about

That September, standing on that shore, I could almost hear Father Jean de Brébeuf crying out, “was my life worth it?” Who really knows the power of an inspired song and a sacrificial life? All we can do is give what we have in faith and trust God for the rest.

lyrics

on the shores of Georgian Bay the wind kisses my face/I feel the sand tickle my toes/I hear the Lord say, son, rest in my embrace/let me pour my peace into your soul/listening to the legends of a people’s separation/from their creator the
great and mighty Chief/how the spirits of the earth bound them all with fear/but the people longed for the day of their release/I remember three hundred years ago/when Jean de Brébeuf sang his Huron Carol/how the villagers all stood to join that gospel song/singing, Jesus is the one we’ve waited for/so much has gone wrong since we first heard that song/many closets have been built for the secrets/but the release that was hoped for has now come in full force/First Peoples lead nations to Jesus/ as the cedar tree grows deep rooted and tall/so will all who will call on his name/and the curse that brought blindness we now put behind us to walk in his peace all our days/this land is waiting for a song/Father Jean is gone his blood is crying out/a song a song waiting for a song /they that sow in tears shall reap with shouts of joy/out of the blood of my veins let come a song

about

Roots rock with percussive guitars and fierce drums anchoring the energetic folk songs. Their current release “Oil” ... more (Produced by Alan Shacklock - Roger Daltrey, The Alarm, Meatloaf, Jeff Beck, Mike Oldfield) and the French version “Huile de paix” have received high praise from listeners and critics who say it sounds like a crazy blend of The Chieftans, Dave Mathews Band and The Who. less
