About shuyler jansen

As a career artist Shuyler Jansen has spent 17 years expanding the boundaries of his genre. Both lyrically and musically Shuyler is a throwback to an earlier era of country-folk ballad but with a grip steadfast on the fringes of rock and pop. Originally stationed in Edmonton, Alberta, Shuyler now lives in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan actualizing his muse as band leader of Old Reliable and through his solo albums "Hobotron" and "Today's Remains". Jansen recently recorded his third solo album with Vancouver production duo John Collins and David Carswell (Destroyer, New Pornographers etc…). Shuyler's musical directions have involved a shift away from the roots rock he has always been associated with into more abstract territory. His songs reflect deliberate ideas about our relationship between nature and nurture, creating music that occupies a personal nook in our record collections and ipods. A past recipient of the Nashville Film Festival Music Award for his score of the aboriginal cult film "HWFN", Shuyler was also recently featured on CMT's "The Dakota Sessions" with The Sadies, Cowboy Junkies and several others.
