Blinker the Star is a Canadian indie rock band, originally from Pembroke, Ontario. After their first release, they moved to Montreal. Although the band have never achieved mainstream success, band leader Jordon Zadorozny is known for having cowritten songs with Courtney Love.

On the strength of their self-titled independent debut in 1993, the band released two albums on major labels in the United States, and was widely promoted as a potential "next big thing" in alternative rock. However, the genre's commercial appeal was already beginning to fade when the band's major label debut, A Bourgeois Kitten, was released in 1996. Consequently, commercial success never materialized for the band, and after being dropped from DreamWorks, the band re-emerged in 2003 with Still in Rome.
