Toronto-based singer/songwriter Signe Miranda's solo EP is called ‘Love Wins’. The five-song disc explores themes of love lost and won in a sincere alt-folk-pop style. A bedroom recording, the album is built mostly upon acoustic guitar and vocals, though it does include some guest musicians, Brian Allossery (The Lazy Poets), Sarah Greene (The Pickups) and Laura Fernandez. ‘Love Wins’ is charting on college radio stations across Canada and is being played on radio in the United States, Germany, Belarus, Macedonia, Colombia, Australia and New Zealand.
Originally from Belleville, Ontario, Signe began playing music at an early age and by fifteen was playing guitar and writing songs. She is the lead singer and guitarist of folk-rock-punk band Signe Miranda’s Veranda and drummer in roots-rock band The Pickups. Signe has performed for audiences in Canada, the UK and Norway.
“We really love your engaging style, it is emotive, minimalist, evocative and very subtle. The choice of material backed up with guitar is marvellous and gels together in a hauntingly beautiful sound that has you wanting more and our audiences most certainly will love your heartfelt songs…” Peter Merrett (Music Manager, PBS FM 106-7, Melbourne, Australia)

As well, it is Thanksgiving weekend, and there's just so much to be thankful for, including live music in this great city of ours, and BOOZE... so are you comin' or what?
I'm glad you're finally on my friends list. Sorry it took me so long to notice. I rarely get access to a computer. No shows that i know of, but I am available if anyone wants me. I'm not very good at getting out there. Life's been taking me elsewhere this year, but i hope to get inspired soon. Take care & keep on keeping on. Derek

Hey there, Here's one from left field... Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat? A while back I came across some very disturbing information, which inspired me to make this video: Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaIim3Rj7L4 Both artistic (ensure you've good enough sound to enjoy the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice. Though the source materials are somewhat aged, the fundamentals remain relevant today. I encourage all to visit the YouTube web page above to learn more (Show your support! Rate! Comment!) and responsibly re-post and circulate as widely as possible. Help to raise awareness. Say have you checked out my web site (http://www.faberoptime.com) recently?
