Garnet has recently released his a new CD "All That Is" which is special
collection of some of Garnet's most requested material of the past years.
The CD is getting great airplay on CBC and Folk Radio in the U.S.
"I have found strength and comfort in his songs. This is good and rich and
big music. Welcome one and all. Come on in. Get down." - Greg Brown - (An
excerpt from Greg's liner note for ' All That Is')
"A brilliant songwriter. One of the major talents of our time." Boston Globe
"The greatest interpreter and vocalist performing in the contemporary folk
scene." Sing Out! Magazine
Hailed by the Boston Globe as a "charismatic performer and singer", Garnet
is a man with a powerful physical presence - close to six and a half feet
tall - with a voice to match. With his "smooth, dark baritone" (Washington
Post) his incredible range, and thoughtful, dramatic phrasing, Garnet is
widely considered by fans and critics alike to be one of the finest singers
anywhere. His music, like the man himself, is literate, passionate, highly
sensitive, and deeply purposeful. Cinematic in detail, his songs "give
expression to the unspoken vocabulary of the heart" (Kitchener Waterloo
Record). An optimist at heart, Garnet sings extraordinary songs about people
who are not obvious heroes and of the small victories of the everyday. As
memorable as his songs, his over-the-top humour and lightning-quick wit
moves his audience from tears to laughter and back again.
Thanks for reading this. Please pass this along to your friends.
