“Rolling out of the Canadian Rockies and across the prairie Province of Alberta, The Orchard finds its sound in Canadiana. Great tunes, great guitars and great Vocals. This is a real deal, no B.S. band playing real music.” – Jim Scott (Producer)

The Orchard Bio:

Kasha Anne and Mitch Smith the singer/songwriter duo better known as The Orchard, couldn’t have picked a better title for their latest album than The Great Unknown. After making an indelible impression on Canada’s country music scene with their first two records, the Alberta natives instinctively knew heading into their third release that change was imminent.

But what would that change entail? New sounds? A new producer? A new approach to writing and recording? All of the above, as it turns out. Led by the anthemic first single “Sometimes I Wonder,” The Great Unknown is a cosmic blend of rock, country and pop. It’s a vision the pair had from the beginning of completely ignoring genre definitions and just doing what came naturally. Still, they needed a trusted hand to guide them in the studio, and there was no one better to ask than producer Jim Scott (Tedeschi Trucks Band, Marcus King Band).

The results reveal The Orchard’s true identity for the first time, a songwriting partnership, and band, able to bring together music fans of all types through their fresh and exciting sound.

With “Wanted” we were wanting to portrait a story of a couple who are getting themselves into trouble. Kind of a Bonnie and Clyde type thing. We wanted it to sound fun and exciting. Bart McKay helped us put this one together, and we are happy with how it turned out.. Crank it up!Mitch & Kasha (The Orchard)

Fresh off the heels of The Orchard’s successful COCA Showcase and their selection as the Alberta representative in the 2015 CCMA Spotlight Performance Contest, they are set to hit the road for a busy summer of shows.
