Recent winners of the 2010 Juno for Roots Album of the Year and of the 2009 New Emerging Artist Award from the Canadian Folk Music Awards- the Good Lovelies are making waves across Canada.
The Good Lovelies are Caroline Brooks, Kerri Ough and Sue Passmore. Described as folk-roots and western swing, the Toronto-based trio combine three-part vocal harmonies with clever songs and funny onstage repartee.
The Good Lovelies played their first show in December of 2006. Since then, they have quit their jobs, toured coast to coast numerous times, played countless house concerts, festivals, folk clubs and coffee houses, and released three albums.
The first album, released in 2007, is a five-track EP, called "Oh My!" and features the playful single "Taboo." In January 2009, the Good Lovelies released their first full-length self-titled CD which contains 11 finely-crafted original songs. The album borrows styles from bygone eras and features CBC Radio favourite, Sleepwalkin’.
In November 2009, the Lovelies released a twelve-track Christmas album "Under The Mistletoe" which includes three original Christmas songs as well as a number of old classics. The album was met with positive reviews in The Globe & Mail and Toronto's NOW Magazine.
To boot, the Good Lovelies just finished touring with the Vinyl Cafe in March 2010 and can be heard singing backup on Jill Barber's album "Chances."
Apart from spreading sharp, light-hearted music coast to coast the Good Lovelies will appear on CBC Kids TV in 2010 with Canada’s favourite puppet Mamma Yamma and will appear on PBS Special "Girls from the North Country" alongside Dala and Oh Susanna!
Meanwhile, the Good Lovelies are working on their second full-length release that fans can expect within a year.
And beyond that? Well, there’s a huge country south of Canada that could use some laughter and another dose of hopeful goodwill from their neighbours, and the Lovelies are just the women to provide it.
