We've signed to True North Records and are about to release our third album, No Fool For Trying, on our new label in Canada.
We’re also doing a few shows in Ontario with label mate, singer-songwriter Catherine MacLellan before the CD launch in June (starting tomorrow night - June 11) and loads of Canadian touring this summer.

WHY YOU SHOULD RESERVE TICKETS IN ADVANCE
a) Tickets are cheaper and everyone loves a good deal.
b) You’ll get the pick of the litter for seats.
c) You’ll have a place to sit for dinner, rather than cross-legged against a wall.
d) To impress your friends (‘cause they'll know your name at the door).
e) Because we’ll love ya for it. Isn’t that enough already?
f) Because you will already know the words to our new songs and you'll be sure to get in. (the complete album can be heard on our website right now)
No Fool For Trying was released in Germany in April to some amazing reviews and has been made "Album of the Week" on Denmark's largest national radio chain, P4.
Here’s what the critics have said so far:
"No Fool For Trying is certainly in a class with the works of Gillian Welch or Lucinda Williams." All My Music
"Quiet, thrilling, acoustically designed songs of breathtaking beauty - and some personal tragedy. Hardly ever has alternative country/ folk sounded more intriguing." Country Music News (Germany)
5 out of 5***** Country Music News (Germany)
"Thoughtful, poetic, deep, soft, and sometimes pleasantly melancholic... reminiscent of Emmylou." Schattenblick
"This album takes them right through the door opened by the whole ‘O Brother Where Art Thou?’ phenom, with Alison Krauss & Robert Plant holding said door for them. ‘No Fool For Trying’ doesn’t have the ancient vibe that ‘Raising Sand’ does, but it sounds like the records could be kissing cousins." Gonzo Magazine
We've got loads more shows in Canada in the summertime. Hope you can find your town in the list.
