Vocalist, songwriter, and storyteller Whitney Ross-Barris is proud to announce the release of her new album ‘Curtains of Light’. A deeply personal and sonically rich collection, the album blends jazz, choral, neo-soul, spoken word, and folk elements into a body of work that explores themes of disconnection, longing, and the fragile beauty of resilience. Woven with field recordings from Ross-Barris’s daily life, from playgrounds to thunderstorms, and featuring lush, cinematic arrangements by Grammy Award-winning multi-instrumentalist Drew Jurecka and acclaimed pianist and producer Michael Shand, ‘Curtains of Light’ showcases Ross-Barris’s unique ability to merge intimacy with grandeur. The album’s 13 tracks range from the buoyant energy of “Bourgeois Reverie” and the celebratory groove of “Bird of Paradise” to the atmospheric tenderness of “Only at Night” and the sweeping title track “Curtains of Light,” inspired by Ross-Barris’s memory of witnessing the Northern Lights as a child in Saskatchewan. Featuring an all-star cast of collaborators including Amy Peck, Rebecca Hennessy, Drew Jurecka, Kevin Fox, Lauren Falls, Ben Wittman, and a stunning vocal ensemble of Alex Samaras, Gavin Hope, Mary van den Enden, Miku Graham, Michael Shand, and Yvette Tollar, the album shimmers with creative depth and community spirit.
