About The Bros. Landreth
The Bros. Landreth welcomed a new day with Come Morning, an album that marked both a rebirth and refinement of the award-winning band’s blend of North American roots music and harmony-heavy soul. The brothers embarked on a sold-out and near capacity tour of clubs and festivals across Canada, the US, Europe, and Australia, including stand-out performances at Byron Bay Blues Festival and Eric Clapton’s Crossroads at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. Come Morning earned the band its second JUNO, this time for Contemporary Album of the Year. Also in 2023, a banner year for the band, Joey and Dave became Grammy-winning songwriters when Bonnie Raitt’s cover of their song, Made Up Mind (from their first album, Let it Lie), earned the Grammy for Americana Performance of the Year. The cover was big news for the band as the lead single off her newest chart-topping album, spending 14 weeks in the number one spot on the Americana radio charts.
About Whitehorse
Whitehorse is the prolific partnership of Melissa McClelland and Luke Doucet. Uninhibited by expectation, boldly adventurous and categorically talented, Whitehorse’s signature sound is always guitar-heavy, harmony-plentiful and lyrically deft.
With an expansive run of records that freely and thrillingly dip in psychedelic country, pop noir, squalling blues rock and celestial folk, Whitehorse have pushed their musical identity into new realms and sounds for over a decade. As attested by five consecutive JUNO Award nominations in many different genre categories, Whitehorse do a lot of things, and do them well.
On their new record, Whitehorse venture deeper into classic country music touchstones than ever before, a move that is both a homecoming and an evolution of their sound. I’m Not Crying, You’re Crying is an immaculate collection of 70s country-inspired songs that showcase Whitehorse at their absolute best.
