KEELES
Originally written on the piano and brought to life in a highly collaborative studio environment, Amanda Keeles' "Saving Grace" is the stunning third single from Keeles' upcoming debut album "Can't Stop Me Now". Recorded at MCC Recording Studio's, Calgary AB, and produced by Grammy and CCMA multi nominated Johnny Gasparic. Keeles collaborates once again by Juno and CCMA award winner on bass player Chris Byrne (The Road Hammers), CCMA nominated Keith Floen on keyboards and Therry Lawson on harmony (The Travelling Mabels), Juno and CCMA nominated Joe MacIntyre on drums (Duane Steele) and Johnny Gasparic on lead guitar.
Uniting classic Country influences with modern instrumentation, "Saving Grace" blends Pop sensibilities with a dash of Rock to create a song that both tells a story, and evokes the feeling that reminiscing about a past love brings. "Saving Grace" opens with just acoustic guitar and drums, and quickly builds to include a striking, hard-to-forget electric guitar riff that flows throughout the song. - Bad Parade
