Biography
Vancouver folk-pop songwriter and singer Frazey Ford is best known as a member, along with Samantha Parton and Trish Klein, of the Be Good Tanyas, who specialized in a blend of old-timey folk, country, and blues. The Be Good Tanyas released a debut album, Blue Horse, in 2001, following it with Chinatown in 2003 and Hello Love in 2006, and garnered high critical praise for both their recorded work and their fun, impressive live performances on the folk and bluegrass circuits. Ford released a debut solo album, Obadiah, co-produced by Ford and multi-instrumentalist John Raham at his Vancouver recording studio, in 2010.
More on Frazey Ford
“There was so much change in the air—all the things that people get really excited about in the ’60s. My parents were on the run from the Vietnam War and had escaped into communes in Canada where my sister and I were born. It was a crazy, adventurous time for everybody.”
Frazey Ford describes that era as “a time that had no definition,” yet its effect on her family defined so much of who she became, both as an artist and a person. Whether it was her family’s emigration to Canada in the ’70s (where Frazey was born) or exploring Asia with her mother and sister in the ’80s, Ford is a soul well traveled. Best known throughout the last 10 years as a member of the critically acclaimed Vancouver trio The Be Good Tanyas, Ford is now ready to tell her own story with a solo album she describes as being “moved by motherhood, earth and land.” Obadiah is a collection of songs hand-carved by the hardships and exaltations of life, and stained with the rich colors of soul and folk music that fueled artists like Joni Mitchell, Ann Peebles, Neil Young, and Donny Hathaway. After a period of stillness, it’s the sound of Ford finding herself once again.
