Lost in Light: Tim Chaisson Debuts New Album in Toronto
Tim Chaisson’s newest album (his 7th since 2002) Lost in Light, was released Tuesday and immediately made an impact.
Without a single, video, or any hardcore promotion, the album rushed its way to #1 on the Canadian Country Music sales chart on iTunes, knocking Sam Hunt’s Montevallo out of the spot late Tuesday night and into Wednesday. It was a happy moment for Chaisson and MDM Recordings that made for a fun night Wednesday when everyone showed up at The Rivoli for a little album release party.
At just after 7pm the Prince Edward Island native and his band took the stage to play tracks from the new album for fans, crowdfunding supporters, and industry folk who enjoyed a little mid-week entertainment.
Here’s how the set played out…
★ Crushed
★ Cajun Moon
★ Miss Saying Goodbye
★ Bad On Me
★ Life After The War
★ I Can’t Live Without You
★ Animal
★ Loses Its Shine
★ Goodbye July
ENCORE
★ All Those Words
★ Beat This Heart (from his The Other Side album)
Since there hasn’t been a single released to radio yet, we can only guess… so here it goes – our picks for Tim Chaisson’s lead single from Lost in Light are Crushed or I Can’t Live Without You.
If you’re unfamiliar with Tim, or you’ve never had a chance to see him live, let me tell you this – he’s adorable and endearing and brings some good old fashioned east coast hospitality to the stage. Add those qualities to his talent as a songwriter, musician and singer and you end up with a package that will continue to win him new fans as he crosses the country, and oceans, to tour.
We were able to chat with Tim for a quick minute after the set and he told us that he’ll be back in Toronto at The Great Hall this spring while touring Lost in Light, and he seems excited about it. As well he should. It’s a fun record with some great storytelling songs that mix country music and east coast sounds that will have feet tapping and fans singing along.
If there was 1 true takeaway from Wednesday night’s album release party, it was this… Tim Chaisson is a talented performer who loves his new record and has some really fun songs to share with the world.
