Among the many peculiarities of NYC's music, 22 year old Bri Arden is one of the reasons it's so hard to make any reasonable attempt at pinning down our city's music sound convincing. The Americana singer/songwriter looks and sounds like she just flew in from Texas, but Arden was in fact born right here in downtown NYC. Listening to songs from her second record "Awake," like barnburner 'Mr. Anonymous' or the wispy 'Wherever You Go,' your first impression might be of an alt-country singer filed somewhere between Carrie Underwood or Lady Antebellum. She has an unassuming and [...]

I don't know Bry Webb. I didn't listen to his previous band The Constantines. I now know Bry Webb and wonder what removed him from The Constantines. aaaannyywayy... The album 'Provider' from Webb comes in almost on a different planet (or different time in his life) than his previous material and to my ears this is a welcome thing. Provider is hushed, subdued but powerful, heartfelt and just plain good. As I mentioned my unfamiliarity with his full band effort in The Constantines (I mean I heard OF them of course, just didn't listen [...]

It doesn't much matter, as those words deserve to be attached to Webb's solo work and tied to something of higher purpose or greater good. They are selfless. Understated, without expectation or demands, just like Webb's song writing. [...]

Since The Constantines called an extended hiatus, frontman Bry Webb has been keeping himself busy: taking the role of Programming coordinator at CFRU in Guelph, presenting a musical improv show called Messengerbird (featuring downloadable collaborations with members of Evening Hymns, Islands and Minotaurs amongst others), joining forces with Sarah Hamer and Jim Guthrie as part of the National Parks Project as well as appearing as a guest on Feist's latest album (on 'The Bad In Each Other'). Today sees the Canadian release of his debut solo record [...]

Bry Webb has been busy. In the year or so since the Constantines announced their hiatus, their former lead singer has moved towns, changed jobs, had a son, toured with Dan Mangan and Feist, and oh yeah - recorded and released his debut solo album, Provider. All this change will change a man, and the diary-like Provider [...]
