SONGWRITERS JENNY ALLEN & LESLIE ALEXANDER “LOVE’M OR LEAVE’M”
Leslie Alexander and folk-fest favorite Jenny Allen are joining forces this spring, test-driving songs which will appear on highly anticipated new discs from both artists this fall.
With three acclaimed independent releases under her belt and another on the way, Alexander recently returned from a two-month North American winter tour opening for Jane Siberry. When fellow ex-pat Albertan Jenny Allen turned up on the bill in Vancouver, along with her band the Fates, the two joined Jane to sing along with her famous encore “Calling All Angels,” and later cooked up the idea of supporting each on tour this spring.
With fans stretching across Canada and far into the States, Allen has opened for remarkable artists including Taj Mahal and Shawn Colvin. She’s also released two roots-folk independent CDs, “Something to Say,” and “If I Fall,” both of which received rave reviews.
Like Alexander, Allen is well known for winning over audiences with raw candor and goofy wit as well as direct, emotional songwriting and performance. Delivering everything from flat-out folk rock’n roll to more intimate fare, original music and select covers, this is a rare chance to catch two of Western Canada’s finest singer-songwriters together for one night only!
