Good Buddy
Fontine's debut full-length Good Buddy marks  a gritty, heartfelt turn from her folk-leaning EP. Recorded live to tape with her road-tested band, the album captures the loose, unfiltered energy of her live shows, pairing raw instrumentation with Fontine's powerhouse vocals and emotionally rich songwriting. It's a rock record with a sensitive core — scrappy, cathartic, and full of heart. The title track, "Good Buddy" uses CB radio slang for queer love as a playful, anthemic entry point into a record about identity, connection, and vulnerability. Fontine, who identifies as Indigenous and queer, brings humour, honesty, and a deep sense of place to her writing. From personal struggle to activist fire, her lyrics are grounded and bold, wrapped in a sound that blurs the lines between alt-rock, Americana, and indie folk.Â
With over a million streams, national CBC radio support, and a growing live presence across Canada, Fontine is emerging as one of the most vital new voices in Canadian roots music. Her breakout charisma, fearless storytelling, and genre-fluid style make Good Buddy a debut worth turning up loud.
