“T. Buckley is a genuine songwriter, cast from the same mold as Guy Clark, Townes van Zandt & Steve Earle. His music is sincere, genuine, and from the heart.” -- HOWARD BILERMAN, PRODUCER
About ‘Half A Heart’ - Sitting in his living room, an older man started to share his story with me… his struggles, his memories, and his past. He told me how he was separated from his brother at a young age, and reconnected after twenty years apart. As I sat there listening to him talk about the powerful experience of reuniting, I thought about how we all have this yearning desire for companionship or connection, and how we all struggle when it’s missing. Whether you’ve lost a soul mate, family member, or been separated from a loved one, we all know the feeling, like living with Half A Heart.

About T. Buckley
T. Buckley is a singer, songwriter, and guitarist who has become a staple in the Alberta roots music scene. Over his 10 year career he has released four albums, topped radio charts, sold out shows across western Canada, held down a four-year weekly residency at one of Calgary’s best live music venues, and garnered recognition in songwriting competitions everywhere, most recently Kerrville International Songwriters Competition in Texas.
Buckley’s fifth album, Miles We Put Behind, will be released October 19th 2018. Inspired by the music of Guy Clark, James McMurtry and Lyle Lovett, Buckley recorded the album at Hotel2Tango, a 24-track analogue recording studio in Montreal. Grammy-winning musician, engineer, and producer Howard Bilerman (former drummer for Arcade Fire with over 400 production credits including Leonard Cohen) produced the album. Acclaimed musicians include: Matthew Woodley (Percussion), Mike O’Brien (Guitar, Vocals), Josh Toal (Bass, Vocals), Max Henry (Keys), Lisa Crawley (Keys - Least A Man Could Do), Katie Moore (Vocals), Chloe Albert (Vocals), Fats Kaplin (Mandolin, Pedal Steel).
Miles We Put Behind represents Buckley’s first foray into co-writing. He teamed up with some industry greats at the Banff Centre and in Nashville: Grammy-winner Don Henry (Ray Charles, Conway Twitty, Miranda Lambert and more), John Wort Hannam (JUNO nomination, Canadian Folk Music Award).
