Toronto Lindi Ortega Née Un 28 Mai Dans Les Années 1970 À Toronto En Toronto Lindi Ortega née un 28 Mai dans les années 1970 à Toronto en Ontario est une Canadienne chanteuse-compositrice qui vit maintenant dans le Tennessee, en banlieue de Nashville. Sa voix a été décrite comme un mélange de Dolly Parton, Johnny Cash, et Emmylou Harris. C’est une étoile montante de la scène Country en Amérique du Nord. Sa mère assistante de direction, d'origine Irlandaise, collectionne les disques de Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson ou Dolly Parton. Son père d'origine mexicaine est musicien et joue de la basse dans un groupe ‘’ Latino ‘’. (Ce qui explique les tendances musicales de sa fille.) Vers seize ans, Lindi emprunte une guitare à son père et s’initie à cet instrument. Après avoir maîtrisé trois accords, elle commence à écrire des chansons. Alors qu’elle suit des études au collège, elle effectue des tournées dans les clubs locaux. En tant qu'artiste indépendante, elle passe près d'une décennie sur la scène musicale de Toronto, avec la publication de deux albums et d’un EP. La seule salle qui programme de la country Music à Toronto est celle du ‘’The Dakota Tavern’’, dans laquelle Lindi s’est produite plusieurs fois. Son répertoire musical est lié au style Rock alternatif, aux musiques acoustiques et folkloriques. Elle chante et joue de la guitare, du piano et de l’ukulélé. Elle sort son premier album ‘’ The Taste of Forbidden Fruit ‘’ en Janvier 2001. De cet album, la chanson ‘’ Nothing At All’’ a été utilisée dans la campagne publicitaire en ligne pour la ‘’ Dove Campaign for Real Beauty ’’. Son deuxiéme album ‘’ Fall From Grace Was ‘’ voit le jour en Février 2007 et son troisième ‘’ Little Red Boots ‘’ sort en Juin 2011; la majeure partie de l'enregistrement a été réalisé sur trois jours, au ‘’House Of Blues Studio’’ à Nashville. En 2012, elle est nominée comme meilleure artiste de l’année ainsi que pour l’album ‘’Little Red Boots ‘’ sorti sous le label ‘’ Last Gang Records ‘’ par Juno. (The Juno Awards sont des prix décernés par l’industrie et les médias liés à la musique, au Canada.) Notons qu’en 2008, un EP appelé ‘’The Drifter’’, avait été repris par Interscope Records filiale de Cherrytree Records, et lui avait apporté une notoriété qui lui a permis de concrétiser une tournée au Royaume-Uni. Fin 2010 et début 2011, Lindi fait la première partie des concerts de Kevin Costner et de son groupe de rock country le ‘’Band Modern West’’. Elle fait de nombreuses tournées en tant que choriste pour Brandon Flowers; le chanteur de The Killers, ou encore avec Raul Malo (le chanteur du groupe ‘’The Mavericks’’).En Décembre 2011, elle quitte le Canada et s’installe à Nashville. Lindi surnommée "Indie Lindi’’, est actuellement sous contrat avec ‘’Last Gang Records’’ label sous lequel elle publie trois albums, le plus récent étant ‘’ Tin Star ‘’en Octobre 2013, un mélange de blues, de folk et Rockabilly. Elle participe à des spectacles télévisés sur The Tonight Show, un talk-show américain diffusé depuis 1954, en fin de soirée, sur la chaîne de télévision américaine NBC présenté par Jay Leno. La Flèche d’Or – Paris Lindi captive le public par sa voix chaude et puissante; elle parcourt les États-Unis, le Mexique mais aussi l’Europe: Royaume-Uni, Allemagne, Italie, Espagne et Mexique. Elle vient en France et passe au cabaret la ’’Flèche d’Or ‘’ à Paris le 21 mars 2013. Elle nous dit : - Mon style, c’est un peu à la ‘’Calamity Jane ‘’. Au départ, je suis très fan de Wonder Woman avec ses bottes rouges. J’en voulais aussi, pour avoir des supers pouvoirs. Un jour, je me suis retrouvée à Nashville avec mon manager. Dans le premier magasin où je suis entrée, il y avait ces bottes. Comme c’était le jour de mon anniversaire, mon manager me les a offertes, il est comme ça ! Après, j’ai effectué une tournée en première partie du groupe de Kevin Costner et tout le monde me parlait de mes bottes. J’en ai fait une chanson : ‘’ Little Red Boots’’. Je dois faire ce que je peux pour survivre; la musique est la seule chose qui me maintient en vie. J’adore Hank Williams et en lisant sa biographie dans le livre ‘’Lovesick Blues’’ je suis tombée sur des trucs vraiment intéressants. J’ai été fascinée car j’ai trouvé beaucoup d’informations sur les débuts de la Country Music et j’ai découvert que Hank a été influencé par un homme du nom de T-Tot, aussi connu comme Rufus Payne, (T Tot était un musicien de blues et son surnom "T-Tot’’ vient du fait qu'il buvait régulièrement une boisson faite d’un mélange d'alcool et de thé partout où il allait.) J’ai constaté qu’il y avait un lien entre la Country Music et le Blues, donc j'ai commencé à écouter beaucoup de musique blues par des chanteurs tels que : Robert Johnson, Lead Belly, Lightnin' Hopkins, John Lee Hooker. Cela a influencé mon écriture et le blues est apparu dans mes mélodies et les accords. En ce qui concerne la chanson ‘’ Murder Of Crows’’ je pense qu'il est bien connu que je suis une grande fan de Johnny Cash; j’aime ses ballades, cette ambiance comme à "Folsom Prison," et c’est peut-être de là que vient mon intérêt pour le macabre, le sombre, d’où le titre de cette chanson.’’ Où allons-nous trouver Lindi dans un avenir proche? Elle habite pour l’instant à Nashville, après avoir obtenu un visa de travail afin de rester aux USA. Peut-être, ira-t-elle jusqu'à la Nouvelle-Orléans ou vers Austin … Son prochain concert important aura lieu au ‘’Winnipeg Folk Festival ‘’ en Juillet 2014 au Canada. Nous allons écouter quelques chansons de Lindi : Nothing At All, All I Want For Christmas Is A Cowboy, Cigarettes and Truckstops, Little Red Boots, Murder Of Crows, Blue Christmas, Drifter, Use Me, High.

  • Fira Alla Hjärtans Dag På Malmö Live Med Altcountrystjärnan Lindi Ortega
    2015-12-08 09:20 CET Fira Alla hjärtans dag på Malmö Live med altcountrystjärnan Lindi Ortega Malmö Live öppnar famnen och bjuder in till Alla hjärtans dag. Den 14 februari 2016 firas kärleken i alla dess former med en konsert med kanadensiska countrystjärnan Lindi Ortega. Lindi Ortega har en röst som för tankarna till artister som Emmylou Harris och Dolly Parton. Hennes musik är lika varm som bitterljuv och har ett vemod som i ena stunden är rockabillyinfluerat sväng och i nästa stund finstämd singer/songwriterkänsla. Lindi Ortega skriver låtar som handlar om klassiska countryteman. Det är ensamhet, olycklig kärlek, uppbrott och åtrå - med en samtida touch. Efter att ha varit artist på Torontos musikscen under drygt tio år började omvärlden få upp ögonen för Lindi Ortega. Mot slutet av 2010 turnerade hon som körsångerska i The Killers-sångaren Brandon Flowers band med spelningar på festivaler i USA och Europa och framträdanden i talkshows som The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Lindi Ortegas följande album Little Red Boots och Cigarettes & Truckstops kritikerrosades. 2014 var hon nominerad i kategorin ”Female Artist of the Year” under Canadian Country Music Association Awards. Och senaste skivan Faded Gloryville, som kom 2015, har hyllats av såväl fans som kritiker och har fått höga placeringar på countrylistor världen över. Med influenser från artister som Leonard Cohen och Van Morrison, countryikoner som Loretta Lynn och Johnny Cash och indiestjärnor som Jeff Buckley och Cat Power kan man tro att musiken Lindi Ortega (numera bosatt i musikstaden Nashville) skapar skulle vara spretig. Men hon väver samman de olika beståndsdelarna till perfektion, något som inte minst märks live.

  • Katie Moore's Picture of Montreal on "Fooled by the Fun" | No Depression 2015-10-23, 3:59 PM
    Katie Moore & Andrew Horton Katie Moore’s music has always challenged quick categorization by laying its hat on the hooks between folk, Americana, country and 70’s Southern California. Her latest album examines her favourite aspects of the roots of country and bluegrass: harmony singing. Six More Miles (Fat Rainbow Records) is a duets album recorded with Andrew Horton, who has served as bassist in Katie’s band for over 10 years and who fronts the Firemen, a shit- kickin’ country band that has brought the honky-tonk back to Montreal. The album was recorded live over two days at Mixart Studio in Montreal by producer Warren Spicer, and features some of Montreal’s sharpest musicians, including Joe Grass (Patrick Watson, Barr Brothers) on dobro and mandolin, Sage Reynolds (Jordan Officer) on bass, and Alex Kehler (Soulwood) on fiddle and nyckelharpa – an old-time Swedish stringed instrument similar to the hurdy-gurdy but sounded with a bow instead of a wheel. Inspired by the warm sounds of classic country albums such as Merle Haggard’s Roots Vol. 1, the songs on Six More Miles are anchored by Katie and Horton’s lush vocals and emboldened with simple arrangements. Katie’s 2015 album, Fooled by the Fun was declared “one of the strongest Americana releases by a Canadian this year” by No Depression, while her 2011 album Montebello won a GAMIQ award as well as the Socan Songwriting award. This new recording, Six More Miles, showcases Katie and Andrew’s effortless harmonies. The two have been singing together, on stage and off, for years.

  • OMDC, on a Live Music Strategy for Ontario
    Introduction The Canadian music industry includes a wide range of artists and entrepreneurs who create, produce and market original Canadian music. The Canadian music industry includes musicians, songwriters, record labels, managers, agents, concert promoters and music publishers. The Canadian market is dominated by the large foreign-owned record and publishing companies but also has a strong independent sector comprising mainly small- to medium-sized record companies, publishers and management firms. The vast majority of Canadian content is commercially released by Canadian-owned and -controlled indie labels. Ontario’s music industry is the largest in Canada with the highest revenues across the board―82% of Canada’s total. These revenues come from music publishing, sound recording studios, record production and distribution.1 Moreover, the Ontario industry produces a huge number of critically acclaimed artists: 2013 Juno award nominees and winners include acts and albums produced by a long list of Ontario labels and distributors like Dine Alone, Anthem, Fontana North and Paper Bag. Ontario artists among the 2013 Juno winners include The Weeknd for Breakthrough Artist of the Year, Metric for Alternative Album of the Year and Rush for Rock Album of the Year. The prestigious Polaris Prize for 2012 was won by Arts & Crafts artist Feist, for Metals. Ontario artists also feature prominently on the shortlist for the 2012 Polaris Prize, including Cold Specks and Drake. Ontario independent labels are well represented, with Arts & Crafts and MapleMusic artists shortlisted. April 2013 saw Ontario band Rush inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame to the delight of longtime fans over the world.

  • Foley Rebecca IM 2016 Maste
    “Crazy B****”: Discriminatory Language, Radio Censorship, Regulation, and Enforcement Policies in Canada by Rebecca Irene Marie Foley A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS GRADUATE PROGRAM IN COMMUNICATION AND CULTURE YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO April 2016 Rebecca Irene Marie Foley, 2016 Abstract This thesis focuses on the censorship, or lack thereof, of discriminatory language on Canadian radio stations. In addition to purely discriminatory based language, this project also investigated the ways in which race, gender, sexuality, and ability were employed in popular music. Two data sets were analysed qualitatively and quantitatively to find that private and public radio stations in Canada are more likely to censor discriminatory or explicit content than their community station counterparts. Further, discriminatory language based on gender, is not only more likely to be contained in popular music, but it is also less likely to be censored in comparison to language based on racial or sexual orientation based discrimination. The first data set included 485 songs from the Billboard Hot 100 charts between 1985 and 2015. The second data set included 2818 songs from a six-month period (May-October 2015) of the top twenty charts from 27 different radio stations in Canada, including private, public, and community stations. Keywords: radio; broadcast policy; discrimination; popular music; Canada; ii Acknowledgements I wish to thank everyone who had a hand in helping me shape this thesis. From deep class discussions to small conversations outside of an academic environment, each interaction I had talking about my research helped me to refine, explain, and get my thoughts on paper in a relatively coherent way.
