On November 5, 2015, Justine Vandergrift will release her best work yet with her new full length album ‘Sailor’ followed by a solo Western Canada tour. After releasing two full studio albums in 2011 and 2012, Justine retreated for an exploration of her artistry. Three years later she has proudly emerged with brand new songs and a renewed passion.
Drawing on inspiration from the likes of Patty Griffin, Bonnie Raitt and Sarah Harmer, Justine has carved her own distinguished signature sound and is as comfortable wrapping her soulful vocals around a tender melody as she is belting out gospel or the blues.
Sailor is recorded live off the floor at Riverdale Recorders in Edmonton, Alberta. Vandergrift’s vision was to record an album that captures her live performance and reflects the raw emotional honesty in her songs. She and co-producer, Harry Gregg successfully accomplished that goal with ‘Sailor’. These 9 new songs will take listeners on a journey through love, loss, yearning, letting go and acceptance.
