The Wilderness of Manitoba - Shift New album Between Colours, out September 16, 2014. Between Colours showcases an explosion of strength with Whitwham and vocalist, guitarist, and violinist Amanda Balsys sharing lead vocals, and bassist Wes McClintock leading a more rhythmic bottom end. Recorded at Revolution Recording in Toronto with producer Joe Dunphy, the album fully embraces all the studio has to offer. To address the wider range of dynamics in the songs, drummers Tom Bona, Marito Marques, and Howie Beck were brought into the sessions. Other guests included Michael Phillip Wojewoda (Rheostatics) on theremin and Alex Lifeson (Rush) with a signature guitar solo. The expanding instrumentation and layered guitar and synth effects combine to create one-listen pop hooks and adventurous sonic exploration.
