简介

With 15 albums under his belt, Craig Cardiff is used to putting out a lot of new music. But this November, he’s doing something he’s never done before – releasing a two albums at once. On Nov. 19, the Arnprior-based folk singer will release Love Is Louder (Than All This Noise) Part 1 + 2, featuring louder, full-band versions of some songs and gentler, stripped-down versions of others. “I didn’t realize it at first, but this collection of songs is just really to help people be OK and to let them know to just wait until tomorrow, stay here and push on through,” he says. “Every song has that kernel of hope and joy, even if it’s not apparent at first.” During the recording, Cardiff was pushed outside his comfort zone often by producers Ben Leggett (Faraway Neighbours, Ben Hermann) and Andre Wahl (Luke Doucet, Hawksley Workman), who challenged him to make an album unlike anything he’s done before. It’s the same team that produced Floods and Fires, the album that earned Cardiff a nomination for a 2012 Juno Award for Roots and Traditional Album of the Year: Solo and a Canadian Folk Music Award nomination as 2012 Contemporary Singer of the Year. And like Floods and Fires, Cardiff’s fans had a lot to do with the creation of this album, as 375 people contributed nearly $11,500 to the making of Love Is Louder (Than All This Noise) through indiegogo this summer. Hailed by Gordon Lightfoot as a “songwriter who needs to be heard,” Cardiff is known not only for his musical style, but also for the close connection he has with his fans. Armed with an extensive catalogue of songs, his Book of Truths, sharp wit and soft voice, Cardiff makes it a point to keep the relationship with his fans personal, inviting and accepting any opportunity to make his audience as much a part of the performance as he is.
