Steeped in the tradition of pop and soul music, Vox Populi is a collective that pushes the boundaries of contemporary pop music. Delivering retro vibes with a modern twist, the burgeoning quintet draws heavily upon 80’s inspired synth tones, sweet guitar riffs and pocket drum grooves, all while crafting new and memorable melodies.
It’s no secret that Vox Populi brings a polished energy and refined sound to every performance. Whether it’s fast or slow, funky or tasteful, listeners can expect to hear genuine, uncomplicated joy in every song.
Along the way, the band has notched some exciting career highlights, including opening for Juno-nominated vocalist Tanika Charles on her first Canadian national tour, as well as appearances at the indie music festival Gentlefest, and Festivale du Voyageur in 2024. 2025 also saw Vox Populi close out the Winnipeg International Jazz Festival at the Cube Stage in Old Market Square.
Now the band continues to forge ahead, with the release of their debut album Invasive Species. The album oers the listener a sonic journey of sultry lyrics, sensational guitar riffs and the deepest pockets in the known universe, all while giving a nod to the classic era it draws its source from. This is the album you want on the speakers when you’re at the cabin, kicking back with friends, watching the waves roll by in paradise.
