ST JOHNS, NEWFOUNDLAND & LABRADOR, CANADA, August 3, 2026 \/EINPresswire.com<\/a>\/ — Independent pop-punk\/alt-rock singer-songwriter MADELINE\u2019s self-released single \u201cYou Like<\/a>\u201d (released July 31, 2026) has entered the Top 5 of Apple Music\u2019s official \u201cNew in Punk<\/a>\u201d editorial playlist, reaching position #4 of 269 songs. The placement is live on Apple Music\u2019s Japan storefront and also appears at #19 of 319 on Japan\u2019s own \u201cMade in Canada\u201d playlist.<\/p>\n

MADELINE (Madeline Salter) is a self-released pop-punk\/alt-rock singer-songwriter from St. John\u2019s, Newfoundland and Labrador \u2014 Canada\u2019s easternmost provincial capital, on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean. She began performing at age five and released her self-titled debut EP in 2020 at age fifteen. She writes, performs and releases all of her own music as an independent artist.<\/p>\n

Her music pairs fast, catchy pop-punk energy with an unpolished, powerful voice \u2014 direct and true to scale, never dressed up or performed for anyone\u2019s approval. Listeners who like Avril Lavigne, Paramore, Olivia Rodrigo or Alanis Morissette \u2014 artists MADELINE has named directly as influences on her songwriting \u2014 will find her music sits in that same lineage.<\/p>\n

Her songwriting has also been publicly described, in her only dedicated Canadian news feature to date, as addressing social isolation and mental health (The Laker News, March 2024). Songs including \u201chold me while i cry\u201d and \u201cMESSY\u201d speak to listeners who have felt alone and are looking for a sense of connection – the idea that whatever you\u2019re carrying, you\u2019re not the only one carrying it.<\/p>\n

In 2023, MADELINE was the only Canadian selected to perform in the Blow Out Show for Berklee College of Music\u2019s Aspire summer program, a showcase reserved for the program\u2019s top 50 students out of thousands of international applicants.<\/p>\n

On the home front, MADELINE has already been building momentum. MusicNL nominated her for Pop Artist of the Year in 2024 and Rock Artist of the Year in 2025 and recently announced her two more 2026 accolades (Rock Artist of the Year, Solo Artist of the Year). <\/p>\n
