Episode 43: Ally Corbett (Singer Songwriter/Multi Instrumentalist/Touring Musician with The Mahones & more)

We're back at it again with the sonic white vans, friends. That's a tik tok reference from 2016. I try to stay hip.  I hope you enjoy this lovely interview with singer songwriter and side player Ally Corbett. Ally knows everyone and they all think she is awesome. Ally Corbett is a folk singer-songwriter from St. John's, NL who is now based in Kitchener, Ontario. A versatile fiddler and seasoned performer, it is Ally's artistry as a songwriter and storyteller that can silence a room. Spinning melodies that linger long after they are sung, her heartfelt lyrics have garnered her comparisons to John Prine and Daniel Johnston. Ally Corbett's first solo EP, "What's in It for You?" was released in June 2022 and it's a humdinger. Ally tours regularly and plays accordion for The Mahones and sometimes sits in with the country music collective residency called The Empty Glasses at the Rivoli in Toronto, Ontario. We chatted about a great many musical things and I hope you allowed your ears steer you to peace and kindness.  Follow Ally on Instagram or check out her website for more info.My new album "Geographics" is out now on all platforms. You can buy the digital, cd and vinyl versions of the album on my bandcamp page, (which helps me greatly) but I understand that cash is tight all over the map, so you can also order a five dollar Geographics sticker. 5 beans! This album is really special to me (as my friends Melissa Payne and Charles Austin played all over it) and I hope you'll come along for the supersonic ride.
