"Between Trains sounds like it could have been recorded around a crackling campfire on a midsummer night by three friends swapping tunes and passing a bottle...you might want to keep a copy in your winter-blues emergency first aid kit."-Penguin Eggs

First releases are always something special and "Between Trains" exemplifies this to the extreme. The music is authorial in nature and evokes the essence of the storyteller, but in music. Each track is formed by conscious awareness to the world and the lives it houses.
Three forces of nature meet in Bop Ensemble, a Cana...dian super-group featuring folk legends Bill Bourne and Wyckham Porteous, along with up-and-coming singer-bassist Jasmine "Jas" Ohlhauser. Combining Bourne's grit, Porteous' warmth, and Jas' energetic devilry, the three manage to catch lightning in a bottle.
Bourne, who is cut from the cloth of a classic troubadour, was called by Texas songwriting legend Tom Russell "a shining light in the North American folk and roots scene."
Porteous matches Bourne's nearly legendary status and was called by Andrew Loog Oldham "Leonard Cohen meets Harry Dean Stanton, a warm, warm, performer whose voice is like a bottle of wine who has matured into a friend."
Jasmine "Jas" Ohlhauser is the wild card of the bunch, an exuberant 25-year-old who also plays with the Edmonton band Lilys On Mars. With the addition of her dance theatrics, Bop Ensemble shows come close to performance art.
Each of the three is great on their own ... together they're something truly special.
"Between Trains" can be purchased at all major retail stores in Canada as of today.
