What is a Spark Bird? It's the bird that changes everything. It's the bird that inspires an ongoing curiosity and passion for these magical creatures. And in Emilie-Claire's case, the birds that helped changed the course of her life, and also inspired her to make a new album after five years (and a pandemic).
"Being musicians, it’s almost impossible for us not to hear rhythm and melody everywhere. Birds are nature’s musicians. We feel a kinship!
When that yellow winged cacique tapped on my window, I felt a spark. Not just a budding bird obsession, but the curiosity and desire to see what life would be like if I spent more time in this place that makes me feel so buoyant and full of wonder.
It’s been a while since I made a record...a few years since I felt the urge to pull a collection of songs together in this way. But the birds - a constant source of joy and inspiration - have reignited my spark. For that I’m full of gratefulness.” Emilie-Claire Barlow, on "Spark Bird"
Emilie-Claire Barlow is an award winning and critically acclaimed Canadian jazz singer, arranger, record producer and voice actress. A two time Juno Award winner and six time nominee, she has released 13 self-produced albums on her own label, Empress Music Group.
