Together with composer/multi-instrumentalist Miles Black, Glenda writes songs that span multiple genres, from singer/songwriter and pop, to jazz and blues informed compositions.
"Another Day" is the culmination of a five year musical odyssey that has seen Glenda expand as both performer and lyricist. It draws deep from roots in all sorts of contemporary music, and returns to an oft forgotten method of recording an album...the dependence on sterling musicianship instead of inventive post production. To that end, Glenda and her band marched into Burnaby B.C's Riverside Recording Studio, and knocked off the bed tracks for this CD in two days, with overdubs, editing,and mixing in their own facility later. It should be noted that Glenda's lead vocal performances were captured with the band during the bed tracks. No digital enhancements (outside of conventions like eq, reverb, and compression) or "auto-tuning" were used in the production of her vocals.
This may qualify as too much information, but the producers wanted to put Glenda's voice and delivery on a pedestal. All too often, celebrity "singers" cannot exist outside highly invasive production environments. Glenda occupies a rarified musical strata, possessing the ability to deliver performances that defy description by conventional superlatives in almost any environment.
The combination of Glenda's voice and lyricism with Miles Black's musical artistry has yielded a prodigious output. They have written rock, blues, jazz, pop, gospel and even country music! (Visit Aimee Pettersen here at CD Baby...Miles and Glenda wrote her whole album)
"Another Day" gives the music fan a peek into the unfolding career of a superstar, and most importantly, a career built wholly on musical talent and writing of enormous depth.
"Glenda Rae cuts to your soul like a strong northern wind sweeping across the plain."
"Her rich tone bears the hardships & joys of life."
Joel Wade--Writer/Producer TV Guide Channel
"Glenda Rae has, quite simply, one of the best pure voices I've heard here, reminiscent of Annie Lennox in versatility, power and phrasing. A high-class effort a
