Edmonton-based alternative-folk artist Kaeley Jade announces her sophomore album, The Great Unknown, arriving April 10, 2026 (Independent). Produced by JUNO Award-winner Hill Kourkoutis, The Great Unknown is a cinematic plunge into the dread, conflict, and uncertainty that arise when we reach a turning point. There is catharsis in letting go of that which no longer serves us, and The Great Unknown invites listeners to embrace life's unpredictability, confront the moments that challenge us, and celebrate the beauty found within its ever-shifting tides.
Alongside the album announcement, Kaeley shares "Wisest Fool”, the follow-up single to her #1 Indigenous Music Countdown song "The Ceiling.” Where "The Ceiling" was born out of conversations about global unrest and feelings of powerlessness, "Wisest Fool" is a song about undying, unfiltered, unstoppable love. Rather than whispering quiet confessions, “Wisest Fool” encourages us to shout our love from the rooftops.
“Wisest Fool” and “Poltergeist” (from 2022’s Turpentine LP) have been tapped as new theme songs for CBC Radio One’s Edmonton AM. Catch the instrumental versions on air, and look for a brand-new video for "Wisest Fool" coming later this month.
