About the show:
Wild Honey is an all-female roots trio based in the East Kootenay region of spectacular British Columbia. The band of busy mothers has been together for a decade, and has just released their second album, an EP titled ‘Let’s Be Cowboys’. Recorded and produced by Canadian music legend Barney Bentall, the songs are compiled and delivered with gentle grace. Always inspired by their mountain towns and love of the outdoors, Shelby, Jessica, and Laura were searching for a sound that celebrated these passions. The album is a love letter to their daughters – 8 in total – celebrating their unique strengths and ability to shatter the stereotypical female roles expected of them. The honest, fragile lyrics in songs like ‘Let it Roll’ and ‘Caged Bird’ tenderly highlight the mental health crisis faced by so many after the isolation of the pandemic. ‘Fly Angel’ is a bold and cheeky answer to John Prine’s classic ‘Angel from Montgomery’. Overall, the album is a musical promise to hold on - hope is not lost. To quote from track 3, ‘Let it Roll’, “The sun will rise, and time will heal your soul.”
Opener:
Tenise Marie is a singer-songwriter who has emerged from the mystical forests of Argenta, BC. On a foundation of acoustic guitar and soulful vocals, she builds her songs with vision and care, singing “tenderly of love’s vagaries without lapsing into maudlin or cliché" (Jamie Bliss, Kootenay Mountain Culture Magazine). A storyteller and traveler at heart, her adventures climbing mountains, riding waves, and watching sunrises soak into her enticing melodies and vulnerable lyrics. Her debut single "10 Out of 10” is a coming of age story, offering "gently strummed chords, jazzy folk-pop ambience and sublime musicianship” (Darryl Sterdan, The Tinnitist, 2020). Tenise has freshly released “Give Me a Chance”, the first single from her new album “Storm”.
With Special Guest: Ryland Moranz
“I’ve seen for miles before my time / Years before I was born, and years after I’ll die”
If you look carefully enough, via clues like this lyric from Run Rabbit Run, the underlying thread running through the rustic alt. country and poignant folk songs of RYLAND MORANZ will reveal itself as the passage of time.
Populated by real and imagined heroes and villains, the everyday and the extraordinary, the trials of life and matters of the heart, Ryland’s compositions span bygone days, the here and now, and what may yet be to come, both for himself and for us all.
