About Devin Cooper
Country-rocker Devin Cooper continues to prove that he does country music his way and doesn’t apologize for it. Kicking off 2025, Cooper secured six Country Music Alberta Nominations, making him the most-nominated solo artist at this year’s awards. This recognition is a testament to the success and impact of his 22-track double album, Good Things: Deluxe Edition released in 2024.
Cooper’s signature sound fuses raw gritty rock ’n roll vocals with heartfelt, authentic songwriting. Driven by bold guitar riffs and anthemic energy, Cooper effortlessly blurs the line between country and rock, creating music for those with small-town roots and a rebellious spirit. Cooper’s sound strikes a chord with anyone who craves honest country lyricism infused with a bold, edgy energy. Marking the start of a new chapter, Cooper’s anthemic single Memories That Made Us is available everywhere now. A full-band live album, recorded at the Calgary Stampede

About Mariya Stokes
Mariya Stokes is a country-Americana artist known for her quick wit, candid storytelling, and for unapologetically stealing your Grandma’s clothes. With a voice as distinct as her retro style, Country Music Alberta’s two-time Female Artist of the Year released her debut album Mood Ring in 2025, and kicked off 2026 with four Country Music Alberta nominations, including Album of the Year.
Originally from Stavely, Alberta, Stokes has had an incredible few years. ​In 2024, she earned national recognition as a semi-finalist in SiriusXM’s Top of the Country, in partnership with the Canadian Country Music Association, further solidifying her reputation as one of Canada’s most promising rising artists. With the release of her debut album, Stokes is ready to share her next chapter - a sound that’s as bold and unapologetic as the stories she’s been telling since day one.
