Platinum-selling, CCMA Award-winning country artist Robyn Ottolini has released her highly anticipated new single, “Oh, Canada” … a track that doubles as both a patriotic anthem and a deeply personal reflection on chasing dreams far from home.
A Song Born From Pride and Longing
Co-written with acclaimed songwriters Michael August and Jesse Slack (Owen Riegling’s Moonshines), and produced by Grammy-nominated Jordan Schmidt alongside Lenny Pey, “Oh, Canada” captures the bittersweet emotions of leaving home to follow your passion while staying rooted in the identity of where you came from.
“‘Oh, Canada,’ this song is for you!” says Ottolini. “It’s also for anyone who is proud of their roots and chasing a dream while missing home, no matter where you’re from.”

The lyrics paint vivid imagery of Canadian life—“from the beaches of Tofino to the cliffs of St. John’s”—making it a moving love letter to the Great White North.
Fans Have Been Waiting for This One
Fans have been clamouring for “Oh, Canada” since Ottolini teased the track on social media, where previews racked up over 250,000 views. She also performed it during several events at this year’s CCMA Awards in Kelowna, BC, building even more excitement for its release.
Momentum Keeps Building
Ottolini’s latest radio single, “Airplane Bottle,” is currently climbing the Canadian Country Radio charts, sitting at #35 and rising quickly. Its honest, cheeky take on a disastrous first (and last) date has earned her thousands of new fans, with many dubbing her the female Sam Hunt.
And she isn’t slowing down. This November, Ottolini will headline her “Way, Way Back” Tour across Ontario and Montreal. She’ll be joined on select dates by a stellar lineup of rising Canadian artists, including Parker Graye, Savannah Jade, Laila, Lucas Mason, Dave Sampson, Jessica Sevier, Tanaeya, and Vibi.

In country music, the Front Porch has long been a place of reflection. A place where you can look at the life you have inside that front door. A place where time almost seems to stand still, where you can get away. It’s also a place where you can go to observe the world as it passes by you. To think about your place out there beyond the driveway.
