The project Leaf Rapids is Keri Latimer’s (of Juno-winning band Nathan) opportunity to croon about vultures circling their prey, barbershop stabbings, and love letters from smallpox quarantines in her disconcertingly sweet voice. Leaf Rapids’ sound has been described as ‘Cinematic Folk’ and includes the eerie sound of the theremin. Add in a stellar band - Chris Dunn (Ridley Bent) on guitar, Devin Latimer on bass, and Joanna Miller (Scott Nolan, Corin Raymond) on drums and backup vocals - and you’ve got a sonic treat not to be missed. Their latest album, Citizen Alien, was released in May 2019 to critical acclaim and has been charting steadily on the Canadian National Earshot Roots/Blues Chart with the number one position for June and July. In 2019 Leaf Rapids toured Germany and the Netherlands and performed at seven Canadian summer music festivals.
