Ember Swift's music styles extend from jazz to funk to folk to punk. Together with band mate and co-creator Lyndell Montgomery on violin and bass, Ember weaves politics and poetics with inventive musical arrangements, taking on everything from globalization to consumer awareness to sexual politics. Touring relentlessly to all points on the compass, she is just completing her fifth Australian tour. 'The Dirty Pulse', her ninth release, is a celebration of life, the living, and the embedded hope in us all. Her passion and fury are infectious.
Based in Toronto, Layah Jane is a hearty young musician with a mission. With soulful vocals and a poetic, articulate tongue, her sound recalls Joni Mitchell, Rickie Lee Jones and Ani Difranco, with a resonance all her own. Layah is a spirited performer when she takes the stage, transporting listeners to a place where emotion is raw, reflection is deep, and revolution is not only possible, but necessary. With a relatively short twenty-four years on earth, it sounds like the world is knocking at her door. She is a DJ, entrepreneur and an award-winning songwriter.
Ember Swift and Lyndell Montgomery sound like ...
"the bilingual love child of Paul Simon and Laurie Anderson who is being raised by Joan Jett."
"Layah has created a hybrid mix of funky jazz reggae... folk pop that enters your ear like cotton candy and melts on your tongue."
- Mike Grutka, Northeast in Tune
