Heather Blush and The Uppercuts are a trio of best friends who knock the socks off each new audience they meet. Based in Calgary, Alberta, their sound can be described as somewhere between the "Adult Alternative" styles of Sarah Slean and Sarah Harmer, and old "Ella/Louis-style" vocal jazz/blues. Heather’s voice is often compared to Norah Jones, Maria Muldaur, and Joni Mitchell. With energetic, audience-engaging shows, she is quickly becoming known for songwriting that covers all bases between witty sarcasm and gutwrenching honesty. With “Captain” Steve Hazlett on drums and “Cannonball” Shane Sutherland on the upright bass, this trio packs a punch and leaves a lasting impression.
June 2008's release, "Vice", now has it's follow-up album. "Versa" is being launched with a cross-Canada tour right now! Check the upcoming gigs to find out when the trio is playing near you.
Check out our music videos! The first was filmed with Doug Cook in summer '06, and the second was a live performance at the Calgary Folk Fest/Ship and Anchor Songwriting Contest in May 07.
