BEACHFIRES: A Fearless Hybrid of Folk, Blues and Atmospheric Electro-Pop from Award-Winning BC Artist T. Nile “T. Nile has been turning some heads in this country and abroad with her brazen blend of folk roots and pop and everything in between. Her music jumps out at you while you listen to it, and in the most simple terms imaginable, is staggeringly good" - Tom Power, CBC From her early days in a Galiano Island cabin on the coast of British Columbia, to the pulsing dance clubs of Goa India, award-winning Canadian songwriter T. Nile has blurred musical boundaries, fusing the traditionally conflicting styles of electro-pop and folk-roots. Beachfires, out on April 26th 2019, is a collection of songs that reveals a fearless expedition into the musical realms of electronic, folk, blues and and atmospheric pop, capturing the listener’s heart and mind simultaneously. “When writing this album, I did things a little differently,” she explains, “the album evolved out of improvisations that happened while jamming with Brent Sadowick. We were playing around with a bunch of instruments, having fun. Brent recorded our improv sessions and in several instances, as with “Dangerously Free”, “Use Your Heart” and “Note to Self”, the vocal take that ended up on the album is the original recording. These recordings capture the creative ‘moment of conception’.” The musical bravery expressed in Beachfires, was ingrained in T. Nile at an early age; she spent a good part of her childhood and teens touring throughout North America and Australia with her father, a multi-instrumentalist sidewalk entertainer. The lifestyle took root and, since her first LP "At My Table", her songs have captured the hearts of audiences across the globe. Her newest offering Beachfires, is a diverse, unpredictable and vulnerable record. It’s a strident and honest record - it’s music to dance to and explore with - Beachfires is a soulful and dynamic Electro-Folk dream, full of lyricism. BEACHFIRES TRACKLIST: 1.

Nile and Sadowick ABOUT SO HIGH (Focus Track and Single) “So High”, the second single from T. Nile’s “Beachfires” LP, was musically inspired by 80s ballads: “It was the first song I wrote after my father passed away.” She says. “ It expresses how I feel his presence whenever I'm alone in nature on our home of Galiano Island. I wrote it while filled with a profound grief at his loss, but also elation at how much I still feel him in every aspect of my life. When I sing it now, the song brings up a simultaneously soaring and melancholy feeling. His essence has expanded beyond the boundaries of his physical being, and he is now always with me on the inside.” * All songs written and produced by T. Nile and Brent Sadowick (except for Big Heart: produced by Brent Sadowick and T. Nile, written by T. Nile) ** This project is funded in part by FACTOR, the Government of Canada and Canada’s private radio broadcasters.

Nile is a radiant and multi-layered complexity; inspiring and inspired; accessible yet luminous; leaving you wanting more.” – Jeffrey Morgan, authorized biographer of both Alice Cooper and Iggy Pop & The Stooges “Like a ray of sunshine on a cold day”– Sook-Yin Lee “T. Nile’s creativity and diverse talents shine as she channels a banjo-plucking love-child of Beck and Lana Del Rey.” – Beatroute Awards Best New Artist- Canadian Folk Music Awards Best Vocalist- Canadian Folk Music Awards (nominee) Best Roots Song- Independent Music Awards Best Vocalist- Canadian Folk Music Awards (nominee) Peak Performance Project (finalist) Grassy Hill Kerrville New Folk Competition (finalist) UPCOMING SHOWS // TOUR May 30 — Beachfires Album Release, Rogue Folk Club, Vancouver July 26-28 — Islands Folk Festival, Duncan BC August 9-11 — Kingsville Folk Festival, Kingsville ON August 14 — The Burdock, Toronto August 15 — Melville United Church, Ivan ON August 16-18 — Summerfolk Festival, Kelso Beach Park, Owen Sound ON SOCIALS: Website: https://tnile.com/ Instagram: @tnile Facebook: @tnile Twitter: @tnile Tumblr: http://tingleandspark.tumblr.com LINKS: Stream on Spotify here: https://open.spotify.com/album/5blcFXVN5keyYN4h9L5SNo High resolution album art is here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Tm5bz4S3mu0Yntr7odd0QttCW26V0BBz PRE-ORDER → https://itunes.apple.com/ca/album/beachfires/1457721548?app=itunes&ign-mpt=uo%3D4
