Well it's official folks... the spring is finally here and with it comes new life! These past two years have been hard on us all in many ways, but we've managed to pull through and now we are thrilled to announce that we've produced some brand new Flint & Feather recordings!

We plan to release these songs throughout this year as our debut artist release - first online as a series of digital singles followed by the release of a physical album which will be available for purchase this summer/fall or by pre-order here. It feels incredible to finally share our music with the world after a long drought and we hope you'll share our joy!

Here it is folks! Incase you missed it, you can now view for yourself this short sample clip of 'Wild Rose' captured at the official unveiling of Joal's Provincial Artist in Residence project showcase which took place at the Polaris Centre for the Performing Arts mid-September of this year. We certainly hope you enjoy it. We'll be working on producing a full live performance video to release later on this fall, so keep your eyes peeled.

The key artist contributors who helped with the official debut performance and artwork unveiling are: visual artist, Bryony Toon; dance artists, Janita Frantsi and Kathleen Hughes; and professional musicians, Jason Hofer, Lisa Jacobs, and Lauren Kamps. 

We also wanted to acknowledge the incredible support offered to us by Aaron Talbot, Leela Aheer, Laurie Brown, and our family. We honestly don’t know how we would’ve gotten through this past year without your compassionate understanding, continued encouragement, and sage guidance.

Hello folks! Tonight is the night we unveil Joal's Artist In Residence Project, 'Wild Rose'. We will be taking the stage at 7:00 PM (MST) and will perform Wild Rose as our finale at approximately 7:35 PM. This project showcase is free-to-attend for the public, and if health or mobility are a concern, you can also tune-in the the livestream at: https://www.polariscentre.ca/listings/acd-flint-feather

Joining us for this debut will be talented musicians, Lisa Jacobs and Jason Hofer, and dancers, Janita Frantsi and Kathleen Hughes. Unfortunately commissioned visual artist, Bryony Toon is unable to attend this evening, but her original artwork for Wild Rose will be on display for viewing in-person.

It's that time of year again folks! We're now booking House Concerts (outdoor and indoor) throughout the end of summer and into the fall. If you would like to learn more about this incredible way to experience live music and community, please get in touch with us at your earliest convenience. We would love to partner with you!

In other news, Joal and I are currently working on his Artist in Residence project and look forward to continue unveiling more about this throughout August and September. The piece is called 'Wild Rose' and we've included a small sample from a recent soundcheck below:
