Our good friend Joshua Wright recorded Kurt and I playing our song "Flight" in Vancouver in early November 2009.
Thanks to Jason DeBack for this impromtu video of the beautiful Boubacar Traore song "Je Chanterai Pour Toi" that we covered late one night in Vancouver...
Ilana Cameron has taken the long and winding road, gaining a depth to her music that only time and experience can make.
The debut EP "In Starlight" was recently released in Creston BC at the Snoring Sasquatch. It will be available online in mid January on iTunes, CDBaby etc.
Special News!!! After touring the West Coast this fall with her musical collaborators, they discovered that they were more than a backing band and decided to form themselves under a new title.
THE OARS!!!
Check out the new band page below, they are my top friend. Super stoked!!
She also plays piano in a Jazz Quintet called After Hours, and sometimes when they are lucky Donny Clark sits in for a set or two.
