From “Alps next to Geneva”, Rhône-Alpes, France, “The Spring Folk Orchestra” are
Musicians from different generations but with common musical influences that
narrate, through music, the story of their times. They are an acoustic folk group
with no concession or compromise, and are sober and deservingas tradition calls for. Their music flows like a
breath of fresh air to carry the listener off into a world where music ushers
in an atmosphere of sanity away from agitation and noise…
The SPRING
FOLK ORCHESTRA started in the spring of 2006 and have evolved over time into
the exceptional band we hear today.
Music
Releases:
In the fall
of 2013, the “Spring Folk Orchestra” began work in their home studio on a 9
song album titled “Nine Songs” and released it in February 2014 on Bandcamp
which gained them recognition in music circles for their catchy folk and bluesy
country sounds.
Riding the
positive energy from “Nine Songs” the group then quickly followed up their
album with a 3 song EP titled “Enter the Road”, which further demonstrated
their broad and diverse influences from the earlier folk rock era’s of the late
60’s and early 70’s…but with a lyrical twist of today’s reality.
Sincere and
honest, the “Spring Folk Orchestra” combines their own style with a reflection
of influences from many artists of the past including such notables as Kerouac,
Jerehmia Johnson, Corso, Bob Dylan, Neil Young, America, Crosby Stills and Nash
to Van Morrisson, via Hank Williams, Merle Travis, the Statler Brothers,
Leadbelly and the rockabilly pioneers, from Elvis to Johnny Cash.
“The Spring Folk Orchestra are worthy artists of the folk music genre that continue the journey
passed on by artists of the past to move this great music genre into the
future. Very enjoyable music indeed.” ~ Stewart Brennan, World United Music
J.P.
Cormier appears from the shadows at the side of the stage—an unsmiling mountain
of a man in dark glasses—and stalks almost angrily to his seat in the
spotlight. He picks up his instrument, adjusts his mic stand and asks the
audience: “How’re ya now?” in a rumbling baritone.
Then he
starts to tell his story.
His lyrics
and melodies illicit every emotion you can muster as he paints picture after
picture of loves lost, towns disbanded, fishermen killed by their trade and the
most important moments of his own life. His voice is surprisingly sweet and
soft-sounding, completely unexpected coming from his 6’4” frame.
He begins
an instrumental on one of the five or six instruments he may have on stage with
him and you realize that this man is not just a singer or a songwriter. As his
fingers fly, with such speed and precision, upon each instrument in turn, you
get another picture—one of pure joy and boundless energy; total spiritual
abandon bordering in its execution on genius. It’s a word that is used to
describe him again and again.
Then just
as you think you’ve seen everything, he begins to speak to the audience. He’s
more comfortable now. He’s getting over the shyness he feels when meeting new
people. Now he feels he can connect safely. Opening up with a few one-liners,
he moves on to amusing anecdotes and true tales from his own past. Some bring a
roar of laughter from the audience that can be heard outside the theatre,
others bring a tear to the eye. He’s home now, his banter is easy as he draws
the crowd into each song and tune. The connection is complete and he is one
with his audience. Even behind his dark glasses, you can tell that he too sheds
a tear when his audience does.
J.P. has a
profound effect on audiences, but those who know him know his heart far exceeds
his stature. His acts of random kindness in and out of the music industry are
legendary. There are many stories of the “big fella” going to play for someone
on their deathbed, helping fledgling artists, or generally standing up for
people who couldn’t do it for themselves. He spent two weeks in the theatre of
war entertaining the NATO troops in Afghanistan and is always quick to do what
he can for a good cause. Maritime artists like Dave Gunning, Darren McMullen,
Douglas Cameron and many others have benefited from J.P.’s assistance and
patient guidance. His charity work is endless, once raising 4 tons of food for
Feed Nova Scotia. A man well aware of the plight of the needy, he celebrates
his birthday each year with a fundraising concert for Christmas Daddies in Cape
Breton.
Accolades
for J.P. have come from far and near over the years. He’s been described as
“the quintessential Maritime musician” and having “the ability to make the
brilliant appear effortless”. His early years playing in Nashville and the
southern states have earned him high praise from folks like long time pickin’
partner and collaborator Marty Stuart, who says, “He’s just incredible, one of
the best players I’ve ever seen.” Country music legend Waylon Jennings has
said, “I would be proud to share the stage with this man anywhere, anytime”,
and J.P.’s greatest hero, Chet Atkins has honoured him as “…one of the most
important guitarists of his generation.” Closer to home, former Governor
General of Canada, Adrienne Clarkson proclaimed, “What you have to say as an
artist is incredibly important and a treasure to our Nation” and Gordon
Lightfoot reveals, “I have a great deal of respect for Mr. Cormier.”
J.P. takes
it all in stride.
He still
has his ritual three beers before the show, and prefers to be outside the venue
where he can smoke and talk to folks as they enter. He’s either there or
hanging out backstage with the fans and fellow musicians who show up and don’t
feel there’s any reason why they can’t go right back stage and see him. There
are no real walls around J.P. and he likes it that way. This may be why he’s
stayed so far from the mainstream. He never wanted the barriers that great fame
brings between an artist and their audience. The people who listen to J.P.’s
music are his lifeline and his inspiration. One man’s simple story might
inspire the next great J.P. song. Another’s may be about someone whose life has
been changed by something that he wrote or played. He likes to hear about these
things first-hand. But if the compliments get too heavy, he’ll just look
uncomfortably at the ground and say, “I didn’t write nothin’, I just held the
pen.”
With all of
that said though, his modesty belies a long list of accomplishments. J.P.’s
impressive body of work has earned him a vast and loyal fan base around the
world and he has played extensively throughout Canada, Great Britain, Europe,
and the USA. His songs have been number 1 hits on American and European radio
and he’s won 12 East Coast Music Awards, 5 Music Nova Scotia Awards, and a
Canadian Folk Music Award. His album, Another Morning, was nominated for a Juno in 1998 and has since sold nearly 100,000
copies. Performing countless times on television and radio, J.P. released 13 solo
albums since 1995 and won more than 30 awards in 20 years of fiddle, guitar,
banjo, and song-writing competitions.
In the 30
years since he made his first paycheck at a “Union” gig, going professional at
the tender age of 13, he’s traveled hundreds of thousands of miles spending
months at a time on the road. It’s no wonder he looks a little tired sometimes!
No matter
what you call him–genius, recluse, friend, foe, outgoing, unapproachable,
giving, kind, or thoughtful–there is so much more beneath the surface.
Celebrated as a singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, producer, recording
artist, teacher, collaborator, innovator, and award winner, J.P. Cormier’s
talent is comparable to none. He’s praised in superlatives, but even these
don’t do the man justice. The best way to get to know J.P. is to listen to his
music. That is where his real heart lies. It is a world where everything is
done fairly, no one wants, and there are no broken hearts allowed. In his song
“The Messenger” he speaks not from himself but something much greater when he
says:
“I am just
the Messenger
I speak to every man
Every woman, every child
Who lives upon the land
My face is often hidden
Many do not wish to see
But when you’re in the mirror
Sometimes you look at me.”
J.P.
Cormier is not to be missed. Stuff this good only comes around so often

Billy Manzik's
musical journey began where Highway 61 ends - in Thunder Bay, Ontario. The
soundtrack for his upbringing was provided by his guitar slinging, country
singing mother, and influenced by any music he could find, not to mention
Billy's penchant for wandering the world. The result is a driving roots rock
sound, complete with catchy riffs, lyrical hooks and a 'feel-good' toe tapping
kind of style.
Billy's new
release ‘AllTogetherNow’ packages this sound into one beautiful and diverse
album, sure to catch the ear of any who hears it. From the anthemic, uptempo
lead track 'On A Road' and the sweet harmonies of 'Hannah', to the wailin'
bluesy rock of '61 Highway' and the summertime pop sounds of 'Has Been',
'AllTogetherNow' combines musical ingredients so well, it puts the icing on the
rock n' roll cake. Recorded at Orange Lounge Studios and Knob and Tube Studios
in Toronto and produced by Chris Wardman (The Watchmen, Randy Bachman) with
help from David Gavan Baxter (Justin Rutledge), 'Alltogethernow' is music for
modern times.
In addition to
Billy on vocals and guitar, the album showcases the talents of many well-known
Canadian musicians, Geoff Hilhorst (Deep Dark Woods) on keys, Erik Allen (Jenny
Whiteley) on drums, Mike Filipowitsch on guitar and Jonny Kerr on bass, plus
appearances from many others. Penguin Eggs, Canada's Folk, Roots & World
Music Magazine, describes the album as "a powerful roots-rock assault that
hits every pop nerve you've ever pumped with proteins." (Eric Thom)
Billy Manzik's music career debuted in Alberta in 2007 with his self-titled
release. Recorded at Calgary's Rocky Mountain Studios by producer Rob Smith
with Daniel J. Coe (Aerosmith, The Trews), the album featured musical
contributions from Canadian roots music greats Tim Williams, Charlie Hase and
Bill Zulak (Crash Test Dummies).
"Billy
Manzik" received critical acclaim, charting on several !earshot charts and
being featured on CBC's Key of A. In 2008 Billy showcased at the annual Alberta
Sessions (Alberta Music Series), broadcast on CBC's Radio 2, and kicked off the
2008 Juno Awards with a spirited performance at the annual Juno Welcome
Reception.
In recent years
Billy has played with or opened for such luminaries as Blue Rodeo, Elliott
Brood, The Trews, Todd Snider, Colin James, The Wailin' Jennys, Gordie Johnson
(Big Sugar), Cara Luft, among many others.
"Billy Manzik has been a great addition to the Live From the Rock Folk
Festival. In addition to being a fine musician he is also a wonderful festival
performer...he tells the story behind the song and has a sensibility which
enables him to pick the right song for the time and place." ~ Liz
Harvey-Foulds, Live From the Rock Folk Festival
"Billy Manzik is a great songwriter, right up there with Steve Earle and
Ryan Adams." ~ Michael Murphy, Supervisor, Capitol Mastering
"When I hear Billy play, I want to jump on stage and sing along! Great
toe-tappin' music." ~ Cara Luft, Singer/Songwriter (formerly of the Wailin
Jenny's)
Tiller’s
Folly is the preeminent Canadian based award winning Americana/Folk/Celtic
group at the forefront of a bold new movement in acoustic roots music. For the
past sixteen years, through 1,000's of performances stretching from the Pacific
Northwest to the British Isles, they have spread their memorable blend of
energy, history, musicality, romance and just plain fun from small and large
halls to televison, radio, theatres and festivals.
Hailed by critics (“Tiller’s Folly is a national treasure”. – Peter North,
Edmonton Journal), their words and melodies are at once populist, minimally
produced and poignant while at the same time singularly powerful and sincere.
With eight studio CD's to the bands credit, Tiller's award winning productions
continue to expand and refine their potent mix of acoustic & electric
based, Celtic influenced Canadiana, Americana, Newgrass 'and beyond.'
In 2008, Tiller's Folly introduced a multimedia component to their show
including both modern and archival film footage and photography, adding sharp,
captivating visual images and film designed to provide a whole new depth of
understanding and enjoyment to an already impressive stage show. As a result,
this is a show that the audience will carry with them long after the final note
has played.
Fueled by their unfailing passion and enthusiasm for the music, Tiller’s is
continuingly experimenting with different phrasing, tones and textures while
recording with some of the most exciting and innovative musicians and singers
in the business today as they continue to evolve as artists. Names like the
phenomenally talented front man of the iconic group NewGrass Revival, John
Cowan to Bob Babbitt (most famous for his work as a member of Motown Records
studio band, the Funk Brothers, from 1966–1972, as well as his tenure as part
of MFSB for Philadelphia International Records) and the late legendary session
keyboardist Larry Knechtel have moved Tiller’s music to a new level of mastery.
Now, in 2012 they have just completed their new project that marks a fresh, new
direction for the band and unleashes the writing and acoustic performance
prowess of this band. In addition to current members Bruce Coughlan, Nolan
Murray and Laurence Knight they will again showcase the vocals prowess of the
masterful John Cowan (Doobie Brothers/John Cowan Band), as well as introducing
new musical collaborators like Josh Shilling (Mountain Heart) and Cia
Cherryholmes (The Cherryholmes), Ronnie McCoury (Del McCoury Band/Travelin
McCoury's), Sam Bush (NewGrass Revival founder/Sam Bush Band) and successful
producer/writer/vocalist Wendy Waldman along with the legendary Scottish Music
Hall of Famer Phil Cunningham on accordion. Rounding out the musical guests on
the album will be Grammy winning "in-demand" producer/session man
Randy Kohrs (Dolly Parton/John Cowan Band/Jim Lauderdale), guitarist Jeff Autry
(John Cowan Band) and banjo great Scott Vestal (John Cowan Band/Sam Bush Band).
The band
received critical praise and world-wide recognition when in the summer of 2012
they earned the high honor of winning the 11th Annual Independent Music Awards
Vox Pop Poll for their song "Death & Taxes" from their new album,
"Go The Road". The song, penned by Tillers prolific lead
singer/principal songwriter Bruce Coughlan, was named Top Song in the
"Social Action" category. This award was voted on by more than 60,000
music fans from around the globe, marking a turning point for this fabulous
band.
With their new self-penned songs, new musical studio partnerships and an
inexhaustible collaborative spirit, Tiller’s Folly is poised to breakthrough to
the next level in 2012 and beyond.
Mountain
Heart is the band that has been fearlessly revolutionizing the way acoustic
music can be presented and played. The band's name has been synonymous with
cutting-edge excellence in acoustic music circles since the group's creation in
1999. Widely known throughout the music industry for continually redefining the
boundaries of acoustic music, the band has gained legions of loyal fans both as
a result of their superlative musicianship, and more notably, their
incomparably exciting live performances.
As one of the most highly awarded ensembles ever assembled, Mountain Heart, or
members of the band, have either won or been nominated for Grammy’s, ACM, CMA,
and multiple IBMA Awards. They have appeared on the revered stage of the Grand
Ole Opry in excess of 125 times and have shared the stage with acts ranging
from Lynyrd Skynyrd, Montgomery Gentry, Merle Haggard, George Jones and Brad
Paisley to Alison Krauss, Tony Rice, The Avett Brothers, Yonder Mountain
Stringband, Levon Helm, John Fogerty and Patty Loveless.
Mountain Heart's musical virtuosity, unmatched energy, and keen sense of
entertainment dynamics have helped them to forge a highly unique sound, and
stage show, which appeals to an incredibly wide variety of musical tastes. From
large outdoor folk music and bluegrass festivals, to sold-out arena shows
opening for Southern Rock icons, Lynyrd Skynyrd, to co-headlining concerts with
the acoustic guitar legend, Tony Rice, Mountain Heart always makes an
undeniable connection to an audience, leaving them on their feet. In short,
this rare combination of abilities makes Mountain Heart one of the most
versatile acts ever assembled.
This year will see Mountain Heart booked to play some of the most prestigious
outdoor multi-genre festivals in the nation as well as theaters and clubs as
they tour in support of their 7’th album, “That Just Happened”, which was
released in late 2010 on their own imprint, MH Music Group.
Defying
description, but easily accessible. Incredibly deep, but dangerously shallow.
In many publications and reviews the word "unique" appears, but is
not necessarily their definition of unique.
Lyrical stories
infused with thick dark E.V.P's trapped within a music that is heavy, but not
in the conventional sense of the word. Possessed mainstay members MUSHAGA, and
GWAMBA are sometimes visited by wood toting ghosts, but more times than not a
programmable humanoid that go's by the name "machine".
When probed as to
what category they fall into their response is sharp, and direct, "DON'T
LABEL US, WERE NOT DONE YET"! Gwamba and Mushaga feel much more akin to
the savageries and modern day hobo proclivity of the road as apposed to the
safe confines of a normal stay at home robot glass tit lifestyle. Using both
outdated infinite trigabyte computer systems, and modern day magnetic tape on
head analog sound capturing techniques, their available to the public craft-work
catalog is vast, yet compatible to any in the moment ear, or searching for
yesteryear soul. Staying true to the teachings of their larger than life, but
incredibly humble mentors,"BRACK", and "EMERIL" united as
one shooting the fig to anyone or anything that may unsuccessfully attempt road
blocking there destiny, Gwamba: The band is forever on the verge of a bro-down
with every, and all life forms, for music truly is, their medication! ~ Dell
Tearcut, New York Tribune
It may come as a
surprise to hear the foot-stomping strains of Appalachian bluegrass channeled
through a rock band here in Los Angeles, but heartache, loss and regret have
always been the cornerstones of great music and this city has its share. In a
town better known for porn stars and face lifts, anything as authentic and
heartfelt as Rose's Pawn Shop, is a pleasant surprise.
Singer-songwriter Paul Givant grew up on the
disparate array of popular musical styles any late 20th century kid did. And in
that mishmash of rock, punk, country, pop, rap, and all the rest, it was
American Folk and Bluegrass music that rooted deepest in Paul, transforming him
and his songs. Having played in various rock bands since early high school, in
2004 Paul decided it was time to take his growing batch of old style/new school
folk songs, and build them into something greater, more ferocious. The songs
were there, volatile, almost flammable, but if they were to attain their
potential greatness, he was going to need help.
As so many fortuned events unfold, it was through a
series of chance meetings, twists of fate, and Craig's List, that Paul met
kindred spirits in Sebastian St. John, Derek O'Brien, Bill Clark, Derek
Swenson, and John Kraus. And in 2005 they began building the music and the band
that would soon be known as Rose's Pawn Shop. This group of young musicians
combined in their collective musical melting pot the old style American sounds
of Woody Guthrie, Bill Monroe, and Hank Williams, the high energy punk of The
Ramones, and The Pogues, and the melodic songwriting sensibilities of Elliott
Smith and The Beatles. They were creating something musically unique and yet
imbued with a familiarity and accessibility.
The final ingredient was added one fateful day when
Paul's scorned ex-girlfriend/former band mate in an act of revenge stole the
band's instruments and gear and took them down to the local pawn shop.
Priceless. Rose's Pawn Shop was born... The match was lit.
In spring of 2006 after months of playing live and
breaking ground around Los Angeles, the band recorded and released their debut
album "The Arsonist". The album quickly began receiving critical
praise from print and online publications as varied as "About.com",
"The Daily News", "Miles of Music", and "Music
Connection". A month after its release, Rose's Pawn Shop showcased and won
the grand prize in Billboard Magazine and Discmaker's: Independent Music World
Series. And in the summer of that year, the members of Rose's Pawn Shop dared
to quit their day jobs and hit the road, and what had started as a slow and
steady burn, began spreading like wildfire.
They have been touring the United States nearly
non-stop ever since. On any given day you might find Rose's Pawn Shop playing
the Georgia Theatre in Athens, busking the streets of Jackson Square in New
Orleans, opening for Jack White and The Raconteurs at the Henry Fonda Theatre
in Los Angeles, ripping the walls off the club in their month long residency at
the Parkside Lounge in New York City, or hitting the main stage of Floydfest in
Virginia. On any given day they're out there, growing their music, igniting
their passion, and converting an ever increasing congregation of loyal fans.
In early 2010, Rose's Pawn Shop entered the studio
with renowned producer Ethan Allen (Patty Griffin, Better Than Ezra, Counting
Crows, Luscious Jackson, The 88, Gram Rabbit) to record the second album,
"Dancing On the Gallows." In recording the new record, Rose's Pawn
Shop found themselves rising to new level song craft and sound experimentation,
while retaining the same fiery intensity and excitement of their early
material. The highly anticipated album is slated for an early August 2010
release.
What do they sound like, you ask?
With an arsenal of banjos, guitars, mandolin, fiddle,
pedal steel, upright bass, and thundering drums, their sound is a wholesome
mishmash of creek mud, rusty nails and your mom's cookin'. It's sincere,
straight-forward and sexy as fuck, effortlessly combining such disparate
musical styles as rock, country, bluegrass, and punk to create an
incomprehensibly smooth and accessible sound for true believers and skeptics
alike.
With wisdom beyond their years, they fearlessly
confront traditional country music themes of loss, lamentation, and redemption,
while throwing in some drinking-songs for good measure. Sure, they're borrowing
pages from the books of Hank Williams, Bill Monroe, and Johnny Cash, but Rose's
Pawn Shop takes those pages, tears them up and sets them on fire with breakneck
speed, bluegrass instrumentation, 3- and 4- part vocal harmonies and lyrics
that'll break your heart.
Whether it's the dreamy snake-charm-thump of
"Lone Rider," the wistful whisky-soaked wisdom of "Down The Line,"
the honky-tonk ruckus of "Funeral Pyre," or the Gypsy-infused
mandolin twang of "Reckoning," Rose's Pawn Shop will hook you. Like
catfish from the creek, they'll reel you in. And they won't let you go.
And you'll be glad they did.
Because something happens when you hear these songs.
No matter how low you've sunk, something in the music finds you. It picks you
up and carries you home.

Old Crow Medicine
Show got its' start busking on street corners in New York state and up through
Canada, winning audiences along the way with their boundless energy and spirit.
They eventually found themselves in Boone, North Carolina where they caught the
attention of folk icon Doc Watson while playing in front of a pharmacy. He
immediately invited the band to play at his MerleFest, helping to launch their
career. Shortly thereafter the band relocated to Nashville for a residency at
the Grand Ole Opry, where they entertained the crowd between shows.
It's been nearly
fifteen years since these humble beginnings, and the band has gone on to tour
the world, sell over 800,000 albums, become frequent guests on A Prairie Home Companion, and play renowned festivals like
Bonnaroo, Coachella, and the Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival. In May of 2013
Old Crow's classic single, "Wagon Wheel", received the RIAA's
Platinum certification for selling over 1,000,000 copies.
In 2011 Old Crow
found themselves embarking on the historic Railroad Revival Tour with Mumford
and Sons, and Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros. This tour had the bands
riding a vintage train from California to New Orleans, playing shows along the
way. The magic of this musical excursion across America's vast landscape is
captured in the Emmet Malloy directed documentary, Big Easy Express. In 2013 Old Crow Medicine Show, along
with Mumford & Sons and Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros, won the
Grammy Award for "Best Long Form Music Video" for the film.
Old Crow Medicine
Show now have four studio albums to their name, three of which were released by
Nettwerk Records - O.C.M.S and Big IronWorld produced by David Rawlings, and Tennessee Pusher produced by Don Was. On their newest album, Carry Me Back, Old Crow continue to craft classic
American roots music while pushing themselves in new directions. Carry Me Back, released by ATO Records and produced by
Ted Hutt, represents a new stretch of road in the timeless journey of a
rambling string band.
