PK Tessmann

PK Tessmann is a fixture in the Vancouver Island indie-folk community. Her well-crafted, original songs are something of substance - a synergy of flowing lyrics, twinkling ukelele and acoustic guitar, and soul-stirring vocals. With a decade of songwriting and performance behind her, Tessmann is now celebrating the release of her brand new album Dear City. Two-time winner of Best Roots/Folk Recording at the Vancouver Island Music Awards, Tessmann's work has been described as “beguiling,” “potent, ” and “unpretentious”. Her latest work is no exception. Dear City is a collection of songs that offer a window into Tessmann's journey into marriage and motherhood. With each haunting song, she offers up her experiences of grief, hope, loss and new beginnings. Produced by Corwin Fox (Shane Koyczan, CR Avery, Miss Emily Brown) in the vibrant village of Cumberland BC, Dear City showcases Tessmann's songwriting with colourful yet subtle instrumentation. Vintage keys, bells, autoharp, cello, French horn and saxophone combined with whispered harmonies to compliment Tessmann's spirited vocals. An alumni of the Capilano College Jazz program in Vancouver BC, PK Tessmann has released two previous records, including full-length album Maybe and a self-titled EP. In addition to her two recent VIMA awards, she has garnered further VIMA nominations for Vocalist of the Year, Song of the Year and Video of the Year, and she recently took home the title of Regional Champion in the 2015 CBC Searchlight Contest.
