Canadian Folk Music’s Emerging Artist of the Year winner Noah Derksen follows his critically acclaimed album Sanctity of Silence with the brand-new single Through It All – a heartfelt & expressive song that beautifully showcases Derksen’s highly individual vocal style.
Hailing from the heart of the Canadian Prairies, the Winnipeg based artist wrote Through it All with Boston based Indie, Americana artist Lindsay Foote, before recording it at Toronto’s Revolution Recording studios with producer Murray Pulver (The Bros. Landreth, Crash Test Dummies). Originally recorded for Sirius XM’s Top of the Country competition, the track now gets an official release this summer.
With its tasteful guitar led arrangement, Through It All is a tale of mixed feelings experienced around relationships, in which all can seem well & yet still one feels the need to up & leave. With the lyric “We got faults & we got failures, we stumble & we fall, but still you’re the one I love through it all” Noah expresses eloquently his own personal experiences in the song, while also recognising the unfailing beauty in nature saying “we wrote this song on a painfully beautiful December morning – the kind where the sun has no business shining so bright & you forget having ever felt sorrow”.
