The Be Good Tanyas' Frazey Ford Solo Debut

06/21/2010
.
The Be Good Tanyas' Frazey Ford will release her debut solo album, entitled "Obadiah," on July 20. Frazey is also set to return to the stage this summer with a full summer tour to be announced soon.

Obadiah combines Frazey's gorgeous sultry vocals that defined the Tanyas' sound, with her ever growing love for soul music, adding a rich fullness and bottom end to the 13 tracks that comprise the debut.

Recorded during a blissful Vancouver summer, Obadiah is a collection of songs hand-carved by the hardships and exaltations of life and stained with the rich colors of soul and folk music that fueled artists like Joni Mitchell, Ann Peebles, Neil Young, and Donny Hathaway.

Fronting the beloved East Vancouver alt folk trio, The Be Good Tanyas, Frazey and the band achieved cult status since their beginning in the late 90's. With classic albums Blue Horse, Chinatown and Hello Love, the three young women were met with ever growing critical and fan acclaim, garnering 4 star reviews in Rolling Stone and MOJO and selling out concert halls across North America and Europe.
