The Wyrd Sisters

FOR A LIMITED TIME ONLY

THE 2008 TOUR SOUVENIR ENHANCED CD

"A LITTLE MORE LIGHT"



We wanted to create something that would be specific to this particular tour

- this particular group of people, these musicians and this audience at this place at this point in time. So we hauled out our first no longer reproduced 8 song EP “Leave A Little Light” (complete with background buzz), added a couple of songs from some of our very talented musicians, put in a few of our old videos and recorded brand new a cappella versions of two songs which we didn’t write but like to sing: ‘A Sailor’s Prayer’© 1978, 2002 Rod MacDonald (Blue Flute/ASCAP), www.rodmacdonald.net and ‘Mountain Song’ © Holly Near, www.hollynear.com. As we’ve never heard the official versions of these songs from the source, we hope that we have done an adequate job of reproducing them.

The Wyrd Sisters accidentally began their career in 1989 when three women (who had no previous musical experience) came together to share their 'hobby' of songwriting with each other. Their first show as The Wyrd Sisters was at the University of Winnipeg that same year. A friend asked them to share their songs at a benefit for a women's shelter soon after the U show. Mitch Podolak (founder of numerous folk organizations and festivals) heard them at that performance and asked them to play at the West End Cultural Centre. The CBC came to record that performance. and that summer they were playing at the Winnipeg Folk Festival.



TWS have not looked back from that moment. They have enjoyed performances across the continent, from folk festivals to concert halls to full symphonic backing, they have been on national and international TV and radio shows, they have five recordings, three Juno nominations, three videos (all of which received full play on CMT) and Best Group award in the folk category of the Prairie Music Awards. They have also been included on numerous compilations and have been hired to write and record theme music for video and TV shows. Much of their music, such as 'Warrior', 'The Faucet', 'Farewell to Clayoquot Sound' and 'Leave a Little Light' has been covered, recorded and sung by performers and choirs from across the globe.



The Wyrd Sisters have, like any family (and long time band), changed and evolved and grown over the years. Original founding member, principal writer and lead stage personality Kim Baryluk has remained the constant thoughout the band's existence. Like groups such as 'Sweet Honey in the Rock' and 'The Flirtations,' where members have come and gone over the decades, the band continues to create the same beautiful music and carry the same inspirational message as it always has.



International critics have recognized the original sound The Wyrd Sisters have created with a fusion of folk/jazz/pop/blues as being a uniquely Canadian sound which sets the standard for up and coming singer/songwriters.
