': ,: :, : Born and raised in the bright and booming metropolis of Toronto, : :' his heart led him out of the city and into Prince Edward ': ,: County, where country living and a decade of working on farms :, : gave him the time and space to hone his songwriting skills. His : :' music nods to all manner of troubadours who rambled down ': ,: similar paths throughout historyùhe nods slyly to the legendary :, : blues singers who inspired him, offers a soft and insightful : :' touch with his folk songs, and stomps and swaggers through ': ,: soulful rock ænÆ roll. But Jeremie Albino is a natural and an :, : original, created by an alchemy that favours, above all else, : :' that most mysterious and coveted of qualities: heart. And his ': ,: wildly impressive debut, Hard Time, overflows with it. :, : : :' Albino grew up immersing himself in early field recordings and ': ,: the music of legends like Lightning Hopkins and Skip James, :, : first learning to play the harmonica and then moving on to : :' guitar. On Hard Time, he pulls just as much as he needs from ': ,: his influences, reverent to the musical forms that made him but :, : actively sculpting his own voice. The easy groove of ôAmeliaö : :' sets toes tapping to its fantastical love story as Albino tries ': ,: to bridge time and space to connect with the ill-fated aviation :, : pioneer Amelia Earhart over warm organ swells. ôLilac : :' Wayöùinspired by his motherÆs love for the pale violet ': ,: flowerùenvisions breezy country roads with blooming strings and :, : nods to Jeff BuckleyÆs sparse, early New York cafΘ recordings. : :' With ôHard Time,ö he shifts gears into bristling dive bar rock ': ,: ænÆ roll, as a narrator behind bars wonders whether his :, : partner-in-crime will be there smiling, leaning on the hood of a : :' car, to pick him up at the end of his sentence. The dusty, ': ,: understated ôShipwreck,ö complete with the sound of creaking :, : wooden floorboards, takes listeners a thousand leagues under the : :' sea and back to 1883, witnesses to a lonesome grave. His ': ,: storytelling reaches its peak on the doomy ôWildfire,ö offering :, : up a tale where Mad Tom and his old hound dog stand defiant in : :' the face of flames creeping up the hill, determined to stop the ': ,: destruction with his sheer force of will. :, : : :' The sagas of these out-sized characters and the vivid imagery ': ,: they pass through are given proper treatment by the peaks and :, : valleys of AlbinoÆs music, dynamic enough to conjure something : :' light as the sway of flowers in the wind, or the grandeur of an ': ,: apocalyptic storm. ôTheyÆre stories I wrote that came from :, : daydreams,ö Jeremie explains, ôabout life, love, people, and : :' another time.ö ': ,: :, : Not only is Hard Time JeremieÆs debut album, but it also : :' represents a slew of firsts for the young songwriter. Before ': ,: embarking on the recording, heÆd never been in a studio, played :, : with a band, or worked with a producer. JeremieÆs earthy : :' Americana has never been laid to tape until now. And Hard Time ': ,: sounds just as untouched by pretension as youÆd expect from a :, : musician who got to this point simply by letting his heart lead : :' the way. The first recordings were laid down at the Bombshelter ': ,: in Nashville with producer Andrija Tokic (Alabama Shakes, Hurray :, : For The Riff Raff, Langhorne Slim), and the rest was finished : :' off at Union Sound in Toronto with the guidance of AlbinoÆs ': ,: manager and producer Crispin Day :, : : :' ': : ' '.. ..' .. . :........... . . . . ............: . . ______________ ______________ \ / \ / \ / Shout out to all our homies from: \ / \ / \ / \ / iPC BOSS HiT2000 1way UKi i8 RNS \ / \ / RAGEMP3 MANDY DV8 pLAN9 BUTT \ / \ / \ / \/ ____ ____ \/ \ / F A N G \ / \/ 2 0 1 9 \/
