SUMMARY:The North Sound
DESCRIPTION:For The North Sound\, songs are a declaration of joy\, a hallmark of yearning\, and a tender tale of honesty. Yet amidst the rawness\, trials and tribulations\, there are notes of hope and happiness. This is the duo at their best: sharing stories in the way they know how. \nForged deep in Treaty 7 Territory\, where the prairies rush towards the foothills\, The North Sound is a partnership between lead singer\, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Forrest Eaglespeaker and vocalist and composer Nevada Eaglespeaker. A fusion of authentic voices\, crisp harmonies and rollicking/burgeoning indie folk-roots rock\, the duo — a married couple — weave and wend through themes of family and connection\, recovery and addiction. As partners who play and write together\, the themes of family\, love and sacrifice are inescapable — in their shared sojourn\, Forrest and Nevada have forged the core of a rock solid collaboration. And at the heart and soul of the group is an incredible story of two people who stuck it out and found a collective voice to breathe life into tribulations and traditions.
