Canadian Country recording artist Justin Fancy is set to release his sophomore album, “Whiskey & Me,” on September 29th. The album showcases Fancy’s passion for storytelling and his authentic East Coast charm, with every lyric and melody resonating with his audience.
Hailing from Conception Bay South, Newfoundland, Fancy combines classic country songwriting with his own contemporary sound. He used to worry about putting too much of himself into his songwriting, but he soon realized that authenticity is the key to creating a strong bond with his listeners. “The best country music is raw and emotional, and authenticity is its beating heart,” Fancy explains.
“Whiskey & Me” is the follow-up to Fancy’s 2021 debut album, “Sure Beats a Good Time,” which earned him multiple awards, including “Country Artist of the Year” and “Rising Star of the Year” at the Music NL Awards. The album also received recognition at the East Coast Music Awards and Music NL Awards in 2022.
The latest single from “Whiskey & Me,” titled “Go Easy,” sets the tone for the album. In this mid-tempo track, Fancy masterfully tells the story of an uncertain relationship and the bitter pill of an impending farewell. The album also includes previously released singles such as “Lie,” a powerful break-up anthem that confronts the dissolution of a relationship. “Lie” was produced by Fancy and Clint Curtis, with Grammy Award winner Greg Wells serving as the Executive Producer.
“Whiskey & Me” is a collection of songs that showcases Fancy’s unwavering commitment to his craft. Each heartfelt lyric and captivating melody shines through, capturing raw emotions and resonating with listeners. It serves as a timeless reminder of the power of authenticity in storytelling through song.
In October, Justin Fancy will have the opportunity to share his music with live audiences as he performs as the direct support for Canadian Country superstar George Canyon. He will be performing five shows across Newfoundland, including St. John’s, Gander, Grand Falls, Cornerbrook, and Stephenville.
