The Guilt and the Shame: Tales of the Canadian West
No Video
The Guilt & The Shame : tales of the the Canadian west is a collection of Spoken Word by Calgary artist Kris Demeanor. Exposing daily realities - from being distracted during a game of tennis in south Calgary to getting cold cuts at the neighborhood meat store, Demeanor cleverly balances his musicality and knack for the word. Brigitte Dajczer: violin. Peter Moller: drums, weird samples and effects, vocals. Kirk Miles: drywall contractor on track 2. Ben Ross: Ronnie on track 3. Ellen Close, Onalea Gilbertson, Brigitte von Rothenberg: gang of girls on track 3. Wilf Wenzel: dad on track 4. Patrick Close, Brock Geiger, Sam Harrison, Harrison Wood: little assholes on track 4. Ellen Close: disenchanted wife on track 6. Teekay(Dragonfli Empire): vocals on track 9. Kris Demeanor: guitar, vocals. Mixed by Peter Moller. Mastered by Brock Skywalker. Kris Demeanor was born in Calgary, Alberta, Canada right about the time of the first moon landing, the son of a Swedish beauty queen and a German General Proficiency award winner. He's a songwriter and performer who writes and sings about the funny, dark, absurd, maddening, and the joyful for people who like to think, dance, laugh, cry and party. Kris has put out six CDs of original music, a couple of award winning videos, created and performed for the theatre, and toured clubs and folk festivals around Canada, Australia and Europe, both solo and with his Crack Band. His music draws on classic folk story telling, spoken word/rap, and shamelessly hooky pop, which both complicates things for all involved and makes them more interesting. Kris loves his fellow Canadian songwriters, and has toured and recorded with the likes of Geoff Berner, Carolyn Mark, Nathan, Ford Pier, Dave Lang, Veda Hille, Wendy McNeill and Kim Barlow.
