Will McGuirk January 16, 2019

Pickering-raised, Nashville-based alt-country singer/songwriter, Lindi Ortega, will release, on Jan 25 2019, an instrumental version of ‘Liberty’, her widely acclaimed album inspired by the soundtracks of the spaghetti Western genre, which was released March 2018.

The first single from ‘Liberty: Piano Songbook’, “In The Clear” is now available. The track is cinematic and evocative, one can imagine Garth Hudson in the corner of a dusty saloon, slats of light on the keys. Ortega teamed up with Liberty producer Skylar Wilson and multi-instrumentalist Robbie Crowell for Piano Songbook. Its Crowell on piano on “In The Clear.”

Beginning February 5, Ortega will be touring dates in Canada with Terra Lightfoot and Begonia and on into the USA with special guests TBA.
