endearing records and killbeat music would like to congratulate sackville, new brunswick’s Julie Doiron on her nomination for the 2007 Polaris Music Prize For Best Canadian Album for “Woke Myself Up”
Woke Myself Up is the latest chapter in Julie Doiron’s musical career, her 8th solo album and 4th for Endearing Records. Woke Myself Up is a special album. It resonates with critics and fans alike. Featuring appearances by her Eric’s Trip band mates, the album shows an experienced, confident songwriter revisiting her musical beginnings and influences, updating them with the themes and emotions of an older, wiser performer. The album is considered by many to be her best solo work to date. Julie has just completed a Canadian and US tour with Calvin Johnson and will be spending the summer in Sackville with her three children.

Julie Doiron on Tour with Calvin Johnson
Endearing artist Julie Doiron joins K Records founder Calvin Johnson (ex-Beat Happening, Halo Benders, Dub Narcotic Soundsystem) on a tour playing intimate venues, galleries, churches and art collectives during the month of June. This tour is supporting Doiron’s January release, “Woke Myself Up”, an album detailing the great highs and terrible lows of familial beauty, intimacy and turmoil. Doiron presents a cathartic performance of this heart-wrenching record. The legendary Calvin Johnson is, of course, not to be missed.

This episode will air in Canada on Friday, February 9th, at 7pm CST on Global and later this year on ABC Disney in the United States as well as various other channels in the 30 odd countries the show is broadcast in.
