Six voices, 11 new songs
Six Atlantic songwriters from six different genres came together for three days in Fredericton in January for the inaugural East Coast Music Hour Song Camp.
The artists Julie Doiron, Rose Cousins, Jah'Mila, Wolf Castle, Jake Nicoll and P'tit Belliveau hunkered down at a beautiful B&B in Fredericton, N.B. to collaborate on new songs.
They lived together, they ate together and collectively they wrote 11 songs — in just two days. Then they unveiled their collaborations at a Songwriters' Circle at the Fredericton Playhouse for the opening of the Shivering Songs Festival.
The concert, hosted by ECMH's Bill Roach, features an opening set by Fredericton's The Hello Crows.
