Lee Anna James Delivers The Hard Truth

Im not working off of gimmicks, Im working off of real life, Lee Anna James says about her debut EP, The Hard Truth a sentiment that helps define what makes it one of the most refreshing releases of the year.

This Nashville singer/songwriter has built a loyal fan base with her intimate lyrics and soulful live performances, and with songs like Every Little Lie, Different Color, and the title track, The Hard Truth is driven by an authenticity not found in many new artists.

With this batch of songs I was trying to build a foundation on being honest and organic, so that its timeless music, she says. With my favorite artists Tom Petty, Sheryl Crow, Bonnie Raitt its not about their branding, its about their music, their character, and standing the test of time. So what I try to do is relate to my audience the way I want artists to speak to me, just being real.

Backed by talent old and new, The Hard Truth also features a number of top Nashville musicians, including Kyle Cook (guitarist for Matchbox Twenty), Black Crowes drummer Steve Gorman, and Dave Santos (touring bassist for John Fogerty, Billy Joel), as well as keyboardist Jon Coleman, and multi-instrumentalist and co-writer Mike Fiorentino.

I have this mind-blowing band supporting me, and theyve added so much color to the lyrics, she says. I was in awe of being around these amazing players, and seeing people at the top of their game helping bring my music to life. It was a real collective effort, and Ive never been so inspired by the process of making music.

As Lee Annas fans will assure you, the album is only half the story¬, and shes excited about spending the rest of 2009 touring in support of The Hard Truth. Her passion for her work thrives on stage, with Lee Annas warm presence and connection with her audience complimenting the honesty of the songwriting.

I try to be in touch with the crowd, and my live experience is like youre hanging out with me and my friends at home, she says. Weve had such a great response to these songs already, and the support I get from fans is whats really reinforced everything I do.

I think with The Hard Truth and this tour were creating music that connects with audiences on a more personal level. I feel we could go anywhere from here Ive never been better, the band has never been better, and were on our way to connecting with even more people, and growing as artists.

FILMED DURING CANADIAN MUSIC FEST 2011

BALCONYTV TORONTO IS BROUGHT TO YOU IN ASSOCIATION WITH INDIE WEEK AND THE UNDERGROUND GARAGE
PRESENTED BY NOEL COPEMAN

Over 7 years and 4 albums, Montreal band the High Dials have turned out a varied repertoire of anthemic pop, upbeat psych and melancholic folk-rock balladry. They've won high marks for their live performances from Brooklyn Vegan, Spin, Magnet and the New York Post, who declared them "a must-see band".

The High Dials debuted on NYC-based Rainbow Quartz Records in 2003 with "A New Devotion", a mishmash of retro-freakbeat sounds and shimmering pop with a hidden lyrical storyline. The album made a fan of Little Steven Van Zandt of Bruce Springsteen fame who played them heavily on his syndicated radio show and slotted them in with the Strokes, the Stooges, New York Dolls and other music legends at his Underground Garage Festival in 2004.

"War of the Wakening Phantoms" (2005) was their follow-up album. Produced by Joseph Donovan (the Dears, Sam Roberts) and mixed in LA by Dave Bianco (Tom Petty, Frank Black, Teenage Fanclub), it won widespread rave reviews from such influential publications as NME, Spin and the Washington Post. The album went to number one on Canadian college radio charts and the High Dials supported the release as tour partners for both Brian Jonestown Massacre and Neko Case, criss-crossing North America and the UK over many months.

In 2007, the band released "The Holy Ground EP", which featured a collaboration with Rod Argent, legendary songwriter of High Dials' heroes The Zombies! That same year, they enjoyed sudden mainstream exposure when their song "The Holy Ground" featured in a prominent ad campaign for Rogers mobile in Canada.

In 2008, the High Dials' released their third LP "Moon Country" (Fontana North/Universal, 2008). Begun in a remote stone cottage in Ireland, the eclectic, sprawling double album showcased everything from droning dance grooves and spaced-out rock to wistful cosmic folk. They returned to the road in support of the record, a cycle that peaked with a memorable opening slot for Echo & the Bunnymen at SXSW 2009.

In 2010, they reunited with Rainbow Quartz, and set about building a home studio in an abandoned (reputedly haunted) Montreal building that once belonged to the Canadian navy. The recordings were mixed by Michael Musmanno (Lilys, Cadence Weapon) in New York City. The resulting album, "Anthems for Doomed Youth" was released on November 2, 2010.

Currently on the High Dialian roster: Trevor Anderson (vocals and guitar), Robbie MacArthur (lead guitar), George Donoso III (drums) and Eric Dougherty (keys).

My name is Tory and I am a independent singer/songwriter/musician based in the Austin and Houston areas. I write my own original music in the pop blues rock vein. I also am a big music fan and play a ton of covers of other artists including everything from Tom Petty to Reckless Kelly to Little Wayne. I love to entertain and play a lot of different events and venues around Texas as a one man band such as Saxon Pub, Momos, Cellar Door, Fitzgeralds, Avant Garden, Wine Styles, County Line, etc.

I love to get a crowd riled up and get them dancing, yet I also love relaxing an audience in upscale environments. It's all about the audience for me. I play acoustic and electric guitar and keyboard and I have boundless energy and enthusiasm for what I do.

I have a lot of videos on YOUTUBE you should check out. It includes a mix of live performances at venues like SAXON PUB and MOMOS in Austin as well as home videos of me doing various covers.

As a university student at UT Austin, my touring outside Texas has been limited to weekends and summers, but I have had the opportunity to play in Nashville, Los Angeles, Orange County (various) and even in Prague, Czech Republic!!

I recently released a short album back in January of my own original music. I have written dozens of originals, so a full album is on the way. Read the review below of the album by producer Marco Parella (below), and check out the EP on iTunes!!
