"If Regina Spector grew up listening to Propagandhi and The Weakerthans..."
Winnipeg born Jody Glenham's 2006 release, 'Brave New World', was recorded at The Norwood in Edmonton, AB by James Murdoch and Captain Tractor founder, Chris Wynters. It features programming/sequencing by ex-Watchman bass player, Ken Tizzard.
A prairie girl at heart, Jody toured Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba shortly after the album's release. The Edmonton performance and interview footage were broadcast on City TV’s "In the City". She was also asked to be part of a panel of DIY musicians for the Access Media Group program, "Help TV". The episode played out across Canada on CHUM Television.
'Brave New World' charted at number 4 on CJSR's Folk/Roots/Blues charts and is in active rotation on CKUA in Alberta. It has been featured on Jeff Goode's program "Fresh Air" on CBC Radio One in Toronto and songs off the disc have been picked up by CBC radio stations nationwide. The album was also listed in the Manitoba Audio Recording Industry Association's Music Release Highlights for 2006.
The standout track, 'When I Grow Up', with its pots-and-pans rhythm section, was named Top 3 Song of 2006 by Edmonton Journal's music editor, Sandra Sperounes and was recently included in the Winter 2008 issue of Vancouver arts magazine, One Cool Word.
Jody has shared the stage with such Canadian mainstays as Veda Hille, Christine Fellows and Danny Michel. She performs as part of Mikey Manville's (The Manvils) country collective and plays keys in the electro-pop band XCTBK.
Jody played to a full house at this year's New Music West Festival in Vancouver. She plans for the next album due out in October, with Jesse Gander (The Hive, Ghost House) in the producer’s chair.
