The Jessica Stuart Few歌手简介:
“Its a rare album that comes along that truly sounds unique and independent of the rest. Torontos The Jessica Stuart Few gave me one of those WTF moments, stopping me in my tracks for a good, close listen of the groups new Two Sides To Every Story…　Stuart has a gorgeous voice, pure and expressive… All that, and the distinctive koto playing, a blend not heard anywhere else.” – Bob Mersereau, CBC Music
Internationally-touring indie folk-jazz power trio, The Jessica Stuart Few has one of the newest sounds around. The band’s sophomore album, Two Sides to Every Story, was released to critical acclaim (dubbed, ‘endlessly charismatic’, by The Globe and Mail’s Brad Wheeler) with lead single ’Don’t Ya’ being proclaimed ‘the perfect 3-minute pop song’, taking CBC Radio One’s "Song Of The Week”. Several music award nominations later, the band remains in regular rotation on Bravo! TV and CBC while topping campus radio charts, and appearing on commercial airwaves in Japan, hitting #85 on the Tokio Top 100 and #38 on FM North Wave. During 2013 and 2014, Jessica has successfully toured across Canada and Japan, where she was on a music magazine cover and has distribution. She is now looking to take her unique sound and presentation to new markets.
Jessica’s unprecedented take on the Japanese koto (13-stringed harp), her exceptional guitar work, and signature songwriting are innovative and refreshing, earning The ‘Few main stage performances at festivals worldwide. Stuart exhibits a pitch-perfect vocal sensibility reminiscent of Joni Mitchell, with terrific 3-part harmonies onstage, earning the group a spot on music industry and media’s must-see list.
The ‘Few’s instrumentation is one-of-a-kind, and Stuart’s approach to songwriting is influenced by folk, soul, rock and jazz, while creating a distinctive new sound that has earned the trio main stage performances at some of Canada’s top festivals (North By Northeast, Canadian Music Week, TD Toronto Jazz Festival, Islands Folk Festival, Vancouver Chutzpah! Festival, to name a few). The band also received two 2012 Toronto Independent Music Award nominations (Best Live Performance, Best Recording), and continues to enjoy their songs and videos in regular rotation on CBC Radio and Bravo! TV.
