Website | Spotify | YouTube | Instagram Basia Bulat is a singer-songwriter living in Montreal, Canada. She offers both a distinctive voice and artistry that pulls as much from gospel and soul as it does from classic folk. In addition to her skills as a powerhouse vocalist, Bulat is an accomplished multi-instrumentalist, recording and performing on electric guitar, piano, autoharp, ukulele, bass and charango. Her talent has also been recognized at scale: her songs have been adapted for major performances with symphony orchestras, and she has been invited to perform at prestigious tributes to Leonard Cohen, Daniel Lanois, Nick Cave, and The Band. Since releasing her debut in 2007, she has shared the stage with artists like St Vincent, Sufjan Stevens, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, The National, Michael Kiwanuka, Daniel Lanois, Beirut, Destroyer, US Girls, Jim James and more. She’s been featured on NPR’s Tiny Desk Concerts, performed on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert and Later with Jools Holland, and received support from The Needle Drop, The New York Times and more. Bulat is a three-time Polaris Music Prize finalist and has been nominated for five JUNO Awards. Her first two albums, the folk-music-tinted Oh, My Darling and Heart of my Own were recorded in analogue with punk-rock producer Howard Bilerman; Tall Tall Shadow, exploring friendship and grief, was made with Mark Lawson; Good Advice—a break-up album—and Are You in Love? were produced in Kentucky and Joshua Tree (respectively) with My Morning Jacket frontman Jim James. Basia’s last album The Garden, reimagining 16 of her catalogue songs through string arrangements by Owen Pallett, Paul Frith, and Zou Zou Robidoux, was a critical success. Her evolving discography showcases a remarkable versatility, solidifying her place as a singular voice in contemporary music. Her new album Basia’s Palace, mixed by Tucker Martine (Beth Orton, The National, Neko Case), and with string arrangements by Grammy-nominated composer Drew Jurecka (Dua Lipa, Metric, Alvvays), is set to be released February 21, 2025.
