Jason CollettMusician Jason Collett, who began writing to try to escape the boredom of the suburb of Bramalea, Ontario where he grew up, and logged time in Toronto bands before going on to craft two full-length albums (1999’s Chrome Reflections and 2001’s Bitter Beauty) prior to joining the Arts & Crafts family in 2003. Collett, who has also toured and recorded as part of A&C labelmates and indie faves Broken Social Scene, has always penned songs with a poet’s knack for reflection and a journalist’s eye for detail. A timeless quality permeates his latest Here’s to Being Here, which not only allows listeners a peek into the songwriter’s thoughts, but also a glimpse into the everyday human emotions that bind us. Here’s to Being Here is the sound of a seasoned songsmith fully coming into his own signature sound, redefining the contemporary guitar-based singer-songwriter framework for the current genre-blurring musical landscape. As tuneful as they are poetic, these masterful songs of hope in an age of disillusionment stick in your head as firmly as they capture your heart. Speaking at Music to your Ears
