• Despite its origin far south of the tundra Treeline (Lethbridge) is a testament to a common yet atypical prairie landform; marking property lines, breaking wind and providing shade over the horseshoe pit. For the past four years the Southern Albertan quartet has been marinating in the underbelly of the Western Canadian Music Scene. Drawing comparisons to successful prairie artists to come before them like the Corb Lund and Old Reliable, it's no surprise that Treeline cites the pioneers of the country-roots tradition like Merle Haggard and Gram Parsons as primary influences. Joining Treeline in preparative efforts for a forthcoming split album (a follow up to 2011’s “Prairie Sentimentalist” with Sean Brewer) is fellow Lethbridge artist Shaela Miller. With nearly ten years of honing her craft behind her, Miller’s live show is a captivating experience reminiscent of country greats like Patsy Cline and Loretta Lynn. In the vein of her primary influences, Miller employs lyrical themes ranging from subtle overtones of heartbreak to candid observations of reality. But when asked to describe her music Miller simply replies "Honky Tonk.” Catch this collaborative quintet playing down home tunes and singing duets before you get to hear the album.
