About: Bill Bourne
'Canadian Folk
Shaman - Magical Mystery Bourne' - Kitchener/Waterloo Echo
"Bourne
flows with this almost indescribable soul infused with a lonesome strain of
blues... This man was put on this earth to play music." - Crossroads
Magazine - Tuscon, AZ
Bill was raised
in a musical family in rural Alberta. When he was 2 years old, he was known to
sleep behind the piano at country dances. His parents played dance music in
community halls in beautiful farming country. The love of nature and of music
and of people gathering for celebration has been with him for his whole life.
Bill loves to
collaborate with friends (musicians). His most recent collaboration is with
Jasmine Ohlhauser and Wyckham Porteous in the band “Bop Ensemble”. Previous to
bop ensemble, Bill collaborated with Eivør Pálsdóttir from the Faroe Islands.
He produced and performed on Eivør's third solo CD, 'eivør'. The recording won
double at the Danish Music Awards Folk in 2006. Other collaborations: with Alan
MacLeod, Shannon Johnson, Hans Staymer and Andreas Schuld, and Lester Quitzau
& Madagascar Slim, as well as his solo projects, have all attained award
status in Canada.
A multiple
Canadian Juno Award winner, Bill has received international acclaim for his
recordings and live performances. A mainstay on the international roots scene,
life on the road is reflected in Bill's music - powerful rhythms and soulful
songs, steeped in World Beat, Blues, Cajun, Celtic, Folk, Flamenco, Funk,
Poetry and more... - Beach House

"Music is a
dance; a happy heart. Music is the great teacher. The life in Music is its
power of transcendence: Music is a healing force that benefits all living
things."

"Never
have I heard an Artist blow a Genre of music out of the water
quite like Bill Bourne has with his 2011 album Bluesland. Bill has
mastered the blues from delta to boogie woogie and does it with such ease.
Bluesland is pure gold and should please every Blues fan." ~ Stewart Brennan ~ World United
