Frazey Ford is one of Canada's most distinctive voices-a singer-songwriter whose music defies easy categorization. Emerging as a founding member of the folk trio The Be Good Tanyas, Ford helped pioneer a roots revival in the early 2000s that blending Americana, folk, and alt-country. Her solo career has taken her into new territory.
Ford's 2010 debut 'Obadiah' introduced listeners to a more soulful, introspective side of her artistry, fusing folk with slow-burning Southern soul. She followed it with Indian Ocean in 2014, recorded in Memphis with members of Al Green legendary Hi Rhythm section.
Frazey Ford's third album, 'U kin B the Sun' (2020), is a luminous, defiant work that deals with themes of transformation, healing, and inner strength. Her lyrics speak to both personal and political awakenings, delivered with a voice that's both intimate and soaring. Whether she's channelling soul, folk, or R&B, she delivers songs that feel lived-in, real, and rooted in the complexity of human experience.
