  • The Band That Became Spirit of the West Began As a Folk Trio Called Evesdropper in Vancouver Nearly 30 Years Ago. 13 Albums
    The band that became Spirit of the West began as a Folk trio called Evesdropper in Vancouver nearly 30 years ago. 13 albums later, they have achieved status as one of the most beloved ‘Legacy Artists’ in Canadian history, having proven themselves to be road-worthy, durable, having toured Canada, the US, UK and Europe consistently, building a dedicated following of fans from all over the world. They have been inducted into the Halls of Fame / Lifetime Achievement Categories by the Western Canadian Music Association and the Society of Composers and Music Publishers of Canada, and have used their inestimable charms to wheedle complimentary pints out of barmen in at least 9 countries. With four gold and two platinum albums to their credit, Spirit of the West are responsible for such songs as: ‘(And if) Venice is Sinking’, ‘Five Free Minutes’, ‘Save This House’, ‘The Crawl’ and ‘Home For a Rest’, the song that has been called Canada’s honorary national anthem:. ‘Spirituality: A Consummate Compendium’, a double CD album on Rhino Records, is the band’s most recent release and is a look back at the first 25 years of their career. The band is: John Mann, Guitarist, vocalist and charismatic front man. John is also an accomplished actor who can be seen on episodic television and movies often pretending to be an assassin, ghost, devil, redneck, spy, and other characters that simply don’t scan if you know this vegetarian peacenik. List of both big & small screen appearances as well as starring roles in live theatre far too numerous to mention here.

The recently assembled collaboration taps a deep pool of performing experience, vocal abilities and song writing talent featuring some of the province’s busiest and most accomplished blues and roots musicians. Dan Tapanila, Mark Sadlier Brown, Tim Williams, Cedric Blary, Suitcase James and John Rutherford form a rag-tag team of musical sharp shooters set on having a ball. Saturday, Sept 29/07 - JOHN MANN - Mister Mann is the solo project of Spirit of the West’s front man and songwriter John Mann. After 11 albums and countless tours of the UK, Europe and North America with Spirit, December Looms is a return to Mann’s stripped down Alt Folk roots. Mann pens beautiful melodies with emotionally honest lyrics that capture the intimate moments of his hometown of Vancouver, its occupants, the fragile details of their dysfunctional love and the loss of a city’s innocence.

  • Solo News Upcoming
    So how’s everybody’s 2018 going so far? Since it’s a rather slow news month and this is the 1st anniversary issue I’m running a special feature on page 2-3. The story of how I became a BNL fan is far from normal and more than a little bizarre so hopefully it’ll give you a laugh as well as a bit of backstory to this newsletter now it’s a year old. Aside from that I guess we’re looking forward to the rest of 2018 now. My BNL predictions, which are in no way official, probably don’t involve a new BNL album considering we got two last year but Kevin has four albums/projects in the works and just this month Jim mentioned Bros. Creeggan may make a return if they can find the time, so who knows? - Mil NEWS It’s Rock Boat time! BNL are currently at sea on Rock Boat XVIII as this issue goes out. We’ll have a full catch-up with all the details next issue. BNL will be inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame this year! Details just below. Upcoming Shining Like Aurora Borealis BBarenaked Ladies, including all current and former members, will be inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame at the 2018 Juno Awards on the 25th of March.
