The Be Good Tanyas

The Be Good Tanyas are a Canadian folk music group whose rootsy sound has been serenading fans since their formation in the late 1990s. Comprising Frazey Ford, Trish Klein, and Samantha Parton, the trio first came together in Vancouver, British Columbia. They bonded over a shared love for traditional Americana, country, and blues, interwoven with their own contemporary influences. Their evocative harmonies and instrumental prowess quickly set them apart in the indie folk scene, and their debut album, "Blue Horse" in 2001, was met with critical acclaim, establishing a dedicated fan base enamored with their organic and heartfelt sound.

Over the years, The Be Good Tanyas have maintained a relatively low profile, yet their impact on the folk and roots community has been significant. Their discography includes several full-length albums such as "Chinatown" (2003) and "Hello Love" (2006), which further showcased their ability to craft compelling, soulful music that resonates with authenticity. While their release frequency has slowed, their compilation album "A Collection (2000 - 2012)" serves as a testament to their enduring appeal. Despite periods of inactivity due to individual members' health issues and solo pursuits, The Be Good Tanyas have left an indelible mark on the tapestry of modern folk music, as evinced by timeless tracks like "Scattered Leaves" and "It’s Not Happening."
