The Brock Press

The Brock Press is Brock University’s independent student newspaper in St. Catharines, with current music reviews and an explicit focus on the Brock and Niagara communities.

The Brock Press is an independent, student-run newspaper covering Brock University and the Niagara Region from St. Catharines. The outlet says it was founded in 1964, is run exclusively by Brock students and has operated as a worker cooperative since 2023. Its current sections cover news, features, sports, arts, opinion and video. A March 1, 2026 music article reviews new singles by Noah Kahan and corook and discusses their releases, songwriting, themes, production and music-industry context; the Arts editor’s first-party biography also describes an ongoing focus on emerging artists, album analysis and concert reviews. The Get Involved page invites Brock students to write volunteer articles and asks the Brock community for story tips. Because that page does not explicitly invite artists or organizations to pitch releases for music coverage, it is not represented as a current artist music-submission route. Named staff addresses and other personal contact details are excluded.
