I’ll start - Tananas. It’s basically the soundtrack to my early adulthood. They were the Dave Matthews band of South Africa.

    For Canada I’d say The Tragically Hip.

    I’m not sure such a thing is possible now that fewer people listen to music from specifically Canadian sources. It used to be: commercial radio and music television, and both had strict Canadian content regulations.

    I think there’s still a chance for artists to be well known locally, but it would probably be based on where they play shows, and maybe social media.

      I had no idea they weren’t internationally renowned, but I grew up listening to 89x so I guess it would make sense that I knew of them despite being American.
