Revered Canadian songwriter Stephen Fearing and the award-winning Scandinavian indie-folk band The Sentimentals share a mutual passion for crafting beautiful melodies and dynamic musical interplay that mesmerize audiences night after night. Their combined admiration for classic Tin Pan Alley songwriting, infused with innovative soundscapes, yields a unique mode of expression that is both authentic and original.
Since their partnership began in 2018, Fearing and The Sentimentals have ignited stages across Europe and Canada with annual performances that captivate audiences. This dynamic collaboration shines on Fearing’s 2022 album ‘Vejpoesi’ (Danish for ‘Road Poems’), where The Sentimentals’ elegant accompaniment weaves around Fearing’s haunting lyrics and melodies. Recorded over three days in Maskinhallen, a theatre in Frederikshavn, Denmark, these sessions showcase The Sentimentals’ remarkable ability to shed new light on Fearing's seasoned material, delivering a sound that is both unique and transformative.
By blending their strengths, Stephen Fearing and The Sentimentals have crafted a musical expression characterized by a willingness to take risks. Their collaborative efforts have not only produced captivating recordings and live performances but have also set a new standard for blending traditional and experimental elements in the roots-music genre, paving the way for emotionally charged and exhilarating compositions.
