Tenille Townes, Gabriel Fredette, and Cat Clyde Lead Spotify Canada’s Newest Ambassador Cycle – That Eric Alper
May 11, 2026
Spotify Canada has named its latest round of playlist ambassadors, and the lineup covers serious ground. Tenille Townes, Gabriel Fredette, and Cat Clyde are the newest faces of the EQUAL, RADAR, and Indigenous programmes respectively, each bringing a distinct voice to a platform that reaches listeners worldwide.
To mark the occasion, all 3 artists will appear on Toronto’s iconic Sankofa Square billboard. Each ambassador also curates a playlist spotlighting other genre-defying artists shaping what’s next in music.
Tenille Townes steps into the EQUAL Canada ambassador role with everything you’d expect from one of country music’s most compelling storytellers. The Grande Prairie, Alberta native, now based in Nashville, built her reputation on heartfelt, observational songwriting and vocals that don’t miss. Her advocacy for women and queer creatives aligns directly with EQUAL’s mission of amplifying underrepresented voices in music.
