""Another Life" Review"

"It is truly fun to watch a performer move and grow along a musical path. LENORE'S 3rd and latest cd ANOTHER LIFE continues her amazing songwriting journey. Her tunes about the elderly, hippies, parenting, poverty and love (to name a few) will capture you and make you wish you had written them. Lenore's passion for life flows into these insightful songs giving them an uplifting quality. Also, the diversity of styles, her warm vocals and some excellent production work makes ANOTHER LIFE a cd worth listening to from beginning to end. It will leave a mark on your mind and a smile in your heart.
--A candidate for 2007 folk album of the year!"

- Jim Marino, CFMU-FM. Hamilton, ON

"'Another Life' Review"

"Lenore with her new album, "Another Life," demonstrates that she has the ability to bring laughter or tears for her listeners, but far more important, her music can bring insight and thought and that is a rare thing for an artist in today's music world. "
- Norm Whitman, WYSO-FM

Bio

Canadian singer/songwriter Lenore's high energy solo performances have been attracting fans throughout the singer/songwriter scene since she began her career performing at open mics in Toronto. Her blend of folk/country/roots music creates a distinct upbeat sound but it is her unusual lyrics, so deceptively simple, that will burrow into your brain after just one listen.

"Another Life" is Lenore’s 3rd CD release and features the production talents and superb guitar work of roots veteran Paul Mills (Stan Rogers, Ron Hynes) with additional support from some of Toronto’s finest acoustic musicians. The result is an intimate collection of original songs that showcase Lenore’s unique vocal, insightful lyrics and stylistic diversity. The CD charted on college radio in both the U.S. and Canada and has just begun receiving European airplay.

Lenore has been touring since the CD release and her upbeat, highly entertaining performances have garnered her fans from Toronto to Texas. She has opened for Martyn Joseph, Cheryl Wheeler, Zoe Lewis, The Laws, Edie Carey among others, and she is just as comfortable playing large festival stages as she is performing small intimate house concerts.
