:: Release Notes:
::
:: From the Great White North comes sounds of the south. A
:: throwback to when helpings of blues, funk, soul and country
:: made up what was called Rock n' Roll, King Street Healers
:: continue the tradition of melding together various forms of
:: traditional American music to create groove-laden roots
:: music. Hailing from Regina, Canada, 'The Healers' have been
:: playing and creating music together since 1998. The band has
:: recently released their sophomore album, Signs & Wonders, a
:: follow up to 2001's successful Backyard Mind.
::
:: "I think we kind of work for the music and we work for the
:: love we have for music," stated guitarist Jason Fiske in a
:: recent interview. Along with singer/guitarist Jeff Mertick,
:: drummer Bob Dreher and bassist Dan Thorson, the band has
:: generated a significant buzz in their local scene as well as
:: the broader indie scene. Critics have compared their sound to
:: diverse acts such as The Black Crowes, James Brown, Ben
:: Harper and Sly & The Family Stone. Whatever their style may
:: be, it's generating noise that critics are calling
:: "alarmingly fresh, organic and vital" (Prairie Dog Magazine),
:: "hip shakin' righteousness" (Jambase) and "really fun"
:: (Indieville.com). The band has opened for numerous national
:: acts, such as The New Meanies, Wide Mouth Mason and David
:: Wilcox to name a few. They've also performed at numerous
:: festivals with both independent and internationally renowned
:: artists.
