Jenn Grant www.jenngrant.com/about/

The honeymoon continues for East Coast nightingale Jenn Grant, who is set to release her third album on Six Shooter Records on September 25, 2012. With The Beautiful Wild, Jenn follows love’s twisted, tangled path deep into the heart’s jungle. The new record is about finding the courage to lose oneself in the wilderness, in all of its savage and sublime experiences.
The dense, exotic sounds of The Beautiful Wild depart from the giddy blush of Honeymoon Punch, Jenn Grant’s Juno Nominated and Polaris Long Listed previous album. There is a mature solemnity to be found that creates a new intimacy and immediacy with the listener. Jenn Grant’s intuitive ability to express emotion has helped to define her as one of Canada’s premiere vocalists; even in the darkest corners of the wilderness, her prismatic, iridescent voice continues to sparkle, dancing over adventurous new layers that include harp, flute and sitar.
Jenn Grant is a lively member of a thriving East Coast artist community. The Beautiful Wild features many notable locals, including Old Man Luedecke, Rose Cousins, Erin Costello, Kinley Dowling, David Christiansen and the Halifax Boys’ Honour Choir.

Cuff The Duke is excited to announce details of their new album, Union, which will be released in Canada on October 2nd, October 23rd in the US and October 29th in the UK on Paper Bag Records. As promised, Union is the second part of a two part album project that stared with the release of Morning Comes late last year. The two albums relate lyrically and visually. A number of the songs on the new album act as a response to the songs from Morning Comes. Union’s ‘Rise Above’ relates to ‘Standing on the Edge’ and ‘Something For Free’ relates to ‘Time Is Right’. Basia Bulat guests on album stand-outs ‘Side By Side’ and ‘Stay’.

“On Union, we moved away from our usual-sounding song structures, rock solos and harmonies by adding more sonic textures,” says the band’s Wayne Petti. “Morning Comes was more acoustic-based, this album is more electric-based. Instead of trying to find the perfect tone, it was more about exploring interesting sounds.”
