Welcome
Terry’s new recording ‘riches and grace’ is hot off the press. Produced by Edmonton musician Mike Lent, this recording features some fine playing from some of the best players in Edmonton. It’s a real showcase of Morrison’s vocal prowess and combines a jazz sensibility with Terry’s own inimitable muscial style.
Songs From The Avenue is now out there for people to hear. This is a project that features the songs of 11 songwriters and bands from the Alberta Avenue Community in Edmonton. The songs were all written about some aspect of the neighbourhood both historical and social. Terry’s song 1942 was written as if from the viewpoint of a young woman during WWII. Edmonton was a major staging ground for troops (and remains so). The majority of whom were posted in barracks which flanked the community.
The CD has been released on Six Shooter Records
The Smithsonian Folkways has recently released an album featuring the songs of Alberta artists. Terry’s song, ‘Long Dusty Road’, from her ‘High Mileage Soul’ CD is one of the tracks included on this disc. It is a good indication of the high regard awarded to Terry Morrison as a songwriter.
The ‘Christmas Carol Project’ , a stage show that features Terry as one of the musical cast members , was filmed and co – produced by BRAVO! Watch for it becoming an annual special!
The Carol Project is like one of those tiny presents off in the corner under the tree that you almost ignore. But to do so would be a big mistake, for the true spirit of the season shines within it. Toronto Star Review
