The Weather Station / Myrrh Remix -------

We're happy to be sending out the word that BP member Tamara Lindeman's brand new record "All of It Was Mine"

Is now available via You've Changed Records.

In celebration of this record's one week anniversary, please wander down the Bruce Trail a little further and check out a brand new remix of

The Weather Station's "Everything I Saw" by Bruce Peninsula's own Matt Cully aka Myrrh aka EONS.

Mine - The Weather Station (Myrrh Remix) by Myrrh

""I wanted to remix a track that was seemingly un-remixable; a soft, sweet folk song that wouldn't lend itself easily to new skin.While electronic at the core, I've tried to maintain the organic, earthy roots of the original while offering a whole new context... a different perspective in another dimension - MC"

Salesman

So, here it is, the last installment in the Fire Sale before we put it aside for a little while to focus on LP #2 (out October 4th). Our friends at Exploding Motor Car have made this beautiful new video for Salesman, another new song written by Matt and Misha and released exclusively as part of this web series. We hope you like it.

Huge thanks to ECM. We are honoured to have worked with them. They make our favourite videos.

Southern Souls Cover Songs Pt 3

And here it is! The final installment of our Southern Souls cover sessions just went up, making 10 videos in total. Thanks so much to Mitch for being such a champ and seeing these all through. We are very happy with them. Hope we get to do the full band real soon! Enjoy! (click on the photo to watch)

Southern Souls Cover Songs Pt 2

The second installment of our collaboration with Southern Souls has been added. Watch new videos from Neil, Leon and Kari (playing Jen Castle, Final Fantasy and Jon-Rae respectively) at southernsouls.ca

Southern Souls Cover Songs

Mitch Fillion, the man behind the brilliant Southern Souls, joined us on Toronto island a few weeks ago to film the first group of songs for a series that features each member of Bruce Peninsula taking on a song written by someone they know. Daniela played MGMT, Matt covered the Silt, Andrew played Alex Lukashevsky and Ivy took on a Skydiggers songs. Stay tuned for 6 more of these as the summer rolls on. For now, we hope you enjoy these as much as we enjoyed making them.

Fire Sale Installment # 2

Last year, a six-piece version of BP got in the van for a little tour of Michigan, Illinois and Iowa. We had a good time in Detroit and Chicago and at Knox College in Galesburg but the whole reason for the trip was to visit the fine fellows at Daytrotter.

It's a beautiful thing they have going there. Nestled atop a pizza joint in Rock Island, IL, you'd never know that the Daytrotter guys record a couple bands a day every single day at their unassuming studio. They were very inviting and patient with us, considering none of us had ever done a live-off-the-floor, get-it-right-quick taping before.

Rock Island is part of the Quad Cities, uniting with Davenport, Bettendorf and Moline. When we finished up, the DT guys pointed us over the bridge and into Iowa, where we found a casino / hotel / cruise ship that had cheap rooms. A bottle of tequila, some pizza, a little gambling and too much Wife Swap later, I can safely say it produced one of the best memories we've got.

Hope you enjoy it. Be sure to check out everything Daytrotter has to offer. You could be online for days.

Summer Time

We're gonna spend our time on docks and bikes this summer, getting reacquainted with the good parts of being in a band, so it's not going to be a jam-packed season of shows for Bruce Peninsula. However, we did just book a couple and we will be posting details very shortly. It's been a long time since our last one (all painted up as skeletons at the Horseshoe in October) so we're really looking forward to it.

Thanks to everyone that has visited the site in the last few days and to those who have passed The Swimming Song around on their Facebook and Twitters. Check back in here on April 26th for the second installment of the Fire Sale.

Oh and Small Town Murder Songs, the movie that features lots of our music is having screenings in Waterloo and Ottawa and a handful of film festivals over the next month or so. Check out the film's website or Facebook for details.

Don't forget to grease your chain before your first ride!

Ta da!

Welcome to the online home of Bruce Peninsula and the Bruce Trail Fire Sale. Our friend Ted worked tirelessly to bring you all these crazy layers and we couldn't be happier. Ted works at night so our schedules were pretty much inverted and it was tough for him to get answers out of us because we were always sleeping when he was working. Our endless thanks to him for persevering. 

Hit up the audio and video tree limbs to hear our version of The Swimming Song and stay tuned for the next installment in the series. We'll be posting that on April 26th. 

Thanks for sticking with us through the tough times. 

Here's to the good road ahead of us!
