Daniel ROA
Winnipeg pop singer-songwriter Daniel ROA is preparing the release of his second album, Hyperbole, accompanied by a video and brand new show.
The new show for Hyperbole has us rediscovering Daniel ROA’s inner performer. A show with a capital ‘S’, in it, you’ll find a bit of everything — multi-instrumentations, projections, choreography and much more! As always, Daniel promises to deliver a saucy groove, with energy, fun, and an ever-present wink. The album release will take place in three cities, all with a full presentation of the new show. Firstly, in his native Winnipeg, on November 24th, he will be at the CCFM in a double-bill with Alex Nevsky of Montreal. Secondly, Daniel will be in Ottawa on the Fourth Stage of the National Arts Centre on November 30th. And finally, he will wrap up with a third release party in Montreal on December 1st at O Patro Vys. The album will be available on iTunes as of November 24th.
The second opus of the franco-manitoban artist comes on the heels of the success of his first album, Le nombril du monde, where Daniel took us on a foray into his spirited musical universe, seasoned with lyrics stamped with intelligence, humour, and candor. The album was rewarded with a Western Canadian Music Award – Album francophone in 2009, as well as a Trille Or Award – Artiste de l’Ouest canadien par excellence in 2011. With exceptional musicians by his side, he has toured extensively across Canada, in Switzerland, and in France, meanwhile making time to write scores for theatre and engaging in studio recordings as a free-lance musician.
It is by a pure love of language and its infinite richness that Daniel ROA gave life to the first single of the new album. The song, Alphabête, tells an almost esoteric story of a songwriter who willfully delves into the inner depths of his dictionary, searching for that ever evasive mot juste. The song is yours to discover, as is the hilarious video which gives us insight into the mind of Daniel ROA.

Manitoba-based folk-pop trio KIN released today their first video, for their new song Coastal Friend. Directed by Randy Frykas, and featuring the band, as well as bassist and friend Julian Bradford, the video is the culmination of several months of work by several people.

The release comes on the heels of the success of his first album, Le nombril du monde, where Daniel took us on a foray into his spirited musical universe, seasoned with lyrics stamped with intelligence, humour, and candor. The album was rewarded with a Western Canadian Music Award – Outstanding Francophone Album in 2009, as well as a Trille Or Award – Outstanding Western Canadian Artist in 2011. With exceptional musicians by his side, he has toured extensively across Canada, in Switzerland, and in France, meanwhile making time to write scores for theatre and engaging in studio recordings as a free-lance musician.

An artist to make you dance, an artist to make you think… Daniel ROA moves us to take a fresh look at the world with all its wretchedness and beauty, and it is in this search for lightness that Daniel ROA invites us to join him. With this fall’s release of his newest album, Hyperbole, Daniel ROA promises to take us away with his groove, his energy, his ubiquitous joy, and, as always, a wink and a gun.
