The Wilderness of Manitoba Releases New Singles and Videos
I signed The Wilderness of Manitoba twelve years ago. Since then, they’ve toured the United States four times; performed in the Consulate General’s living room in Los Angeles; played twice at SXSW in Austin; toured the UK twice; received a standing ovation at the End of the Road Festival in England; played Peter Gabriel’s WOMAD Festival and cooked bison burgers by request; performed at the Reeperbahn Festival in Hamburg; played festivals in the Netherlands; toured or played shows with Aimee Mann, Lord Huron, Other Lives and Low Anthem among others; released five albums and three EPs; had songs featured in several US television series and been nominated for a JUNO award. I’ve been fortunate to be there for those shows, in those studios and hearing all those songs as they were written. Well, it’s that time again. After a three year hiatus, the band will be releasing their sixth album, Farewell To Cathedral, on October 29th. Before that though, we have videos for the singles The Alchemist and Sometimes. The songs were written by founding member Will Whitwham who was ably accompanied by singer/guitarist Victoria Carr, bassist/singer Tavo Diez de Bonilla and drummer/singer Adam Balsam. The Alchemist video was created by Will Whitwham and the Sometimes video by Maggie Gray.
