Breakout Canadian singer/songwriter Maddisun turns her personal life into art with her third album, The Pages, released October 2, 2025. This intimate, 12-track release is structured as a musical journal exploring love, loss, and self-discovery. Blending vintage folk, rock ‘n’ roll, and Americana, the album channels the spirit of Sheryl Crow. As the culmination of her journey, The Pages aims to transform “hardest moments into beauty,” offering listeners a raw, uplifting connection.
Serving as the perfect opening track for the album, “The Pages” immediately invites listeners into Maddisun’s intimate world. Her voice is instantly captivating, possessing an ethereal clarity and a velvety, fluid tone that floats easily over the track’s searching rhythms. Lyrically, the song tackles the universal struggle of storytelling—the narrator is constantly “turning the page” and searching for answers in the next “chapter change.” This ability to sound both delicate and emotionally unwavering is what gives the title track its magnetic, human pull, confirming the album’s central message: the journey is the narrative.
The lively, upbeat track, “Good Plan,” immediately establishes itself as the album’s most irresistibly carefree moment. It captures the spirit of trusting in chaotic momentum, following a charmingly haphazard journey from meeting “Jerry” to deciding to “run with the man” without a plan. Maddisun perfectly blends excitement and confusion, keeping the track anchored by the reassuring mantra, “ooh baby it’ll all work out.” It’s an infectious, sing-along track that celebrates letting go of control and simply grabbing the moment.
“Big Star” is a compelling, aspirational anthem that perfectly encapsulates the album’s theme of resilience and self-belief. Maddisun delivers the message with unforced ease, her voice flowing smoothly over the melody as she narrates the journey of the “Mountain town honey” chasing something “bigger, something better.” The lyrics are instantly memorable and quotable, centered on the powerful, written-in-the-journal affirmation: “I’ma be a great big star someday.” The track serves as a motivational blueprint for turning intuition into reality, simply by trusting the process.
Overall, The Pages fully delivers on Maddisun’s vision of a musical journal. By weaving raw honesty with her distinct, velvety tone and a blend of classic rock and folk influences, Maddisun crafts an emotional journey that leaves the listener feeling less like a spectator and more like a fellow traveler who has finally turned their own page.
