Artist History
Nothin’ But Trouble
Inspired by a prairie road trip, this new band was formed in May of 2002. Three music therapists and an engineer combine their diverse backgrounds and musical influences to produce the unique folk fusion sound of Nothin’ But Trouble. Originally from four different Canadian provinces, the four Calgary based band members’ combined musical influences and experience span from bluegrass to jazz to rock to folk.
Kristen McIvor, Trina Nestibo and Corry Schmelter share the vocals, and accompany their three-part harmonies with any combination of acoustic guitar, banjo, saxophone, flute, accordion and percussion. Dale Ulan provides a solid foundation for the group with a variety of styles on his upright bass, playing everything from dog-house slap to spine-tingling arco.
“Tell it like it is” originals combined with eclectic cover tunes are showcased with a sense of humour, soulful expression and a fresh attitude. Although Nothin’ But Trouble is a relatively new band, they can be found performing everywhere in and around Calgary, including backyards, house concerts, breakfast television, coffee shops and pubs. The band members frequent supportive Calgary acoustic music venues such as Jackdaws Pub and Eatery and Karma Local Arts House, and are eagerly accepting bookings and selling their taster CD.
