   About Barley Wik
Barley Wik sing like angels and play an array of acoustic instruments like they sold their souls to the devil. The all-female band reinvents old-time music with an impressive collection of well-crafted original songs that reshape folk and country with a little twist of bluegrass. The band’s name comes from the 15th century term bailiwick, a reference to someone’s area of authority. It’s a place where someone can have their say, and Barley Wik’s members have their say as a collection of individuals with wildly eclectic musical influences. Barley Wik’s sound reflects a musical style as diverse as their individual histories. The groups’ roots in the Saskatchewan prairie, small town Ontario, 1960s British styles, and a strong tie to the land merge to create a singular sound that incorporates a range of musical forms. Old-time country, folk, blues, bluegrass and spirituals inspire Barley Wik’s songs. All members are songwriters, and each brings a creativity and honesty to their music-making which keeps it real. Since forming in 2002, the Victoria-based band has produced three independently recorded, critically acclaimed CDs. Monday Magazine chose Triangle Mountain the “most listenable CD” in 2004, while Barley Wik’s second CD, Dusty Lullaby, was chosen album of the year in 2005 at the Vancouver Island Music Awards. Barley Wik's newest release, Beyond The Down, has already reached CBC airwaves. Barley Wik have made two successful cross-Canada tours and are a fixture on Victoria’s vibrant music scene. The band’s music was featured on Village 900’s World Music Vol. 2 and Grrrls With Guitars, a Vancouver-based independent label showcasing west coast women singer songwriters. Last spring, Barley Wik was one of 15 bands chosen in a cross-Canada competition to appear on the Dig Your Roots compilation CD, a Canadian talent development initiative of the National Campus and Community Radio Association. Jane Siberry recently chose the band for IndiEclectic.com, the artist-run on-line music showcase. Siberry describes Barley Wik’s music as “heart, spirit, wide, dusty (but clear), great energy.” “heart, spirit, wide, dusty (but clear), great energy.” - Jane Siberry - For bookings please contact GRELIN Entertainment Inc. greg@grelin.com or email us barleywik@yahoo.com. ..Myspace Layout Generator-Layoutgen.com

CountryHome Forum, http://groups.myspace.com/CountryHomeMagazine , is one of the biggest Forum for country music in Europe and part of CountryHome, www.countryhome.de , Germany's Premier Online Country Music Magazine.

CountryHome Forum have more than 5,000 members. Each news you submit to CountryHome Forum will released to my weekly Newsletter with more than 50,000 readers.

Please submit your artist news and events to CountryHome Forum to help your artists to get well known better in Europe. If you do not have the time to submit your artist news and events by yourself, please send it me to: Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de and I will submit them by myself to CountryHome Forum.

I know that many artists from North America don't have their music videos uploaded to German video websites. The most popular websites are MyVideo.de and ClipFish.de. That means your European audience does not have the chance to find them.

I understand that most of you don't speak German and are not able to upload videos because of the language barrier. If you would like me to upload your videos to the German video websites, please let me know.

Thanks

No way, you bought a CD? That's so cool! I really enjoyed your set too, sorry I didn't stick around to chat. I was sick plus I had to move out of my place by the next day.
I'm coming to Victoria with Viper Central on the 30th, if I don't see any of you there hopefully we'll meet again soon!
