RCE is delighted to present the Vancouver-based Dalannah and Owen on November 5 at 8pm at the Orpheum Annex, the second concert in their 2015/16 Trier Series. The blues duo have created a deliciously
simple album "Been Around a While" that throws back to the heyday of classic blues artists while
pushing the boundaries of the genre with a modern twist.
Since the early summer release of their debut
recording, the duo has received accolades from reviewers
around the globe and extensive airplay on commercial, campus and community
radio here in Canada and worldwide.
Here's just a sample of the stellar reviews:
“Dalannah and Owen know what
they are doing, and absolutely have the perfect mixture of soul, power, and
emotion that it takes to put together an excellent blues album.” Canadian Beats
“Here the pair do something to blues that's brave and different, in a field
that is way too often dominated by the same old same old…This is all about
listening to two strong talents finding the possibilities in each song.” Top 100 Canadian Singles
“Dalannah and Owen pretty much break the mould on their first release
together. As a duo of only vocals and electric bass guitar, the combination
ought to be light on entertainment value over the course of a full-length
album, but this wizened couple makes every track shine in one way or
another." Winnipeg Free Press
"The combination of an expressive voice and a jazzy seven-string bass
guitar is unusual, but what Dalannah and Owen do on this debut album is worth
discovering. Each track is a different, exceptional experience. There's real
musical talent here!" Rootstime (Belguim)
