Basia Bulat playing select U.S. Tour Dates in February and March! 18 Feb 2010

Basia Bulat has been covering a lot of ground in her native Canada.  Luckily we are not forsaken, as Basia will be performing select U.S. Tour Dates in the next couple of months!   Her most recent release, Heart Of My Own  just came out on Rough Trade.

"Heart of My Own" bubbles with quiet intensity: Understated guitar and banjo, minute string arrangements, a dampened floor tom and distant multi-part vocal harmonies place the focus on Bulat's unwavering voice, a single powerful element in a beautiful but unforgiving landscape." NPR - Song Of The Day

"... it's her rare, extraordinary voice that makes her a fresh find in the notoriously musty folk-pop bin. Graceful and incandescent, confident but approachable, her alto's the aural equivalent of the perfect party host who makes every guest not only welcome, but certain they're the most important person in the room."  Pitchfork

"Who's singing in the new Subaru Outback commercial in which a man loses his sunglasses, then finds them in the hood of his sweatshirt? And what's the song?  The song is Before I Knew, by Canadian singer/songwriter Basia Bulat. Her new album, Heart of My Own, showcases Bulat's wide-ranging influences, from soul music to American folk."  USA Weekend

"This 25-year-old Canadian singer-songwriter has one of those powerful, lilting, “Who is that?’ voices that immediately grabs your attention both with its technique and its unbridled emotion. Her new album, “Heart of My Own,” is a worthy follow-up to her 2007 debut, “Oh, My Darling,” showcasing both that amazing voice and her open-hearted songwriting."  Wisconsin State Journal
