The Reklaws are a Canadian brother and sister country duo who got their start performing on their family farm as kids. They're known for making fun party music that can hype you and your friends up before a night on the town. But after losing their mom at the height of their success in 2022, they decided to open up about what was really going on behind the party. Their new EP, Outliving (For Mom), is a heartfelt tribute to their mother on what would have been her 60th birthday. Jenna and Stuart Walker of The Reklaws sit down with Q's Tom Power to talk about honouring their mom's legacy and finding healing through music.
