to, but we rarely get to talk about them on this podcast - why ? Because Canadian rock bands are not always in the spotlight internationally but they are often played on Canadian radio stations due to our content laws. So in this episode, we talk about the history of rock music in Canada from the 1950s to today and listen to our favourite Canadian rock songs !
