Bruce Peninsula also regularly features a large choir section, made up of Tamara Lindeman (The Weather Station), Ivy Mairi, Daniella Gesundheit (Snowblink) and Kari Peddle. The choir has previously included Katie Stelmanis (Austra), Casey Mecija (Ohbijou), Isla Craig, Amy Learmonth (the Youngest), Taylor Kirk (Timber Timbre) and Christienne Chesney.

History

Bruce Peninsula was formed in 2006.[1] The band's debut album, A Mountain Is a Mouth, was released in February 2009 on their own Bruce Trail Records.[3] The album was named to the preliminary longlist for the 2009 Polaris Music Prize on June 15.[4]

Their second album, the gospel-oriented Open Flames, was released in October 2011 on Hand Drawn Dracula.[5]

In 2012, the band released a 14-minute song cycle entitled Of Songs.[6] The band can also be heard on the soundtrack of the 2016 film Sleeping Giant,[7] and in an Ontario Tourism television advertisement.[8] Haverty has also composed music for film and television, including the films Hazy Little Thing and Wildhood.

The band's third full-length album, No Earthly Sound, was released in 2020.[9]
