dmonton, AB based singer-songwriter Colleen Brown re-released her album
Foot In Heart with Emm Gryner’s Dead Daisy Records & Outside Music
on March 16, 2010 and is steadily gaining career momentum and
recognition.
Recipient of the Alberta Emerging Artist Award and
finalist in last year’s CBC Song Quest, multi- instrumentalist Brown has
been called "a national treasure in the making - along the lines of Joni Mitchell, Anne Murray, Gordon Lightfoot or K.D.Lang." (Sandra Sperounes of The Edmonton Journal)
Since
she first self-released Foot In Heart in 2008, she’s enjoyed dedicated
radio play on CBC, CKUA and college stations across the country and
placement in a CBC Radio 2 TV commercial. Most notably, Brown’s songs
have been featured in regular airplay on Rich Terfry’s Radio 2 program
‘Drive’. "[The album] sounds like some of the best music you heard on
pop-radio back in the '70s...I love this album," says Terfry (aka Buck
65). That musician, MC and radio host was so enamoured with Colleen’s
music he has invited her into the studio along with another
self-professed fan, Hawksley Workman, to co-write and sing in an
experimental studio-based writing project. Brown is also currently
recording her third solo studio album, featuring a song co-written with
Pierre Marchand (most notably longtime Producer/Co-writer for Sarah
MacLachlan.)
To date, Colleen Brown - both solo, and as part of
her side projects ‘The Secretaries’ and ‘The Kit Kat Club’ - has
performed more than 300 shows, (including this year’s Edmonton Folk
Fest) sharing stages with a broad range of artists across Canada
including Jim Cuddy, Hawksley Workman, Kathleen Edwards, Frank Black,
Gogol Bordello, Hey Rosetta, Dan Mangan, Danny Michel, Hannah Georgas,
and Fred Eaglesmith. She also toured across Canada this October with
Canadian folk/rock icons Crash Test Dummies.
Following a recent
show where Brown supported Frank Black, SEE Magazine’s Fish Griwkowsky
said, "Colleen Brown played the show of her life, opening up. There is a
confidence about her new songs that’s actually scary, savaging the
things we men do with a sarcastic lilt and an eager smile for the next
round of battle." Colleen was also chosen by popular online music site
NXEW as the ‘big find’ of the 2010 NXNE Festival; and her composition
Western Fire was one of the winning entries in the All Albertan Song
Contest.
