Would you like more politics with your music, or more good music with your politics? Well, here's a full ear for you, either way! With energy, insight and a great range of musical talent, Ember, et al (including collaborator Lyndell Montgomery) demonstrate any variety of genre from "hip-hop-infused politi-pop" to "sunny, glint-o'-gospel soul-funk" to "reggae-driven pop quiz" to "conscientious carnivalesque French caberet" and more. Ember is fabulous live, and this studio recording equals that vibe!

Ember Swift and her band speak their minds and their truths boldly and without fear from stages across Canada, the U.S. and Australia. Their songs shed light on issues such as globalization, consumer awareness, food politics, disengaging from capitalist greed, feminism, queer politics, racism and environmentalism.

This 2004 release on their independent record label 'Few'll Ignite Sound' weaves politics and poetics in and out of daring musical arrangements. Songs on the album range from the gorgeous to the hilarious to the political, and the band once again defies categorization. Insightful lyrics are framed in folk, jazz, punk, Middle Eastern, Spanish, pop, classical and reggae compositions.
