Is Your Life As It Should Be...coming soon!

About Me

A West Coast Music Award nominee for Outstanding Roots Album and a 6-time BCCMA nominee, Angela Harris is gearing up to tour her 3rd record, "Is Your Life As It Should Be" in 2008/09. Co-produced by Harris and Eric Reed, the album is set for release this spring by Maximum/EMI. Touring as the Angela Harris Band, she is a remarkable storyteller and songwriter with a voice that can turn your head and your heart.

"...Angela Harris is blessed with a strong and honest voice and a way of stringing words into compelling personal vignettes that illuminate the corners of an interesting life. Melodies are strong...her performance makes this one of the year's standout roots albums."...Greg Quill, Toronto Star, Canada (3.5 stars out of 4)

"Her voice is smooth and thick as molasses...Harris uses music as a venue for broader ideas than jingoistic politics, unrequited love and the sanctity of being a good ol boy. Roots is a beautiful-sounding album, with simple arrangements and production."...Shereen Tuomi, Calgary News and Entertainment Weekly, FFW Weekly, Canada

"Harris is more involved in her project than country artists usually are... For making intelligent, homegrown country that hasn't been soiled by pop over-production, Harris deserves attention."...Bruce Leperre, Winnipeg Free Press, Canada

Angela Harris updates the beauty and timelessness of traditional music in her new release "Roots". Co-produced with great sensitivity and skill by Eric Reed, Angela's original compositions touch on family, friends, and the importance of our personal connections in everyday life....in songs that do so with grace, memorable melodies, and passion. Her voice is as honeyed as the soft breezes in her native British Columbia in the spring, and the musical arrangements are uncluttered yet eloquent."Tom May, Producer - "River City Folk", WFMT Radio Network, USA
