Laura Barrett Declares Victory

Really just passing this along from Chart (stole their headline and everything) but Laura Barrett is releasing her first full-length album (the soon to be Polaris nominated) Victory Garden on Sept. 23 via Paper Bag Records.
She was supported by a wide range of guests, including: Basia Bulat on autoharp and vocals; Randy Lee (The Bicycles, Hylozoists) on violin; Jeremy Strachan (Feuermusik) on clarinet; Lief Mosbaugh (The Hidden Cameras) on oboe and viola; and John Tielli (Metal Kites) on theremin. Hylozoist Paul Aucoin recorded and mixed Victory Garden in addition to playing the vibraphone.
Oh...also a few dates:
Aug. 14 Toronto, ON @ Hugh's Room w/Royal Wood

Aug. 16 Toronto, ON @ The Theatre Centre w/Sunparlour Players

Sept. 20 London, ON @ Victoria Park (LOLA Festival)
