January: News, Tour, Road Diary

Searson is Erin, Heather and Colleen Searson, three multi-talented sisters that play a variety of instruments and are all expert step dancers. Piano, organ, fiddle, tenor guitar and bass are all highlighted in their live performances. Acclaimed drummers and percussionists round out the live shows. SEARSON have garnered much critical acclaim from musicians and audiences alike. SEARSON displays hints to Country-Blues style melodies while effortlessly incorporating Ottawa Valley style fiddling into their live shows.

In 2011, SEARSON toured throughout Canada, the U.S., Ireland, Germany, Denmark and headlined one of the largest music festivals in Europe at Festival Ortiguiera, Spain.
Searson will release their sixth original album in the Winter of 2012, 16 tracks of both vocal and instrumental stylings.

"Although the audience was barely reserved with the first two groups and showered the musicians with applause, it went off with the Canadian group SEARSON. The spectators were carried away by the cool rhythms, the roaring percussion, the funky....electric bass sounds. Above all, Colleen Searson turned out to be a true devil's violinist. She played her fiddle so that the bow threatened to glow."
