The Making of “Painting With Tides”

As you may have heard, Painting With Tides was recently nominated for “Female Solo Recording of the Year” at the 2011 East Coast Music Awards.  I’m grateful to be recognized in this category alongside some of the strongest and best female artists in Atlantic Canada, many of which I’m honoured to call friends.

Of course, I couldn’t have made this record without the help of some more incredible Atlantic Canadians, some of whom are also up for ECMA Awards this year. Working with incredible artists like Joel Plaskett, Old Man Luedecke, Thom Swift, Carmel Mikol, David Bradshaw, Rosie MacKenzie, Geoff Arsenault, Brian Bourne, Kev Corbett, Phil Sedore and more while Charles Austin, Graeme Campbell, Dale Murray and J. Lapointe oversaw the technical aspects of recording, mixing and mastering, I was able to capture exactly what I was looking for. I owe everyone involved in creating and releasing this record a great deal of thanks.

Here’s a bit more about “The Making of Painting”, mostly in my own words. Use the links below to check out a series of video clips we shot during the recording of Painting With Tides:
