ERNEST TROOST + BILL BOURNE (Paniolo Productions & CTMS presents)
Paniolo Productions & CTMS presents...
ERNEST TROOST & BILL BOURNE (co-bill)
ABOUT ERNEST TROOST: http://ernesttroost.com/
Ernest Troost is a singer/songwriter and a 2009 New Folk Winner at this year's Kerrville Folk Festival. His evocative songwriting style combines folk and Piedmont blues style guitar picking with timeless stories and colorful character portrayals drawn from the American past and present.
His first solo album, All the Boats Are Gonna Rise, described as what would happen if the Carter Family, Robbie Robertson, and Alfred Hitchcock wrote songs together, has been a hit with critics and fans alike:
"Troost's style and subject matter recall Dylan, Dave Alvin, and (especially for his concentration on life's darker side) Richard Thompson--enviable company indeed. Such comparisons are not lightly made: Every song here is a keeper." --Tom Hyslop, Blues Revue Magazine
Troost is also an award-winning composer of scores for films and television, including the quirky scores for the Oscar-nominated animated short Dr. DeSoto and the much-loved cult classic Tremors.
From his hipster jazz for the Sundance film Beat, to the majestic orchestra and choir for the MGM historical epic One Man's Hero, to the edgy delta minimalism of HBO's Lesson Before Dying, and the playfully eclectic score for the Campbell Scott film Crashing, Troost's music always uniquely supports the filmmaker's vision.

ABOUT BILL BOURNE: http://www.billbourne.com/
"Bourne flows with this almost indescribable soul infused with a lonesome strain of blues... This man was put on this earth to play music." - Crossroads Magazine - Tuscon, AZ
Bill was raised in a musical family in rural Alberta. When he was 2 years old, he was known to sleep behind the piano at country dances. His parents played dance music in community halls in beautiful farming country. The love of nature and of music and of people gathering for celebration has been with him for his whole life.
Bill loves to collaborate with friends (musicians). His most recent collaboration is with Jasmine Ohlhauser and Wyckham Porteous in the band 'bop ensemble'. Previous to bop ensemble, Bill collaborated with Eivør Pálsdóttir from the Faroe Islands. He produced and performed on Eivør's third solo CD, 'eivør'. The recording won double at the Danish Music Awards Folk in 2006. Other collaborations: with Alan MacLeod, Shannon Johnson, Hans Staymer and Andreas Schuld, and Lester Quitzau & Madagascar Slim, as well as his solo projects, have all attained award status in Canada.
A multiple Canadian Juno Award winner, Bill has received international acclaim for his recordings and live performances. A mainstay on the international roots scene, life on the road is reflected in Bill's music - powerful rhythms and soulful songs, steeped in World Beat, Blues, Cajun, Celtic, Folk, Flamenco, Funk, Poetry and more...
