 3-02-20\n\n Singer-songwriter Colyn Cameron of Wake Owl has been immersed 
 in the world of music for the past 10 years. Now based in Vancouver\, Brit
 ish Columbia and Portland\, Oregon\, Cameron was originally born and raise
 d in southern California. 'In the beginning I was mostly into rhyme stuff/
 hip hop\,' Cameron notes\, 'I wrote rap basically. I used to go around the
  school ground rapping my verses to whoever would listen. Then about seven
  years ago I picked up a guitar and taught myself basic stuff and immediat
 ely began writing songs.' After graduation Cameron trained in organic agri
 culture at Emerson College in England\; worked on different farms througho
 ut the U.K.\, Germany\, Chile\, and Canada\; and traveled the world. Camer
 on found his journeys to be a catalyst for writing songs. 'My writing proc
 ess is always changing. I usually find the most inspiration after these lo
 ng periods of not having too much of my own space\, touring or traveling. 
 A lot just tends to pour out rather quickly\,' he reflects. Upon returning
  to Vancouver\, Cameron spent some time playing in bands before deciding t
 o record the songs he had written after his journey\, and thus began the W
 ild Country EP. 'With this EP I was really focused on just creating record
 ings I could be proud of and felt connected to as a group of songs. I want
 ed to capture and represent\, in all its instrumentation and arrangement\,
  what those songs mean to me\,' he says. The result is a five-song EP that
  harvests raw\, honest\, emotion through Cameron's words and melodies.\nFo
 r almost a decade Andy Shauf has been building a cult following that hangs
  on his every word. The dark storytelling and bold gift of melody he displ
 ays in his recordings and intimate live shows have drawn comparisons to th
 e early work of Paul Simon\, Elliott Smith\, and Neil Young. On November 6
 \, Shauf released his first full-length record in over four years\, The Be
 arer of Bad News. It is also undeniably his best\, capturing a journey of 
 long winter nights spent writing and hot summer days spent on the road wit
 h friends. Recorded alone in the basement\, the album is 11 songs built on
  a weathered piano\, a warm guitar\, a clarinet\, and the melody of a brok
 en heart. At its heart is Shauf's one-of-a-kind voice and dark knack for s
 tory. It eventually found its way to producer and engineer Jonathan Anders
 on\, who gave the songs a humble trademark polish and helped them find a w
 ay to speak for themselves.
