SUMMARY:New Years Eve with Pretty Archie
DESCRIPTION:Tickets include admission\, midnight snacks\, swag\, champagne and whatnot.\n  \nCape Breton Americana band Pretty Archie to released their 6th studio album to mark and celebrate 10 years together\nLong time friends Brian Cathcart (Lead Vocals\, Guitar)\, Matt McNeil (Mandolin\, Guitar)\, Colin Gillis (Harmonica\, Bass\, Vocals)\, Redmond MacDougall (Banjo\, Percussion\, Vocals) and Scott MacLean (Guitar\, Mandolin) starting performing together in 2012. The band’s name is a nod to a Cape Breton local who embodied the love of playing and performing music. No matter where they tour or travel\, Pretty Archie will always be representing their hometown. \nPretty Archie\, their sixth studio album\, is one of which they are justifiably proud. It represents a quantum leap forward in the evolution of the group’s sound. ”I feel each of our other records was a step ahead of the previous one\, but this one is six steps ahead\,” declares Colin Gillis. “We are proud of everything we’ve put out\, but this is at a different level.”\nPinning down the ‘Pretty Archie sound’ hasn’t always been easy. Their style has incorporated elements of bluegrass\, folk\, country\, and had that ‘East Coast vibe’. Describing the new album\, Brian states “it is more focused\, even though you still can’t quite put a finger on it. For us it definitely has way more of a country vibe. This is an alternative country or Americana-style…” \nHelping the group realize the formidable creative achievement that is Pretty Archie was internationally-acclaimed record producer and engineer Mark Howard\, whose star-studded resume includes work with the likes of Bob Dylan\, Willie Nelson\, U2\, Tom Waits\, The Tragically Hip\, Peter Gabriel\, and more. Howard’s fortuitous recent relocation to Cape Breton afforded Pretty Archie the opportunity to take advantage of his skills\, and the band couldn’t be happier with the results.\n“It was all basically recorded live off the floor\, with minimal overdubs\,” adds Colin. “That’s something we had always wanted\, and Mark was able to do that. There’s a certain ambience and energy in recording that way.” \nWith every record and tour Pretty Archie carries a little piece of home a bit farther afield. Since their 2013 debut album\, Steel City\, the band have built an ever- larger following on the east coast\, across Canada and are now set to continue growing their International audience. \nCathcart explains that “as a band\, we wear our East Coast hearts on our sleeves. We are very proud of where we are from\, but our focus now is exposing people internationally to our part of the world.” Gillis adds that “if you are genuine and true to yourselves\, then people will attach themselves to that\, no matter where you are from.” \nPretty Archie have long been regional favourites\, with a stack of Music Nova Scotia and East Coast Music Award nominations to their credit. They are now looking globally\, and with Pretty Archie they have an album ready for international prime time play. \nThe upbeat and joyous “Familiar Feeling” and catchy “Reasons” showcase the band’s instrumental prowess\, while Brian digs deep vocally on the haunting ballad “Feel It In My Bones.” At Howard’s suggestion\, “Someone New” became a duet\, featuring Austin-based Maritime honky-tonker Whitney Rose\, and the contrasting vocals add real resonance. Brian is especially proud of “Maritime\,” a song written right in the studio that features these poignant lyrics – ”If your heart breaks down\, we’ll use mine. It is weathered and weary\, but it is Maritime.” \nPretty Archie’s genuine\, heartfelt writing connects listeners with a saltwater perspective on modern living. Their fun loving and at times heartbreaking music finds common ground in the blurred genres of Country\, Folk\, Bluegrass and Americana. Their unique sound and energetic shows leave listeners with a lasting memory. \nQUOTES: \n“It is hard to pigeonhole Pretty Archie. It encompasses an uplifting myriad of (but not limited to) hillbilly country\, blues\, bluegrass and folk. Throw a banjo\, harmonica and mandolin in and together the foursome offers a different brand of music\, a relentless\, raw\, uncontrived mash of genres that is distinctly Pretty Archie” -Andrew Rankin (Cape Breton Star) \n“Cape Breton\, Nova Scotia has a well known reputation for creating great musical talent. From The Rankin Family to Ashley MacIsaac to the late Rita MacNeil\, this artistic hotbed on the country’s East Coast has produced some of Canada’s best musicians. From this proud region now comes Pretty Archie\, a folk-bluegrass-country group from Cape Breton that will impress audiences with their strong chops…..With their impressive blend of folk\, blues\, bluegrass and country this band has produced a great sound that is oodles of fun to listen to” – Alejandro Bustos (Apt613.com\, Ottawa) \n“While Pretty Archie’s music blurs the lines between multiple genres\, all the ingredients of their sound have been nurtured by the setting they grew up in.” – FYI Music News\, Jason Schneider \n“Pretty Archie always finds some way to encourage listeners to take lean times in stride\, suck it up\, stick it out and just keep going!” – BuzzMusic \nAwards & Recognition:\n5x Music Nova Scotia Awards nominations\n3x East Coast Music Association nominations:\nCountry Album of the Year; North End Sky and Sing Alongs & Love Songs Roots Album of the Year; Running for Cover \nNotable Appearances Include:\nThe Grey Cup Festival (Ottawa ON)\, Rogers Hometown Hockey (Dartmouth and Sydney NS)\, Sudbury Festival of Lights Boreal (Sudbury\, ON)\, Celtic Colours (Halifax\, NS) Stan Rogers Folk Festival (Canso\, NS)\, Roots Night at Royal Botanical Gardens (Burlington\, ON)\, The Ironwood (Calgary\, AB)\, The Dakota Tavern (Toronto\, ON)\, Writers at Woody Point (Woody Point NL)\, Tonder Festival (Denmark)\, Celtic Connections (Glasgow\, Scotland). \nShowcase Festivals & Conferences: Folk Alliance International\, AmericanaUK Fest\, Contact East\, Nova Scotia Music Week\, East Coast Music Week\, Folk Music Ontario\, NXNE and OSAC. \nDiscography:\nPretty Archie (2022)\nRunning For Cover (2020)\nHanging On (2019)\nSing Alongs & Love Songs (2016)\nNorth End Sky (2015)\nSteel City (2013)

SUMMARY:David Myles
DESCRIPTION:With two Junos to his credit\, David Myles has established himself as a world-class entertainer with an uncanny knack for dispersing profound truths about the human condition through dynamic songwriting. Born and based in New Brunswick\, he’s a sonic shapeshifter with more than 15 albums that run the gamut—in English and French—through classic folk traditions\, impassioned rock ‘n’ roll\, earthy\, existential blues\, cosmic jazz and funk instrumentals\, reflective Americana\, and sweltering R&B. And on stage—whether solo or accompanied by a full band—the music is tight and the vibe is loose\, with Myles able to command\, charm\, and uplift audiences in both intimate clubs and grand theatres. The throughline in his work is a deep understanding of our need for connection and an attempt to reach out and make them through musical collaboration\, live performance\, or deep-digging\, heart-to-heart conversations with fellow artists on his podcast and video series Myles From Home. \nMyles’ latest offering is what he likes to call his “sinnin’ record\,” the spirited Devil Talking—an album that finds him drawing on his many well-honed musical modes to sing about “partying\, making mistakes\, falling apart and trying to pull yourself together again.” Devil Talking builds on a special era of Myles’ career\, a time of creative blossoming during which he’s worked with a core team of musicians to construct some of the most powerful and soul-searching work in his oeuvre. It began in 2021 with the multitudinous That Tall Distance\, which won the 2022 JUNO Award for Instrumental Album of the Year\, and continued on with 2022’s It’s Only a Little Loneliness\, which explored love\, loss\, and faith. These years of close collaboration have found Myles embracing every facet of his self and artistry\, creating a lush\, sophisticated sound that defies easy categorization. \nHis relentless work ethic has earned him numerous awards and accolades; a robust artist profile stateside; and a feature and co-writing credit on “Inner Ninja\,” a cross-genre collaboration with rapper Classified and the biggest-selling rap single in the history of Canadian music. On top of Myles From Home\, his various projects including a 2018 children’s book called Santa Never Brings Me a Banjo\, and Singing For Supper\, a long-running concert series that raises money for local food banks. \nOpen in Spotify \nOpen in Spotify \nOpen in Spotify

SUMMARY:Steve Poltz - Nova Scotia Homecoming Tour
DESCRIPTION:It might’ve even been last night\, but Steve Poltz just played the greatest show of his life. Guess what?  \nThe next show will be even greater\, making that show the greatest show of his life.  \nAre you starting to notice a trend?  \nHe isn’t shy about it either.  \nEven after most likely thousands of shows (but who’s counting?)\, he hits the stage with the same amount of energy and always makes sure to declare\, “This is the greatest show of my life.”  \nIt’s why he’s quietly emerged as the kind of live phenomenon celebrated passionately by a diehard fanbase worldwide and renowned as a festival favorite everywhere from Bluesfest in Byron Bay and High Sierra Music Festival in California and Telluride Bluegrass Festival in Colorado to Cayamo Cruise (where he actually got married). It’s why his music has crept into pop culture via collaborations with everyone from Jewel and Billy Strings to Molly Tuttle\, Sierra Hull\, Nicki Bluhm\, Oliver Wood\, and even the late Mojo Nixon. It’s why after over a dozen albums\, he’s still creatively firing on all cylinders and critically acclaimed by the likes of Rolling Stone\, Associated Press\, Billboard\, and many more.  \nNevertheless\, the next gig will be the greatest show for him (and maybe for you too)… \n“I started doing it years ago\, because I feel grateful to still be alive\,” he notes. ”Even today\, I still do it\, and I believe my own bullshit. I convinced myself that every show is the greatest show I’ve ever played. They’re all different\, and it depends on my mood each day\, but I know I’m there to entertain people. It always cracks me up when I stumble into some sort of weird thing that’s handed to me like a gift from the freaky deadly heavens above.” \nSteve might as well be “a gift from the freaky deadly heavens above” himself. He was born in Nova Scotia—Halifax\, to be exact. Somewhere along the way\, he began his relationship with the guitar at six-years-old. “We’re joined at the hip and lip and it’s always near my grip\,” he affirms. He grew up in Los Angeles and Palm Springs (where he “met Elvis and Liberace”) and settled in San Diego (where he cut his teeth “under the tutelage of The Beat Farmers”).  \nHe kicked off his musical journey in San Diego-bred underground favorites The Rugburns. However\, the world got to know Steve when co-wrote two tracks from Jewel’s diamond-certified debut Pieces Of You\, including the multi platinum Billboard Hot 100 #2 “You Were Meant For Me” (he’s also in the video). He delivered his own full-length debut One Left Shoe in 1998 and paved the way for an extensive solo catalog defined by what he calls “evocative lyrics mixed with positivity and traces of tragicomedy.”  \nIf you so choose\, you can trace his evolution from “Everything About You” (which popped up in Notting Hill) to the staple “Can O’ Pop”— christened “a fizzy delight” by Rolling Stone. The latter graced his 2022 album\, Stardust & Satellites. Co-produced and created with The Wood Brothers\, it garnered widespread acclaim. HOLLER. hailed it as “a wonderfully energized\, often joyful and wryly provocative release from the charismatic Steve Poltz\,” while No Depression dubbed it “poignant and ultimately uplifting.” Glide Magazine applauded how\, “He takes chances like few others and seems to be increasingly more unconventional as he embraces Americana.” \nSimultaneously\, a myriad of artists continue to seek him out as a collaborator in the studio. Whether it be “Leaders” with Billy Strings or “Million Miles” with Molly Tuttle\, he’s got dozens of cuts with various friends under his belt. He contributed two tunes to Deer Tick’s Emotional Contracts with frontman John J. McCauley going on to profess to Brooklyn Vegan\, “Steve Poltz may be the biggest\, most direct inspiration for me on this record.” \nSteve adds\, “Usually when these folks and many others come over to my house in Nashville we end up with something I love. I try not to overthink it. There are no rules. It’s kind of like fishing. You don’t catch anything if you don’t throw your rod in the water. So I guess I just try to be available for inspiration\, mixed with perspiration and exasperation.” \nSpeaking of perspiration\, he regularly travels far and wide to audiences of all ages and all continents most every day.  \n“I travel from town to town and fool people\,” he grins. “I sing them songs and tell them stories and somehow they decide to pay money to obtain some merch and witness the spectacle. Then I return a year later and fool them again.” \nIn the end\, Steve is probably gearing up for the greatest show of his life as you read this.  \nThankfully\, that will never change. \nHe signs off\, “I’m just a weirdo\, a freak\, a bon vivant\, a rounder\, a rabble rouser\, a workaholic\, a people pleaser\, an idiot and a grateful kid who ran away and joined the circus.”  \nOpen in Spotify  \nOpen in Spotify \n  \nOpen in Spotify \n
