Quinn Pickering is a pop and rock focused singer-songwriter, based out of New
Westminster, British Columbia. Currently 18, playing the guitar has been a
huge part of QuinnÆs life since childhood. He got his start at age 8 when he
put together his first band ôWorld Is History,ö performing live and recording
two EPÆs over the course of three years. Since that time, he has continued to
create music, focusing on developing both his musicality and his songwriting,
and he released his debut album, a solo project titled Losing This War, at
age 16 ; a project which was produced and recorded at his home studio. In the
two years since his debut Quinn has released several singles, collaborated
with various musicians and completed recording on his follow up album titled
Baby Blue with producer Larry Anschell of Turtle Studios, this time with the
support of a full band.
QuinnÆs singer-songwriter styling lends itself to capturing tone and soul
within his music in a way that becomes thoughtful and almost nostalgic, while
also retaining the bite and drive of rock and the easy and palatable appeal
of pop music. Some of his personal influences include contemporary artists
such as John Mayer, and Ed Sheeran as well as classics such as Fleetwood Mac,
Ryan Adams, and Tom Petty, and this eclectic range of influence shows in his
work. Through his use of lyricism and expert blending of melody and pacing,
he is able to paint pictures with his music, transporting listeners and
creating an experience.
Music, for Quinn, offers a way to both document and share his experiences in
life, and to tell stories that are both personal and relatable. He also loves
to mix things up, and knows the difference in quality and tone that can come
from playing solo, or with a band. Through intuition and collaboration he
decides on which option will benefit each track. For him, it is a truly
exciting part of the process to see all of the elements of a song come
together to form a finished piece. Through the collaborative sentiment that
comes from working with a band, new and exciting changes can be made to a
piece that allows it to take on a life of its own from conception to
production.
With producer Larry Anschell having credits on albums by artists such as
Pearl Jam, Sarah McLachlan, and Streetheart, Quinn has been putting his all
into his latest album Baby Blue, which is set for release September 1st 2018.
With this upcoming album and a fantastic new band Quinn is working towards
playing larger shows and hopes to reach a wider international audience. The
release of this album is a truly exciting time, and will bring to light how
much passion and dedication goes into the music that Quinn creates. He knows
that he will continue to write, create, perform and record, and invites
anyone interested to follow along on the journey.
