Influenced by the ever-changing, ever-circling dark and light around her, Shelley O’Brien is a melancholy poet with an unshakably happy streak. She's been a bit of a vagabond, spending months sailing seas, years living in the far east, days traveling on trains through eastern and western Europe, and her songs are full of the subtleties of comings and goings. She has played in many places: a church in Dawson City, Yukon, The Drake Hotel in Toronto, a mountain top tea-house in Japan, a balcony in Umbria, a cigar lounge in the Gulf of Mexico. In June 2008 she completed her new album “you, me and the birds†with Vancouver indie producer Matthew Rogers (CR Avery, Mark Berube, The Fugitives). Using her toy-box collection of ukulele, casio, melodica and piano to accompany her rained-upon old style voice, she leads us through an abandoned fairground, reads us a whimsical children’s story, and sets us on our way, newfound.
be well, be happy, and thanks for listening.
