With nine critically acclaimed releases, a #1 single, a JUNO Award, and a devoted fan base blanketing the globe, roots-Americana trio Good Lovelies are among Canada's brightest musical lights. The hardworking trio of Caroline Brooks, Kerri Ough, and Susan Passmore, songwriters and multi-instrumentalist all, are queens of three-part harmony which is showcased again on their latest release.
On Juno-nominated "We Will Never Be the Same", you can hear the eighteen years Caroline Marie Brooks, Kerri Ough & Susan Passmore have spent singing and writing together in the lush vocal arrangements, layered guitars, garnishes of banjo and wurlitzer and rich drum and percussion textures.
"We Will Never Be the Same" is Good Lovelies' first collection of original material since their 2018 release "Shapeshifters" and, in terms of instrumentation and musical tone, hearkens back to their acoustic, rootsy beginnings nearly two decades ago. It is a powerful collection of songs that explore the entry into the second act of life - into the myriad of feelings and experiences that accompany middle-age, raising young children and facing the grief of losing loved ones.
There is power and strength in this album; a story of lives well-lived and an undercurrent of hope. It is a testament not only to their artistry, but also their humanity, and is an album that will continue to endear this beloved group to fans of all ages. "We Will Never Be the Same" is a beautiful offering that has been well worth the wait.
Look for Good Lovelies on the road as a trio throughout most of the year, and as a 6-piece band for their beloved annual Christmas tour.
For physical events that happen at a specific time. For example a concert, or dance performance. If there are multiple shows, you can still duplicate your event to cover them all.
