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

Rose Cousins

Rose Cousins’ songwriting plumbs the depths of the human condition. Her work has garnered her two JUNO Awards (2013’s We Have Made a Spark & 2021’s Bravado), two Canadian Folk Music Awards, eleven East Coast Music Awards and one Grammy nomination (2018’s Natural Conclusion), along with praise from the likes of the CBC, No Depression, LA Times, Associated Press, Billboard, Folk Alley, and NPR, who raved “Cousins’ disarmingly fluid vocal tone has the ability to convey the most internalized feelings without an ounce of fuss.” Over the years, she has shared stages with Patty Griffin, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Jann Arden, Kathleen Edwards, Joe Henry and Anais Mitchell, and her music has fittingly underscored scenes from notable TV shows including Grey’s Anatomy, Fire Country, Batwoman and Heartland.
