Basia Bulat hails from the forest city of London, Ontario, where she found her songs and stories dangling from the trees. Her debut album Oh, My Darling was engineered and produced by Howard Bilerman (Godspeed You! Black Emperor, The Arcade Fire, upcoming British Sea Power), and will be released on Rough Trade Records in the UK and Europe on 21st May of 2007.

Using the most straightforward descriptors - jazz-inflected, orchestral folk pop with a dash of northern soul - make [Bulat’s music] sound more conventional than I'd like so instead, I'll try this. Basia Bulat sounds like springtime smiling. Her music is rich yet breezy, with a melodic enthusiasm that's nothing short of delightful. Chromewaves

A pint-sized spitfire with cornsilk hair who could play the younger sister of Dawson's Creek's Michelle Williams, with charisma to burn...The best part of Bulat's set was her remarkable, throaty voice. The singer's almost viscous, full-bodied vocals shifted to suit her disparate songs. Now Toronto Magazine

It's hard to pinpoint what makes her music so wonderful. Her Joni Mitchell-influenced folk songs have an elegant grace to them... Her band does a lovely job making the songs complete, delicately adding strings, piano and percussion to put everything together. The Torontoist
