Blue Ridge Band

Blue Ridge Band is a country trio from Lévis, Quebec, made up of Jérémy Plante, Samuel Jalbert-Raymond and Martin Aubin. Their catalog starts with the two Down to Business EPs, released in 2022 and 2023, and continues with High On You. The group records in English and also lists French versions of several songs in its official biography, providing two routes into its work.

Why they’re on Next Up

The immediate reason to catch up is their win in the 2026 SiriusXM Top of the Country competition, announced by SiriusXM and the CCMA on September 17. Blue Ridge Band took the $25,000 grand prize following the Saskatoon finale; Morgan Griffiths and Shawnee Kish were the runners-up. The competition’s artist page pairs the group with a recorded performance of One More Story, a practical place to begin.

Where to start

Follow that performance to the official One More Story video on the band’s website, then explore High On You. The French-language biography dates that album to September 26, 2025, so the competition win is the new development here. The site also links the single “Loving You is Easy” for a next listen.

For the next step, use the official site’s music and show links. Our Next Up coverage follows this new national recognition alongside the band’s existing catalog, giving a newcomer somewhere to go after the award announcement.
