ABOUT THE ARTISTS
Colin Fisher:
The ever-curious Colin Fisher has a been a major presence in Canada’s music community for more than twenty years—particularly in more experimental and improvisational circles. Nothing short of a guitar virtuoso, he also wields saxophone, drums, and various other instruments with similarly refined musicality, vivid textural imagination, and sometimes feral abandon.
Fisher has collaborated with Anthony Braxton, Brandon Lopez, Daniel Carter, Joe McPhee, William Parker, Laraaji, Gerry Hemmingway, Fred Frith, Jaime Branch, Caribou and many more.
David Lord:
Guitarist and composer David Lord has been described as “a six-string anomaly, a genuine diamond in the rough” (Bill Milkowski) and as someone who “weaves true magic with his music” (Babysue). Lord has collaborated with Jeff Parker, Chad Taylor, Billy Mohler, Charles Rumback, Devin Hoff and others.
His music has been featured in publications such as Downbeat, Dusted Magazine, A Closer Listen, All About Jazz, Under the Radar, Bandcamp Daily, Alternative Press, Magnet and Tiny Mix Tapes.
His most recent album, Forest Standards Vol 3, was named #1 on Strange Currency’s Best Music of 2023.
