They also opened for Bombay Bicycle Club on their So Long, See You Tomorrow tour.[5]

On 2 February 2013 Royal Canoe performed Beck's Song Reader project in full at the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra's New Music Festival.[6][7] (Beck released Song Reader on sheet music without a recorded version.)

In 2016, keyboardist Matthew Schellenberg composed, performed and produced songs for the soundtrack to the film Lovesick.[8] At the 5th Canadian Screen Awards in 2017, he received a nomination for Best Original Song for "Draw Blood".[9][10]
