With a sweet name and even sweeter sound, Oh My Darling conjure up the right mix of emotion and elation with their unique brand of country. Prairie roots mixed with bluegrass, Appalachian old time, southern twang, and Franco-folk, makes their style a melting pot of musical languages. Infused with dynamic vocals, brilliant claw-hammer banjo, inspired fiddling, and grooving bass, their music will get your hips swinging, toes tapping, and put your heart right into their hands.
Each time Oh My Darling – Allison, Vanessa, MJ and Rosalyn - take the stage, they prove time and again why they’re captivating audiences and attracting an abundance of fans, because boy, these girls can play!
Individually, they are known as some of the hottest players on the Canadian roots scene, but there is strength in numbers, and combined, the foursome is strong as Sheffield steel.
Their self-titled debut was released in 2009 and honoured with a Western Canadian Music Award for Best Roots Album.
In 2010, they recorded a follow-up album with renowned producer Lloyd Peterson (Wailing Jenny’s, James Keelaghan). “In the Lonesome Hours” received a WCMA nomination, and earned rave reviews in the media. It also topped the national campus roots charts in 2010. Throughout the past year, Oh My Darling has played sold-out shows from coast-to-coast, and showcased at the Canadian Country Music Awards and will be appearing at Canada Day in Trafalgar Square in July. They are now enjoying a successful European tour and visit The Greystones on Tuesday 28th June, with support from
