Vetch

简介

Vetch has never had much patience with the genre thing. Even when Vetch meant Kora Woolsey, it was difficult to come up with a category that fit the mix of folk, blues, and jazz that went into her songwriting. Then it became a duo with a trumpet player, then a trio when the trombone player joined. Since they’ve added bass and drums and bought a keyboard, the list of influences extends from dixie to country to funk to motown to power-pop to indie-rock. They even do a tango. Call it indie or call it alternative (the category in which the last album was nominated at the ECMAs)-call it whatever you want; the band’s about music, and it puts on as good a show at a university pub as at a jazz festival. Kora began as a singer-songwriter, touring with Juno-winner Julie Doiron, opening for Genie-winner Oh Susanna, Veda Hille and ECMA winners Sol. She collaborated with Isaac and Blewett, Brent Mason, and members of Hot Toddy, and she showcased at the Junos and the ECMAs. She comes from a family of folk musicians, received training in bebop vocals in Montreal, and has played a host of instruments. Matte Robinson originally joined her on trumpet, and later on keyboards and vocals. They clicked and morphed the band into a duo, showcasing at the Nashville New Music Conference, the ECMA sneak peek showcase, and Canadian Music Week. Their collaboration as a duo lives on in their work for film; they have three film projects under their collective belt, including the feature-length original Music for the Film Margaret and Deirdre, and they’ve appeared on a CBC Roundup special about couples who work together.
