►Mark
Reeves
Manitoba, Canada
|
Like some kind of caffeinated single malt whiskey, Mark Reeves’ acoustic roots-rock goes down smooth and easy, but packs a powerful kick that can’t help but move you. From the infectious, jangly roots-pop anthem The Way to the playful lascivious title track, Mark’s album, Sure is a Pretty Name (2004) is a top-down, full throttle romp through twelve songs of hope, heartache, and gutsy good humour. His third solo record, this clearly his most mature, and none have come close to capturing the frenetic, vivacious rapture of a live Mark Reeves performance the way his new studio album does. |

With a number of East Coast Music Award nominations and an extensive discography, including: War Brides (2006), Lullaby for Barflies (2002), Trip Down Little Road (2001), and Barricade (2000), Curran knew it was finally time to make a record at home. |

Teitur Lassen is a singer/songwriter from the Faroe Islands who resides in the U.K. Teitur (pronounced "tie-tor") originally left the Faroe Islands for Copenhagen when he was 17 after fronting a pop/rock band. He set upon writing music full-time and eventually caught the attention of former BMI executive Christian Ulf-Hansen, who became his manager. Universal released his first album, Poetry & Aeroplanes, in 2003, while Teitur found himself opening for Suzanne Vega, Glen Phillips, Aimee Mann, and John Mayer as well as playing over 300 shows through the following year. "his graceful melancholia has a careworn heart, burdened by a lonesome youth spent conjuring the stories he tells on little known but wildly acclaimed albums" NME 8/10

Deciding to become a doctor didn’t dampen the music in Maria. She continued to sing at coffee houses and fundraisers. The intense human drama of medicine inspired so many songs that the pockets of her uniform scrubs would be full of new lyrics and melodies. London's Joelle Westman brings beautiful music to this already wonderful show... don't miss these 2 as they transform the Front Room on March 24th. |
