JP Hoe

JP Hoe's sophomore album, Mannequin, may be named for a plastic ideal but it beats with a human pulse. The acclaimed Winnipeg-based singer/songwriter has crafted the kind of album that, to borrow a Wilco lyric, tries to break your heart. A soaring collection of cinematic epics that still burn with an intimate intensity. The six time Western Canadian Music Award nominated artist has a tremendous gift for writing songs would sound as good stripped down around a campfire as they would in a soft-seat theatre with a full orchestra. Hoe's big, bold, blue-sky voice the product of hundreds of days on the road has a lot to do with that. Hes a dyed-in-the-wool troubadour type who knows hes only as good as his last show. He's played gigs all over the world, connecting with audiences via his soul-on-sleeve lyrics, but also his down-to-earth unpretentious charm. - See more at:
