Bio
FREDERICK SQUIRE SINGS SHENANDOAH AND OTHER POPULAR HITS is the second record from Canada's favourite elusive songwriter, and the latest from Blue Fog Recordings, a small Canadian label with great taste. The album was written and recorded quickly, and already aging to perfection well before the release of Squire's 2010 publicly admired debut, MARCH 12. If MARCH 12 was the stranger who gave you the time, then FREDERICK SQUIRE SONGS SHENANDOAH AND OTHER POPULAR HITS will explain the clock. "Shenandoah" is a traditional folk ballad of obscure origins. Echoing this classic narrative form, Squire leads the listener through forgotten moral territory with a set of exceptionally written songs primarily about forgiveness. In order to properly convey the deceivingly complex nature of this basic emotional theme, Squire sat in one chair, and using two microphones, recorded three instruments – vocals, guitar, and pump organ. Frederick Squire has been active in the Canadian music community for a number of years, initially as co-founder/songwriter of the beloved, now defunct, east coast rock band Shotgun & Jaybird (2003-08). Frederick has been found collaborating live and on record with Calm Down It's Monday, Mount Eerie, Daniel (Romano), Fred & Julie (Doiron), and most recently with Kate Maki. -
