BASIA BULAT
‘OH, MY DARLING’ AUSTRALIAN PROMO TOUR
Basia Bulat hails from the forest city of London, Ontario, where she found her songs and stories dangling from the trees. Her debut album Oh, My Darling was engineered and produced by Howard Bilerman (Godspeed You! Black Emperor, The Arcade Fire, British Sea Power), and was released in Australia through Rough Trade/Remote Control last year. Basia has begun bringing her unique blend of folk and chamber pop to audiences across Canada and the UK and she’ll be coming over to play her very first shows in the Australia this June.
Basia’s songs are infused with sweet ragtime piano melodies, tender-hearted string arrangements, and a voice that has been compared to Elyse Weinberg and Leslie Feist. Don’t miss Basia Bulat as she performs three intimate shows in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane next month during the ‘Oh, My Darling Australian Promo Tour.

Using the most straightforward descriptors - jazz-inflected, orchestral folk pop with a dash of northern soul - make [Bulat’s music] sound more conventional than I'd like so instead, I'll try this. Basia Bulat sounds like springtime smiling. Her music is rich yet breezy, with a melodic enthusiasm that's nothing short of delightful.
- Frank Yang, Chromewaves
A pint-sized spitfire with cornsilk hair who could play the younger sister of Dawson's Creek's Michelle Williams, with charisma to burn...The best part of Bulat's set was her remarkable, throaty voice. The singer's almost viscous, full-bodied vocals shifted to suit her disparate songs.
-Sarah Liss, Now Toronto Magazine
It's hard to pinpoint what makes her music so wonderful. Her Joni Mitchell-influenced folk songs have an elegant grace to them... Her band does a lovely job making the songs complete, delicately adding strings, piano and percussion to put everything together.
- Mike Warner, The Torontoist
