Psych/Doom/Stoner Rockers Cannabus Drops Groovy New Single “In The Pocket” from their upcoming album "Ride the Bus"


Ontario-based band Cannabus is back with a fresh release, unveiling their latest single, “In The Pocket”. Recorded in April 2025 with Z Hollow Studios, the track captures a moment in time for the band, tracked at their former practice space in St. Catharine’s, a location that helped shape their evolving sound.

“In The Pocket” is all about feel. Rooted in the idea of locking into life’s rhythm, the song explores finding those elusive “sweet spots”, the moments where everything clicks, and learning to enjoy the ride while you’re there. With a laid-back groove, the single reflects both a sense of lived-in authenticity and the band’s musical chemistry.

Along with the single, Cannabus has released a live music video from their single release show at the Black Throne Label Night at Doors Pub in Hamilton Ontario on March 20. The single is the second from their upcoming debut album titled “Ride the Bus”which is due for digital and vinyl release on July 3, 2026 through Black Throne Productions and Kozmik Artifactz.

“In the Pocket” Official Video Stream


“Ride the Bus” follows in the footsteps of their previous EP releases such as “The Maple Spliff Sessions” from April 20, 2023 and “Other Side” from April 19, 2024 and places heavy emphasis on authentic 70s-inspired, fuzzed out blues and high-energy psychoactive guitar solos.

The live video and audio was chosen to accompany the release as it highlights the raw authenticity and live quality which the band is known for in their home province of Ontario. “In the Pocket” is the second single from the record, with the first single “Far Gone Blues” and it’s music video releasing back in December of 2025
