SUMMARY:The Magpies
DESCRIPTION:Transatlantic folk band The Magpies are quickly becoming one of the most exciting and innovative acts on the contemporary roots scene. Combining sublime harmonies with exquisite musicianship and impressive songwriting\, The Magpies traverse Anglo and American roots\, drawing inspiration from traditional Celtic folk\, bluegrass and Appalachian trails\, to create an effortless melting pot of music. \nAccomplished musicians in their own right\, founding members Bella Gaffney (award winning singer-songwriter\, guitarist and banjoist) and Holly Brandon (acclaimed fiddle player and tunesmith) perform alongside gifted singer-songwriter and guitarist Ellie Gowers. These talented young musicians work collaboratively to create their fresh brand of transatlantic folk and champion gender equality in the music industry\, with a fervent thread of feminism running through their music. \nIn their live performances\, The Magpies have been exceptionally well-received\, touring extensively throughout the UK\, with festival highlights including Glastonbury\, Cambridge\, Larmer Tree\, Shambala\, Towersey and Deer Shed and international performances in USA\, Canada\, Ireland\, Portugal and Luxembourg. Their live shows are known for their high energy and wry delivery\, transporting audiences to distant lands with ethereal voices and glistening instrumentals. \n\nWith more than a decade of making records and touring around the world behind them—as members of the award-winning group Còig—Rachel Davis & Darren McMullen now have their sights set on something new—Home. \nRecorded with award-winning songwriter\, musician\, and producer Dave Gunning\, Home is Rachel and Darren’s long-imagined\, and much-anticipated\, duo album. Highlighting the pair’s outstanding musicianship and vocals\, Home mixes traditional tunes and songs with original co-writes and signature classics. \nRachel and Darren are well-established and respected instrumentalists in the traditional music world and their playing on this album certainly lives up to that reputation. From the gentle but commanding riff that opens River and the Road\, written by Scottish songwriting royalty Archie Fisher\, to the unexpectedly bouncy breath of fresh air that is Laurence Gowan’s 1993 hit Dancing on My Own Ground\, to an old standby from their live sets\, We Remember You Well by their pal\, Cape Breton Music Hall of Fame writer Buddy MacDonald\, the songs on Home couldn’t be a better fit for Rachel and Darren’s voices and musical sensibilities. \nThe pair also wanted to do more songwriting for this album and they hit the jackpot with recording\, engineering\, and arranging collaborator Dave Gunning and acclaimed singer-songwriter Terra Spencer. Both Gunning and Spencer add harmony vocals to the songs they co-wrote\, with Gunning also playing a variety of instruments on the album. Other musical guests include Margie Beaton (piano)\, Thierry Clouette (bouzouki\, foot percussion)\, and Zakk Cormier (guitar\, foot percussion) taking turns on the tunes\, and English folk singer Jackie Oates who joins Rachel and Darren on harmony for the lovely Cornish folk song Sweet Nightingale\, which closes the album. \nListening to Rachel and Darren\, it’s obvious that they’ve been playing together for a while—not just as part of Còig\, but also as a duo\, as guests on each other’s records\, and as part of bigger stage productions and ensembles. There’s an easy way about them\, a sense of comfort that comes through in the music\, in the mix of their instruments\, the blending of their voices\, and how the arrangements leave room for each other. They seem to know just when to lay back and when it’s time to “give’er”.

SUMMARY:Brookside & Bowskill
DESCRIPTION:Brooks & Bowskill is the collaboration of Canadian wife-and-husband musicians Brittany Brooks and Jimmy Bowskill. Their genre-bending sound journeys between folk\, country-rock\, pop and rock and roll. \n​Jim Bowskill\, a multi-talented instrumentalist\, songwriter\, producer and recording engineer has established himself as one of the most profound musicians and music producers in the industry. He is a member of Canadian country-rock band Blue Rodeo\, as their multi-instrumentalist and previously spent 7 years as lead guitarist of Canadian rock band The Sheepdogs. \nSince the beginning of her musical career\, BrittanyBrooks has been a prolific songwriter\, singer and instrumentalist\, crafting lyrically evocative songs steeped in wisdom beyond her years. She has become notable for her unique and poignant vocal styling reminiscent of female folk-rock pioneers from the ‘60s like Sandy Denny\, Joni Mitchell and country artists like Emmylou Harris and Sylvia Tyson. In addition to releasing multiple solo albums\, Brooks has provided background vocals on records and in live performances for numerous bands including Blue Rodeo. \nTheir debut long-play album Too Many Roads (released Jan. 2023) gained critical acclaim for the couple’s versatile songwriting\, expert musicianship and undeniable chemistry as musical collaborators. A lot has changed since the debut record from the duo. First\, they got married\, making official the deep connection between the pair that was so clear in the songs of that first LP. They also moved their studio\, Ganaraska Recording Co\, from a former Ontario Hydro building in an industrial part of Cobourg\, Ontario to a nearly 200-year-old farmhouse in the Northumberland Hills. Lastly\, they introduced themselves and their songs to live audiences across southern Ontario. The shows garnered rave reviews from concert goers in small community halls\, downtown rock bars\, and stately\, storied theatres. Every stage\, no matter what size\, became a place for Brooks and Bowskill\, along with their band the Hometown Beauts\, to show their love for live performance\, for their new songs and treasured covers\, for their audience and for each other. \nNow Brooks and Bowskill present their second long playing album\, Blissful State of Mind\, a record of the last two years for the band. It is the sound of the marriage of two old souled songwriters\, merging their histories together and imbuing each other with confidence. It is the sound of the rolling hills north of Cobourg\, and an old farmhouse resurrected and filled with life again. It’s also the sound of a band of musicians who have played together long enough to be able to anticipate each other’s next moves. In sum\, Blissful State of Mind is the sound of a group at home\, for a moment\, in the moment.

SUMMARY:John Chiasson & Friends
DESCRIPTION:John Chaisson grew up in Antigonish\, and studied jazz at St. Francis Xavier University\, long before the singing jazz upright bass player Esperanza Spaulding came to prominence. Fans of John’s smooth baritone-plus-bass already had her Nova Scotia counterpoint. \nJohn has put true\, low notes behind PEI legend Lenny Gallant\, the stratospheric pipes of The Rankins\, and beneath the fretless lilt of Natalie McMaster’s fiddle. For Natalie\, John has been a music director\, that is to say\, her band-leader and arranger\, the person who runs rehearsals. \nNow based in Halifax\, John’s trio plays for special events and regularly at Baton Rouge and many other venues across Nova Scotia; John and trio also provided expert framing for young phenoms like saxophonist Rob Crowell. \nJohn admits that inspiration is a deep well – for him it starts with music in the house\, played and encouraged by his parents\, then with the arrival of a lead-singing bass player\, Paul McCartney. John also mentions McCartney’s apparent opposite in ’60s music – the iconoclast composer\, singer and bassist Charles Mingus\, himself known for heart-rending chord changes\, like those in Goodbye Pork Pie Hat. \nJohn’s signature instrument is an unusual solid-body upright bass\, nothing McCartney or Mingus could have had\, in the day. This bass sounds sweet\, and repels the Maritimes’ dry and damp spells with warmth.
