News
Did you know that I put out a new song? It's called 'The Practice', and it's about wanting something (or someone) but getting in your own damn way. I'm often getting in my own way, which is why I'm so slow in posting about this! (But you know, I keep trying. Eventually.)
From the official PR:
Love is a practice. That's the takeaway from Colleen Brown's second single off Winging It. It's a collection of self penned / produced tracks that take on the topics of solitude and mortality, with a moderate dose of romantic optimism.
With piano recorded at the storied Vancouver studio Afterlife - yes, in the same room where Heart recorded Dreamboat Annie - tracked by Erik P.H. Nielsen, who also adds bass and mixed the track. Drums/percussion recorded by Edmonton stalwart Peter Hendrickson and layers of keys, mellotron flutes and vocals dubbed by Brown, The Practice reflects upon the first blush of young love, through loss & cynicism, and full circle back to faith in the inevitability of love.
We got a financial boost from Alberta Music to track this song 🙏 and finally complete Winging It - 3 years in the making for an album that claims impulsiveness (haha). I guess I'm trying to live somewhere between delicate perfectionism and inhibition here. I have always thought that is where things take flight.
You can LISTEN TO IT NOW!
Full album co-produced with Daniel Crowther, available Oct 7 on Flatcar Records / Fontana North with support from the Canada Council and Alberta Foundation for the Arts.
You can pre-order the album (cd or digital) NOW via Bandcamp!
And! We're going on tour this fall!
