This showcase features the 2025 winners of the program, highlighting some of the most promising new voices in Canadian music across a variety of genres, including R&B, country, and folk.
The Artists
This is a unique opportunity to see five distinct artists on one stage: Braden Lam, Andie Therio, John Fellner, Jennarie, and Annabel Oreste. The RBC Emerging Musician Program is known for identifying top-tier talent, and this showcase is a testament to the depth and diversity of the Canadian music scene. It’s a chance to say you saw them before they hit the big time.
