    "possibly the most Canadian album on Canada's most historic instrument." TORONTO STAR

    “Voyageur In Song” is a concept record, each song inspired by unique pieces from the Six String Nation guitar, nick-named Voyageur. The project came about after hearing the Six String Nation project creator Jowi Taylor’s moving multimedia presentation and being given the opportunity to spend time writing songs on Voyageur. The album artwork features an original painting from Paul W Thompson depicting the pieces in the guitar written about on the record.

lyrics

Pain & beauty
Let it all move right through me
Good tales, sad tales
Benevolence & blackmail
No excuses
Tell me what the awkward truth is

Fighters, lovers
Singing at one another
Words expanding
A cultural understanding
Peace and noise in
All of the different voices

Hidden in this storying guitar
Écoute les chansons du Voyageur
Les chansons du Voyageur

Wood and bone,
Fretted metal & stone
Bridge and saddle
Time that’s meant to travel
Shame & sorrow
Hanging on “old tomorrow”

Answers, questions
Mother of invention
Tough vibrations
Reconciliation
Gently tethered
Strike a chord together

Listen to this storying guitar
Écoute les chansons du Voyageur
Les chansons du Voyageur

When you cry, I cry
Through the strings and tears
I hear everything, everything

Written in this storying guitar
Écoute les chansons du Voyageur
Les chansons du Voyageur
Pain & beauty let it all move right through me (repeat x4)
