By FYI Staff

Longtime Montreal music executive Lennie Levine’s latest venture, LL Artists, has signed a distribution partnership with The Orchard. Described as a partnership,  the music company plans to  work with artists, producers and other creators to develop unique opportunities for Canadian talent domestically and internationally. 
 
LL Artists was founded in the summer of 2020 by Levine who served as executive VP and later President of Last Gang Entertainment. Prior to that, he was EVP at the Donald K Donald Group.   With LL Artists, Levine ventures that he has created “a modern, hybrid artist management company and record label for today’s dynamic and expanding music landscape.”
 
“I am very excited and incredibly grateful to The Orchard and my artists for this unique opportunity and partnership,” says Levine. “My objective is to help and enable artists to reach their fullest potential and to be able to do so internationally. Our partnership with The Orchard is perfect because it allows LL Artists to tap into an incredibly vast distribution network and a deep analytical dashboard that will greatly benefit our roster. This wouldn’t have been possible without Lisa Logentenkow – my sincerest thanks to her, Karine Lafleur and Brooke Morgan at The Orchard for their amazing support of LL Artists.”
 
First to be released on the LL Artists label imprint, distributed by The Orchard, will be Montreal rock ‘n roll disruptors, The Flamingos Pink‘s Free Livin debut single from an upcoming sophomore album, coming out on March 11.

LL Artists will round out the first half of 2022 with the long-awaited return of Canada’s hip-hop OG and Guru’s protégé, Bless, with new music coming in May.

AP Dhillon Drops Off Coachella's Second Weekend

The Punjabi-Canadian star has faced backlash in Indian media and on social media for his guitar smash on weekend one, but the festival says he's cancelling due to scheduling conflicts.

AP Dhillon is leaving the California desert behind. Coachella announced that the Punjabi-Canadian star will not appear at the festival's second weekend as planned, citing scheduling conflicts. The festival announced it in a follow up tweet to one announcing that rapper Kid Cudi has been added.

While Dhillon's first-weekend performance was well-received by the Coachella crowd and many of his supporters, he's also had some backlash due to how he closed his set, which has been widely covered by media in India.
