Moon Dog Music congratulates 3x-Maple Blues Award-nominee, and acclaimed Canadian blues-rock guitarist, Chris Antonik, on the success and impact of his new album Morningstar, which was released on August 5, 2022, on Second Half Records in partnership with Moon Dog Music.  

Morningstar is an ambitious, powerful, and epic blues-rock album, that features guest appearances by 2x-Grammy Award-winner Mike Mattison (Tedeschi Trucks Band, Derek Trucks Band), multiple-Maple Blues Award-winner Paul Deslauriers, and 3x-Blues Music Award-nominee Jarekus Singleton.  

With its incendiary blues-rock guitar playing, poignant song writing, lush sonic landscapes, and exceptional guitar solos, Morningstar is having quite the impact on the blues-rock landscape – it’s topping radio charts, resonating with blues fans, and garnering high praise from music critics. 

Rock and Blues Muse proclaimed Antonik is “focussed on making music that advances the state of blues/rock and guitar music…..and is creating music that will stretch your soul when you hear it. He’s a fully developed artist working on something big. We should all be listening.”

Right after its release, Morningstar rocketed to #1 on Canada’s Roots Music Report album charts and spent two weeks on top. In the U.S., the album hit #3 for blues-rock and #20 for blues (U.S. Roots Music Report).
