CBC East Coat Music Hour Song Camp

In the three days leading up to Shivering Songs, CBC East Coast Music Hour will bring together six songwriters from across Atlantic Canada to weave something entirely new. Six voices, one creative space—collaborating, experimenting, and letting new songs take shape. These songs will find their first breath on the opening night, January 23, 2025, at The Fredericton Playhouse. Looking forward to sharing that magic with you.

Artists: Rose Cousins, Julie Doiron, Wolf Castle, Jah’Mila, P’tit Bellieveau, Jake Nicoll

Julie Doiron

Ever the bountiful songwriter, Julie had been writing songs in the 9 years since her last solo record, keeping them close and waiting for it to feel right to head back into a studio. When the time came, she enlisted close and trusted friends to collaborate in the process: the uber-prolific and multi-talented Daniel Romano, superstar drummer Ian Romano, and Quebecois songwriter Dany Placard on bass. Together the quartet retreated to a cabin in the woods to record Julie’s first solo offering in 9 years. The resulting album, I Thought Of You, is every bit a return, as Julie Doiron finds her way back with new songs to enthral our hearts, while simultaneously finding her way back to herself. We live for these moments, when our dearest friends find their way back to the places they love, and we once again hear their voices rise back into our lives.
