Teresa Ennis releases her new recording: STARS, Tuesday, Nov. 10, 2009
St. John’s, Newfoundland born and raised, Nova Scotia based, singer-songwriter, Teresa Ennis releases her second CD, Stars, Tuesday, Nov. 10.
The new recording is available in stores nationally via Fontana North/Universal Music Canada as well as digitally, via MapleMusic.com.
Following in the footsteps of her debut CD, Space, released in fall 2007, Stars is an easy flowing collection of beautiful songs eloquently sung and played in the same relaxed manner they were recorded. This recording, however, is more focused on Teresa’s Celtic roots than her debut which had some strong bluegrass overtones.
Returning again to the easy atmosphere of producer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Joel e. Hunt’s Beaverbank home-based recording studio, Teresa Ennis found herself recording with the likes of Shannon Quinn (fiddle, accordion), Boyd MacNeil (Barra MacNeils), Jeff Bird (Cowboy Junkies), Glenn Coolen (MacCrimmon’s Revenge), multi-instrumentalist Darren McMullen, bassist Rheo Rochon, drummer/percussionist Sam Cino, Lewis Melville on accordion and even mixing and mastering engineer Jeff Wolpert contributed some percussion.
As with her debut, the CD was recorded between cooking and preparing meals, often with dogs sleeping on the floor nearby while the fire crackled in the woodstove and the hockey game was on the TV.
The new recording features several new original songs by Teresa and Joel, as well as some beautifully arranged and interpreted traditional selections. Highlights include: the easy opening track, The Pines, which in a subtle way celebrates the beauty of the East Coast and what it has to offer, as well as the beautiful semi-autobiographical, Out Here on the Water, inspired by real people and places. Out Here on the Water is the release’s focus track for radio. Other new originals include: Pretty Anne McGuire, Winter Slowly Passing as well as new traditional interpretations of Ireland’s Fair and Tender Ladies and the America folk song Georgie.
Maritime artist Al Tuck contributes a beautiful bilingual song to close off the recording with the disarming Small and Few.
For more detailed information regarding the song selection please follow this link:

Teresa Ennis will be scheduling live performances for the 2010 festival and theatre season.
If you work in media or radio and would like a promotional CD, more information or would like to schedule an interview with Teresa Ennis, please contact:
My new album, Stars, is going to be released in stores all across Canada this Tuesday, November 10th. Exciting times for me and the musicians that played on the album. Spread the word for me.
