“Bruce T Carroll wrote Nobody Knows last year while on the road to campaign in the national election in the critical battleground states of Pennsylvania and Georgia….many hours behind the wheel driving through the small towns and sprawling fields of rural America afforded much time to reflect upon the dichotomy between the haves and the have-nots, the young and the old, and the mundane  vs the ethereal …. Nobody Knows is his reflection upon the exalted natural beauty of America and the fragility of life herein…”

The First Bird To Sing…..I’ve been carrying this song around with me for 40 years, since the unexpected passing of my brother by his own hand during a tortured adolescence that carried him, in a flood of drugs and alcohol, to the shores of self-annihilation. That same flood carried me in the same direction for ten years thereafter,   through three hospitalizations, a ruined career, a failed marriage and a damaged family, until, by the grace of God, in 1991, I washed up on a different shore, in a different land (metaphorically speaking), and set about putting my life in order. I have mostly succeeded, though certainly not without difficulty.   

This album, though on balance more personal than political, was conceived and largely written during the first year of the pandemic and the Great Election of 2020, and so has an unavoidable political tinge in places. Some of it, notably the songs Nobody Knows and Don’t Take Love Lightly, were written during my trips back and forth to PA and GA in late 2020 and early 2021 while working on the ground to unseat the atavists that sought to continue their rule. Some of it was written after losing my mother, my greatest friend and inspiration, the indomitable spirit who was Francine Arlette Bouillon Carroll, at the ripe old age of 99, in June 2020. I dedicate this album to her. And to resisters everywhere.

With driving rhythms, soaring vocals and waling blues harp, Easy comes bouncing in evoking memories of a perfect summer road trip. Using the Detroit River as her muse, singer-songwriter, Karen Morand explores the arc of life, overcoming, letting go and leaving worry behind. The road ahead is unknown, but open and hopeful with the stereo turned up loud.

“Songwriter Karen Morand casts power to stir the storm in your soul and part the dark clouds hovering over your heart.  Karen drives the engine through songs that clang, grind and chug with bold defiance, shaken faith and cryptic warnings; breathing steam around embraces of the wounded and outcast.”  Songstress and CJAM radio host Allison Brown 

“Karen Morand – My God, you can sing!!” Les Palango, station manager (“The Hawk”) 

"Windsor based singer-songwriter Karen Morand writes wonderful warm earthy songs that speak to your heart and leave you begging to spend time in her company. Equally comfortable as a solo artist with a guitar or playing with her wonderful band "Bosco", her performances are definitely not to be missed." Jan Hall, host of Folk Roots Radio

One more scroll, one more mouthful, one more guilty pleasure - there are things we do to deal with the hard parts of life. It becomes a problem when “just one more” isn't enough. Never Enough is a love song. It reaches into the heart of addictions and calls out the true soul of a person.

“a standout in the crowded field of solo singer-songwriters” Danny Sullivan (Blue Skies Music Festival)

”I believe she is on her way to becoming an artist who will be a force on the Canadian music scene.” platinum award winning musician Linda McRae

"Grandfather Walks is an homage to my grandfather, a Frenchman aptly named Voltaire, as seen through the eyes of my mother, Francine, who passed away at the age of 99 about a year ago. Voltaire was revered by his daughter and sadly died when she was only 16 years old. He lived on in her heart and through her warm remembrances of him, which she imparted to me. The memories her father inspired fueled my loving and imaginative depiction of the old man, the patriarch, the bon vivant, world traveler, and loving father to three little girls. In this song, and in the mind's eye, the grandfather and the father become one, a powerful archetype of strength and goodness."

Commonplaces is inspired by the centuries-old practise of commonplacing or recording wisdom and ideas for later recollection in notebooks that bear the name "commonplace."

Mary Lee Partington & Ed Sweeney tell stories of immigrants, farmers and factory workers during 19th & 20th century America, where self-educated mill girls earn their own keep, an orphan endures to tell her tale, where old ballads have taken root and where migrants go farther west.

Singer-songwriter Jim Standard will release his sophomore album Color Outside The Lines, on October 16th. Teaming up again with Grammy-nominated hitmaker and producer Kip Winger and Afghn Whigs guitarist Jon Skibic, this effort also features the legendaary Peter Yarrow (of Peter, Paul & Mary) and his daughter Bethany Yarrow on two songs. 

From social justice to history to humor, the common thread among Standard's songs is their resonance--emotional, musical, and melodic. Throughout the 11-song album, such indelible Standard originals as "Same River", "Witness Protection", "One Time In A Row" and "The Opium Wards" convey wisdom and curiosity, showcasing the artist's uncanny ability to pinpoint fundamental emotional truths.

“When I was growing up, my dad was in radio. We lived in the suburbs, and the holiday music I grew up with was the popular music of radio, television and the movies.

Today we still know and sing those “pop” songs because they were the best songs of their time and now are part of our holiday celebrations.”

"Rebuild," is a ballad, a metaphor song that compares the biblical story of Chanukah to our current world in which we need to rebuild after a period of fighting. It is not outwardly political. It does, however, reflect the current exhaustion we all feel.
