Jay Malinowski (of Bedouin Soundclash) coming to Edmonton and Vancouver
15 Dec, 2009
Foundation Concerts presents two dates with Jay Malinowski, front man of popular Canadian band, Bedouin Soundclash, this coming March in Edmonton and Vancouver. Promoting his forthcoming solo release, Bright Lights and Bruises, Malinowski will be supported by Vancouver's Kinnie Starr and Edmonton's Michael Rault.
The self-produced, acoustic-based album and Malinowski's first foray into the solo world will be released on Bedouin's own Pirates Blend record label and distributed through Sony Music in Canada. Bright Lights and Bruises shows off a different side of the artist -- quieter, deeply personal and incredibly contemplative.
The result is a stunning and remarkably stirring collection of material that shows someone who's as much in touch with his feelings as he is with the craft of songwriting, and someone who's willing to take chances and lay it all on the line. From the haunting and plaintive piano ballad There's A Light -- the album's opener and first single -- to country strummers Life Is A Gun and Loving Hand, and the jangly, McCartney-esque pastoral melodicism of A Vacant Youth, Malinowski explores sonic and emotional spaces that will surprise but allure fans old and new.
